I'm tring to convert an old source engine plugin that uses metamod to the orangebox engine those who know my SM plugin can guess what the mod is lol.

i've made quite abit of progress but i am now having trouble converting ConCommands over.

old code:

int numArgs = engine->Cmd_Argc() - 1;

and ofc this doesn't work since this type was replaced in the oangebox engine

new code:

int numArgs = args.ArgC() - 1;

rather anoyingly this desn't work either and i am now stuck >.<
the error:

1>zhcommand.cpp(191): error C2065: 'args' : undeclared identifier
1>zhcommand.cpp(191): error C2228: left of '.ArgC' must have class/struct/union
1>          type is ''unknown-type''

I will be greatful for any help.

Not sure if this will work, but what the hell: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/w...MAND_arguments

i've already been using that which is how i knew

int numArgs = engine->Cmd_Argc() - 1;

should be

int numArgs = args.ArgC() - 1;

Did you correct the function prototype though?
(Which is a few lines below on that wiki page)

i've already changed the "Registering console commands and variables" and i can't find anything for the other two to do with it.

yep i've also been using that lol but still stuck at the same piont

EDIT: Ok after looking for ages lol i've found the prototype and changed it but i still get that error but it's also created more errors as well as fixing them >.<

for example:

    int numArgs = args.ArgC - 1; // This still errors as normal
    
    int numParams = 0;
    
    for (int i = 0; i < numArgs; ++i)// From here down is shows no problem but when i try and compile it i get the error below:
    {    
        if (numParams >= paramList->Count())
            return NOT_ENOUGH_PARAMS;
            
        switch(paramList->Element(i)->type) 
        {
            case TYPE_STRING:            
                params[i] = new char[256];        
                    
                ++numParams;            
                switch (paramList->Element(i)->multi)
                {
                    case SINGLE_PARAM: 
                        strcpy((char*)params[i], args.Arg(i+1));
                    break;
                    
                    case MULTI_PARAM:
                        char buf[256];
                        strcpy(buf, args.Arg(i+1));
                        strcat(buf, " ");
                        int j;
                        for (j = i+1; j < numArgs; ++j)
                        {
                            strcat(buf, args.Arg(j+1));
                            strcat(buf, " ");
                        }
                        strcpy((char*)params[i], buf);
                        i = j;
                    break;
                }
            break;

new error:

1>zhcommand.cpp(209): error C2228: left of '.Arg' must have class/struct/union
