[hlcoders] Conversions and wchar_t
I'm relatively new to Source SDK (only been playing around with it for a couple of months) but have been using C++ for 2 years (mainly DirectX) through Windows of course (though temporary problem with the Boot/BCD folder being deleted, I'm running from a Linux disk on my laptop) Why is there still a few problems with char * to wchar_t problems still around, everyone always uses multibyte. And is it possible to either paste or create some more code in relation to model rendering and loading? Just in case anyones heard of it, NEVER go there, its a complete waste of time: http://www.productreview.com.au/p/dick-smith-electronics.htmlonics/ Acrethaen ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders

Tricky Dicky :) Better to go to jay car, or Turks - they have what your after - but now i am taking this topic off topic.

Re: [hlcoders] Conversions and wchar_t
It would be possible to create your own model loading code by simply making a new entity (i.e. prop_custom) and then in your client Render code, fill a mesh with the vertices, and Draw. As for custom rendering, try your own shader.

Re: [hlcoders] Conversions and wchar_t
Source uses primarily char, const char, and string_t (typedef const char) in the bulk of its code, but wchar_t is used primarily for strings that potentially use Unicode, such as VGUI's localization. I haven't been in the code for a while, but I think the conversions are accomplished by STRING( char ).

Re: [hlcoders] Conversions and wchar_t
O.k. then, well thanks, but i meant more by making a new model type, instead of using the normal types, and yes, STRING( char ) seems to do the trick.
