At least your other plugin works again.

I don't know why you're getting the missing signatures messages in console. Plugins don't usually change signatures, but extensions do...if you're using playerslots, are you perhaps using other extensions too? It's possible some other extension is detouring those functions. I think the command is "sm exts list"

I also wanna know which signature is the wrong that's complaining "could not find address for detour". I'll have to figure that out later.

I don't know whether playerslots is working on Windows. Martijn confirmed the .so he posted has functioning playerslots, and I *think* I found the right signatures and offsets on Windows, and I don't think it requires a new binary of downtown2 like it did for Linux...but I haven't tested it so I can't confirm one way or the other.

Hmm. I looked at GetDifficulty. It's very short, so the sig requires bytes that will inevitably change. Worse, those bytes are actually an address. Which makes me wonder...what version of Windows are you using? If you're using Vista or above, is it possible that ASLR is modifying that address when the dll is loaded? My server runs on XP (yeah, yeah, I know...) which does not have ASLR.

I am in fact using Windows 7 64Bit

I'm not *convinced* that it's ASLR. But apparently you can shut off ASLR in W7 by using the Windows Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit. You can use this to turn ASLR off.

I highly recommend AGAINST leaving ASLR off permanently. ASLR is a good thing that keeps your system more secure. Should you decide to turn it off to test whether this is the cause of your problem, make sure you turn it back on after you are done.

Also, apparently L4D2 had another update recently (yesterday?). If you've updated, that could also cause the broken signature. But it appears you've had your issue since before the update.

Tried this and it still happened so it isn't ASLR

I downloaded left4downtown2-v0.5.4.2.zip and merged those files to my sourcemod folder.

After that my game will always crashed to desktop at the loading screen when i click start game.

I'm using this in a custom map.

Doesnt found a Linux Version of 0.5.4.2 which was working (mb i doesnt saw it in this thread) so i compiled it new.

Can you please post the source that you compiled and/or clarify what version you compiled (the left4downtown2-v0.5.4.2-src.zip from the original post? The src on the google code page? A different set?)
