Re: [hlcoders] CUtlVector crash ( screenshake )
Your point about #3 does indeed look fishy. I'm not sure why they're calling
the destructor on their own anyways.
Try this:
// Retire this shake.
void *shake = m_ShakeList.Element( nShake );
m_ShakeList.FastRemove( nShake );
delete shake;
continue;

Subject: [hlcoders] CUtlVector crash ( screenshake )
Hi List!
So, we're finally out there in closed beta. One of the most annyoing issues
is a client side crash. The call stack doesn't say all that much, but still:
it always happens in the Purge command in the destructor of
CUtlVector:
template< typename T, class A >
inline CUtlVector::~CUtlVector()
{
Purge();
}
more precisely, in the CUtlVector< screenshake_t * > . [ There's only one of
those, in CViewEffects ].
Now, some questions:
1) any idea why this happens? [ had to ask :D ]
2) if no, any idea on how to debug?
3) Is the following normal? :
// Retire this shake.
delete m_ShakeList.Element( nShake );
m_ShakeList.FastRemove( nShake );
continue;
where:
template< typename T, class A >
void CUtlVector::FastRemove( int elem ) {
Assert( IsValidIndex(elem) );
Destruct( &Element(elem) );
if (m_Size > 0)
{
memcpy( &Element(elem), &Element(m_Size-1), sizeof(T) );
--m_Size;
}
}
and
template
inline void Destruct( T* pMemory )
{
pMemory->~T();
#ifdef _DEBUG
memset( pMemory, 0xDD, sizeof(T) ); #endif }
Concretely: how come it is allowed to first delete a pointer, and afterwards
still call the destructor on it? Is that not dangerous? [ Probably a c++
finesse I'm missing ] Shake works fine most of the time though ( I tried
with the console cheat command ), so it's not a reproducible crash yet - but
happens very often in online games.
Thanks in advance for any lights shed in the darkness!

VPhysicsInitNormal is not guaranteed to return non-null. It can fail for a
variety of reasons. Take a look at CBaseEntity::VPhysicsInitNormal in
baseentity_shared.cpp to see.

Re: [hlcoders] ConVar assignment breaks game
Except he said that "cvar->FindVar("r_decals")->GetString()" is working.
Perhaps you're changing the value too early and then what you have in
config.cfg overrides it? After setting it, check that it has been set by
printing the value and then maybe place a data breakpoint to see when the
value changes again.

Okay, seems like it broke the game because I made the assignment to a
global variable, although I still don't understand what the problem with
that is. So if I assign it to a member variable of my panel resp. my
property sheet class, at least the game remains functional. The problem
still remains though that I can't change the value of the variable.

I posted this yesterday but from the wrong email account... so if it
double posts my apologies.
Long time C++ programmer - relatively new to the Source SDK.
With the KeyValues class... is there a way to read in a Vector or
Angle? For instance I see a lot of:
MySetting
{
"x" "0.4"
"y" "-2.5"
"z" "1.0"
}
when it would be easier to use:
MySetting
{
"offset_vector" 0.4 -2.5 1.0"
}
It wouldn't be difficult to break this value apart if you read it in as
a string - but if valve has already included the functionality - no need
to reinvent the wheel.
Thank you for your patience.

Re: [hlcoders] How to find SteamID
It can, but it means the same thing. Ex: STEAM_1 is used in L4D(2) and STEAM_0 in every other game afaik. What do you mean if AccountID is an uneven number? Do you mean odd number or fractional number? AccountID should always be a whole number and taking mod 2 of that should only yield 0 or 1. 0 for even AccountID, 1 for odd AccountID. When dividing by 2 when calculating Y, yes you should truncate any decimal but "(AccountID mod 2) / 2" is not the correct calculation to do so. Try: Y = CLng(AccountID / 2) -Original Message- From: hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Michael Bang Sent: Tuesday, January 05, 2010 9:21 AM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlcoders] How to find SteamID Ah okay - so a SteamID can't start with anything but a zero?

Re: [hlcoders] How to find SteamID
No examples for VB6, but if I were doing it, I'd make a separate C++ DLL with an exported function that gives me what I want and use VB6 to call that. Steamclient.dll does export some functions, but nothing with what you want. Everything else is in an interface and working with that in VB6 will be impossible. -Original Message- From: hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Michael Bang Sent: Monday, January 04, 2010 2:51 PM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlcoders] How to find SteamID Thanks a lot!

