You're missing the error. I lost the email where you showed the
full function but your error is that in your functions signature
you defined the szKeyName parameter as a const char*. By that you
promised anyone calling your function that you wil *not* change
the contents of the array that szKeyName points to.
But that is exactly what you do in that function so you are
breaking your contract with other code established with your
function signature.
So since you change the szKeyName in your function you should say
so in your function signature and declare the parameter as char*.
That will show you all the other places where code relies on the
array not getting changed by your function.
Of course the brute-force method you used works too, simply lying
about what you do in the function and casting the const away.
Althuogh in C++ you would usually use a const_castchar* for that
to make it obvious that you are doing something nasty here.

Re: [hlcoders] Community Shared Code Base
Yes, the wiki could work. What I'm thinking of is standard code chunks for common things. Now I'm thinking more high level like, here is code chunk for a boat, here is a code chunk for a gatlin gun, etc... Things that you'd see in multiple mods, thus not having to 'reinvent' the wheel. I see it over and over, mods doing the exact same weapons, and yet instead of sharing a 'x gun' model, each side makes thier own copy of 'x gun'. Why couldn't someone make a great 'x gun' model and then then make it available to everyone? A 'open source' movement within mods, sharing pieces parts etc would be the ideal situation. Both in models and code objects. Didn't I remember at one time it said that HL2 would have a 'warehouse' of objects that people could use/add to that resembles what I'm outlining?

Also of note is a little splurge that should probably be output on help log: Enables logging to file, console, and udp on | off . And a similar little tip that seems to be output on help logaddress_delall: Remove all udp addresses being logged to So it seems that all network transmission of logs is done over UDP, it hasn't changed to TCP like the RCON protocol.

If I had writing this particular framework I would have done it like this Root/addons/*.dll - server wide binary-plugin store (all mods) Root/addons/*.vdf - VDFs for all Mods Root/Mod/addons/*.dll - Mod specific binary-plugin store Root/Mod/addons/*.vdf - VDFs for this Mod I make that suggestion with all due respect. :-) I noticed that you can place plugins below the server root .. Is this *Really* good security? ../../../../myplugin - Original Message - From: Alfred Reynolds [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 03, 2004 1:35 AM Subject: [hlcoders] Server plugins We just released a fix for server plugins note loading under Steam, restart Steam to get it. The path details for loading a plugin have also changed, the .vdf file should specify the filename relative to the bin/ directory of the server (i.e if you copy your binary into the base bin/ directory then it just needs to be the filename, serverplugin_empty ). The SDK document about plugins will be updated soon reflecting this change. - Alfred ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders

Re: [hlcoders] Community Shared Code Base
We could, if its legal with the licenses, set up a CVS or Subversion repository too, either on SourceForge or privately, and make it act just like an open source project. Then, people can all contribute to the same code . HOWEVER, this will likely have the effect of one of the following: 1. No one likes how the item works, and changes it and checks it in. The person relying on it checks out the latest code and BAM. 2. The above happens, but people branch off their own versions, and then you're back to everyone being different. 3. Someone becomes the appointed Code Master and is in charge of the community's code to help police the above and help keep everything running. I'd love to see such a thing exist though - not neccessarily because I want to use someone's object, but because I want to see how they coded it. And potentially fix bugs in it.

[hlcoders] steam and mod question
Hello, I never used Steam and until that day used Half-Life 1.1.0.8. Today I've updated it via Steam and... there is no custom game. I've searched Steam support and found that I should just copy mod dir into SteamApps\AccountName\Half-Life folder, but that doesn't do anything. My mod is not registered anywhere in Steam, it is in development - Decay. Can someone point me how to run it in new Half-Life?

RE: [hlcoders] Other interfaces in serverplugin
Yes, you should be able to use all the ones exported by the engine,
material system, filesystem and studiorender. The game factory supplies
ones exported by the game dll. The missing factory is the vphysics
library, I will look at getting that added, in the mean time try this
snippet:
// Load the dependent components
g_PhysicsDLL = filesystem-LoadModule( vphysics , NULL, false );
physicsFactory = Sys_GetFactory( g_PhysicsDLL );
if ( !physicsFactory )
{
Error( Sys_LoadPhysicsDLL: Failed to load vphysics\n );
}
!(physics = (IPhysics*)physicsFactory(VPHYSICS_INTERFACE_VERSION, NULL))
Make sure you also do a filesystem-UnloadModule() on destruction.

