Game Support
SourceMod 1.2 includes full support for two additional game engines:
- Left 4 Dead, a new game released by Valve. Notes:
- nextmap.smx will appear disabled, since it has no use.
- Do not use forked servers over one copy of SourceMod.
- Selecting an unavailable menu item will cause menus to disappear, without any "end of menu" callback being fired. This is a bug in the game client (see discussion at bug 3566).
- Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, by Ubisoft. Notes:
- This game only has a Windows server, so SourceMod only supports it on Windows.
- This game uses a modified pre-Episode 1 engine, similar but more deviating than The Ship. Metamod:Source support is included in 1.7.1+, and uses the "new" MM:S API, not the legacy API (unlike other earlier engines).
- Reverse engineered HL2SDK headers are available on the AlliedModders Mercurial Forest.
Compatibility
- If you compile plugins (or extensions) with SourceMod 1.2, they cannot be run on SourceMod 1.1, even if they do not use new features.
- SourceMod 1.2 cannot be "downgraded" to SourceMod 1.1 unless the extensions folder is cleared. This is because the "bintools" extension is in a new location, and the new version will be loaded over the old after downgrading.
- Developers: The "usermessage" API has changed. MsgNotify has been removed entirely, and replaced with MsgPostHook. This change is transparent, and no plugins appeared to have been using the API. If you have a plugin relying on the MsgNotify functionality, your plugin will now receive intercepted calls that are blocked as well. Update your source, recompile, and use the new sent parameter to filter.
