RE: [hlcoders] sv_pure broken for mods?
Does the problem happen if you make an hl2mp map with a cycler using
that caltrop model, then run an hl2mp linux server with that whitelist?
If so, send me email directly with the (hl2mp) .vmf file, caltrop model
files, and both (good and bad) whitelists and I should be able to repro
and fix it here.

[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Some more info that may
be useful. Finally got hlds updated via hldsupdate tool so I can try to
test locally. Seems to work perfectly fine for a windows server. I can
join as a client with or without the +check_crc from the grenade line,
as I would expect to be able to do. This appears to be isolated to the
linux server, as it is the only server we are having trouble with at the
moment(and admittedly the only server we've tried so far to get it
working on).

The clients were getting booted with this error:
Disconnect: Pure server: client has loaded extra file
[GAME]\models/grenades\caltrop\caltrop_holster.mdl. File must be
removed to play on this server..
The server both has this file and should be precaching it like
everything else. Oddly, even if I changed the grenades line to not crc
like:
models\grenades\...allow_from_disk
it was still booting clients with the same error.
According to http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Pure_Servers
under stacking, the way I'm attempting to do the models folder should
be fine, so it appears there might be 2 problems.
1) Why was it booting when the grenades hierarchy was not set to
+check_crc?
2) Why was it booting at all when the file both exists and matches on
both sides, and it
Was able to join without getting booted if I removed all the model
lines in the pure server file for now.
Is there something wrong with this?
models\... allow_from_disk
models\player\... allow_from_disk+check_crc
models\grenades\...allow_from_disk+check_crc
models\projectiles\... allow_from_disk+check_crc
models\flag\...allow_from_disk+check_crc
Even without crcing the grenades line it was complaining of the file
under the grenades folder.
sv_pure 1 on a listen server works with this defined. I'm downloading
a windows srds to test.
sv_precacheinfo shows the model on a listen server, which is expected
I suppose since it works.
117: models/grenades/caltrop/caltrop_holster.mdl (RES_FATALIFMISSING
|
RES_PRELOAD):never used
Why would we be having this problem on a linux server ?
It's being precached properly as far as I know.
#define CALTROPGRENADE_MODEL_HOLSTER
models/grenades/caltrop/caltrop_holster::mdl
void CFFGrenadeCaltrop::Precache()
{
PrecacheModel( CALTROPGRENADE_MODEL_HOLSTER );
BaseClass::Precache();
}
If we delete this model from the client as the error suggests it
complains about other models.
Anything I can do to debug this issue? It would be nice to get pure
working, but this bug is being a pain.

RE: [hlcoders] Networking Minimap entities
Take a look at dlls\player_resource.cpp and cl_dll\c_playerresource.cpp.
It has arrays of per-player data that get periodically updated. You
could add player X and Y coordinates here so you'd have minimap
coordinates.

Subject: [hlcoders] Networking Minimap entities
Hello,
I'm currently implementing a minimap that is similar to Starcraft (it
shows the whole map). The graphical part of it is done already, and Im
now working on displaying some of my game entities (such as players and
structures) on it from the client side, of course.
The problem Im facing is that a client only knows about entities in its
PVS, and therefore doesn't know if his team has built structures at the
other side of the map. Making my structures and player entities to
broadcast their current state to all clients all the time is out of
question.
So after thinking a bit about it, I figured I just needed to know 2 or 3
properties of these game elements to display them correctly on the
minimap (ie the structures team index, world position and type, and the
players team
+ position).
Now the question is: what's the best/most optimal way of communicating
these information from the server to the clients, keeping in mind that I
don't want blue team players to receive information about red team's
structures, and vice-versa?
So far I see two possible ways of doing this: using a TeamData entity
set to always transmit to clients on a specific team, or UserMessages. I
think the networked entity way is the best one, but I'm still not sure
if it's possible to send composite data structures over the network.
Ideally, I'd like my TeamData object to hold a vector of playerData_t
and a vector of structureData_t, which would be defined that way:
struct playerData_t
{
Vector pos;
int team;
};
struct structureData_t
{
Vector pos;
int team;
int type;
};
But from the look of it, it seems I can only send base data types such
as int/floats usnig the SDK's networking system. Can anyone give me some
pointers on how to achieve what I want to do in a not-too-painful way
(ie not implementing a different array for each entity property like it
is done in PlayerResources for the connected clients' pings/kills/etc).
Thanks in advance!

I'll look into the game_sdk.sln bug. When you create a mod, it also creates a directory under your [steam folder]\steamapps\sourcemods folder, so make sure to nuke the right folders under there. That will get rid of the mods in the Steam wnidow. hen you do that, the mods won't show up in the Steam window anymore.

