I didn't have these problems with error logs on sm 1.7.3

Should i leave the old syntax behind and start with new?
also how long is old syntax going to be supported for as i'v only learn a small part of coding over the 5months of doing small stuff.
changing syntax looks very very tedious to me :c

It will always be supported in some way for existing functions.

However, some newer functionality is already only available in methodmaps.

Errrm yea the thing is, i dont know what a methodmaps are xD.
Im such a nub

Edit:
Ok i read the wiki and i understand alittle, but im still quite new to any programming language including sourcemod but ill get it someday maybe, thanks for letting me know about old syntax.

return Plugin_Handled;

None seem to make the event accept the changes.



anyone an idea ?

Post your code.

PHP Code:

HookEvent("player_death",test_OnPlayerDeathPre,EventHookMode_Pre);
public Action test_OnPlayerDeathPre(Event event, char[] name, bool dontBroadcast)
{

    int victim = GetClientOfUserId(GetEventInt(event, "userid")); 
    int attacker = GetClientOfUserId(GetEventInt(event, "attacker")); 
    int assister = GetClientOfUserId(GetEventInt(event, "assister")); 
    char weapon[MAX_NAME_LENGTH]; //make string to get weapon name
    GetEventString(event, "weapon", weapon, sizeof(weapon)); //get weapon name

    char explosion_weapon[64]; //grab the replacement value
    Format(explosion_weapon,sizeof(explosion_weapon),"%s","weapon_ak47")
    PrintToConsoleAll("debug \t event[weapon] was set to %s",explosion_weapon);

    SetEventString(event, "weapon", explosion_weapon);
    return Plugin_Changed;

}

If this is for CS:GO, make sure that you're on the latest SM build. A recent game update broke the SetEvent* natives.

Thanks! this fixed it.

Not quite sure if this problem appears to me only or happens to someone else. Ever since I upgraded to the latest SM build, L4D2 crashes during map changes.

I've already tried all the possible things I could do:

1. Uninstall and reinstall the game. Verify game cache. (No effect)
2. Redownload Metamod:Source and Sourcemod. (Still no effect)
3. Disable any metamod and sourcemod plugins and addons, leaving the basic ones loaded. (No effect so far)
4. Redownload all metamod and sourcemod plugins, extensions, gamedatas, etc. (You already know the results)

None of them worked so far, however, when I downgrade to the latest SM 1.7 build, that problem is gone so if there is any fix you could do about it, I can wait. For now, I'm sticking back to 1.7 until 1.8 doesn't crash the game during map changes.
