SourceMod 1.12 Now Stable Oct 20, 2024 12:36
SourceMod 1.12 is now the new stable, recommended version to use.

This has been another one of our longest times between stable releases, so the full changelog is quite large. There are numerous updates in this version, compared to 1.11. Here are some of the highlights:


  • Added or greatly improved support for five games and mods
  • Greatly improved 64-bit support
  • Many new natives added
  • Numerous bugs fixed


Shoutouts
We also want to take a moment to thank everyone that contributed to the release in any way, but a few specific callouts are warranted.

Kenzzer was a driving force with heavily improving 64-bit support, and doing a bulk of that work. This may soon be a requirement for Team Fortress 2 servers, and already is for some newer games, such as Military Conflict: Vietnam and Blade Symphony. You'll also see Digby and Mikusch showing up many times in the changelog. They both contributed many of the features and fixes. And finally, I also want to give a special mention to Sarrus for his awesome SourcePawn Studio extension for Visual Studio Code. It's a great tool for anyone developing SourceMod plugins.

Here is the full changelog. Italicized items were also backported to 1.11 after it went stable. As you can see, there are many contributors beyond the core team. Apologies if anything or anyone was missed.

New Translation Workflow Mar 29, 2023 19:17
Phrases for all languages have been moved into the repository and can be updated through pull requests.

The translation phrases used to be maintained by dedicated community volunteers through an online tool. While the tool worked well and served its purpose, it doesn't quite work with the current rolling release model. We couldn't add new phrases (looking at you, #597), since there was no process to gather translations and the existing solution saw little activity over the years. This led to rethinking how community translations are collected and resulted in putting the old translator tool down in favor of a Github Project tracking the progress.

With scheduled releases, it used to work like this: before publishing a release, the phrases were frozen and all translators asked to update the phrases. After they voted on the best translation for all phrases, they were exported and shipped with the next release. With a rolling release model, the 1.11-dev and master branches are always kept in a runnable state, so there is no time to stop and gather all translations before each commit.

Since we're using Github for most of the file related tasks already, just including all phrases in the repository and updating them through pull requests seems like the obvious choice. This brings the translation phrases one step closer to where most of the activity happens. To keep an overview of missing phrases in languages, we use a Github project which gets updated whenever a phrase file changes.

If you want to contribute to a translation in SourceMod, the new workflow is as follows:
  • Look at what needs to be done for your language in the Translation project.
    • Click on the language name in the card to open a detailed view.

  • Check the phrase in the english translation files.
  • Update the correct phrases file with your translation.
  • Open a pull request with your changes.


We still need your eyes to judge the new phrases in incoming pull requests. You can check the list of pending changes and comment on the languages you know.

At the time of this writing, not even a single supported language has all of the phrases translated! Let's go and change this!

SourceMod 1.11 Now Stable Jul 02, 2022 22:19

  • New forwards when clients use voice chat.
  • Add frequently used SDK calls like LookupEntityAttachment and SetEntityCollisionGroup.

SourcePawn changes
SourcePawn 1.11 contains a major rewrite of the compiler. This rewrite is intended to allow rapid feature development and improve the health and stability of the language. It fixes many bugs, and as a result, old programs may not compile. Programs compiled with an older compiler continue to run fine.

Notably, SourcePawn 1.11 does not hide errors in unused functions anymore. If a stock is unused, and has errors, the errors should be fixed or the stock should be removed.

More common errors for 1.11 upgrades are listed in a separate post including details how to fix them.
