Today's CSS update changed the WeaponDrop signature, anyone know how to retrieve the new signature?

This uses virtual offsets, not signatures. Depending on who has time first today, me or psychonic will update the repository.

The version in the repository does, but it's lacking some features of the currently released version.

I'm almost sure you are referring to CSWeaponDrop. This uses Weapon_Drop, which has not changed.

you have too many databases in your databases.cfg

As per CrimsonGT's post on using SDKHooks to prevent a client from predicting an event. He mentions prehooking PreThink, does he mean just SDKHook_PreThink or am I missing something entirely?

This works a bit better then using OnPlayerRunCmd. However, the client still predicts the event, just less is displayed.

public OnClientDisconnect(client)
{
	if (IsClientInGame(client))
	{
		SDKUnhook(client, SDKHook_PreThink, PreThinkHook);
	}
}

public OnClientPutInServer(client)
{
	SDKHook(client, SDKHook_PreThink, PreThinkHook);
}

public PreThinkHook(client)
{
	new Buttons = GetClientButtons(client);

	if (Buttons & IN_ATTACK2)
	{
		Buttons &= ~IN_ATTACK2;
		PrintToChat(client, "Muhahahahahaha!");
		SetEntProp(client, Prop_Data, "m_nButtons", Buttons);
	}
}

I really hope I didn't do this wrong (this is just an example of what I'm trying to do).

No, that's right. I'm not positive, but I don't believe there's a way to full bypass the client's prediction from the server. The client and server share some code, and the client has no idea that some could possibly be different than what it has. PreThink just happens before OnPlayerRunCmd so the prediction is corrected sooner between what the stock client code expected versus what the server code did.

Side note: you don't actually have to manually unhook on client disconnect. All hook for a client/entity are automatically removed on disconnect/destruction.

Works for me, thanks

another side note:
how many times do you have OnClientDisconnected fire by an already disconnected player?
if (IsClientConnected()) seems kinda pointless in that code bit.

Is that the "SDKHook_OnTakeDamage" function doesn't work?
