About Catches unprecached models and tries to precache them to prevent crashes. This plugin addresses the rare occurrence of a well-known UTIL_SetModel crash that has existed for as long as both L4D games have been around. The crash can occur even on completely vanilla servers, but can occur more frequently on modded servers that run plugins utilizing models. If a model cannot be precached, this plugin will block UTIL_SetModel and the entity will (probably) just be invisible or be a giant ERROR sign. Disclaimer: This plugin only helps prevent crashes related to unprecached models (UTIL_SetModel crashes). If this plugin is detecting a lot of unprecached models on your server on a regular basis, there may be severe underlying issues with your server that need to be addressed. Do not use this plugin as a "global precacher" for models. When a model is late-precached, players will experience a stutter (more obvious on low-end computers), so it's best to make sure that plugins utilizing models properly precache them inside OnMapStart(). Example: PHP Code:
epz/epzminion - For the idea and solution. SourceMod Team - For continually updating/improving SourceMod. Requirements 1. SourceMod 1.10 or higher 2. DHooks 2.2.0-detours15 or higher 3. Knowledge of installing SourceMod plugins. Notes 1. I do not provide support for listen/local servers but the plugin should still work properly on them. 2. I will not help you with installing or troubleshooting problems on your part. 3. If you get errors from SourceMod itself, that is your problem, not mine. 4. MAKE SURE YOU MEET ALL THE REQUIREMENTS AND FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION GUIDE PROPERLY. Features 1. Precaches any model that is not precached prior to being used. 2. Blocks the game from setting an entity's model if the model failed to be precached. Changelog

Re: [L4D & L4D2] Late Model Precacher
This cured the crashes I had over the weekend in combination with another plugin due to one model not precaching (found that out with accellerator).
Using stripper to load the map diddn't help but this totally solved the crashes and now I see this in the error log: Code:
L 04/12/2022 - 00:10:18: SourceMod error session started |
Re: [L4D & L4D2] Late Model Precacher
What about sounds? As far as I know I always have had a crash randomly when oxygen tanks are spawned. (At least I assume so.)
For me it always was "Late precache of PrecacheSound("physics/destruction/ExplosiveGasLeak.wav" that shows up. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Sou...es/issues/3413 This is the topic where I took the assumptions from. |

I've never experienced a crash related to unprecached sound files. When sound files are unprecached, they just don't play, or they are late-precached and play after an insignificant delay. If you or anyone can provide an example of an unprecached/late-precached sound file causing a crash, then I can look into it. |
Re: [L4D & L4D2] Late Model Precacher
Can this plugin replace such plugins?
