UnlockBlock - Disable unlock weapons and cosmetic items.

[asherkin]

It's dead, don't even try and use it.
------------------------------------------

Quite a simple one this time, provides three convars.


tf_allow_unlocks - Unlockable Weapons.
tf_allow_cosmetics - Hats and Misc Items.
tf_allow_action_items - Action Items.


All convars default to 1, just set to 0 to block the items.

I made this due to being unhappy with how the current plugins that do this work, this ext actually makes it seem to the server like the client has unequipped the item.

[FaTony]

Nice one.

[Matheus28]

Do set hats count as cosmetic?

[asherkin]

Do set hats count as cosmetic?
Yes.
It's basically hats+misc items.

[Matheus28]

What about a cvar for set hats?

[asherkin]

Fixed the Linux version, had a typo in the gamedata.

What about a cvar for set hats?
I'll think about the best way to implement this. Do note that this doesn't just make the hats invisible, the players will not get the set bonuses.

[Mecha the Slag]

Neat, this means I won't have to bother with an advanced plugin. Good job!

[Flyflo]

On my server, the extension works great (no unlocks and no cosmetics) except for the spy's watches, am I the only one ?

Server running on linux and SM 1.4.0 rev3165.

[xomp]

Haha bro, you have answered the whine of so many players. Good work!

[Jiffs]

Great plugin, but

I too have this problem. asherkin, please fix this.

[asherkin]

Considering it's quite a valid bug, I'm glad it got reported.
The original report just got forgotten under a mountain of IRL stuff.

[Jiffs]

Hi again.

1) I found a new bug. On the players displayed a medal "Grizzled Veteran" (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Grizzled_Veteran). Mercenary (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Mercenary) and Soldier of Fortune (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Soldier_of_Fortune) - 100% is not visible, but Primeval Warrior (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Primeval_Warrior) medal I could not check.

2) I'm not sure this is a bug or not, but after the death demomen with him falls Scottish Resistance (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Scottish_Resistance). With other classes of such problems are not found.

http://img267.**************/img267/7647/cpgravelpit0006.th.jpg (http://img267.**************/i/cpgravelpit0006.jpg/)

3) And again, I'm not sure this is a bug or not, but during the observation of the players, they can see the icons duel (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Dueling_Mini-Game) and noise maker (http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Noise_Maker).

This extension not removing weapons, just replaces it with standard.

That's a bug in TF2. It will happen on every server.

[asherkin]

Updated to fix some items not being reverted.

[Leonardo]

nya! :3

[Zephyrus]

i think deleting hats and weapons from the items.txt is an easier way to do this :)

[Boylee]

Very nice plugin, tried this after trying tNoUnlocksPls v0.0.9 and I have to say it was much easier. I might miss the ability to be able to be able to toggle some weapons on and off but for sheer ease of use this takes the cake.

Thank you sir, I salute you.

[noodleboy347]

This should add a tag to the server or something so we can find good servers (or is there already a tag?)

[gnumsploitz]

Looks like the TF2 update today broke something with this extension?

22:36:02 File: vanillaweps.ext.2.ep2v.so
Loaded: No (/opt/tf2/orangebox/tf/addons/sourcemod/extensions/vanillaweps.ext.2.ep2v.so: undefined symbol: _Unwind_Resume)

Edit: The same error has been posted and fixed in this extensions' thread: http://forums.alliedmods.net/showpost.php?p=1450961&postcount=12

[Cuz]

asherkin is it "Offsets" or a update we need ?

[gnumsploitz]

Perhaps pheadxdll can shed some light with the method he used to update/fix his fire huntsman in the air extension.

[asherkin]

They are totally different, the undefined symbol error affected all C++ plugins on Linux.
The reason this hasn't been updated yet has nothing to do with that.

Quite a bit changed with the item system, and stuff in this extension needs rewriting.

[IRJustman]

Was looking for something to disable a very specific action item (the dueling minigame) and this item comes the closest to it. Is there a way to make this mod only block certain equipables or is there something already out there that I can use so neither this gentlemen nor I have to reinvent the wheel?

Thanks!

[saiyaboy]

The plugin is broken :(

[snowyiet]

Please fix this. I don't like hosting a server with unlocks. Thank you.

[Gahruff]

So is this plugin up to date? or is it going to be made up to date?

Thanks

[eraserhead]

Would be awesome if this plugin could be fixed. Anyone know of an alternative?

[asherkin]

Try these new builds: http://vphysics.limetech.org/?project=vanillaweps (latest at the top).
Windows seems to work, Linux was done with guesswork and needs someone to test it.

[eraserhead]

Just tested it on our private linux server and it works fine. You are the king Asherkin!!! :)

[Gahruff]

Works like a charm, thank you so so much [:

[Thrawn2]

Howdy!
Can you please add a forward like
forward Action:UnlockBlock_ItemHasBeenUpdated(iQualit y, iIDI);

I could switch tNoUnlocksPls to use this then, making everything so much nicer.
I'd really appreciate it.

Proposed patch is attached.

edit: the iQuality would be useful to block strange weapons.
edit 2: oh, adding iClient would be useful too ;)

[Cuz]

Thank You asherkin ! http://www.olderthandos.us/phpBB3/images/smilies/we_are_not_worthy.gif

[asherkin]

Yay an update!

