You may want to consider just writing a website instead and access it via
the Steam overlay.
The connect:// links should work in-game (they do for both L4D1 and 2 at
least) which is cool.

The first thing I would do is put the result of m_hModel.Get() into its own
variable (is it returning NULL?)
Can you cast pModel to CModelPanelModel?
Is 'pModel' becoming NULL?

I have not played with the game SDK before (just for server plugins), but
surely client side prediction can step in here and you can relax how often
you send updates?
If the client received the origin, direction and velocity of the rocket,
client side prediction would take care of movnig the
projectile bandwidth
Prediction doesn't stop the server from sending you updates, because if your
clientside values go out of range you have set, it snaps to the server's
values.

You may need to double check that any plugins you have running are still
being loaded with -allowdebug turned on (I think it forces the server to
only load debug builds of plugins, not release builds).
Your error may still be occurring but less obvious because of the debug
build of your plugin/s.
Yep, at least from a VSP environment, simply call:
ConVar* hostName = cvar-FindVar(hostname);
if (hostName) {
// Do stuff with this variable
std::string currentHostName = std::string(hostName-GetString());
}
You can also call GetInt() and a few others on the convar to interpret

Hi guys,
Is it possible yet to create a simple server plugin for Left4Dead?
I've compiled the serverplugin_empty file, installed it as per the wiki etc,
but when trying to load the plugin from the console I receive:
Failed to load plugin serverplugin_empty
Unable to load plugin
?
Here is the actual link:

Check alliedmods.net wiki under Left4Dead interface changes.
