Hey guys,

I decided to create a VSP for the first time with MetaMod support and copied the sig scanner in the wiki. Then I found the g_EntityList or whatever (using LevelShutdown and the offset) and then the offset for the entity listener. The funny thing is, it compiles and works fine in MetaMod but crashes with the VSP. I'll post the code when I get back home, but anyone have any clues as to why this may be happening?


Thanks

I thought the signature-based function calling code was part of MM:S...

This? I think it can be used elsewhere too...

Got it to stop crashing, but nothing seems to be happening. (Sorry for the double post as well! The edit button doesn't work on my phone)

EDIT (back home now): No more crashing, properly adds the listener, but my OnEntityCreated() in my class never gets called... Here is the code:

EDIT 2: Solved it. I was retarded and added the listener when the plugin loaded instead of on levelinit.

// the code for adding the listener
if (LevelShutdownSig.is_set)
{
	void* entList = FromLevelShutdown(spt_vfuncs.GetOffset(0, "gEntList"));
	int offset = virtualfuncs->FindOffset("EntityListener");
	CUtlVector<IEntityListener*> *pListeners = (CUtlVector<IEntityListener*> *)((intptr_t)entList + offset);
	pListeners->AddToTail(this);

	// Entity listener is properly added... I checked the pListeners->Count() and it went up by 1 after adding to tail
}


// the relevant class
class serverplugin: public IServerPluginCallbacks, public IGameEventListener2, public IEntityListener
{
public:
	virtual void OnEntityCreated(CBaseEntity *pEntity);
};

// the function
void serverplugin::OnEntityCreated(CBaseEntity *pEntity)
{
	// This message never shows up :(
	Msg("Some ent created.\n");
}