RE: [hlcoders] Shader fallbacks
You have to manually determine what platform your shader will work on,
and what it will fall back to. This is done in the SHADER_FALLBACK
section of code.
Usually, a DX9 shader would do this:
SHADER_FALLBACK
{
if( g_pHardwareConfig-GetDXSupportLevel() 90 )
return the name of the next shader you want it
to try;
return 0;
}
Then whatever shader you point to there would have a similar block. For
example, if it was a DX8 shader, then the SHADER_FALLBACK could look
like this:
SHADER_FALLBACK
{
if( g_pHardwareConfig-GetDXSupportLevel() 80 )
return the name of the next shader you want it
to try;
return 0;
}
and so on..

Subject: [hlcoders] Debugging HL2DM Sdk
Anyone try to debug this ?
It will not allow me to go into the hl properties to add the debug
options.
Client or Server projects.
Box comes up and says unspecified error
Any ideas what might cause this?

RE: [hlcoders] Dedicated server for mods broken by new steam update
Yeah, we should include that. Will do for the next SDK update. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Patrick Flanagan Sent: Tuesday, February 22, 2005 11:50 AM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Dedicated server for mods broken by new steam update Looks like the Make a DM mod option in the SDK doesn't actually include a ModEvents.res file.

For some reason, even though the mod was created as a DM mod, it wasn't reading the animation mdl's from DM. Extracting them manually and copying them to the mod directory fixed that. This is very strange because the animations were only not working on dedicated servers, on listen servers they worked fine. The death notice thing I talked about earlier still sporadically happens. Sometimes (so far I've only seen it on dedicated servers) it just reports all the player deaths as a player named unconnected suiciding no matter who dies or who. I'm not sure what the cause of that is. On Mon, 21 Feb 2005 11:12:39 -0800, Alfred Reynolds [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I don't know about that problem sorry, haven't had any reports of it either.

Before the Steam update, I copied my mod into /SteamApps/username/source dedicated server/ and then when I launched the Dedicated Server program from within Steam, the mod would show up in the list of games that you could run a dedicated server with. After the Steam update, with no changes at all to the mod, the mod no longer shows up in the dropdown of available games in the Dedicated Server program and if I try to start it manually via the command line then it doesn't work. I tried testing this by using the updated SDK to create a new DM mod. I did not change any of the files created by the DM mod except for the game name in GameInfo.txt so I could tell it apart from the others. I compiled the DM code to put in the /bin directory for that mod but did not modify the code at all. I then copied this mod directory into /SteamApps/username/source dedicated server/ like I had done before and it showed up in the list of available games to run a dedicated server for. When I ran the dedicated server using the unmodified DM mod, none of the animations worked at all and whenever anyone was killed it would just say that player unconnected suicided.

RE: [hlcoders] filesystem_steam.dll
You should only have 1 steam.dll per installation, and it should be in your base steam folder (where steam.exe is). If you have a steam.dll up in your half-life 2\bin directory, you'll be in trouble when there's an update. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Scott McNaught Sent: Thursday, January 13, 2005 12:43 AM To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: [hlcoders] filesystem_steam.dll Hi guys, I started a full time job at the start of this week, so I havent been doing anything since the last steam update...

RE: [hlcoders] Respawn Bug MP SDK
Doing AddEffects( EF_NOINTERP ) when the player respawns will fix this in most cases.

If not, heres a short description of it: When you kill a player and when he is about to respawn, you can see that the playermodel is created first above his corpse (ragdoll, what you wish to call it). And then you can actually see how the playermodel is moved to the spawnpoint and ends the rest of the spawn code there. Yes, it moves rather fast but you can easily predict where he is going to spawn and it Can be seen rather easily in a small map where you have visual range to the spawnpoint(s). I have tried to trace it, but with not much success. (*bump*) Tried to look in the different functions that involve playerdeath and respawning. Both in CBasePlayer and CSDKPlayer. Can anyone confirm this, or is just my SDK/Code/Computer/Friends Computer? Or even perhaps a solution? Hehe :-) Thanks!

RE: [hlcoders] SDK issues: a list
Thanks for the list, this is helpful. The dropdown box entries are shared with the configurations in Hammer, so you can remove them in Hammer.

Some have been repeated elsewhere, but it might be a good idea to start a list for Valve's sake. :) If you've found any others, feel free to post them here. * Dropdown box in SDK window doesn't resize with window: Trivial. * run_mod.bat chokes on paths with spaces: This appears to be an issue with Steam itself, not the SDK. I like having my code and such under My Documents, which is all fine and dandy with the Create A Mod wizard. However, when you run the batch file, Steam chokes and dies saying it can't find the gameinfo.txt file in C:\Documents. Doesn't look like it handles spaces in the -game parameter very well. * Source control: This has been mentioned on the list already, but I figured I'd throw it in here too. The solutions the SDK ships with are bound to Valve's SCC source, which appears to be rather difficult to remove or replace with your own versioning system. * Can't edit dropdown box entries: As far as I can tell, there's no way to add or remove entries the Create a Mod wizard adds in the SDK dropdown box. This is a bit problematic, as it makes it near-impossible to have multiple developers working on the same source (i.e. with some SCC solution). You also can't get rid of them, so I have about a half-dozen entries in there I've managed to create and can't get rid of now. :/ An update to fix these ASAP would be _greatly_ appreciated.
