This is the NinjaRope plugin for AMX by SpaceDude (modified by Ludwig van). AFAIK it should work on all HL mods so I didn't choose a mod.

I just tried to convert it to AMXX but I know that I didn't do that well.

All credits go, of course, go to SpaceDude (original author) and Ludwig van (made some changes, I used his version). The original Thread goes here.
Also a big thanks goes to BAILOPAN who helped me with a problem!

Version 1.2X3: Complete re-port of the original plugin. Did too many mistakes before to track them back.
Version 1.2X2: Changed from log_to_file() to log_amx()
Version 1.2X: Just converted to AMXX - some code borrowed from includes/xtrafun.inc as I should not use xtrafun.inc according to posting rules.

Done, I think.

- If the original author requests that it be put under their control or removed, their request will be honored.

Not yet.

- You must not use amxmod.inc - only use amxmodx.inc instead.

OK.

- You must not use Vexd or XtraFun modules - use the AMX Mod X modules C-S/Engine/Fun instead.

Only thing I could think of, because I took some things from xtrafun.inc - could you help me with this point?

- Don't hardcode paths like amxx/custom; use the get_configsdir native instead

Yes.

- Use log_amx instead of log_to_file

Done in Version 1.2X2. (I hope it works like this ...)

Shouldn't this be called Ninja Rope so as not to be confused with HookMod which is a MM Mod ?

Didn't think about the name well enough ...
Of course you're right - I just called it "Hook", because the .sma file was called "amx_ejl_spacedudehook.sma" by Ludwig van.

Plugin title and description updated.

Do I need to make any further changes to get the plugin accepted?
I'll call for ya help if I need ...

Edit: I broke it up completely ... The webcompiler said there was no error, but my compiler (@linux) brakes completely saying:

xargs: ./sc: terminated by signal 11

More to read in the attached file which occured after the compiler crashed ...

does this work or not

[Hangman5386]

Unfortunately it does not. And I got no clue what went wrong either.
When you just compile the old .sma for amx, it works IIRC. But I had no luck porting this one.

ok i know the problem but its up to oyu to fix it because i have projects of my own to attend to... it has to do with bit values, just look through all your code and find a command that takes an arguement such as something like "csdm_enable 1" (from the deathmatch mod), and then find where it tries to read that arguement. Thats where your problem is. See what happens if you comment that part out, and if you really need i then i suggest you rewrite the function completly. gl!

[Hangman5386]

Thanks alot for analyzing the problem!
Well - I'm a bit too dumb to do the researching on the problem you mentioned so I decided to re-port the whole plugin. So here it is!
New: It works.
Even tho there is an error, the plugin works for me.

But the file has only 59 lines for me.

Someone could try accepting this plugin now. ;)

[megamandos]

well... send me a copy of the newly pored plugin and i'll see what i can do to fix that error for you
