Re: DHooks (Dynamic Hooks - Dev Preview)
 

My ubuntu 20 vps server doesn't see the extension. What am I doing wrong, maybe I need to install some extension?

Re: DHooks (Dynamic Hooks - Dev Preview)
 

SourceMod only loads an extension if it's used by a plugin by default. Do you have a plugin installed which uses dhooks?

Re: DHooks (Dynamic Hooks - Dev Preview)
 

I believe the caching of parameters between pre and post hooks may have imposed a limit for few usecases.

Take for example the function CBaseEntity::AcceptInput(char const*, CBaseEntity*, CBaseEntity*, variant_t, int)
This function converts the value inside the variant_t union parameter to the correct type based on the entity's datadesc.
DHooks will always provide the value from the start of the hook, which will usually be a string, and not the converted type.

In case this "fix" is only applied on Windows, this would also cause inconsistencies between platforms.

Ah, yes, we could add a flag to disable the caching of pre-hook parameters explicitly? It prevents more headache when it's on by default, but an opt-out sounds useful for union params like the variant_t you're describing. Would you mind creating an issue for this on github?
