May I ask why? I have always used the developers snapshots and never had any issues.

"Reading" is something that is recommended you do before you post questions in a thread that an error has noting to do with.

So your server is still crashing. it still has nothing to do with SDKHOOKS Try reading through the last couple of pages of this thread and see what you come up with. there is allot of input in there

Dude don't be an asshole. I am simply asking. I have always used developers builds (since they usually are more up to date than official release builds) and have never had any issues. So I am just asking why all of a sudden I should switch.

Regarding the MM:S dev. snapshots, I had the same problem initially when I tried them this time, although I usually use them without a problem. They're apparently just having issues right now.

Also, I believe people are being snarky with you because you have an attitude like something is owed to you by the developers of this free software. The sarcasm, when you indeed are the one that isn't reading things as much as you should be, also doesn't help.

I'm not being an asshole warmonger, it would just stand to reason that if a developer recommends you use one version over another, it would stand to reason that one isn't performing as it should and the other is.

Also, the developer snapshots, and snapshots in general to a degree, always have a "use at your own risk" status about them. They're not necessarily meant for a production server, although they're often suitable for that purpose anyway with some projects. Often they work better than the stable releases, but sometimes they don't work as well or at all. It's the nature of software development.

hello i have a question, i don't understand why my plugin isn't working.
it should reduce the damage of every weapon with a ratio of 10 (damage/10). but it seems to work toatally randomly... here is the code:

public OnClientPutInServer(client)
{
    SDKHook(client, SDKHook_OnTakeDamage, OnTakeDamage);
}

public Action:OnTakeDamage(victim, &attacker, &inflictor, &Float:damage, &damagetype)
{
 
	PrintToChatAll("first damage: %f",damage);
	damage =(damage/10);
	PrintToChatAll("second damage: %f",damage);
	return Plugin_Changed;
}

and here is the example of the output:

first damage: 99.322128 second damage: 9.932212

but the actual damage was: 5

any clue why and how to fix?

I'm guessing this is for CS:S based on your signature, but the hitgroup factors and armor are applied after OnTakeDamage. I.e. a headshot with that could will still receive a rough ~4.0x multiplier, or whatever the actual value is, after OnTakeDamage fires. TraceAttack should work, but I didn't test it when finding the same issue.

well actually using TraceAttack i get a very low damage. I.e. an headshot is originally 30 instead of 100+ without modifying anything. i wonder what is this damage exactly..

thanks for help though.

twisted panda said already, I thought... HS damage is multiplied by 3-4x... so, TraceAttack shows the damage pre-mulitply if HS

so, if headshot, leave dmg amount alone or change to 1/2 or something... if it was supposed to be 120 but it shows 30 (prior to multiply) then set 30 * .5 = 15... around what you would have normally done it had you done 120/10 - right?
