I can't seem to get cvar2.ReplicateData() to work properly (it could be that I'm not using it right)

Here's what I'm trying to do:

function sendPlayerCVARFlags(ply)
	require("cvar2")
	cvar2.ReplicateData(player.GetByID(ply), mat_yuv, 1)
	ply:PrintMessage(HUD_PRINTCENTER,"Test")
end

hook.Add( "PlayerSpawn", "playerSpawn", sendPlayerCVARFlags )

Error:

ERROR: Hook 'playerSpawn' Failed: autorun/server/cvar_unlock.lua:26: attempt to call field 'ReplicateData' (a nil value)
Removing Hook 'playerSpawn'

[blackops7799]

mat_yuv should be in quotes and player.GetByID(ply) should just be ply I think. That's all I see that's wrong.

Wee, finally got it to work. Downloaded the wrong module at the middle of the first page and it had this bind removed.

System error 14001 when I try to use :(

[aualin]

cvar2.SetFlags("sv_cheats", cvar2.GetFlags("sv_cheats") - FCVAR_CHEAT)

Win?

If you're using that on the client, No.

[Chad Mobile]

Thanks, can't wait to use this :)

[Tobba]

Sorry for the bump but cvar2.GetAll seems to return concommands too, can you please add cvar2.Exists(name) or cvar2.IsCvar(name) ?

[Tobba]

G.ConVarExists

stupid wiki search...

Any chance of a linux version?

[CapsAdmin]

Linux version please.

[Yakuza]

Is this DLL binary compatible with a linux server?
if it is then someone please confirm it.
im running a linux server and this DLL is required to run the gamemode im using.

[Python1320]

No linux binaries so far.

If someone reads this post and knows how to make modules, is anyone interested in making this module compatible with linux binaries?

If you are then pm me on forums.

Yes please!

Okay I'll do this tomoz.

[Tobba]

This module seems to crash on load in my gamemode, didnt before the update. but then it went like... shorter between every crash, now i nailed out that it was cvar2 that crashed server on startup...

[Python1320]

This module alters around 200 cvars on load on my server and not a single startcrash has been detected. It must be something you're doing.

And thanks haza55!

[Tobba]

Mine alters about 300 cvars, it worked just fine untill a few hours ago when it started crashing the server

[haza55]

Sigh Linux is going to be a bitch.

Taking a look at the least portable code in gm_cvar2, you can eliminate the sigscan by switching to how the new version of gatekeeper deals with getting clients. The way I scanned for them before (which is the way it still did it when you wrote this) was really messy, and it's a lot better now. Grabbing the cvar export shouldn't be a huge hassle.

Copy the gatekeeper code for getting CBaseServer, use that instead of directly accessing the client list, and then the worst of it will be grabbing the export (which shouldn't be too bad).

Should be as easy as this.

...

ICvar* cvar = NULL;

...

int Init( lua_State* L )
{
	if( !Sys_LoadInterface( "vstdlib", CVAR_INTERFACE_VERSION, NULL, reinterpret_cast<void**>( &cvar ) ) )
		Lua()->Error( "Unable to load ICvar interface." );
}

I had a look at Sys_LoadInterface, it seems to cause a memory error when I close the game without unloading the module by disconnecting. Is there an unload function that's supposed to be used with it?

[haza55]

// This is a helper function to load a module, get its factory, and get a specific interface.
// You are expected to free all of these things.
// Returns false and cleans up if any of the steps fail.
bool Sys_LoadInterface(
	const char *pModuleName,
	const char *pInterfaceVersionName,
	CSysModule **pOutModule,
	void **pOutInterface );

Can someone tell me if this still works or another way I can do sv_airaccelerate and sv_accelerate, I really need it.

[nicatronTg]

I'm thinking the flags need to be removed before the engine processes them, because it doesn't add the command back when you reboot the server.

The module still works fine.

for k,v in ipairs( cvar2.GetAll() ) do

	if ConVarExists( v ) and GetConVar( v ) and cvar2.IsFlagSet( v, FCVAR_DEVELOPMENTONLY ) then
	
		cvar2.SetFlags( v, cvar2.GetFlags( v ) - FCVAR_DEVELOPMENTONLY )
		
	end
	
end

Removes all of the dev flags from any convars that have them.

What is that? Where do I put it? And wasn't I supposed to put require("modulename") before it?

EDIT: Worked great with this! Thank you sooo much!

[Python1320]

Broken, could you please fix this for the latest version of gmod?

[MegaDeath]

As of this version, on loading there appears to be an access violation reading some apparently arbitrary location. More than that I have no idea on what to say other than "It's broken!"

[haza55]

This will be fixed soon.

Edited:

Updated. Download in first post.

I removed 3 functions, which I will re-add later.

[Teddi Orange]

Just going to throw out there that commands such as sv_airaccel don't require this module to work anymore.

[Python1320]

REMOVEDcvar2.ReplicateData(playerid, cvarName, datastr) // Doesn't seem to work with things like mat_fullbright sadly, just left it here for others to try out.  
FCVAR_DEVELOPMENTONLY

Damnit, This command was nice for replicating sv_cheats on clients without actually allowing serverside stuff like ent_fire. mat_fullbright and such work after making sv_cheats to appear to be 1 by the way.

I'm bringing it back. Just wanted to get the update out as fast as possible.

[Python1320]

Oh and another request. Could you, in future, compile cvar2 without external dll deps (msvc) since WINE servers really don't like that.

[Kill coDer]

Is cvar2.ReplicateData the only way I can let other clients modify fog commands such as fog_override?

If so, when do you think the update will be out?

[haza55]

Soon, on the top of my list once I get some work done.

[Python1320]

Any luck with porting this on linux/getting the ReplicateData to work?

[Kill coDer]

It's been almost a month, I would really like to use it :C

[COBRAa]

Why did you remove ExecuteCommandOnClient(), could it execute any command or something?

[Python1320]

It broke due to the engine update. Updates to the SDK haven't been released and something changed so it couldn't work without reverse engineering the new code.
