My czero servers are still not fully operating.
I have replaced metamod to 1.21-AM and amx tot 1.8.2.

Yet half of my plugins dont seem to work like they should or just dont work at all.

I have tried replacing my cstrike amx modules to the 1.76D version of amx but this didnt fix my problem.

server logs arent really clear about the problems neighter, altough some plugins give lots of problems.
also have problems with get_pcvar, something seems to be changed to it i think and its not working properly anymore:

L 03/20/2013 - 12:56:50: Invalid CVAR pointer

L 03/20/2013 - 12:56:50: [AMXX] [0] napalm_nades.sma::event_round_start (line 289)

green chat doesnt work anymore neighter at all and in many plugins get_pcvar isnt working properly.


and many other plugins dont work properly aswell, are you sure that its related to the plugin and not some config in my server or something else related to the server?

[YamiKaitou]

Seeing as you have not provided anything about the other plugins and only that 1 error message, your issue is related to that plugin. We cannot answer other issues you have not made us aware of

[striker07]

I think its a problem with amx becous it started showing this when i installed version 1.8.2,
Did something change with register_cvar || get_pcvar_... ?

It always happens on round start event:

console logs:

L 03/20/2013 - 23:27:26: World triggered "Round_Start"

And the usage is correct:

PHP Code:

new Float:g_nade_give_time;
new cvar_spawn_nade_delay;
 
public plugin_init()
{
    register_logevent("EventRoundStart", 2, "1=Round_Start");
 
    cvar_spawn_nade_delay = register_cvar("hnsxp_spawn_nade_delay", "11.0");
}
 
public EventRoundStart()
{
    g_nade_give_time = get_pcvar_float(cvar_spawn_nade_delay); // line 705
} 


[YamiKaitou]

Does the cvar even exist?

[^SmileY]

Its an normal problem, you used a get_cvar_pointer or get_pcvar_pointer its safe to use only in HLDS native cvars, like sv_restart and others..

For get a correctly cvars from anoter plugin, use a register_cvar with a same cvar in firt and others plugins.

I tested and concludes its better to use register_cvar("hnsxp_spawn_nade_delay") for example, and get_pcvar_num normally

No cvar isnt registered by server for some reason :s

What do you mean? i'm only getting cvars in the plugin, from the same plugin, not an external plugin or hlds server cvar.
Look at the example i posted in my previous post, thats how its used when the error shows.

In the napalm_nades or nade modes plugin, the native is used with clamp:

PHP Code:

new variable;
 
public blabla(this, that, whatever)
{
    variable = clamp(get_pcvar_num(my registered cvar from same plugin, minimum cvar vallue, maximum cvar vallue);
} 


There is also a problem with making colored text, with register_clcmd and some cvars are not being registered for some reason,
when i go ingame and check the cvar it sais:
[AMXX] Unknown cvar: my_cvar

Spoiler

colorprint:

21/2013 - 23:40:04: Plugin called message_begin with an invalid message id (0).
L 03/21/2013 - 23:40:04: [AMXX] Displaying debug trace (plugin "spawncontrol_invasion.amxx")

L 03/21/2013 - 23:40:04: [AMXX] [1] spawncontrol_invasion.sma::Ad (line 1820)

Once more, it worked before without problems and stopped after the updates came:

PHP Code:

stock fnColorPrint(index, const Msg[], any:...) {
 new Buffer[190], Buffer2[192];
 formatex(Buffer2, charsmax(Buffer2), "^x04[%s] ^x01%s", g_szPluginPrefix, Msg);
 vformat(Buffer, charsmax(Buffer), Buffer2, 3);
 if (!index) {
  for (new i = 1; i <= g_iMaxPlayers; i++) {
   if (!is_user_connected(i) || is_user_bot(index))
    continue;
   message_begin(MSG_ONE_UNRELIABLE, g_iMsgSayText,_, i);
   write_byte(i);
   write_string(Buffer);
   message_end();
  }
 }
 else {
  if (!is_user_connected(index) || is_user_bot(index))
   return;
  message_begin(MSG_ONE, g_iMsgSayText,_, index);
  write_byte(index);
  write_string(Buffer);
  message_end();
 }
} 


Register_clcmd:

PHP Code:

public plugin_init{
register_clcmd("say shop", "Invasion_menu", _, "open the shopmenu");
register_clcmd("say /shop", "Invasion_menu", _, "open the shopmenu");
} 


And when i recompiled my plugin, the size of the plugin was downsized from 42kB to 20kB so I'm pretty sure there are many other things that stopped working since the update.
The evidence is undeniable imo

I can't seem to reproduce the issues you're describing. The code you gave for registering a cvar and using get_pcvar_float when a round starts works fine here on a Linux CZ server.

Could you please show the output of amxx plugins and and amxx version?

Also, the smaller plugin size that you are seeing is very much intentional and shouldn't be a problem. The compiler used to produce 32-bit and 64-bit code (for AMD64 servers). With 1.8.2, we decided to finally remove the 64-bit code generation since AMD64 servers haven't been supported in a long time. So the compiled plugin size is going to be much smaller.

L 03/20/2013 - 12:56:50: Invalid CVAR pointer

Its a get_cvar_pointer for me.

>> g_iMaxPlayers ?

Post full code please

ps. i had a similar problem but after the amxmodx removes amd 64 support, its solved using a stable version of amxmodx, try to not use amxmodx HG builds
