Maps

They Hunger: Escape

• Added a new room with a shotgun and a zombie cop ambush spawn to the alley next to the ambulance.
• Added fold-able wooden barricades next to the burning tunnel debris, visible only when the tunnel is blocked. (Should make it more obvious that this is the only route through to the other side.)
• Added fold-able wooden barricades to downtown sewer entrance if toolbox spawns there.
• Added infinite spanner spawn to sewer next to where the toolbox sometimes spawns.
• Added missing civilian models to the permitted player model list.
• Added sewer labels to all three sewer tunnels surrounding the truck to prevent players getting lost so easily.
• Added sewer steam to make the entrances more noticeable.
• Added skill configuration, with level 1 being normal difficulty, and level 2 being hardcore:
  • Barney now does 2 points less damage with his pistol in both modes.
  • Bullsquid has less health and does 5 points less spit damage in normal mode.
  • Otis cops (sheriff included) now do 25 damage instead of 37 in both modes.
  • Snarks deal 5 damage per bite instead of 10 in normal mode.
  • Zombies do 5 less damage per swing and 10 less damage per double-swing in normal mode.
• Added some lights to the map start room.

• Colt 1911 handgun now respawns infinitely in the police station / ambulance / radio station.
• Deleted female zombie that kept getting stuck in church upper hallway.
• Deleted ‘random civilian’ spawnpoint in the train station that wasn’t near any weapons.

• Extra minute is added to the time limit if the game is started with 4 or less players.
• Fixed crappy brushwork with holes in it on the roof of the train station and the hallway connected to the church.
• Fixed police tunnel roof being «func_detail», which made it so that everything in the tunnel rendered whenever you looked over at it from above.
• Fixed some pretty bad cylinder face carving issues.
• func_trackvehicle: Updated the script to match the recent API change.
• Hardcore mode is now forced for 16+ players, rather than 10+.
• In the «jail» lose cutscene, two players will now spawn in either cell and the rest will fall through the collapsing ceiling (only if there are any more than two living players at the end of the round, which is somewhat rare).
• Made the unbreakable train depot door metal instead of wood so that dumb people don’t pound on it for days trying to break through.
• Sewer treatment engineer 3 now spawns with a spanner.
• Sheriff now spawns in both normal and hardcore modes, rather than just hardcore. Sheriff has less health in normal mode.

Ошибка 0xc0000142 / 0xe06d7363 / 0xc0000906

Отключите антивирусную программу

лучше программу не просто отключить, а временно удалить

• Полностью удаляете приложение, чтобы не осталось никаких папок и остаточных файлов.
• Отключаете или лучше удаляете в системе антивирусную программу.
• Теперь снова приступаете к установке приложения.

Отключите «Защитник Windows»

он тоже запросто может быть причиной появления этих ошибок

• Открыть «Центр безопасности Защитника Windows» выбрать настройки
  нажать на раздел «Защита от вирусов и угроз».
• После нужно нажать на «Управление настройки» в открывшемся разделе
  спуститься до пункта «Параметры защиты от вирусов и других угроз».
• В новом окне отключаете «Защиту в режиме реального времени» и следом «Облачную защиту» чуть позже система вновь включить защитник, но у вас будет время
  проверить игру на наличие ошибки.
• И если окажется, что проблема действительно заключается в «Защитнике Windows», тогда необходимо добавить
  exe-файл игры в список исключений этой программы.

Воспользуйтесь чистой загрузкой

• Открываете в Windows 10 окно «Параметры», используя меню

  Пуск

  или
  сочетание клавиш

  Win

  +

  I

  .

• Далее открываете раздел под названием «Приложения» переключаетесь
  на вкладку «Автозагрузка», где необходимо проблемный exe-файл и отключить его.

Проверьте целостность файлов

возможно, ошибка возникает из-за того что была повреждена целостность
системных файлов

• Откройте «Командную строку» от имени администратора (для этого в поиске просто введите «Командная
  строка).
• И как только откроется соответствующее, окно введите команду sfc /scannow после чего нажмите

  Enter

  все найденные ошибки будут автоматически исправлены.

Измените значение в реестре

редактирование в нём иногда помогает избавиться от
ошибок

• Используя сочетание клавиш

  Win

  +

  R

  в окне «Выполнить» введите команду regedit нажмите

  OK

  после чего в окне «Редактор
  реестра» отыщите раздел, представленный ниже.

• И если он присутствует, тогда необходимо следом отыскать параметр LoadAppinit_DLLs – далее в нём нужно
  изменить значение опции с 1 на 0 после необходимо применить
  настройки и перезагрузить систему.

