[Solved] How do I use GameConfGet(Class)Offset?

<VeCo> · **Author**

I'm trying to get the needed offsets without hardcoding them.

In specific, getting the owner of a weapon in Ham_Item_Deploy.
That would be m_pPlayer, or 41.

I tried to find it in the gamedata files, there is one "m_pPlayer" in "common.games/entities.games/cstrike/offsets-cbaseplayeritem.txt",
but it has a value of 180 ??????

PHP Code:


			
new id = get_pdata_cbase(ent, GameConfGetClassOffset(gameConfig, "CBasePlayerItem", "m_pPlayer"),4)

That, of course, crashes the server and I can't really find "41" in there.

How exactly am I supposed to use these gamedata offsets to retrieve the correct value in a plugin?

Or hardcoding them is fine? ugh.........

In gamedata files you will find full offsets, what you usually used before were converted so you can use them with the old pdata natives.
You can do the conversion manually to see that it is in fact the same offset. Get the window value(not linux), which is 164. Since it's a weapon offset you are going to divide by 4 => 164 / 4 = 41

I'm not sure what native you are going to use to retrieve the offset from the gamedata tho, never tried it.

Code:

get_ent_data_entity(weapon, "CBasePlayerItem", "m_pPlayer");
