UPDATE: At around 7:05, I outline an issue I experienced where the Immolator would fire bullets when it wasn't supposed to, plus it would have an incredibly high rate of fire so the ammo would be consumed nearly instantly. It seems as if a couple of commenters have experienced something like this too and I think the resolution to this issue is to remove the BaseClass::ItemPostFrame(); line which is seen at around 11:38, hopefully this helps!

The Immolator will set fire to certain NPCs (like Metrocops, as shown in some of the video footage), however not all NPCs in the game are set to be ignitable (like Antlions), so it depends on the NPC.

I took a little look into it and I think I know what you're on about, I think for Multiplayer mods, it does exist but it is barely noticeable. However, you can make this viewmodel lagging effect more visible by changing a ConVar value called cl_wpn_sway_scale and by changing it to a higher value, you should see immediate results. It might not look the best, it's simply due to how the effect works in Multiplayer. If you want to look into it further, take a look at the predicted_viewmodel.cpp file and the CalcViewModelLag function. Hopefully this helps!

Hi! Watched a few videos and happy to be learning from them, so I am posting this comment in the hopes of finding a fix to the following. Half-Life 2: Deathmatch and the MP branch of SSDK 2013 have a bug with the shotgun where if you begin reloading the gun, use your phys_swap key and come back to the shotgun before the gun gets reloaded in the background, the gun gets stuck in an animation until you shoot or press your reload key again. This problem does not happen in the SP branch. I have tried many things, but I am just unable to figure out a solution. I would appreciate it enormously if you could provide a solution to this. Cheers!

@TheMaster974

Thanks for the comment, it certainly sounds like a strange issue, however I believe I have a fix for you. Inside weapon_shotgun.cpp, inside of the ItemHolsterFrame function (I think you can what I'm going to add wherever, I've added it before the auto-reloading part) add: if (m_bInReload) { m_bInReload = false; if (m_iClip1 m_iClip1 += 1; } This makes it so the Shotgun doesn't continue reloading when switching in the way that you've outlined and also makes it so the user has the amount of ammo in the Shotgun that is displayed before switching, although it may not be perfect. Hopefully this helps!

@@TheMaster974 Hi! Thank you for the reply and the time spent looking into this! I gave this a shot and sadly, this hasn't fixed it. I added some debug text with Msg() to see why it did not work and in my server console, m_bInReload is always seen as false in ItemHolsterFrame, so it seems that it never gets called. I tried a few different versions, but alas, no dice. I have no idea why the phys_swap function is the one that causes this specifically, as that bug never happens if you get to the physcannon by weapon selection, the "use weapon_physcannon" command or your lastinv key and then back to the shotgun. The moment you start reloading the shotgun, switch to the gravity gun with your phys_swap key while the shotgun reload animation happens and then back to the shotgun, it just gets stuck like that: imgur.com/a/UQFbapF I even tried messing with WeaponIdle() since I see that when this gets called, it makes it happen, but this may be a byproduct. I also tried editing the phys_swap function to just call for the lastinv command, which seems to stop it from happening, but that doesn't really solve the issue since that nukes phys_swap entirely. I also tried suppressing prediction, as I know that re-added back some missing sounds for some of the guns, but that didn't do anything either. I have fixed a whole bunch of issues with the game, but that one thing is killing me. Also, another unrelated thing, do you know how I can change the grenade surface type to play the actual grenade surface sound in MP like it does in SP? It currently plays the weapon drop sound on impact with any surface and all my attempts to change the sound results in the server crashing. I may be using wrong code, though. Thanks in advance!

@TheMaster974

Ай бұрын

I don't understand why my recommendation isn't working for you, have you modified the Shotgun code at all? The unmodified file should set m_bInReload to true at the end of the StartReload function. I've recorded a short video that I could potentially upload that shows the fix working on my end, and I'm definitely using the phys_swap command (which essentially does a use command if you look into how it works). As for the grenade sound, that's actually defined in the model that the grenade uses, so using the Singleplayer version of the grenade model should yield the result you are looking for.

From my testing, it seems as if the message that says that m_bInReload is true only gets called once (presumably for one frame), so the console will get flooded with the message in the else statement, so it's easier for testing purposes to remove the else statement and only check to see if m_bInReload is true.

Hey, don't know if you'll ever see this, but I just wanted to mention that the Immolator tutorial didn't work for me. And I made sure to follow your tutorial exactly. For me, the game crashes shortly after I start firing. No errors, no nothing. Also, it thinks it has reserve ammo, something I'm not seeing in your video. And it refuses to fire unless I give myself ammo, and then it takes ammo from the reserve ammo, not the clip. The other two weapons in the tutorial worked fine for me, it's just the Immolator that's not working for some reason. (And yes, that one BaseClass::ItemPostFrame(); at the bottom of the Immolator's ItemPostFrame needs to be commented out or removed otherwise it will shoot bullets, I made sure to test that.) Anyway, that's all I wanted to say. I would appreciate it if you made a followup tutorial addressing some bugs and all that, but I'm not expecting you to. Thank you for these amazing tutorials, there's no way I could've ever figured out how to fix some of these weapons. By the way, any chance weapon_thumper and weapon_rollerwand can be fixed up, including npc_rollerbuddy? Sorry for the wall of text, I'm not good at keeping things short.

