[hlcoders] Unable to debug
OK, after too many try, I can't. Steam is a plague. I make all good for debug my code in visual studio. Nothing works in my single modification. When I debug, HL lauchs succefully, but after a short while a message box appears : Connection to servers steam lost. Could not acquire necessary game files Google doesn't help me a lot, as most of the results seems to be related with hacked version... Well sounds good. If I don't click OK at this message box, the game loads as usual, but crash at end. So, I can't debug. For info, Steam was installed on my personal PC, but as I had VisualStudio in my work laptop, I installed steam and HL2 here. Steam isn't running on my personal PC. Snif... I can't even play.

[hlcoders] True-Type Font Resources
It's quite nifty this time around that we can load and render true-type fonts, however I noticed that TTF creation packages are not free. I was wondering the name of the application Valve used internally to create their TTF font resources, and if they know of any good, free tools. I'd hate to see such a great feature go to waste because it cost money to create the resources. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders

[hlcoders] dlight
This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Why dont dlights work in the dx7 codepath? I would have figured anybody could use them, and maybe have a cvar to toggle em off, I mean, they work in hl1 without issue, is there something huge that makes them not work in hl2 with anything less than dx8? I just find it odd that texture projection/shadows etc work but not dlights, when the hl1 had em in software. -omega --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Take a look in c_weapon__stubs_hl2.cpp on the client. You'll see where Valve hid their client-side implementation of the weapons in some hacky macros.

[hlcoders] ServerPlugins - Maze without map
This is insane. 90% of the information around about the SDK doesn't work in
server plugins. Look at this page for a good example:

The page doesn't say it doesn't apply to server plugins, that is even listed
under the 'server' part.. all well and good then, right?
Well no not really because in the server plugin project it is defined like
this:
virtual bf_write *UserMessageBegin( IRecipientFilter *filter, int msg_type )
= 0;
Worse, there is no default filter class for the server project and no good
way of getting the msg_type!
I could go on and on about this.. The server plugin needs an SDK all its
own..
Last but not least, this doesn't work (I have setup servergll correctly) -
It crashes telling me I haven't sent a usermessage, like if you JUST call
MessageEnd() without anything else:
edict_t *ed =

char name[128] = ; int sizereturn = 0;
bool boolrtn = false; int type = -1;

{

Re: [hlcoders] ServerPlugins - Maze without map
I think your just incorrect because I just tried it on HL2:DM and got the
same thing,
MESSAGE_END called with no active message - Engine Error
And then the server crashes and dies with a lovely 0x0040 read (the
server attempted to use a pointer to an object that wasn't defined).
Which, by the way could EASILY be resolved by simply adding a if(n == NULL)

[hlcoders] Drawing additive textures, alpha channels in VGUI panels
Is there a way to draw a texture in VGUI using the equivelent of the old
DRAW_ADDITIVE sprite mode? Currently, my code looks like this:
CHudThing::CHudThing () // contructor
{
m_iArmorIconID = vgui::surface()-CreateNewTextureID();
vgui::surface()-DrawSetTextureFile( m_iArmorIconID,
vgui/armoricon , true, false);
}
CHudThing::Paint () // draw the icon in the VGUI panel.
{
// draw icon
vgui::surface()-DrawSetColor(fgColor);
vgui::surface()-DrawSetTexture( m_iArmorIconID );
vgui::surface()-DrawTexturedRect( icon_xpos, icon_ypos, icon_xpos +
32, icon_ypos + 32 );
}
The icon (a converted tga file) is white where it is supposed to show,
and black on the 'transparent' parts. The problem is that the black
areas are showing up as black on the screen, rather than invisible.
Setting the drawing mode to draw_additive would fix the problem, but
there doesn't seem to be a way to do that. I also tried creating the
icon texture with an alpha channel, but it refuses to load. Is there a
way around this?
Thanks.

Re: [hlcoders] manipulating hull / bbox
Thanks. I wasn't trying to just changing the standing/crouhcing hulls, I was trying to _add_ more hulls. I think I've figured it out, it's probably not a clean way to do it, but I had to mess with CBasePlayer::SetupVPhysicsShadow and stuff like that ... but hey, it's working. Anyway, why is this stuff called shadows? like m_pShadowCrouch and m_pShadowStand? I'm thinking it's the shadow of the player's hull on the physics engine, or something like that.

Re: [hlcoders] ServerPlugins - Maze without map
If you get a crash, then something with your code is wrong. The msg_type for HudMsg is 5 in both mods. Get rid of the freaky code above UserMessageBegin and try only to send the user message. If you still get a crash, then your FilterClass has a wrong implementation. It should hold player indeces between 1 and maxclients. I don't want to fool you, I got the HudMsg working in HL2MP. If you don't believe me, then don't write to me.

