-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I'm very interested in learning Source programming so decided to start following the programming guides and tutorials in The Valve Developer Community wiki (http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Category:Programming). I started the Installing and Debugging the Source Code<http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Installing_and_Debugging_the_Source_Code>tutorial. I created a mod and saved into a my documents directory (E:\Documents\Programs\MyMod), installed Visual Studio 2003 .NET (not a new piece of software to me) and rebuilt the solution with the no problems - I checked in the SourceMods directory and a directory for MyMod was created along with the client.dll and server.dll files.
I then attempted to set up the debugging parameters. As specified in the tutorial, I set the following parameters for debugging, as suited for my system setup: Command: D:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\iamai\half-life 2\hl2.exe Command Arguments: -dev -sw -game E:\Documents\Programs\MyMod Working Directory: D:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\iamai\half-life 2 Afterwhich, I tried starting a debugging instance and I get the same unhandled expection error message from Visual Studio: Unhandled exception at 0x0d0ee66f in hl2.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000. I don't know if that means anything to anyone. Note that I followed the advice regarding running Half-Life 2 before running the debugger if the SDK have been updated (don't think it had, but I did anyway) and it also Visual Studio says 'hl2.exe' does not contain any debugging information (no symbols loaded). Assuming it possible to get this working at this stage before actually changing any content of the mod, I would like to get this working before I move on too far - I would like to build any mods that I may make following tutorials. Please help and thanks in advance! -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