Quick update, I fixed the crashing. I just defined pEntity in the wrong spot (I guess I deserve that for trying to follow a complex and lengthy tutorial after midnight). I still have those other issues, though. And the Immolator in general seems pretty buggy. You have to click twice for it to attack sometimes, it seems to do both the flamethrower and laser attack at the same time (kinda? It doesn't always ignite things), the flashlight toggle sound makes the firing sound stop playing, the laser in general is kinda weird, etc.. But I guess it is an unfinished beta weapon, so I don't really know what I was expecting.

@TheMaster974

Ай бұрын

Thanks for the comment, at least you were able to resolve the game crashing issue you were experiencing! For the ammo count issue, it could be something in the weapon script, the clip_size should be -1 and the default_clip should be 99 (or whatever value you want), it might be worth checking. As for the issue where you need to click the attack button twice, it could be due to a measure I put in place to prevent people from being able to spam the attack button and consume all of the ammo, so you might want to remove that and see if it helps. The igniting of enemies will only happen when the Immolator has been used for a short duration, when m_flBurnRadius is greater than 64, so you could always change that as well. The flashlight sound issue is news to me, thanks for pointing it out! I didn't change anything about how the beams work, hence why there could be some strange behaviour. As for the thumper weapon and rollerwand/rollerbuddy, I would probably only end up looking into the weapon_thumper code, as the rollerwand and rollerbuddy files are only available from leaked code, which I have reservations about doing tutorials about. Don't worry about posting walls of text, I'm guilty of doing this too...hopefully this ends up being useful!

Ай бұрын

Thanks for the reply. I know this is a bit long, so I won't blame you for skimming over this. Yes, I thought it might have something to do with my weapon script file, which I took directly from the leak (albeit with slight modifications). And as for the code that prevents people from spamming the attack button, I'll look into it. And, frankly, I always thought the Immolator was going to have two different fire modes. One would be a long-range laser that deals a lot of damage but doesn't set anything on fire, and then the other mode would make it a flamethrower that only sets things on fire at close range. I don't know if alt-fire would switch between them or if it would just do whichever the alternate attack would've been (probably the laser would've been primary and secondary would've been the flamethrower if that was how it would've worked), but that's just my theory. But that aside, now that I know more how it works, I think the stuff you implemented is actually pretty good for balance reasons. Honestly, the only thing I would want to see out of this is the laser on the Immolator and the CGuard gun being fixed. Because right now it doesn't look like they come from the gun, and instead they just come from around the player's face, which causes culling issues with the player camera, among other things. I can't imagine it would be too hard to make it come from the "muzzle" attachment on their respective models, similar to how the beta Physics Gun works (and it would be cool to see the Physics Gun's laser not disappear when you look away from the thing you're holding with it and have its interactions with ragdolls restored, but both of those are way beyond me and I'm honestly not expecting any sort of followup tutorial for your old Physics Gun tutorial). And on a final note, I'm glad to hear that you're still planning on doing these tutorials. This is great for beginners that want to learn how to code for the Source SDK, as well as for experienced coders who might need a refresh. ...okay, one last question. Any chance you can make any videos on how the vehicles work in the SDK? Maybe on restoring the ability for the player to be able to drive vehicles like prop_vehicle_apc, prop_vehicle_jetski, prop_vehicle_driveable, and maybe prop_vehicle_cannon? I'm not expecting you to do that by any means, but it would be cool to see proper somewhat/relatively easy to follow tutorials for the basics on making new functional vehicle entities that aren't just copies of prop_vehicle_jeep or prop_vehicle_airboat with some slight modifications.

No problem, I can look into the beam drawing issues eventually, I should have realized that I could have made the beams shoot from the muzzle attachment, supposing the viewmodel has the muzzle attachment in the first place! The Physgun beam disappearing is something I haven't figured out, plus what do you mean by interactions with ragdolls? As for vehicle stuff, it's not something I've looked into before, so I'm not making any promises that I'll do anything regarding that any time soon.

The Physics Gun's ability to pick up ragdolls and throw them around. In my testing (mostly on d1_trainstation_02) it's not able to pick up ragdolls at all, unlike what's seen in some beta screenshots (like the one where the player is holding a Metrocop by his boot and the Physics Gun is a pistol). It can't pick up, damage, or kill some enemies sometimes either. And, honestly, I won't blame you for not doing a video on the vehicles. There isn't really any good documentation on how they work on the programming side, and the documentation that actually exists is hard to follow. And my only guess for the Physics Gun beam disappearing is because the "origin" of the beam is on whatever the player is holding and not the gun itself, for whatever reason. And then Source tries to cull the beam for performance reasons because it thinks the beam is "out of the player's sight", when it's really not.
