#ifdef WIN32

PyList_SetItem(newpath, 4, PyString_FromString(path_string));

delete [] path_string;

// SetObject increases the refcnt by one
PySys_SetObject("path", newpath);
Py_DECREF(newpath);

So, the module path ends up being:

1. '/path/to/plugin'
2. '/sourcemod/extensions/viper/lib'
3. '/sourcemod/extensions/viper/lib/lib-dynload'
4. '/sourcemod/extensions/viper/lib/site-packages'
5. '/sourcemod/extensions/viper/lib/plat-linux2' or '/sourcemod/extensions/viper/lib/plat-win'

Thanks y4k

what everything can done by this port of python?

[theY4Kman]

I have the API documentation up at http://y4kstudios.com/sourcemod/viper/docs/, but so far you can do everything that doesn't require usermessages, menus, or SDKTools. So an IRC Relay, messing with entity net props, etc. It's not quite up to feature parity with SourceMod, but it's getting there.

The server crashes when the server has eventscripts with this.

[theY4Kman]

What engine/mod are you using? I've tested EventScripts and Viper on the Orange Box and Episode 1 engine (TF2 and CS:S).

I tried it on HL2DM. it crashes whenever the level changes. A "Assertion Failed: CWorkThreadPool::StopWorkThreads: Some threads required forcible termination." message shows up before it crashes with a memory could not be read error.

Can you make an example for popup and messages to send ? I'm writing scripts at all in Eventscripts Python now ...

Ah, I can understand why that error sounds reasonable. I'd have to test around in the same environment to fix it, which I shall add to the todo list ;)

Unfortunately, I have not written those libraries for Viper, yet (you're referring to SourceMod's menus and usermessages libraries, I assume). They're on their way, though.

Has anything been made using your Viper Extension yak?
