• No Particles on Dedicated Servers?
    4 replies, posted
I run a dedicated server from home, and no matter what I try, I always get console errors when I try to utilize any particle system. I've made sure content from the requisite games is mounted, but to no avail.
There's some new folder hierarchy for Garry's Mod 13 that completely fucks up any particle modifications. You can't do anything except remove those mods. If you mean that even without mods, particles don't show, I don't know what to tell you besides reinstall all of the server content.
I'm talking default Episode 2 / TF2 particles. I've tried repositioning the files every which way, with the same result every time: Attempting to create unknown particle system 'debris_impact_stalactite' Attempting to create unknown particle system 'rock_splinter_stalactite' And this applies to all particle systems, not just that one. The other content for the game works, like models and shit, but not the particles.
Make sure to add and precache them in code: [CODE]game.AddParticles("particles/yourparticlefile.pcf" ) PrecacheParticleSystem( "actualparticlename" )[/CODE] This way they work perfectly fine for me, even on dedicated server.
I was not aware of game.AddParticles(). Thank you so fucking much for that.