Also you can forward declare something for more than just pointers,

just type:

afaik, you can only declare _pointers_ to this class after the forward

[hlcoders] Skyboxes Shaders
[ I sent an email earlier about player models with no responses-- I suppose most of you are waiting for hl2mp src (if it does arrive) to sort this out. I've made some progress but its been put on the backburner to make room for other tests. Anyhow, hopefully I'll have better luck with this next subject ] Before the SDK was released I read somewhere that it's 'possible' to have multiple skyboxes. I see that the framework is in the SDK, but I have some questions.. :) In Sky_Camera.cpp there is a 'global' sky_camera list, but I'm not sure how to tell the engine which sky_camera to use. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to implement it? I have a few ideas bouncing around in my head (like making a sky_area brush entity that a sky_camera would refer to) but none seem good enough. Even though one may be able to tweak the game to have more than one skybox by defining more than one sky_camera and link it to certain areas, it still seems like there is a limitation for only one material set for the toolsskybox material itself, which is set in the world entity. I noticed in world.cpp that the 'skyname' field for the world entity is only used to set the sv_skyname parameter (I'm guessing for debugging/testing/etc).. This leads me to infer that the engine sets what materials to use for skybox rendering BEFORE the game gets to read the world ent... Am I mistaken? Any way to tell the engine to load a different materialset for the skybox during a game-in-progress? A cursory review of the client engine interface didn't turn up any results. So, this all led to a suggestion from the art team that perhaps a VMT may be able to define multiple textures in the skybox material shader scripts, which in turn the game code can reference. Unfortunately, I also see that the documentation is a little sketchy about all the different shader properties.. is there a list anywhere explaining all the properties for things like Cloud or lightmappedgeneric ? Is it possible to define custom shader script directives, or is this strictly an engine thing? /near-infinite list of questions Thanks -- Phil Bowens He is the greatest of warriors who overcomes and subdues himself. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders

Re: [hlcoders] 'mdls : undeclared identifier
Hard to say. It's commented out code, so I wouldn't really worry about
it. Looks like it was a temp variable or something which represented
either the current or previous team. Maybe mdls could represent a team
if all the members used the same model.. *shrug*.

What is mdls suppose to be?
I did a search on mdls and it is only in the teamplay_gamerules.cpp file.
This line here:
Q_snprintf( text,sizeof(text), Can't change team to \'%s\'\n, mdls );
From what I gather from this line mdls is the actual team name ?

Re: [hlcoders] Skyboxes Shaders
You'll need to create an point entity that you put in each area of the map with a skybox, then add a think function to the player that checks which point you're closest too and sets the m_skybox3d accordingly. Worked for me!

I see that the framework is in the SDK, but I have some questions.. :) In Sky_Camera.cpp there is a 'global' sky_camera list, but I'm not sure how to tell the engine which sky_camera to use. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to implement it? I have a few ideas bouncing around in my head (like making a sky_area brush entity that a sky_camera would refer to) but none seem good enough. Even though one may be able to tweak the game to have more than one skybox by defining more than one sky_camera and link it to certain areas, it still seems like there is a limitation for only one material set for the toolsskybox material itself, which is set in the world entity. I noticed in world.cpp that the 'skyname' field for the world entity is only used to set the sv_skyname parameter (I'm guessing for debugging/testing/etc).. This leads me to infer that the engine sets what materials to use for skybox rendering BEFORE the game gets to read the world ent... Am I mistaken? Any way to tell the engine to load a different materialset for the skybox during a game-in-progress? A cursory review of the client engine interface didn't turn up any results. So, this all led to a suggestion from the art team that perhaps a VMT may be able to define multiple textures in the skybox material shader scripts, which in turn the game code can reference. Unfortunately, I also see that the documentation is a little sketchy about all the different shader properties.. is there a list anywhere explaining all the properties for things like Cloud or lightmappedgeneric ? Is it possible to define custom shader script directives, or is this strictly an engine thing? /near-infinite list of questions Thanks -- Phil Bowens He is the greatest of warriors who overcomes and subdues himself. ___ 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

Subject: [hlcoders] Drawing additive textures, alpha channels in VGUI panels
Is there a way to draw a texture in VGUI using the equivelent of the old
DRAW_ADDITIVE sprite mode? Currently, my code looks like this:
CHudThing::CHudThing () // contructor
{
m_iArmorIconID = vgui::surface()-CreateNewTextureID();
vgui::surface()-DrawSetTextureFile( m_iArmorIconID,
vgui/armoricon , true, false);
}
CHudThing::Paint () // draw the icon in the VGUI panel.
{
// draw icon
vgui::surface()-DrawSetColor(fgColor);
vgui::surface()-DrawSetTexture( m_iArmorIconID );
vgui::surface()-DrawTexturedRect( icon_xpos, icon_ypos, icon_xpos +
32, icon_ypos + 32 );
}
The icon (a converted tga file) is white where it is supposed to show,
and black on the 'transparent' parts. The problem is that the black
areas are showing up as black on the screen, rather than invisible.
Setting the drawing mode to draw_additive would fix the problem, but
there doesn't seem to be a way to do that. I also tried creating the
icon texture with an alpha channel, but it refuses to load. Is there a
way around this?
Thanks.

Re: [hlcoders] True-Type Font Resources
Ok, after some more semi-rigorous testing and evaluation of the available free font tools that I could find, my initial suspicions were confirmed. They're all rubbish. The one I actually got to second base with, meaning that I was able to load an existing font file, only runs through CygwinX. Strangely enough, it runs more slowly than the applications I run remotely, with unacceptable lag. Looks like it's back to the days of having sprites for different resolutions...