Re: [hlcoders] How to find SteamID
I was going to say the same thing, but then didn't because the
implementation of the Render function for CSteamID is not included in the
SDK so he'd end up adding the same code anyways.
I will recommend "& 0x01" instead of "% 2" and ">> 1" instead of "/ 2"
though the compiler probably does that for you anyways.

Re: [hlcoders] How to find SteamID
Well as long as we're coming up with alternatives: - Read HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\Steam\LastGameNameUsed - Enumerate HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\Steam\Users for a matching friends\PersonaName value - The keys under Users are account IDs. You can use them to get a SteamID. Infallible? Hardly. But it's the best out-of-game, no-steam-dlls solution I could come up with besides mucking around in the blob file. If you know where Steam is installed (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\Steam\SteamPath), you can load steamclient.dll and get the SteamID easy.

Re: [hlcoders] client side grame frame
It's not that easy. You have to do more than define a function. You'll need
to get a reference to the thing that implements IBaseClientDLL (find
gHLClient or ask the client dll for CLIENT_DLL_INTERFACE_VERSION) and use
something like Sourcehook to hook the vtable function.

void IBaseClientDLL::FrameStageNotify(ClientFrameStage_t curStage){

Re: [hlcoders] Change default demo directory and move demos after creation
Uh, wait. If you're just moving a file, why would you use "system" and not the rename function from stdio.h. Also, I'm pretty sure valve's filesystem interface provides a move function. -Original Message- From: hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlcoders-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Grash Sent: Wednesday, November 18, 2009 8:47 AM To: Discussion of Half-Life Programming Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Change default demo directory and move demos after creation I feel real dirty suggesting this.

That sounds like a knightmare, and would likely take several months. Does anyone have any better suggestions on how to deal with: * A crash where the call stack ONLY shows a memory address? Not even any mention of a dll. This is our most common crash, and happens 1-2 times a day on each server. * One pointing to __RTDynamicCast in server.dll, with nothing to say WHICH cast caused issues? And if its a dynamic cast, then ... it shouldn't crash if it fails? This has only come up once, admittedly. * Another crash pointing at this line in Physics_RunThinkFunctions: CBaseEntity **list = (CBaseEntity **)stackalloc( sizeof(CBaseEntity *) * listMax ); I'd guess that could potentially be a stack overflow?

Re: [hlcoders] Getting access to change m_flStepSoundTime
m_flStepSoundTime is in the DataDescMap. Use GetDataDescMap on the player
entity to get the datamap and then recurse through it until you find a type
description with the fieldname of m_flStepSoundTime. Once you have the type
description, the offset is just type->fieldOffset[TD_OFFSET_NORMAL].
Example code:
void RecurseDataMap( datamap_t* datamap )
{
if(datamap->baseMap) RecurseDataMap(datamap->baseMap);
for(int i = 0; i < datamap->dataNumFields; i++)
{
typedescription_t *type = &datamap->dataDesc[i];
if(type->fieldType != FIELD_VOID)
{
int offset = type->fieldOffset[TD_OFFSET_NORMAL];
// do stuff here
// type->fieldName is the variable name
// check and see if it's m_flStepSoundTime or whatever you
// want and then save the offset
// then you can do something like:
// type *name = (type *)(((unsigned int)pPlayer)+(offset));
// *name = newvalue;
if(type->fieldType == FIELD_EMBEDDED)
{
if(type->td) RecurseDataMap(type->td);
}
}
}
}

Thanks so much, I appreciate the help. I think in a worse case scenario the
function that actually plays the sound could be "hooked" from the vtable, of
course I would have to learn how to do this :P

I don't think there's a clean way for a mod to do this.
I think you could probably twiddle the sv_footsteps value from the
plugin, but you'd have to be able to do two things:
1) Get called just before a certain user's CUserCmds are read and
processed
2) Set the value of sv_footsteps on the server only. To do this, you'd
need to be able to temporarily remove the FCVAR_REPLICATED flag from the
convar from the plugin, otherwise you would flood all players with the
changes sv_footsteps value, which you wouldn't want most likely. This
would imply that there's a second call just after CUserCmd's are read
and processed, allowing you to restore state
This still wouldn't solve the problem of turning off predicted footsteps
since they would depend on the value of the replicated sv_footsteps
ConVar.
Anyway, it might be easier for us to add some kind of "Enable Footsteps"
API to the plugin interface. I'll pass this along to Alfred for
consideration.

