[hlcoders] Bringing up the main menu?
I'm sure this topic has been mentioned many times on this list, but I missed it all But, is there any way to bring up the main menu via code? I mean, some other way of bringing it up, instead of the ESC key. We have a mostly mouseable UI, and we'd like to make a HUD button bring up the main menu. I've searched the engine interface high and low, and it seems that there is no clean way to do it, though, perhaps it can be done by hacking the VGUI, but I'd rather just do it the way the engine does. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
Re: [hlcoders] Why VectorNormalize?
VectorNormalize is Quake legacy code. I have never worked with Half-life 1, so, I'm not sure if anything has changed, but, VectorNomalize, VectorMA VectorSubtract and etc are in all versions of Quake, as well as the code in low level routines, like "in_main.cpp" Replacing this code with a more C++ friendly version would require drastic changes everywhere in the engine, and be more of a pain than a benefit. I haven't yet done much vector math in HL2, but I do believe that the Vector class has C++ style functions for this? Jorge Rodriguez wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What are talking about with respect to "change"? Change from what version to what version? Looks like it's always been that way. Half-Life 1. In any case, you can add another member function without worrying about engine binary compatibility if you want. Why do you say that? Seems to me that if you change the function addresses it would surely cause lots of crashes in the engine. -- Jorge "Vino" Rodriguez ___ 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

[hlcoders] Pipes.cpp assertion?
Hello all I'm wondering if any of you sporadically get an assertion from pipes.cpp? This started happening in our mod a little while ago, and we naturally thought that it was something that we were doing, so we've been pulling our hair out trying to debug it. Desperate, we created a new mod project, and compiled with fresh code. And and it still happens! We were relieved to find this out, but its going to get old real fast during the rest of our development. Anybody have any ideas? Obviously, by the callstacks below, it is Steamdoes anyone know if a recent update caused this? Can we turn off Steam asserts? we are running with: -dev -sw -allowdebug It happens sporadically, but you can always duplicate it by disabling your network while the game is running. And, of course, it doesn't affect the game in release mode. pipes.cpp: There is no code location and the callstack is: steamclient.dll!103d861e() steamclient.dll!103def8b() steamclient.dll!103c140b() ServerBrowser.dll!1e73f04a() ServerBrowser.dll!1e774bcc() ServerBrowser.dll!1e738018() ServerBrowser.dll!1e7953f5() vgui2.dll!0d7fb398() vgui2.dll!0d8009b8() vgui2.dll!0d7fd56e() vgui2.dll!0d7fcdbe() engine.dll!0db45f68() engine.dll!0db31012() engine.dll!0d9e3be7() engine.dll!0da6fe86() engine.dll!0da7a9dc() engine.dll!0da7b073() engine.dll!0da85b75() engine.dll!0da85c62() engine.dll!0da85cff() engine.dll!0db2605c() engine.dll!0db25c27() MaterialSystem.dll!0d58d135() engine.dll!0daa58fb() engine.dll!0db25eae() engine.dll!0db25ce4() engine.dll!0db25cef() engine.dll!0db25d8c() launcher.dll!1000369b() launcher.dll!10007f70() launcher.dll!10007f70() launcher.dll!100057f8() And then another always occurs when the assertion is ignored, and "quit" is typed into the console. in steamclient.cpp: steamclient.dll!103e352c() engine.dll!0db05684() engine.dll!0da7a14d() engine.dll!0db238dd() engine.dll!0db25e48() engine.dll!0db25cfa() engine.dll!0db25d8c() launcher.dll!1000369b() launcher.dll!10007f70() launcher.dll!10007f70() launcher.dll!100057f8() ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
