Re: [hlcoders] Is there an easy way to get an entity list client side?
Thanks - had just found it :^)
I'm betting this is the basis for what I want to do - i'll just have to do my
own filtering by ent name, distance from query point, etc.
C_BaseEntityIterator iterator;
C_BaseEntity *pEnt;
while ( (pEnt = iterator.Next()) != NULL )
{
pEnt-Simulate();
}

this is a server side thingey, so no luck.

like it would be a good code example/model, but it doesn't seem to be
actually
implemented anywhere in the SDK (which makes me think it's non-trivial).

[hlcoders] Command to Dip Gun
Hi!
I am trying to find the correct command to dip the
gun, like when you aim at a firendly NPC.
The reason is when you sprint, the gun should not be
used.
I am also looking to try and force holster the gun if
the diping wont work.
What i have done so far is
In basehlcombatweapon_shared.cpp
CBaseHLCombatWeapon::WeaponShouldBeLowered i have
added the concommand
ConVar nd_sprint_gun( nd_sprint_gun, 0,
FCVAR_CHEAT );
Over in my sprint function I have done this
if( pPlayer-IsSprinting() )
{
static bool bNDSprint = false;
if( bNDSprint )
{
// Show gun
// We stoped runing
cvar-FindVar(nd_sprint_gun)-SetValue(0);
}
else
{
// Hide Gun
// Sprint away
cvar-FindVar(nd_sprint_gun)-SetValue(1);
DevMsg(My gun should be lowered\n);
}
bNDSprint = !bNDSprint;
//check if the gun is down or not
if (cvar-FindVar(nd_sprint_gun)-GetInt() ==
1);//is it down?
else(
cvar-FindVar(nd_sprint_gun)-SetValue(0));//well
bing it up
}
Now if i use another command, like mat_fullbright -
the convar works - but this convar wont drop my gun -
infact i end up crashing in the lower state statment.
The guns i'm working with are custom guns, all but the
machinegun, that comes from hl2 - do i need to tell
the modlers to add an animation event to them for the
diping to occur?
Any help is much wanted
Thanks

I dunno why your using a variable. In your weapon base class just use
pPlayer-IsSprinting(). Tell your animators to create a start_sprint, and a
idle_sprint animation; setup your code to support this. Disable attacks
while sprinting (PrimaryAttack/SecondaryAttack, come to mind).
*cough (nasty cold)*
//also, probably best to do the following (why waste the cycles?)...
ConVar nd_sprint_gun;
nd_sprint_gun.GetInt();
//instead of
cvar-FindVar(nd_sprint_gun)

Re: [hlcoders] engine-ClientCommand() Usage?
You'll notice from public/edict.h that the edict_t is the engine's internal representation of an entity. Basically, the ClientCommand() call is asking for which entity to masquerade the command has having come from. dlls/point_devshot_camera.cpp:113 has a very clear example of this command's usage: engine-ClientCommand( pPlayer-edict(), developer 0 ); ** On a related note, it would be good to search the source yourself for examples of how to use commands like this before asking. (That's how I came up with this particular example.) You'll always run the risk of dredging up those SOBs that don't like answering nub questions if you don't.

RE: [hlcoders] Crash in release mode only AND Changing the viewports
The most common cause of crashes in release mode but not in debug are due to variable initializations. In debug mode all variables are initialized to '0', while in release mode they do not have a default initialization value. The most common cause of these crashes is failing to properly initialize variables. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeff Fearn Sent: Wednesday, April 26, 2006 7:09 PM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Crash in release mode only AND Changing the viewports On 4/26/06, ChromeAngel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Crash in release mode only AND Changing the viewports scheme Reply-To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com ChromeAngel wrote: 2 Issues, I doubt they are related : Issue 1) I've got my HL2DM mod running sweet and lovely and i'm about ready to send it out to my testers, so I compiled in in release mode, only to find it causes a crash in HL2.exe when I spawn on my listen server.
