Hello,

I am having some Problems attaching Effects/Colors to Hats:

Whenever data[0] is Set (Effect) and data[1] not (Color), it attaches the Effect, but removes the existing Color.
When I try to Set data[1] without data[0], it doesn't do anything (Hat remaings unchanged).

What's wrong with the Code?

data[0] = Effect Index
data[1] = TF2 Color Code

PHP Code:

new Handle:hItem = TF2Items_CreateItem(OVERRIDE_ALL);
        new numAttr = 0;
        
        TF2Items_SetItemIndex(hItem, defIndex);
        TF2Items_SetLevel(hItem, GetRandomInt(0, 100));
        TF2Items_SetQuality(hItem, 5);
        TF2Items_SetClassname(hItem, className);
        
        if(StringToInt(data[0]) > -1)
        {
            TF2Items_SetAttribute(hItem, 0, 134, StringToFloat(data[0]));
            numAttr++;
            
        }
        
        if(StringToInt(data[1]) > -1)
        {
            TF2Items_SetAttribute(hItem, 1, 142, StringToFloat(data[1]));
            numAttr++;
        }
        
        TF2Items_SetNumAttributes(hItem, numAttr);
        itemOverride = hItem;
        
        return Plugin_Changed; 


Any help would be appreciated.

Do I even need to point out that Valve doesn't like it when you do that?

[pcmaster]

I am not going to release the Plugin in public, also the Attributes are there in the official List, so anyone could edit the TF2Items Config and do that...

asherkin had this to say on a topic extremely similar to this one:

Use TF2Items_SetFlags thingy and add flag 'PRESERVE_ATTRIBUTES'
TF2items.inc

PHP Code:

/**
 * Sets the flags to determine what the item will override on the GiveNamedItem.
 * Use the OVERRIDE_ defines to set what you will be changing.
 *
 * @param hItem   Handle to the TF2Items object that we'll be operating with.
 * @param iFlags  Flags used to specify what to override.
 * @noreturn
 */
native TF2Items_SetFlags(Handle:hItem, iFlags); 


PRESERVE_ATTRIBUTES allows you add attributes to items with attributes example item with unusual effect or item with paint or item with 100% more damage.

I've used in my plugin smiliar to your this.

PHP Code:

  hItem = TF2Items_CreateItem(OVERRIDE_ALL);
  TF2Items_SetClassname(hItem, classname);  
  TF2Items_SetItemIndex(hItem, iItemDefinitionIndex);
  TF2Items_SetQuality(hItem, quality[client]);
  TF2Items_SetLevel(hItem, level[client]);
  TF2Items_SetNumAttributes(hItem, 1);
  TF2Items_SetAttribute(hItem, 0, 134, particle[client]);
  TF2Items_SetFlags(hItem, OVERRIDE_ATTRIBUTES|OVERRIDE_CLASSNAME|OVERRIDE_ITEM_QUALITY|OVERRIDE_ITEM_DEF|PRESERVE_ATTRIBUTES);
  return Plugin_Changed; 


particle[client] = number of particle
quality[client] = number of quality
They are both floats
level[client] = level of item

[asherkin]

Just use this instead of calling TF2Items_SetFlags at all.

TF2Items_CreateItem(OVERRIDE_ALL|PRESERVE_ATTRIBUTES);

[pcmaster]

The Problem with Preserve Attributes is that if I only attach an Effect, nothing happens - the Hat remains unaffected.
Only when I define a color too, it's working ...

[asherkin]

Then you're doing something else wrong.

[pcmaster]

Might it be that another Plugin is using the TF2Items_OnGiveNamedItem Forward and manipulating Items?

Type in console

sm plugins unload_all
later
sm plugins load (.smx file name of your unusuals plugin)

Tell us after you do so if same thing happens or not.
