Re: [hlcoders] Unintended Rotation of Parented Props
Uh... How would I do that? To clarify, I mean that the flag rotates *around the player*. As in, it hovers 100 units above the player's head when the player is looking forward, and if the player is looking straight down it hovers 100 units directly in front of the player. It rotates with the player as its center. -Kohan Jorge Rodriguez said: > > You can override the render angles on the client. > > -- > Jorge "Vino" Rodriguez > > > Kohan Venets said: > > I have a flag prop which, when picked up by the player, is supposed to hover over their head.

This is stock Valve made code, and it works fine in EP1. I will add that
though, thanks for the tip.
Anyway, I've figured out my problem. It was the vortex attempting to
influence the player's model (I have the model visible in first person).

[hlcoders] Hopwire Vortex issues - Need a little help
Hello everyone. I'm working on a new weapon for a little project of
mine, and I decided that the hopwire's vortex effect would be perfect
for it's secondary attack. The problem is, when the hopwire goes off, it
crashes if a player is too close to it. This problem is only present on
the orange box engine, as a clean EP1 engine compile seems to work just
fine. According to the dumps, this is the line that's crashing.
grenade_hopwire.cpp
// Ragdolls need to report the sum of all their parts
CRagdollProp *pRagdoll = dynamic_cast< CRagdollProp* >( pEnt );
if ( pRagdoll != NULL )
{
// Find the aggregate mass of the whole ragdoll
ragdoll_t *pRagdollPhys = pRagdoll->GetRagdoll();
for ( int j = 0; j < pRagdollPhys->listCount; ++j )
{
m_flMass += pRagdollPhys->list[j].pObject->GetMass();
}
}
else
{
// Otherwise we just take the normal mass
>>m_flMass += pPhysObject->GetMass();
}
It's giving a negative mass. What's weird is, even if I hard code the
mass ( m_flMass = 1; ) , it still crashes with a negative mass.

[hlcoders] Unintended Rotation of Parented Props
I have a flag prop which, when picked up by the player, is supposed to hover over their head. Unfortunately, setting the player as the parent of the flag causes the flag to rotate with the player's view. Is there any way to attach it to the player's position without preserving the player's rotation?

Well I'm sure that's now how Valve does it, so now i"m curious as to how they do it for the Meet the Shorts.

Re: [hlcoders] Access reception to hlcoders forum
Yeah - I thought that when I found out about how demos are stored. Very easy to incriminate an opposing team in CSS if you're desperate to win. 2009/7/4 Matt Hoffman : > Demo's look easy to fake.

Re: [hlcoders] Rendering Z-Depth Pass's in TF2?
You could do a server plugin that does tracelines and produces a shade of white from (0-255) based on distance. That would be (1024*768) tracelines though. So cpu usage could be fun. 2009/7/4 Matt Hoffman : > I don't suppose there is any way to have TF2 render a z-depth pass ( > http://aamirmalik.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/zdepth.jpg One grabbed off > of google). > > What it would be useful for is post DOF.

[hlcoders] Rendering Z-Depth Pass's in TF2?
I don't suppose there is any way to have TF2 render a z-depth pass ( http://aamirmalik.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/zdepth.jpg One grabbed off of google). What it would be useful for is post DOF. As far as I know there's no way to do DOF in TF2 by default, so I was wondering if there was some shader or plugin or anything that could render a pass of the scene like this. Ever hopefull, -Matt ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
Re: [hlcoders] Access reception to hlcoders forum
Demo's look easy to fake. I was poking around in one the other day and found the server name/player names as strings. I was unable to test it, but I wonder if you can change the strings and save and have the differences in game...

Re: [hlcoders] Problems with shader example
At least I see something now. It "works" both with post_sepia_vs20.inc and SDK_screenspaceeffect_vs20.inc The post_sepia shader gives me a brightenes black and white picture, and the post_invert (float4 cColor=1-tex2D( BaseTextureSampler, iTexCoord );) gives me a completely white picture. Seems like the shader does not have access to FB_TEXTURE... :( ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
