[hlcoders] Free, albeit unfinshed, not working buggy code
This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hi, I never hoped it would come to this, but I'm afraid it has for me. For the last 4 months I have been working on re-building the viewport to make it more modular, more readable more understandable. Unfortunately my efforts are in vain, I undertook not realising how big a project it is although at one point I had beaten it, it has failed. What I have done: I have seperated the different viewport comonents: the acutal viewport, the message functions, the vgui panel functions the menu functions. I have tried to comment alot more in my code. Whether my comments are actually any good to anyone but myself is another matter if they explain to anyone why the code is there, I'd be amazed I have tried to give the viewport less actual control over whats going on, give control of the menu vgui panels to seperate manager classes. I have tried to do other minor things, but they aren't really worth talking about. I'm giving the code out because someone out there might see something they like ideas wise or code-wise expand on what I have done. Any comments on where I went wrong overall(actuall code tips are ok, but I would prefer to know why the overall archietecture failed), would be very much appriciated. The code itself does not run in-game at the moment, I'm getting stack overflow errors, along with alot of unexplained things. I'll be posting this on wavelength later.

[hlcoders] Re: hlcoders digest, Vol 1 #299 - 13 msgs
David, I know this is really basic but have you tried setting a breakpoint in hl_weapons.cpp (around where it handles the IN_ATTACK stuff) and stepping through to find out exactly on what function it bugs out? alX david wrote Hey Guys, I was wondering if you could help me out with a quick HL engine error question. I'm experiencing a weird crashing bug that has something to do with timing in FLF, and to fix it I'm currently trying to re-write the way an existing queue works (where the problem is being traced) Problem is now that I've completed my queue modifications (which were minor), whenever I hop in game and fire a weapon (which is when the Queue's are added/popped from) I get the following HL error: Mod_FindName: NULL Name And HL shuts down. I couldn't find any reference to this in the SDK or online, what does this error mean? The queue modifications were the only modifications I made (I didn't delete my liblist.gam) david PS. To Valve Do you guys purge the database or did you lose the data of the subscribers?

Re: [hlcoders] VGUI class/command button colours
I'm not sure what you're trying to change, but it sounds to me like you're trying to change the border/highlight colour of the buttons?? Here's a brief snippet from our class menu (I've added some code to what was there originally): SchemeHandle_t hButtonText = pSchemes-getSchemeHandle( Primary Button Text ); // color schemes int r, g, b, a; // Get the Border Color for all elements, store in LineBorder variable pSchemes-getBorderColor( hButtonText, r, g, b, a ); m_pLineBorder = new LineBorder( Color (r, g, b, a) ); The line border for many things in the default menus seemed to me to be hard coded, I just changed this to use the schemes from the .txt files, and then set the border colour of my buttons later on. I had to add a line like this: BorderColor = 0 170 0 67 to all my scheme files. I also had to alter the paintBackground function in a few elements, because there again the colour was being set (to a hard coded value) (I just commented out the appropriate line (s)). Maybe this was something that someone ran out of time to do before releasing the SDK?? I don't know, but since 90% of the stuff is read from the .txt scheme files, I wonder if that's not the reason?? is it actually possible to change the colour of these (well, I guess I could change the Primary Button Text scheme - but I want it to depend on the team).

[hlcoders] External communication
C'est un message de format MIME en plusieurs parties. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hi... Well, here's my little problem... I was a great fan of HalfIRC, but now, it doesn't work so good... As i can contact the creator, i tried to developp myself an application which communicates between HL and mIRC... The communication MyProg-mIRC works very well, but i've the problem of MyProg-HL communications... In fact i don't know HOW to make it... I'm trying something... Wellerrr... So I found the ogc code source (sorry to use this method) to see how an external dll works with HL, but i'm not sure what i'm looking for... Must I simply hook the hl.dll (or hl.exe) and developp my vgui code to implement it direclty ? Or there is a explicitly way to developp this functionnality ? So, hope you understand my bad english, and you can help me...

Re: [hlcoders] External communication
Not really, I've just been curious to see it myself because I'd really like to know how they made the launcher seperate from hl.exe seeing as there is no source anywhere they must have made it from scratch and if others could get the launcher code there could be some distinct advantages suchas editing how the menu system works.
