! IPlayerInfoManager interface loaded in HL2DM. Now on the IBotManager one...
Stefan, it's totally normal that creating a fake client wouldn't work, since this function is a member of IBotManager, and the interface has not been attached! The problem is not that calling botmanager->CreateBot crashes, but that botmanager is NULL
*edit* found the interface version strings all in hl2mp/bin/server.dll if you hexedit it. Bailopan was right, there's a version mismatch between HL2MP and CS:Source for the IPlayerInfoManager interface. On the IBotManager one though, it's more complicated as its version is already 001 in the SDK and I find no occurence of it in the server DLL. It looks like the IBotManager interface is unknown in HL2DM!!! o_O it means HL2DM doesn't support bots, simply.
*edit 2* OK, IPlayerInfoManager interface correctly loaded as version "PlayerInfoManager001" but still unusable. Calling playerinfomanager->GetGlobalVars () leads to a memory access crash. I suspect they added GetGlobalVars to the interface just for this version 002, which means it's inexistent so far in the current server DLL. Dat sux0rz teh big 0n3.