For a mod, you can (in order of preference)
1. add accessor methods to CBaseEntity
(SetStepSoundTime/GetStepSoundTime)
2. make m_flStepSoundTime a public: data member
3. make whatever is modifying it a "friend" to CBaseEntity
Of course, doing any of this from a plugin is dicey since you don't know
the data layout for any entities and you don't have access to every
mod's version of CBaseEntity.

Re: [hlcoders] can this work/is it efficient?
The second loop is unnecessary. You can keep track of the winner player in
the first loop and then just print the message after. Also, pull out
iHighestScore from the loop and don't make it static. Making it static saves
the value across function calls which isn't what you want.
void CHL2MPRules::DecideRoundWinner2( void )
{
#ifndef CLIENT_DLL
if ( g_fGameOver )
return;
CBasePlayer *pWinner = NULL;
int iHighestScore = 0;
// count players, leave out spectators
for ( int i = 0; i < MAX_PLAYERS; i++ )
{
CBasePlayer *pCurrentPlayer = UTIL_PlayerByIndex( i );
if ( !pCurrentPlayer || pCurrentPlayer->GetTeamNumber() ==
TEAM_SPECTATOR )
continue;
// if this player's score is higher than the previous highest or no
winner is set yet then set current player as the winner
if( !pWinner || pWinner->GetPlayerScore() > iHighestScore )
{
// change the highest score so it can be compared again next
time this loops
iHighestScore = pCurrentPlayer->GetPlayerScore();
pWinner = pCurrentPlayer;
}
}
if(pWinner)
{
pWinner->SetRoundWinner( true );

Subject: [hlcoders] can this work/is it efficient?
Hey list,
In my mod I want the winner of a round to be announced with a hud print
center and print console.
This will work by score(mind you, score is seperated from the frags
already).
I don't really have any experience when it comes to selecting the
highest score out of multiple objects(players in this case)
With the help of a example I could remember from a C++ guide, I cooked
up the following:
void CHL2MPRules::DecideRoundWinner2( void )
{
#ifndef CLIENT_DLL
if ( g_fGameOver )
return;
int previouswinner = 0;
// count players, leave out spectators
for ( int i = 0; i < MAX_PLAYERS; i++ )
{
CBasePlayer *pPlayer = UTIL_PlayerByIndex( i );
CBasePlayer *pPreviousPlayer = UTIL_PlayerByIndex( previouswinner );
if ( !pPlayer || pPlayer->GetTeamNumber() == TEAM_SPECTATOR )
continue;
// should only be initialized once in the loop
static int iHighestScore = 0;
// if this player's score is higher then the previous highest
then set current player as the winner
if( pPlayer->GetPlayerScore() > iHighestScore )
{
// change the highest score so it can be compared again next
time this loops
iHighestScore = pPlayer->GetPlayerScore();
// mark this player as (potential) winner
pPlayer->SetRoundWinner( true );
// if i is not 0, then there is likely a previous player
with a lower score
if( i )
pPreviousPlayer->SetRoundWinner( false );
// mark this player so he can be recognized as the previous
winner if needed
previouswinner = i;
}
}
// second player counter loop, cycles through the players, then
displays a message when it's found the winner
for ( int j = 0; j < MAX_PLAYERS; j++ )
{
CBasePlayer *pPlayer = UTIL_PlayerByIndex( j );
if ( !pPlayer )
continue;
// did the loop find the winner? if so display the message and
break the loop
if ( pPlayer->IsRoundWinner() )
{
UTIL_ClientPrintAll( HUD_PRINTCENTERCONSOLE, "Player '%s1'
Wins", pPlayer->GetPlayerName() );
break;
}
}
#endif
}
---
As far as I know it should work, but may not be very efficient.
Also I do realize that players with the same score will not be counted
as winners, I first want to know if this way of finding the winner is
correct and works, once I know that I can fiddle with it so players with
the same score won't be left out. Which brings me to my next question:
Does printcenter and/or printconsole, support newlines?
Thanks in advance

