SDK mod problems

Postby eblis on Sun Oct 17, 2010 12:18 am

Hey guys I have just started trying to make a mod yesterday and after about 6 hours of trying to fix it myself and googling I am in need of help. I have been trying to follow some tutorials online but am not able to get it to work.

I have not modified the game at all at this stage I am just trying to get it to run without giving errors.

I am trying to make my first mod using the SDK so I selected source 2007 engine and created a mod using modify Half-Life 2 Single Player and made the dir E:\SDK\Mymod.

I then downloaded and installed Visual c++ 2010 and opened the Game_Episodic-2005.sln file in the src directory of my mod. I changed the target name for client and server to their proper names and modified the linker/input/Ignore Specific Default Libraries to libc;libcd;libcmtd;.

In configuration properties under Debugging I have:

Command - C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\blanchy_666\half-life 2 episode two\hl2.exe
Command Arguments - -allowdebug -novid -game "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\SourceMods\MyMod"
Working Dir - C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\blanchy_666\half-life 2 episode two\

When ever I try and run the mod it loads up HL:EP2 and freezes on the menu screen showing loading down the bottom right. I then alt tab out and stop debugging in VS2010 and it shows.

If I change the working directory and command to the source sdk base 2007 hl2.exe file I am able to get into the game but all the textures are missing and replaced by the pink blocks and using the impulse 101 cheat to get all weapons it crashes when I try and shoot.

I have spend a while trying to fix it on my own but I am not sure what to do now so any help you guys could provide would be greatly appreciated.

What happens if you break in the debugger instead of stopping it? That may get you a callstack.

Not sure if this is correct but I started the mod and went break and this is the output that came up in the callstack window in the bottom right.

Nuts. I was hoping the crash wasn't buried in an engine DLL.

What happens if you leave either the working directory or the command pointed to your mod, but leave the other pointing to the SDK default?

Ok I changed my settings so they are now

Command: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\blanchy_666\source sdk base 2007\hl2.exe
Command Arguments: allowdebug -dev -sw -game "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\SourceMods\MyMod"
Working Directory: C:\Program Files %28x86%29\Steam\steamapps\blanchy_666\source sdk base 2007

So it is now pointing to the SDK base 2007 folder and using the hl2.exe from there and the game will run. The problem is there is a lot of missing textures. I have not changed my mods gameinfo.txt and it is still showing.

Code: Select all
"GameInfo"
{
    game         "mymod"
    title         "HALF-LIFE'"
    title2        "== episode two =="

    type        singleplayer_only

    FileSystem
    {
        SteamAppId                420         // GCF for Episode 2
        ToolsAppId                211        // Tools will load this (ie: source SDK caches) to get things like materials\debug, materials\editor, etc.
       
        SearchPaths
        {
            Game                |gameinfo_path|.
            Game                |all_source_engine_paths|ep2

Sorry, but at this point I'm out of ideas. I haven't modded Source in forever, so I couldn't really tell you what's going on.

Oh hey, not sure if you're still watching this thread, but this may help you.

Leave source sdk 2007 base as your command and working directory arguments like you had before. Change your GameInfo.txt to have the following:

SteamAppId 218
ToolsAppId 211
AdditionalContentId 420

Save that, then restart steam. Then try to launch again through the debugger. See if that works for you.
