Talk:SDK Known Issues List
Porting / Code warnings
Perhaps I should make a new page for the -Wall stuff... this list could get enormous. Valve desperately needs to Lint their codebase.
How do you just upload a file to wiki? I have a patch for tons of little fixes, but it's so enormous it seems silly to paste it into a webpage. Or, maybe since a lot of these are just search/replace I should describe the fixes that way...
- Jeff Lane had reported that for legal reasons only specific file uploads will be allowed.
- Google for any of the free file hosting sites and then link to the files. --wisemx 05:55, 2 Oct 2005 (PDT)
Well, I've got places I could host it, but it'd sure be suboptimal, cause then no one else could edit it. Sort of defeats some of the wiki usefulness.
I uploaded the first pass to a file host site - hopefully the file won't get deleted or anything. (The patch is only 9110 lines long, no biggie!) --Bloodykenny 09:55, 16 Oct 2005 (PDT)
That hosting site apparently had a drive failure, but I've re-uploaded the file. Too bad this !@#$ wiki won't take files.
Stun baton
Issue: Doing a 360 quickly with the Stun Baton as your active weapon causes the screen to flash white
I can't reproduce this. Even if I could, it sounds a lot like a gfx card issue. --TomEdwards 23:55, 19 Jul 2005 (PDT)
I believe it has something to do with the glow that the stun baton generates on the end of the stick. Several others have reproduced it... Bloodykenny 00:58, 20 Jul 2005 (PDT)
This has been fixed in HL2:DM, so hopefully an SDK fix will be announced at some point. --Bloodykenny 10:28, 15 Sep 2005 (PDT)
Server: CreateEvent: event 'break_prop' not registered
Well finding them is the trick isn't it. If you know any specifics, post them. --Bloodykenny 10:28, 15 Sep 2005 (PDT)
The first "Note:" line says "threat"... I'm guessing from the context that "fret" would be what the writer meant? I dare not change it, though, without being sure of the intended meaning. --Spektre1 23:10, 4 Nov 2005 (PST)
Downcasting
This page isn't about teaching people to code. Should the definition and uses of downcasting be included here? —Maven (talk) 19:30, 6 Nov 2005 (PST)
- Well alot of people that will be useing the page have no idea what downcasting is (Such as my self, i have been programming for 2 1/2 years, and never heard of it) --Amckern 19:39, 6 Nov 2005 (PST)
- Or, better yet, making a Wikipedia article on the subject and linking to that. —Maven (talk) 20:11, 6 Nov 2005 (PST)