Do what Jay said. Make your own spew function and use SpewOutputFunc to set
the current spew function to yours. You can use GetSpewOutputFunc to get the
current one, then set yours, then do whatever you need to get, then set it
back to the function that GetSpewOutputFunc returned you. I do it for
redirecting the output of rcon commands.
OldSpew = GetSpewOutputFunc();
SpewOutputFunc(rcon_spew_func);
// exec command
engine->ServerCommand(UTIL_VarArgs("%s\n", rcon_cmd));

Re: [hlcoders] AutoAssign to a team
I see at least one problem here.
Let's say I do "jointeam 0". It's going to go thru the code and randomly
assign me to a team as you want, but then it's going to fall through to this
code here:
ChangeTeam( team );
return true;
} //end jointeam
And put me back on team 0.
Also, this code:
ChangeTeam( random->RandomInt( TEAM_COMBINE, TEAM_REBELS ) );
Assumes TEAM_REBEL comes after TEAM_COMBINE (which, it does, but not
necessarily safe to assume). A better way would be to switch on a random
number 0 to 1 so that you don't depend on the value of the constants. For
example:
switch(random->RandomInt(0, 1))
{
case 0:
ChangeTeam(TEAM_COMBINE);
break;
default:
ChangeTeam(TEAM_REBELS);
break;
}

Subject: [hlcoders] AutoAssign to a team
Hey list,
been trying to get AutoAssign to work, got as far as to making it
actually join instead of dumping you back into spectate or not working
at all.. but now I'm stuck
To get autoassign to work I'm employing the basic if teamplay = 1 and
you join team 0(unassigned) then it's supposed to move you to either
Rebels or Combine, instead in a teamplay game your not moved so you join
the game as unnasigned, you then take on the spawnpoints of
info_player_deathmatch instead of info_player_insertteamname which are
placed randomly on the map. Also you don't show up on the scoreboard.
The mod is in Ep1 and using the command mp_teamplay each map can be set
to be either deathmatch or team deatmatch(spawns for teams are in a
bunker, deathmatch spawns are scattered across the map)
Here's the code I'm using in player.cpp in the function bool
CBasePlayer::ClientCommand(const char *cmd):
(code concerning spectate commands above)
else if ( stricmp( cmd, "jointeam" ) == 0 ) //start jointeam
{
if (engine->Cmd_Argc() < 2 )
return true;
int team = atoi( engine->Cmd_Argv(1) );
//don't do anything if you join your own team
if ( team == GetTeamNumber() )
return true;
CTeam *pCombine = g_Teams[TEAM_COMBINE];
CTeam *pRebels = g_Teams[TEAM_REBELS];
//auto assign if you join team 0
if ( GetTeamNumber() == 0 )
{
if ( HL2MPRules()->IsTeamplay() == true )
{
if ( pCombine == NULL || pRebels == NULL )
{
ChangeTeam( random->RandomInt( TEAM_COMBINE,
TEAM_REBELS ) );
}
else
{
if ( pCombine->GetNumPlayers() >
pRebels->GetNumPlayers() )
{
ChangeTeam( TEAM_REBELS );
}
else if ( pCombine->GetNumPlayers() <
pRebels->GetNumPlayers() )
{
ChangeTeam( TEAM_COMBINE );
}
else
{
ChangeTeam( random->RandomInt( TEAM_COMBINE,
TEAM_REBELS ) );
}
}
}
}
if ( !IsDead() )
{
if ( GetTeamNumber() != TEAM_UNASSIGNED )
{
CommitSuicide();
IncrementFragCount(1); //adds 1 frag to balance out
the 1 subtracted for killing yourself
}
}
ChangeTeam( team );
return true;
} //end jointeam
return true;
}
return false;

Re: [hlcoders] Setting restriction for CVARS
When you define the CVAR, there is an overload that takes minimum and
maximum values. For example:
ConVar example("example", "0", 0, "Example CVAR.", true, 0, true 10);
The example CVAR will be limited to 0-10.

