Can You, please, release some debugging information, like *.pdb files to make debugging 3-d party plugins easer? #668

Third party plugins, like Metamod and AmxModX, on new servers build are very unstable.

Most of HLDS servers (I don't know how many, but it seems to me, that there are more than 90%) use third party plugins. And, as I think, Counter-Strike 1.6 is still popular due to them.

But now most of HLDS server's administrators don't want to update their server to latest versions, because 3-d party plugins won't work fine with it. So, it will be great, if You release some userful information here.

You can't mark your issue with labels, only moderators and admins can do that

I work with the AMX and Metamod guys, if they have questions they send over dumps for me to look at. Under linux they already have all the debug info they need, so this is a windows specific issue.

Thanks for that. I don't know why, but Russian part of CS and HL scripters was sure that you will not help AMX and Metamod developers. By the way. Do you work with AmxMod or with AmxModX guys? As far, as I remember, they are two different teams.

Google for Admin Mod, I started the whole MetaMod/plugins thing :)

Chuvi-w commented 11 years ago

I found Admin Mod while I were trying to find how long you are working in Valve and what part in CS development did you take (I certanly don't know why I decided to google that.0_o). I findthis, and then googled Admin Mod.

But you didn't answer about AMX/AMXX team. As far, as I remember, "AMX Mod X" was forked from the "AMX Mod".

"AMX Mod" team stops devlopment some years ago (maybe 3, maybe 5, I don't remember), But "AMx Mod X" team is stll working with "Amx Mod X"

So, I'm interesting, is "AmxMod" (without letter "X") team is planning to return with new release, or I've misunderstand You, and You was talking about "AmxModX" team?

[Sorry for my English. I've messed up my brain, trying to remember table of English tenses and English grammar at all.]

AmxModX is more popular than AmxMod at least recent 4-5 years. Also it's definitely good to see you on github, mail-lists is terrible.

Chuvi-w commented 11 years ago

@Fedcomp, thanks a lot, I knew about popularity of AmxModX. By the way, ты не в курсе, что с форумом амх-х.ру? Что-то последние 4 часа он всё время отваливается с 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable, или грузится, но без оформления.