Re: [hlcoders] Community Shared Code Base
That isn't the best example but consider this. Wouldn't you rather start from a near proximaty of what you want then from scratch? Consider that many things are used across mods are exactly alike. How many times have I seen some weapon show up in many mods? Is an M1A1 Tank really that much different in a Desert Combat mod then it is in a Aliens invaded present day mod? And if you wanted a more futuristic M1A1 wouldn't you rather have something to start with that you could change a few things around then to have to do the entire thing from scratch? Why does everyone have to re-invent the wheel everytime? Simple, the fear that if you share your code you've given your work away and enable another mod to get furthur with less effort and they may publish before you and they may get more players then you do. But I say players play the mods they like, not the code. If everyone gets on board and starts universally sharing then its to everyone benefit. Suddenly we have code branches of common objects for people to use... the Tank mentioned now has a child class of 'Sci-Fi' version with a laser turret vs shell... everyone contributes thier work from thier mods, over time the library grows and expands and people spend less time recreating the common stuff and focusing on sharing and enhancing/improving more specialized stuff. The potential library can be enormous, freeing us to focus more on implementation details and specialties. You may think, no way. Its too competative, modders don't want to share. People said Open Source wouldn't work either once upon a time. We just need someone who is very knowledible in all this to help direct and drive it. Valve, I have 15 years IT experience in multi-million dollar projects... pay me and I'll lead it. Otherwise I gotta feed the kids and while I can toss out the idea, I don't have time to take follow it through. :) ChessMess On Fri, 3 Dec 2004 18:03:24 -0600, SB Childe Roland [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What if some people have different ideas on how to do the same thing(like the scoreboard)?

Modify Half-Life 2 does include the HL weapon code, but of course the default behavior for the mod is a single player game. Changing appid in gameinfo.txt to 320 or using -applaunch 320 for steam.exe doesn't seem to do the trick (the changes I made to the source still don't have any effect, since it looks like it's just loading the old deathmatch dll).

RE: [hlcoders] Adding other languages .. (localization)
The Source engine fully supports the unicode character set. We do not currently support right to left text entry. Mods can define the fonts used to render their game, you would need to use one that includes the Arabic character set. You could use the vgui controls source code as a base to implement right to left text controls. So yes, it could be done inside your mod (but not in the initial GameUI). - Alfred Original Message From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hasan Aljudy Sent: Friday, December 03, 2004 9:44 PM To: hlcoders Subject: [hlcoders] Adding other languages .. (localization) I really have no idea if this is possible or not, but is it possible to add support for additional languages? not programming languages .. I'm talking about localization and stuff. basically, I noticed steam doesn't quite support arabic, the source engine can render arabic fonts fine, the problem I think is related to encoding or something. I can't just type stuff in notepad and copy it over, because even though it looks correct in notepad, once I copy it to Source, it gets distorted .. I have to use the character map and copy stuff from there. an arabic letter have several forms depending on its position in the word .. initial, middle, final .. etc. my question is, is it possible to code stuff like this with the SDK? or is this not aailable to us? ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
RE: [hlcoders] re: Retreiving a player's origin for use in a plugin
I don't think you can right now via any generic methods, we will be adding a richer player querying API for plugins. In the mean time you can rely on the CBaseEntity definition being constant for cstrike and hl2dm. - Alfred Original Message From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Josh Sent: Friday, December 03, 2004 9:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hlcoders] re: Retreiving a player's origin for use in a plugin This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] How do I retrieve a player's origin if I have their entid/index ?

RE: [hlcoders] Creating Effects using the plugin interface
You would send a sprite network message, see te_sprite.cpp and copy that (you will have to bring in all the baseentity code to do this, good luck :) - Alfred Original Message From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Josh Sent: Friday, December 03, 2004 9:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [hlcoders] Creating Effects using the plugin interface OK what If I wanted to create a sprite at a certain origin.

Is anything like this possible with the built-in plugin interface for HL2? I've browsed the source for hours, and the only messages I have seen so far are purely text/menus.