Re: [hlcoders] gravity gun help
Did you try that suggestion I gave earlier (reposted below for convenience). - The physcannon will drop anything that gets too far away. When you're in noclip, you move faster than the object attached to the physcannon moves (turning off prediction will show this). Changing the error will change how far away you can get, but won't fix the problem. What if you change the maxSpeed of the object? Look for: m_shadow.maxSpeed = 1000; Try changing that.

I agree that Valve does need to offer more interfaces to plugins for things like this. Doing anything with entities is incredibly limited given the provided resources. However, I think each one of these things is a simple vfunc call away to the desired result. ent_fire and ent_name can be accomplished using the AcceptInput virtual function, and give can be done with GiveNamedItem.

This is one of the biggest deficiencies of the server-side plugin SDK. Ideally, the "give" API (or any name-based entity creation method) would also be included, but there may be more mod-specific issues for you there, perhaps. Currently without hacks/hooks it's very difficult to emulate this. Is there any reason entity inputs/messaging weren't exposed via interfaces that server plugins can access?

You can use SourceHook to hook any virtual class functions you want. You can use it to overwrite parameters like you want to before calling the original function. However, I don't think you can use it to hook a function, do some stuff, and then skip that function and call the baseclass's function. You either have to call or skip the entire thing after the hook. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of coderdude Sent: Friday, February 01, 2008 6:27 AM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: [hlcoders] Overriding engine interfaces I need to hook an engine's interface (inside the actual code, not an external process, It's not a cheat nor a bot).

RE: [hlcoders] Vehicles when teleported lose all speed builtup.
If you are using CBaseEntity::Teleport() do you get the same issue when you try SetAbsOrigin? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Christopher Harris Sent: Monday, October 01, 2007 9:05 AM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: [hlcoders] Vehicles when teleported lose all speed builtup. This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Essentially when you teleport a vehicle with CBaseEntity::Teleport it will lose all of its speed and essentially have to start going again from 0 velocity, current rpms etc. This is a major problem for us because we are using the teleport to snap vehicles that are not being controlled by a person in the game to where they should be. Essentially these special vehicles get a waypoint from a special packet that can be sent by either a log file or some other application. We try to get the vehicle there efficiently and it works quite fine for straight motion, but when we turn we usually end up getting behind and so we have to teleport to where we should be. It appears the VehicleController does not like teleports... Unfortunately you can only get the operating parameters for viewing and not for changing and so I have yet to see a way to directly influence a vehicle's movement directly rather than through control parameters. Does anyone know a way to maintain the vehicles operating params when performing a teleport?

[hlcoders] TF2 Plugin Interface Change
This is a multipart message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] When working on my player limit remover plugin, I found that there was a change in the IServerPluginCallbacks interface. By making this change, the plugin will load and will not cause a server crash when players connect. The change is in ClientCommand. It now takes an extra pointer as a parameter. So make the change: virtual PLUGIN_RESULT ClientCommand( edict_t *pEntity ); to virtual PLUGIN_RESULT ClientCommand( edict_t *pEntity, void *foo ); I'm not sure what this extra pointer is. It might be a CCommand or const char. I'm not sure. If you make this change in iserverplugin.h and any other relevant places for your plugin, it should work. There are other changed interfaces, but this is one crucial change that you must make to get your server plugin running stable. Just though I'd share my findings in case others are still trying to get plugins working. :D Also, if you are interested in the player limit remover plugin, it removes the player limit from TF2 and other mods.

Hello,
i have a big Problem...
I need to unload my Plugin and load it again.
After i have unloaded the plugin i delete the *.so file and
copy a new version to this position...
But when i than load the plugin again (without restart the server)
the old plugin version gets loaded so i think, that the plugin get loaded
from memmory...
Is there any way, to delete all content like cvars and other by unloading
the plugin so i can load a newer version without restart the server?
Thanks

RE: [hlcoders] Is there a Bug in the Engine with Plugins???
Well then, even if you do manage to get the plugin unloaded from, you won't be able to update it because the DLL is never unloaded. Even if you rename the DLL and then put a new one in its place, the old one is still the one that gets loaded after calling plugin_load.

RE: [hlcoders] Is there a Bug in the Engine with Plugins???
You can do filesystem->UnloadModule (I think that's the one). If you do that, it's going to crash because it will try to execute the next line of your plugin, but it will have been unloaded so therefore the memory will not be executable. So, in regards to what you are looking for, no, there is no function you can call to unload your plugin. The only thing I can think of is what you already tried, Engine->ServerCommand( "plugin_unload MyPlugin\n" ). But, if you don't mind me asking, why must you unload the plugin?

