RE: [hlcoders] Vac
A number of admins on the hidden forums found that rolling back their srcds files allowed them to run secured servers - though I'm not sure if VAC is running in a complete sense or if it's just indicating a false secure status in the server browser, I can provide a link to 'rolled back' linux files if anyone wants them for testing. Could someone at valve comment on the official situation regarding VAC and third party mods? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Charles Solar Sent: 12 July 2006 02:25 To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Vac -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Well thats what I thought too, but then I created a new mod from scratch, and copied the dods's dlls into it.

Loading the minidump in windbg shows the assert coming out of client+0x67db62, so that would be your code (perhaps it comes from one of the libraries that you link with, in particular the VGUI2 one?) The call is inside the SolveTraverse() VGUI2 logic so it is applying scheme settings, doing the OnThink() calls and working out dialog positioning on the screen (which is separate to the rendering pass).

RE: [hlcoders] Vac
That's because the dlls need to be instrumented with VAC calls. Like all fileio and stuff, go through vac. So you need to actually add support for it, into the dlls.

[hlcoders] Vac
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hi guys, I asked this question a while back and didn't get a response. I am wondering how I am to go about getting vac enabled on my game servers. Do I have to talk to valve, or set something up code wise. I am not completly sure, but I look at other mods and it seems that only a very few amount of servers actually have vac enabled so I don't really know. Any information helps.

Re: [hlcoders] sin -- valve? ritual?
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] That's whole point though isn't it? If you own the game then you'll get to use that content where as if you don't own the game, what right do you have to use the assests? So if you make a mod using a couple of different Games contents, ie. HL2 and Sin, both of which can be mounted easier than say extracting and recompiling RO stuff for use in HL2, then wouldn't it make sense that at the VERY least you'd be required to own both games. I'm not a legal expert, hell I'm not even a legal novice, but I'd imagine that common sense would prevail here, and that would be : If you don't own the game or your clients won't own the game, don't use that games content. :D Just my 2 cents -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
