RE: [hlcoders] black screen when I start a server with my mod.

[Brandon Renfrow]

Esc/resume doesn't do anything, I tried all the resolution modes the
only thing that was promising is that at 800 x 600 using opengl I could
see the words "loading". There is no small square at the top. The code
is vanilla :).

i have the exact same problem. its like my game menu but screwed up. it
only
happened when i upgraded to a radeon 9100 (with my screwy old S3 virge
it
was fine). running in a window gets rid of this problem but if i run
full
screen i have to esc/resume. also it affects the windowed mode if u
start in
full screen and switch to windowed.

it does it in every mod i tried :/

[hlcoders] 2 questions

[Balint Laszlo BILLER]

Hi,
1. Do you know any "event" which is triggered and can be captured by a
metamod plugin? I mean an event which runs at every 5 minutes or something
similar (for heartbeat).
2. Any ideas how to compile a metamod plugin for windows which uses openssl
and mysql4 libs? (I tried mingw, but it was not good :()
Thanks,
Voodooman

RE: [hlcoders] black screen when I start a server with my mod.

[Tony \"omega\" Sergi]

It only happens if you actually use the multiplayer menu to launch.
If you go by command line it never does, because the launcher doesn't try to
minimize; and then stay ontop.

When you click "ok" it drops back a menu, and stays ontop in opengl mode. It
happens with my gf4 but it didn't with my voodoo3 2 years ago.

Re: [hlcoders] black screen when I start a server with my mod.

[MoD]

I get a leftover 640X480 picture of the game menu after starting a
listen server, esc resume and its ok.

Brandon, try running at different resolutions and report what gives.
Also, make sure you used a vanilla SDK, I like to mess with a line of
code here and tehre and I sometime forget about it...

RE: [hlcoders] black screen when I start a server with my mod.

[Phil]

At some resolutions, you will see a large square in the top-left corner
instead of it covering the whole screen.

Is there any known cause of this?

Try pressing escape (after it's done loading) then click 'Resume Game'

Happens with other mods too.
