Fixed HL2DM (server binaries)
Those binaries are not yet updated to work with the latest update. This will be looked at in the future and updated binaries will be uploaded when ready. Thanks for your understanding!

Preamble

You must apply the loose fixes explained here[gist.github.com] by Adrian to prevent server crashes on startup. The following are the necessary symbolic links to get the server running on Linux:

ln -s soundemittersystem_srv.so soundemittersystem.so ln -s scenefilecache_srv.so scenefilecache.so mv libtier0.so libtier0.so.bak ln -s libtier0_srv.so libtier0.so mv libvstdlib.so libvstdlib.so.bak ln -s libvstdlib_srv.so libvstdlib.so

I have used what was already available and added on top of it. That is a big part why I contributed as well.

I used to compile my custom project for my servers back in 2020, and in 2022 when the war in my country began I had to abandon the project. Also, the repository isn't complete and a lot of things I made weren't uploaded there, because I had no interest in continuing this project due to the irritating community of this game and this game is dead since 2022. However, I'm still surprised that there are still people who try to improve this game because I stopped working on the projects in this game a long time ago. Good job!

I seem to notice a lot of the good programmers come from Ukraine. Stay safe! Thank you for your work! I have learned a lot of things, but I realize I still have a long way to go.

Perhaps, if you are willing, you can provide some assistance to help finalize the project.

I have been trying to get the fov command to work for a while and attempting to save the value in memory for future server connects. This is the sole reason I still rely on Sourcemod for this.

Perhaps this is a chance to help complete the list of fixes you started. I can 100% understand the frustration with the community, but ultimately, the game deserves to be fixed as much as possible.

Yeah, it is true that we have a lot of good programmers here. No problem, always feel free to use it! I wish I could assist, but I'm busy nowadays because I have a lot of projects and things to do, so I have no time to assist. But I could update the repository once in a while, even though I moved from HL2DM to a standalone SSDK-2013MP mod. Feel free to ask me anything!

I am quitting this game forever until Valve update the SDK.
Some of you know me, some of you don't, but I have been playing this game since late 2017-early 2018. I made many friends in this game and had been hosting servers in this game from 2020 to 2022. But after this terrible update where half of the "fixed" mentioned things were not fixed at all. Most of developers are not able to continue their projects in this game, including me and Peter Brev. People who invested a lot of time to make this game better can't continue their projects in this game. This update is probably a doomsday for this game and developers who tried to make this game better. I have nothing to say but I will leave this message, I hope everyone will understand this message.

I'm really happy to see such great work on a game that can never die! Peter, thanks for your effort in making this game better. Not only this but listening and incorporating new ideas that help our game play. This is one professional work that i truly appreciate.

Worth noting, I have a plan C of a SDK2013 version of HL2DM the community can migrate to since I was expecting this. If the modded servers can not be restored that will become the place your current SDK mods will work on and I ensured it would all remain compatible with each other.

Peter Brev 15 Nov, 2024 @ 3:30pm 
I agree that I was expecting this update to break the SDK anyway. I opened an issue tracker[github.com] to address this in the hopes we get an SDK update. If all fails, whatever you have Henky will be of great use to us. In the meantime, keep this topic on top. We need to bring this to their attention.