Adds a forward for plugins to use and moved the logic for the 3 convars that were provided to a separate plugin.

[Thrawn2]

you sire! are awesome. donated.

[Datenkralle]

It not works for linux:

[asherkin]

It not works for linux:

Without the actual error message I can't even begin to help you.

[Datenkralle]

Ok, i used now your Snapshotversion: 1.0.1-hg13.tar.gz (http://vphysics.limetech.org/vanillaweps-1.0.1-hg13-linux.tar.gz) for linux.
And it works. Something its wrong with you "download - version" (first linked).

And it works. Something its wrong with you "download - version" (first linked).

They contain the exact same binary since there haven't been any code changes since the last release, the release zip is just both platform's snapshots packaged together along with a compiled copy of the plugin.

[asherkin]

Updated for today's update (gamedata change only).

[asherkin]

Sorry guys, last update didn't quite do it, binaries have changed as well now.

The new update broke this.
Any news on a fix/workaround?

[Screaming_Alpha]

Broken for me as well, I'm sure Asherkin will get to this one soon. I have a feeling, with the last update, he has been very busy fixing a lot of plugins/ext. for us.
Thank you Asherkin for all that you do.

It's a magical number that gets bigger with every dumb post posted in this thread, and smaller with each donation (http://limetech.org/donate/) and fennec picture sent to asherkin.

[WebNoob]

Ok....is there anything we can do to get this fixed? Is there anyone willing to take this on for a fee? (although, I sent a $25 donation the author's way last week in hopes that would be enough to get us an update, but he must be busy with other things)

If a competent coder wants to get this fixed for a (reasonable) fee, please contact me.

I hear ya - but these guys have lives too. Having to re-code everything everytime Valve decides to change something can't be fun - especially when there are probably new projects they'd like to be working on, instead of going back to fix something that was working fine before.

I'm sure it'll get done soon - asherkin's one of the good guys. :up:

[asherkin]

Ugh, fixing this is painful, just letting you guys know it's still on my to-do list.
Thrawn: Unfortunately, I'm going to have to break the API I added, Valve's new system is considerably more complex. Although, if I think of a non-breaking way, I'll use it, might need to call the forward multiple times per-item or something.

[Thrawn2]

No worries. Since i've split all the different methods used to strip/replace weapons into different modules, these are pretty easy to maintain. So don't wrap your head around breaking the api :wink:

E.g. the vanilla-weps module currently looks like this:

...blabla...
public bool:OnClientCanUseItem(iClient, iItemDefinitionIndex, slot, iQuality) {
if(!g_bCoreAvailable || !tNUP_IsEnabled() || !tNUP_UseThisModule())
return true;

if(tNUP_BlockStrangeWeapons() && iQuality == QUALITY_STRANGE) {
tNUP_AnnounceBlock(iClient, iItemDefinitionIndex);
return false;
}

if(tNUP_BlockSetHats() && tNUP_IsSetHatAndShouldBeBlocked(iItemDefiniti onIndex)) {
tNUP_AnnounceBlock(iClient, iItemDefinitionIndex);
return false;
}

if(tNUP_IsItemBlocked(iItemDefinitionIndex)) {
tNUP_AnnounceBlock(iClient, iItemDefinitionIndex);
return false;
}

return true;
}

[Riosha]

My server crashed, when level changed because of this plugin, but I want to have it on my server. Anyone know, what is the problem with it?

[asherkin]

This extension isn't currently supported.

[Riosha]

This extension isn't currently supported.

You mean, I can't use this plugin? :<

[404UserNotFound]

So, how goes the rewrite? Any progress?

I had heard something about a CVAR in TF2 that when set, blocks all unlockable weapons from being used.

I had also noticed that in the coding of VS Saxton Hale, the plugin uses some switch functions to change attributes on certain weapons that a player has equipped.

This is the "MakeNoHale" function from the VS Saxton Hale plugin. I've commented out some of the Hale-related stuff that we don't need to worry about.

public Action:MakeNoHale(Handle:hTimer,any:clientid)
{
new client=GetClientOfUserId(clientid);
if (!IsValidClient(client) || !IsPlayerAlive(client)) /*|| VSHRoundState==2 || client==Hale)*/
{
return Plugin_Continue;
}

/* SetVariantString("");
AcceptEntityInput(client, "SetCustomModel");

ChangeClientTeam(client, Team);
SetEntityRenderColor(client, 255, 255, 255, 255);
if (!VSHRoundState)
HelpPanel2(client); */

}
return Plugin_Continue;
}Could a plugin that uses similar code be created to block unlockable weapons? What I'm thinking in my head right now is something like this:

1. Hook into "player_spawn" and "post_inventory_application".

2. Add in the proper code similar to what I posted above, to both events, then set up the coding to switch weapons if the ID of the weapon is the ID of any and all unlockable weapons. This of course would have be organized by weapon slot, and each unlockable would need it's own switch function.

3. Set the switch function for each unlockable to remove said unlockable and spawn the equivalent Stock weapon for that slot (i.e. replace the Winger with the Scout's Stock Pistol).

It'd be a lot of coding, but I think it could be done. Hell, I could probably rig something up in a couple of hours.

[jasonfrog]

Any chance of resurrecting this fine extension?
