Hi,
Can you launch Xash with -dev 5 and put log here?
Also, with port to Linux, engine uses a newer VGUI. You can find it in halflife/utils/vgui directory. Using old DLL may crash the engine.
How do I save console output with Xash3D? condump and -condebug aren't working.
-log. It will save logfile to engine.log.
CL_LoadProgs: failed to get address of HUD_Shutdown proc
This. Try another client.dll. For example, from Steam or compile from HLSDK. (project name is.cl_dll)
Error: SV_LoadProgs: couldn't get entity API Error: SV_InitGame: can't initialize dlls/hl.dll
Also this. Try another hl.dll. I really don't know why WON version isn't working.
When I use Steams client.dll, I get this warning before the game starts:
This is the log using Steams client.dll
This is the log using both hl.dll and client.dll from the Steam version
I copied vgui.dll
from the Steam version and everything seems to be working now. I don't know why the dlls from ModDB didn't work. Anyway, thanks for your help!
I've got the same problem when i start modding, i downloaded the source and opened projects.sln file and pressed build,the build done successfully but when i tried to run the game i got "Could not load library client.dll". so i used dependency walker and opened the client.dll file and there was one entry point with a red sign near to it called "GetMousePos@Surface@VGUI",used to get the mouse position in Vgui surface or something ,even though the compiler didn't complain and the linker didn't issued unresolved external error,the weird thing is that my code and the client code dont make any call to this function to get mouse position but to "GetMousePosition" and "GetMousePos" functions exported by the engine in APIProxy.h file, so i thought that the linker got confused and link against "GetMousePos" which located in "VGUI_Surface.h" Surface file ,so i simply and temporally turned the function declaration in Vgui surface class into a comment and rebuild the solution and the red sign in dependency walker gone and the mod worked fine
It seems to be problem with vgui changes. Valve made HLSDK client cross-platform. Whole client was reworked. vgui was updated too, If some mods are not compatible with new vgui, you need to use old vgui headers and vgui.lib when building vgui_support library. But i think that all mods should be binary compatible, just use vgui that compatible with engine.
I've Got Exactly The Same Problem
@msmx100 So why don't use this solution?
I can't start maps when I use a custom built Xash3D Engine. Neither New game or Hazard course do anything. I went into gameinfo.txt and made sure "startmap" was set to "c0a0" but it still didn't work. Even the map command in the console doesn't do anything. Also, multiplayer model preview seems to be broken as well.

Here are the steps I took when I tried to build the engine: • Downloaded these files:
github.com/SDLash3D/xash3d/archive/master.zip
github.com/SDLash3D/halflife/archive/master.zip
github.com/SDLash3D/XashXT/archive/master.zip
libsdl.org/release/SDL2-devel-2.0.3-VC.zip
• Extracted the folders and set them up like this:
...\xash3d\
...\halflife\
...\xashXT\
...\SDL2\
• Opened
\xash3d\xash.sln
in Visual Studio 2013, made a build (didn't change anything), then copied the files,menu.dll
vgui_support.dll
xash.dll
andxash.exe
from\xash3d\Debug\
into a custom directory,...\_Xash3D TEST\
• Copied
\valve\
folder from my Half-Life directory and put it in my\_Xash3D TEST\
directory. My Half-Life version is the original WON v1.0.0.5• Copied
vgui.dll
from http://moddb.com/engines/xash3d-engine/downloads/xash3d-engine-v097-build-3030-with-extras because Half-Life WON doesn't have it. Put it in my\_Xash3D TEST\
directory.• Copied
SDL2.dll
from\SDL2\lib\x86\
and put it in my\_Xash3D TEST\
directory.• Moved
vgui_support.dll
into\_Xash3D TEST\valve\
folder.• Launched xash.exe