Другие способы

• В обязательном порядке попробуйте вручную установить драйверы для графического процессора. Причём это
  касается не только интегрированной видеокарты, но и дискретной.
• Проверьте наличие всех актуальных распространяемых пакетов «Visual C++», поскольку это программное
  обеспечение влияет на многие процессы.
• И, наконец, иногда причина этих ошибок заключается в службе «Microsoft Office Click-to-Run» – специальная
  технология Microsoft, которая сокращает время, необходимое для установки Office. Поэтому рекомендуем удалить эту
  программу и проверить игру на наличие ошибок.

Installing custom maps

Your players will inevitably get bored with the official set of maps provided. You will almost certainly want to install some of the many additional maps around to improve the experience of your game server.

Installing custom maps is a simple process providing map artists follow the map distribution guidelines. You will have downloaded a map as a file containing the map contents typically as a ZIP, RAR, or 7Z archive. Maps are rarely distribute maps as a standalone BSP file or as a bunch of unpacked files.

You can use a free utility such as 7-Zip to open most of the archive formats around today. This runs on both Windows and Linux and is provided for free of charge.

When you open the archive you should see a set of folders that could be gfx, maps, models, scripts, sound, and sprites. It’s also likely you’ll see a bunch of WAD files here too. If this is what you see you will need to extract all of these to your server’s svencoop_addons folder.

• Do not extract any unofficial resources directly into the svencoop folder. To help keep your game files clean, use the svencoop_addons folder. The game engine is perfectly capable of loading maps and their contents from this location.
• If there is a scripts folder included take a look inside before extraction. There should only ever be a maps folder inside this. Anything else should be treated as suspicious and not extracted, or deleted after extraction.
• If there is only a svencoop folder inside the archive, you need to enter this folder before extraction. This shows the map artist has not followed our current guidelines on map distribution.
• If there is only a BSP file (and maybe a couple of TXT/CFG files along side it) this means the map doesn’t have much custom content. These files should be extracted to the maps folder within the svencoop_addons folder.

This diagram shows how custom map content should be laid out in your game.

Sven Coop в конце недели

В это воскресенье (12 октября 2014) всем порталом играем в Sven Coop, а именно проходим кампанию Fortified. Приглашаются все желающие.Начало: 12 октября 2014 18:00 (время московское)Количество мест: 32Место проведения (адрес сервера): s20.hldm.org (195.191.250.139:27015)Скачать Sven Coop: http://hldm.org/files/others/208-sven-co-op-48.htmlSven Co-op — кооперативная модификция для Half-Life, где игроки должны убивать контролируемых компьютером монстров, разбирать головоломки и выполнять различные цели (указываются в MOTD) в команде. Игра полностью бесплатна, для игры потребуется установленный Half-Life клиент.Fortified — карта от разработчика «Nih», где игроки являются бойцами секретного подразделения и должны напасть на защищенный объект. Один из игроков должен взять на себя командование, у него отсутствует возможность непосредственно передвигаться и убивать противников, он наблюдает сверху и помогает подразделению, посылает атаку с воздуха, выдает оружие другим игрокам. Карта поделена на несколько секторов, каждый из которых предстоит захватить.

Race-X

Nobody knows where these lifeforms come from, though they are an exciting addition to conflicting battles. Most of which feature electrical and poison attacks.

Появляется чёрный экран в Sven Co-op

• Драйверы установлены/обновлены, но Sven Co-op всё равно отказывается работать
  нормально? Тогда нужно проверить ПО, установлены ли вообще необходимые библиотеки? В
  первую очередь проверьте наличие библиотек
  
  Microsoft Visual C++
  
  и
  
  .Net
  Framework
  
  , а также наличие «свежего»
  
  DirectX
  
  .
• Если ничего из вышеописанного не дало нужного результата, тогда пора прибегнуть к
  радикальному способу решения проблемы: запускаете Sven Co-op и при появлении
  чёрного экрана нажимаете сочетание клавиш «Alt+Enter», чтобы игра переключилась на
  оконный режим. Так, возможно, откроется главное меню игры и удастся определить
  проблема в игре или нет. Если удалось перейти в оконный режим, тогда переходите в
  игровые настройки Sven Co-op и меняйте разрешение (часто получается так, что
  несоответствие разрешения игры и рабочего стола приводит к конфликту, из-за которого
  появляется чёрный экран).
• Причиной этой ошибки также могут послужить различные программы, предназначенные для
  захвата видео и другие приложения, связанные с видеоэффектами. А причина простая –
  появляются конфликты.
• И напоследок – проблема, вероятнее всего, может быть связана с технической
  составляющей «железа». Видеоадаптер может перегреваться, как и мосты на материнской
  плате, что влечёт за собой уменьшенное энергопотребление видеокарты. Мы не будем
  вдаваться в детальные технические подробности, поэтому просто рекомендуем в
  обязательном порядке почистить свою машину от пыли и также поменять термопасту!

