AMX Mod X 0.15 Released

[BAILOPAN]

I am very proud to announce the immediate availability of AMX Mod X Beta 0.15.

The changelog has many awaited bug fixes and adds further support to backwards compatibility. We have worked very hard to get this release out by today.

You can jump to the Downloads Page (http://www.amxmodx.org/downloads.php) or visit the SourceForge site (http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/amxmodx/).

We are still going full steam ahead with our Roadmap: the next version will be 0.2 and will contain the next module interface, as well as fixes for all bugs found in 0.15. We do not have a release date planned as this will only rush us to make mistakes, but we hope to have it within two weeks.

Thank you for supporting AMX Mod X.

I am going to have a test IOS server up at: 66.133.232.158:27016 and maybe a test CS one at 66.133.232.158:27015

[devicenull]

Something is weird about this compiler - if I do this
sc nsx\nsx.sma
It works.. but
sc nsx\nsx.sma -onsx\nsx.sma
doesnt

[BAILOPAN]

If you want to use the 2.4 compiler, go ahead. Just do not complain about the errors it has.

[MagicShot]

Whats this?

Removed get_user_wonid.
Removed set_hitzones.

Why are you removing there options?...[/quote]

[BAILOPAN]

get_user_wonid returned 0. It's a dummy function not used even in AMX Mod.

set_hitzones does set_user_hitzones for all players and wasn't needed.

Oh I thought get_user_wonid would be nice to have though...
or is there something else that does it already?

[BAILOPAN]

get_user_authid

[MagicShot]

get_user_authid

Ok Thanx Bail...

As Always.. Your a charm.. :wink:

[rACEmic]

I think there's an error in xtrafun.inc:

stock find_entity(start_from_ent, category, value[]) {
switch (category) {
case target: return find_entity_by_target(start_from_ent, value)
case targetname: return find_ent_by_tname(start_from_ent, value)
}
return find_entity_by_class(start_from_ent, value)
}

should be:

stock find_entity(start_from_ent, category, value[]) {
switch (category) {
case target: return find_ent_by_target(start_from_ent, value)
case targetname: return find_ent_by_tname(start_from_ent, value)
}
return find_ent_by_class(start_from_ent, value)
}

Without this change xtrafun won't compile. Am I right or did I just hack it in a way to get it to compile?

[BAILOPAN]

You are indeed correct...

[BAILOPAN]

You can get the fixed xtrafun.inc from the CVS:
xtrafun.inc (http://www.tcwonline.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/amxmodx/plugins/include/xtrafun.inc?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain)

[mICKE]

I have found a thing in core.ini:
"amx_plugins addons/amxx/plugins/plugins.ini"
it shall be
"amx_plugins addons/amxx/plugins.ini"
because plugins.ini doesn't lay in plugins

EDIT: and why are there two modules.ini and two plugins.ini?
one at addons/amxx and one in /configs/

[BAILOPAN]

It's a packaging error on my part. I'll fix the packages for the new xtrafun.inc and remove the extra plugins.ini+modules.ini tomorrow.

Note: The plugins.ini and modules.ini in the basedir are the correct ones.

[XAD]

get_user_authid
Well not really... get_user_wonid returned a number, which causes problem with Steam as it is a string. Therefore get_user_wonid returns 0 for Steam users. The get_user_authid supports both but it always returns a string, ie wonid's are returned as a string of digits.

If your code depend on wonid's as numbers (ie one cell) you need to change it to use strings insted (ie array of cells).

If you still have old plugins using get_user_wonid, one simple way to fix it is to add a new function, at the top of the plugins or in one of the includes, which is called get_user_wonid but is calling get_user_authid and then return the converted string to number value of it.

We could just make a stock of it and throw it into amxmisc...

[AMXX] Module is not a valid library (file "cstrike/addons/amxx/modules/fun_amx_i386.so")L 03/16/2004 - 14:52:44: [AMXX] Make sure that modules are compatible with AMX Mod X 0.15

Without fun_amx_i386.so and cstrike_amx_i386.so everything is good

[DoubleTap]

Looks like after tonights CAL match I am going to have to fire this puppy up and see how it's working. I dare not mess with anything until then, that gives me a week to ask silly questions :)

Changelog:

AMX Mod X 0.15 - March 15, 2004
cs_set_user_vip and cs_get_user_vip fixed.
Reduced set_view lag.
It is now possible to shoot and break func_breakables.


cs_set_user_vip and cs_get_user_vip ...... i wonder how they work :)

"Reduced set_view lag." - How much?

"It is now possible to shoot and break func_breakables." I thought about doing some things in a plugin for func_breakable the other day, and i really don't get this, what does it mean?

Scarzzurs
You can see if a user is vip, and you can unset a VIP so that he can change team. You can also set someone to be VIP, although this won't change model/update scoreboard.

"It is now possible to shoot and break func_breakables." <- between releases this stopped working momentarily...

You can get the fixed xtrafun.inc from the CVS:
xtrafun.inc (http://www.tcwonline.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/amxmodx/plugins/include/xtrafun.inc?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain)

there are nothing fixed... have you forgot to fix it ?

[rACEmic]

Bailopan, you forgot to fix both the errors:

return find_entity_by_class(start_from_ent, value)
}

needs to be:

return find_ent_by_class(start_from_ent, value)
}

Until he does that, manually downloading from the CVS and fixing xtrafun.inc in this way should work.

SetSpeak is missing from vexd :O

[RuSh]

I installed AMX Mod X on my server this morning and I'm using Glibc 2.3 optimized files.

I have noticed some bugs in version 0.15.

Most damage is not showing.

Bomb countdown keeps counting on new round after T killed all CT.

Welcome motd message is not working.

top15 shows html source for last player in top15 and breaks the table.

there are some plugins I really would like to work with amx x but I cant get them to work maybe someone could help.

Plugins:
Slaylosers: http://djeyl.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=30007
Plugin Gore: http://djeyl.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=10016

Keep up the good work you guys rock! 8)

*EDIT

Please disregaurd this post

[pr0*killa]

RusH i have the same problemm and amxx is not working fully and welcomemsg.amx is not working only metamod x is working maybe we need the plugins.ini anyway? :?

I downloaded this and noticed that in the stock functions theres a few

FVec[0] = float(IVec[0])
FVec[1] = float(IVec[1])
FVec[2] = float(IVec[2])
Don't you feel it would make it a bit simpler to

for(new i=0;i<3;i++)
FVec[i] = float(IVec[i])

Anyhow I didn't know what more you guys could have added, but I think that AMXX is a step in the right direction from the dead-development of AMX Mod

EDIT: I also don't think cstrike should be included in the main amxmod.inc (The stock for get_user_money(id) should be in cstrike)

[RuSh]

Thanks BigBaller!

Some problems though:
setting amx_gore to ab works, but when using amx_gore d flag the player killed with high damage like awp, knifekill or HE becomes invisible the remaining rounds of the map.

Slaylosers does not work it is running and everything looks fine but its not killing the losing team on bomb exploded or bomb defused.

[BigBaller]

MMM

Well, I didnt make the plugins, I just recompiled them for use with AMXX, ill post the sources to both. in thier respective attached topics.


Sources posts, any experinced scripter should be able to help you out rush

The first method is the fastest method, for loops add more instructions that isn't worth it for 3 simple assignments. Plus its simpler to read. :)

[BAILOPAN]

That is correct... not only that, but it introduces a new variable. Three simple assignments are faster.

[knekter]

Nice work boys, keep up the good work!