RE: [hlcoders] Is there a Bug in the Engine with Plugins???
Ya, Mike promised me he would look into it. When you unload a plugin, it never really gets unloaded. UnloadModule never seems to get called on the DLL, so it is still loaded in RAM and therefore the DLL cannot be deleted or replaced since it is in use. I wanted to be able to use plugin_unload to unload my plugin, update the DLL, and then load it again, but it instead I have to restart the server. However, the issue you mentioned isn't the same as the one I am experiencing. As far as I know, if I run plugin_unload for my plugin, it will stop receiving any function calls. Have you tried typing "plugin_unload MyPlugin" in the console and seeing if it still receives GameFrame calls like it does if you run the command from the code? Perhaps you're getting bizarre issues since you are trying to unload your plugin from the very same plugin. I dunno, just a thought. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tobias Kammersgaard Sent: Saturday, September 01, 2007 6:41 PM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Is there a Bug in the Engine with Plugins??? -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I believe this is a bug, it was mentioned here earlier. :-) Think Mike promissed to look into it, but I haven't heard anything about it. /ProZak On 02/09/07, Ratman2000 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello, > > i have written a small plugin what removes only a special entity from a > Map > and Unloads > itself after doing that... > > So i have added a small log text to Game Frame to see whats doing becouse > the unload... > > So i have startet it, the plugin starts, removes the entity and unloads > fine... > > But after server activate, my plugin begins to printing the Game Frame > Funktion AFTER unloading the Plugin > > whats wrong???

RE: [hlcoders] Redirect server command output
Yes, I understand that, but it's also buffered and therefore not written
right away so I wouldn't be able to use the log file to see what the output
was.
Not to mention some output isn't written to the log.

[hlcoders] Redirect server command output
This is a multipart message in MIME format.
--
[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]
I'm trying to redirect the output of a server command to a file, but I'm
having problems.
I've come up with the following code (this code is within a ConCommand that
I have written):
char cmd[2048];
// clear out any pending commands first
engine->ServerExecute();
// save the old stdout
int oldstdout = dup(1);
// redirect stdout to rcon.txt if writable
FILE *fp = fopen("rcon.txt", "w");
if(fp)
{
dup2(fileno(fp), 1);
}
// prepare the command
Q_snprintf(cmd, sizeof(cmd), "%s\n", engine->Cmd_Args());
// just some tests
puts("Test:");
Msg("Cooltest\n");
// queue the command
engine->ServerCommand(msg);
// actually execute the command
engine->ServerExecute();
// more tests
puts("posttest");
Msg("coolposttest\n");
// restore everything if we messed with anything
if(fp)
{
// flush to make sure text gets written to
file, not console
fflush(stdout);
fclose(fp);
// put stdout back
dup2(oldstdout, 1);
// and close the duplicate
close(oldstdout);
flushall();
}
When this code executes a command on the server (cvarlist for example), no
output is written to the console but there is no relevant output in the
rcon.txt file either. The contents of the rcon.txt file are:
Test:
posttest
The tests using Msg() don't write to the file nor does the server command.
Nothing is written to the console either, so it looks like the output gets
lost somewhere. Why doesn't this work to redirect output of Msg()? I'm
testing this in Windows. I'd be surprised if it didn't work in Linux as well
since Linux seems to be more compliant with these sorts of things.
Does anybody have any ideas or recommendations?

It's not that difficult. I just want to know if there is a reason that
plugins aren't removed from memory after plugin_unload "unloads" them.
If there is, then OK that's fine. If there isn't, then I was hoping that
it could be added in. I wouldn't expect anybody on the list except a
Valve developer to know the answer. I was just hoping someone from Valve

Is there anyone at Valve on this list that knows more about plugin
unloading? I'd like to know if there is a reason that the module is not
unloaded from memory when plugin_unload unloads a plugin.