Core variables

The music

Thanks to the new FMod sound library from Firelight Technologies more than just MP3 files can be played using the in-game music player.

Use the included play list editor tool «playlist.exe» to easily create a list of music files or import a play list to use in the in-game player.

In case you’re having trouble running this tool, all you should need is Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5. This is available free of charge for all Windows users:

• via the Windows Update website for Windows 2000, XP, and 2003 users.
• via the Windows Update tool (Start » All Programs) for Windows Vista, 2008, 7, 2008 R2, 8, and 8.1 users.

Installation: Standalone application

Our dedicated server package is also available as a standalone package available via the SteamCMD tool. Though it requires further knowledge to install and use you will benefit from a server that doesn’t depend on your Steam client, can be run as a console application, and even be run as an unattended system service. Permanent / full-time servers should opt for this approach. You will also NOT require an existing Sven Co-op installation to continue.

Do not use this method of installation if you are unfamiliar with some basic server administration concepts such as using a command prompt or terminal environment, and reading/writing configuration files.

Instructions are as follows:

1. Open a command prompt or terminal environment on your system.
2. Download and install SteamCMD .
3. Download our dedicated server package with the following command:steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir "C:\SvenDS" +app_update 276060 validate +exitReplace the path C:\SvenDS with a location to your preference.
4. Wait for the package to download and validate.

Once it has finished you can use the SvenDS.exe executable to launch a server. Launching without any arguments will start it with a , or if you specify the -console argument it will start with a .

The same command is used to update the server application too, however be sure you have no server instances running or the update will fail.

Server administrators

Sven Co-op has a (minimal) framework for server administrators and owners to get some representation of their status and some basic functionality to help control the game session.

These players are given this status by declaring their Steam ID within the file adminsfile (pointing to «admins.txt» by default). To give a player administrative status simply write their Steam ID on a line in this file. You can write comments after if you want to keep note of the players’ handle.

Server administrators will be shown as such on the score board with the icon . If the server is yours you can also denote yourself as such by placing an asterisk ‘*’ before your Steam ID, for which you will get a tinted icon . No additional functionality is currently available to owners, it’s mainly for show.

Here is an example of how your administrator list file could look:

// Owners/operators
*STEAM_9:1:488201	# Paul (owner)
*STEAM_9:0:38195	# Jane

// Administrators
STEAM_9:0:95482		# Dave
STEAM_9:1:5828645	# Emily
STEAM_9:1:1522834	# sUpErDeAn
STEAM_9:0:864923	# Zamnuzi

You do not have to include your Steam ID if you are only going to be running a listen server (i.e. for a temporary map test session). As a player hosting a listen server, you are automatically given the ownership status.

The only administrative functionality built-in currently provided is the ability to use , primarily because this feature is fairly new to the game. We will be including more functionality in future releases, however our scripting platform is able to determine if a player is an administrator or owner. Anyone can write a server plug-in script to boost the functionality available without a complicated permissions base.

Ошибка DirectX в Sven Co-op

«DirectX Runtime Error»

«DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_RESET»

«DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG»

«DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED»

• Первым делом необходимо установить «чистую» версию драйвера вашей видеокарты (то
  есть не стоит сразу спешить устанавливать тот же GeForce Experience, ничего лишнего
  от AMD и аудио).
• При наличии второго монитора попробуйте отключить его, а также отключите G-Sync и
  любые другие виды дополнительных/вспомогательных устройств.
• Воспользуйтесь средством проверки системных файлов для восстановления повреждённых
  или отсутствующих системных файлов.
• В случае если используете видеокарту от Nvidia, тогда попробуйте включить
  
  «Режим
  отладки»
  
  в панели управления видеокартой.

• Часто причиной ошибки служит перегретая видеокарта, поэтому для проверки её
  работоспособности рекомендуем воспользоваться программой

  FurMark

  . Если это оказалось действительно так, тогда следует
  понизить частоту видеокарты.

• Если вдруг столкнулись с другими ошибками, тогда рекомендуем переустановить DirectX,
  но перед этим лучше на всякий случай удалить старую версию (при этом обязательно
  удалите в папке перед переустановкой все файлы начиная с
  
  «d3dx9_24.dll»
  
  и
  заканчивая
  
  «d3dx9_43.dll»
  
  ).

Configuration files

The following only need to be changed when running multiple servers off a single installation of Sven Co-op (aka configuration profiling) where sharing of configuration files is not desired.
