i have a problem with a knife menu plugin running normally on offline CS 1.6 with bots but if i try to test it on HLDS server a certain knife stops(then crashes) the server with error logs due to one cvar ( i think this is non steam so i don't think it's supported here that's why i'm asking if i should post this problem at all before posting details )

in case it is ok to post this problem here i will edit this post later with details of the problem.

in case it is not i will leave my discord id and email down below if someone wants to help ( alternatively you can also leave any form of contact information in replies and i will reach out to you )

you should post the error

1. You need to attach the plugin if you want to solve your problem.
2. If you need a request you should post in this sub-forum Suggestions / Requests

Huh, how do you know know if your server is non-steam? If you know it's non-Steam then why post here since you obviously know it's not supported here.

Well, that doesn't make sense. If it's not allowed here and the post is left up, that would constitute support.

Yes this is non steam so i won't post error/plugin here , thanks for telling me @fysiks . i will go with second option and reach out privately to those who want to help .
@Supremache and @thebest24 if it doesn't bother you too much please leave a way for me to contact you in another reply (or contact me through dc or email from original post)

fair enough , if it gets removed , it is what it is .

If the problem has nothing to do with the server being non-steam, you could've simply not mentioned anything about that and posted the plugin normally.

:/ that's the problem , the plugin only shows this error log when i use it in a (HLDS which comes as a package with non-steam CS ) so i don't know what to consider this as or if the server being non steam even has any relevance to this problem. in any case i'll post a bit of the problem down below maybe it can be solved idk.

this is a part of error log in case you're curious what it is :

L 02/23/2022 - 22:12:50: Invalid CVAR pointer
L 02/23/2022 - 22:12:50: [AMXX] Displaying debug trace (plugin "zp_knife_menu3v4.amxx")
L 02/23/2022 - 22:12:50: [AMXX] Run time error 10: native error (native "get_pcvar_num")
L 02/23/2022 - 22:12:50: [AMXX]    [0] zp_knife_menu3v4.sma::client_PostThink (line 2229)

scipt only displayed 4 errors from debug for these lines :

PHP Code:

1 - g_cvar_lefthand = get_cvar_pointer("cl_righthand")
2 - isRight = get_pcvar_num(g_cvar_lefthand) ( this is from the client post-think one)
2 other errors same as one above just in diffrent functions 


i think the problem is that in offline gameplay cl_righthand value can be retrieved normally but once i open a HLDS test server and test it there it can't retrieve the value maybe ?

[fysiks]

Here's an idea: Use a legal version of HLDS, it's free to download, see here. Never add Non-Steam support and then you never have to worry that it's related to Non-Steam.

[OciXCrom]

g_cvar_lefthand = get_cvar_pointer("cl_righthand")

That's just dumb coding and nothing more. The type of server has nothing to do with this error.
Whoever made that plugin is trying to read a client cvar by using a function that reads server cvars.

That part of the code can't possibly work so you should be worried if you're NOT getting errors, and not if you're getting them.

actually when you put it like that it makes sense , i was wondering how the cvar would change for 32 players at the same time if it's not executed on each id , that also explains why it works offline but not online . Thanks @OciXCrom i'll make another post right now in suggestions/request to look for a better way to retreive this cvar
