Its not really a bug its a missing function that cant be used in a sourcemod 1.2.0 compatible version.
This is the error im getting.

Code:

[SM] Unable to load extension "sdkhooks.ext.so": Could not find interface: IPlayerManager

Well yes, because SourceMod 1.2 is 15 months old, so you shouldn't be using it. If a newer SourceMod doesn't work with your game, file a bug on http://bugs.alliedmods.net. If one of your plugins doesn't work with a newer SourceMod, post in that plugin's topic so it can be fixed.

If it only was that easy.
Things are really complicated.
Some plugins dont work and doesn't seem to give a clearly error.
But other plugins make the server crash on certain maps only.
This only happens when i update my sourcemod.
I will loose about 6 plugins when i upgrade to make sdkhooks work and the server will become very unstable to.
So a 1.2.0 compatible version whould be welcome.

Then those 6 plugins really need to be updated. Under no circumstances should anyone be using SourceMod 1.2 anymore, which wont even work with ANY of the orange box games (TF2, DoD and soon CSS) since the last several updates.

Also, I would suggest updating your server from Window 2000 or 3.1, whatever it is that you use....

As i sayd things are really complicated.
First of all your think that i was using windows.
This is not true.
Windows means crash on some of the maps.
The error's i get are only on some of the maps and usually just crash or give no error at all.
I have runned 1.3 for a while but i preffer these 6 plugins then the 2 plugins i was hopeing to use.
About 4 plugins where misteriously crashing and dont look like the other plugin at all they are not related in any way.
I can easily update if i whould want to but i dont want to loose more plugins then i get.

There are several people on this forum who can explain how to debug crashes, so if you're actually willing to put work into it, the causes can probably be found and fixed.

when does SDKHook_PreThink() get called...I would like to replace

some OnGameFrame() code that constantly checks if players are ducking or are not moving forward

will SDKHook_PreThink() work for this?

DJ Tsunami · 05-24-2010 , 02:44 Re: [EXTENSION] SDK Hooks 1.3 (Updated 2010-05-12)

Yes, all Think functions are called every frame too.

Erik V · 05-24-2010 , 14:57 Re: [EXTENSION] SDK Hooks 1.3 (Updated 2010-05-12)

Ok, so what is the advantage to using this instead of OnGameFrame()?

DJ Tsunami · 05-24-2010 , 15:19 Re: [EXTENSION] SDK Hooks 1.3 (Updated 2010-05-12)

PreThink, as the name says, is called before OnGameFrame, and allows you to block things like attacking or jumping. Any other hook fires too late, so client prediction will make the blocking look silly.

Also, OnGameFrame is called 66 times per second, no matter what. Think functions are called for a specific entity, so when that entity is destroyed your code won't run anymore. This alleviates the server if that code only needs to run when a specific entity exists.

And, yay 600th post.
