2.6.4 works with minimum effort (I needed to add one #undef.. I'd submit a patch but the bug tracker is broken :p). Py3k isn't actually recommended for production use, afaik.

I have fixed oodles of problems and finally have a decent product to show you: Viper is now available on Windows, on all engines (besides Dark Messiah)! If you so wish, you can download the unit tests I've written at the git repository.

Very interesting y4k. Also, nice yak.

Thank you!

@devicenull, can you post up the #undef you added to compile with 2.6.4?

Edit: I'm getting this error when I start up my Windows CS:S server:

[03] <FAILED> file "viper.ext.1.ep1.dll": Unable to import the Python types module to initialize Viper data

Fresh install of MM 1.8.0 and SM 1.3.0.

I'm not sure how that's possible, but I've written an alternative method to retrieving the Python data types Viper needs, which should work every time, and solve your problem. The new version is at the download link.

Recently, I started testing out the twisted library packaged with Viper. I found out that it didn't quite work... So I've fixed that. Also, I've written some fancy code to exit all Python threads without error, so plug-in unloading now works even if the plug-in uses multiple threads. Lastly, I've added some nice functionality: if you define a plugin_unload function in your plug-in, it will be called -- you guessed it -- when the plug-in is unloaded.

Thanks y4k, the extension is loading now.

[03] Viper (0.8.1): Python for SourceMod

Unfortunately, the server crashes on startup after I create my "Hello World" plugin. I've attached the mdmp file.

Hopefully it's an easy fix because I feel bad for bringing up all these bugs on something you've been working on for so long.

[theY4Kman]

Really, it's no bother. It brings me more joy to fix Viper than to go on ignorantly thinking it's perfect.

Anyways, what mod are you running? What does your plug-in look like?

[Hipster]

I'm running CS:S.

\sourcemod\plugins\helloworld\__init__.py

PHP Code:

import sourcemod

myinfo = {
    'name': "Hello, World!",
    'author': "My Name",
    'description': "Salutations, Celestial Rock!",
    'version': "1.0"
}

print "Hello, World!" 


I've just been trying what I found on the docs.

Just wondering: Where do you set the module search path?
