Re: [hlcoders] Rotation of an entity
Yeah I know what you mean I think.. If you want to rotate it using physics it's easier.. Kinda. Well probably harder if you haven't looked into motion controllers. When you apply a motion controller to the physics object you can decide whether the forces are local or global. If you choose local and apply torque to it it'll rotate around its own angles (not the world).. I'll be interested in hearing the real solution to this when you're not using physics - I'm dumb when it comes to angles and matrices and stuff.

Re: [hlcoders] Rotation of an entity
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I am totally with you. I am also lost on this one hehe.. I recently figured out how to do tracelines properly so that should say a lot ;) I'll take a different approach to my problem, maybe other people can understand :o The physics will not work for my problem, as I'm not really changing the physical angles of the entity, but it's eye angles. So for example, I would like to rotate a player's view to the left, without moving their model at all. If the player is facing straight ahead, this is farily easy. But if the player is looking up/down, then I have no idea what to do, as the angles are relative to the world.. There must be some transpose functions or something I'm missing.. Any help would be greatly appreciated ;) Thanks again. On 7/27/06, Garry Newman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yeah I know what you mean I think.. If you want to rotate it using physics it's easier..

Re: [hlcoders] Rotation of an entity
For entity angles, I think you're looking for something along the lines of GetAbsAngles()/SetAbsAngles(). Note that GetLocalAngles()/SetLocalAngles() doesn't refer to the object's own frame of reference (which wouldn't make sense), but to the moveparent's frame of reference (if the moveparent exists). For eye-angles stuff, you'll probably do something like creating a rotation matrix and grabbing the entity's transformation matrix, then combining them with ConcatTransforms(). -John Sheu ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders

Re: [hlcoders] Copy file from GCF to moddir
Take a look at hllib, and you might be able to get a small copy program to run with the installer that will do it for you. I know substance did this, but it was from my understanding an in house installer.

Re: [hlcoders] Interaction with VGUI Screens
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] You have to derive a subclass of vgui_screen for each subtype of screen you want in your maps. So for instance you wanna have keypad locks. You can derive from vgui_screen a keypad_screen and then in there you can handle logic specific to a keypad and have it use outputs when the correct code is entered, etc. and also have it use the code specified by the person in hammer, etc. On 7/27/06, Michael Kramer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Just have a bunch of Labels, set them hidden (Visible to 0) and then when a button is pushed have it trigger something (using inputs from hammer) that will make the current Label Invisible, and toggle one of the Other Label's Visible. -- ___ 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] Copy file from GCF to moddir
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] You could always try searching for them with standard IO on DLL init to see if they're in the actual directory and if not use IFileSystem::GetLocalCopy(). I've never tested it but according to the comments it should do what you want.

[hlcoders] Re: modelinfo == NULL crashes
Thanks, I'll try that out.

From a random forum thread.
Fixed. Adding (to c_baseanimating.h):
inline int C_BaseAnimating::GetSequence()
{
if (m_nSequence == -1 || m_nSequence == 1023)
m_nSequence = 0;
//Assert( false );
return m_nSequence;
}

I had these crashes also when players didn't had any valid models.
I can't really read memory dumps at the moment but I suggest you look in
the
tracestack and look from which entity this comes and find out if it
always
has a good model. Maybe the model-files are corrupt.. Maybe add a little
extra check so when it fails, it uses error.mdl.

Hello, I program for a mod that was just released as a public beta,

I've
been getting a few memory dumps with crashes in:
model_t *CBaseEntity::GetModel( void )
{
return (model_t *)modelinfo-GetModel( GetModelIndex() );
}
and I've gotten one with a crash in:
const studiohdr_t *virtualgroup_t::GetStudioHdr( ) const
{
return modelinfo-FindModel( this-cache );
}
In both cases modelinfo is a NULL pointer. The memory dumps don't
really
tell me anything that I can use, so I was wondering if anyone here or
possibly someone at Valve could help me out with this. Here's a link
to
the
memory dumps I've gotten, I don't know if anyone can use them or not:

Thanks for any help.