[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] This has been brought
up before, even as early as 2005, but no discussion really ever took
place about it. When a plugin is unloaded with plugin_unload, it's
destructor is never called and it is never actually unloaded from
memory. This makes it impossible to update plugins without having to
restart the server.
I've experimented with this, and I believe all that needs to happen is
that after the engine calls the plugin's Unload function, it just needs
to call
filesystem->UnloadModule(plugin). I came up with this based on the fact
filesystem->that
if I call it myself in the plugin's Unload function, it successfully
calls the destructor and unloads from memory. However, it immediately
crashes because it tries to return to the where it left off in the
plugin's Unload function which is now invalid memory (see example at
end).
Furthermore, if you try to get around this by renaming the plugin's DLL
after it is "unloaded" and then replacing the DLL with a new one, it
just loads the old one. The only way to get around it is to load a
completely new DLL (e.g. plugin_2.dll).
My plugin fully supports being unloaded and loaded in the middle of a
game, but this is the only thing stopping that feature from being
useful. Maybe there is a reason it is not unloaded after the
plugin_unload command, or maybe it's just a mistake. Could Valve please
respond?
Example from second paragraph:
IFileSystem *filesystem = NULL;
CSysModule *g_OurDLL = NULL;
bool CEmptyServerPlugin::Load( CreateInterfaceFn
interfaceFactory, CreateInterfaceFn gameServerFactory )
{
filesystem =
(IFileSystem*)interfaceFactory(FILESYSTEM_INTERFACE_VERSION, NULL);
g_OurDLL = filesystem->LoadModule( "sourceop" ); // get the handle for
our dll to unload later
return true;
}
void CEmptyServerPlugin::Unload( void )
{
filesystem->UnloadModule(g_OurDLL); // unload once
because we loaded it ourself (decrements engine's use counter)
filesystem->UnloadModule(g_OurDLL); // unload again to
actually unload dll
// crash here (invalid memory access)

RE: [hlcoders] View Snapping when other players enter vehicle
It happens in HL2MP whenever I spawn a boat. It's either when they get in or get out, not both. I think it happens when they get out of the vehicle but it's possible I have it mixed up.

Subject: [hlcoders] DOD:S and server plugins
Hello,
in the modevents.res of DOD:S I find the following event:
"dod_point_captured"
{
"cp""byte" // index of the point that was
captured
"cpname""string"// name of the point
"cappers" "string"// string where each character is a
player index of someone that capped
"bomb" "bool" // was this a bomb exploding
}
I have registered this event to the game event listener and I receive this
event, when it occurs. The problem is, all fields are filled except the
cappers field, this is empty. But I need to know who captured the flag, I
don't need to know which flag. How can get this information?
The second question is regarding a level change. If I change the map with
engine->ChangeMap() the map will be changed immediatly without showing the
results of the current map. How can I show the results first and then change
the map to another one?
Remember, this should be all done within a server plugin.
Thanks for your help.
Best regards
Ronny Schedel

Yes, that's what botman said. It crashes because he uses pEntity when it is
NULL. He doesn't check for this in his original code.

To make sure they were gone, I started a listen server and typed this in the console: ] play sourceop/radio/whatislov Failed to load sound "sourceop\radio\whatislov.wav", file probably missing from disk/repository ] play sourceop/radio/whatislove The file whatislove.wav is deleted, and no sound was played, but there was no error complaining about it like there was when I misspelled the file name. This seemed strange to me for two reasons. One, the file was deleted before HL2 was started. Two, this suggests that the game still thinks it exists somehow. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Yahn Bernier Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2007 4:52 PM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: RE: [hlcoders] Sound Downloading Bug Certainly there could still be issues, but I reworked the startup order of the engine to not try and load the sounds until after any "downloads" had finished.

RE: [hlcoders] Sound Downloading Bug
Same thing happens. No error, but no sound plays either. I checked, double checked, and triple checked. The file does not exist so it's weird that there is no error. The file still re-downloads when I connect to the server, but it's keeping me from trying to reproduce the sound download bug I was originally talking about. ] play sourceop/radio/whatislove ] play sourceop/radio/whatislov Failed to load sound "sourceop\radio\whatislov.wav", file probably missing from disk/repository I think the original bug that I was talking about has something to do with connecting somewhere else first then connecting to the server that has the sound downloads. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adam "amckern" McKern Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2007 5:13 PM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: RE: [hlcoders] Sound Downloading Bug Did you remove the modname/cache folder as well?
