Smoke Effect (Particle Emitter)

[Batzz]

Im pretty new to lua, Ive got a script that generates smoke and it works okay, except it only shows client side.

   if CLIENT then
   local ply = LocalPlayer()
   smokeParticle = ParticleEmitter( ply:GetPos() )
   SmokeTable = 
   {
   smokeParticle:Add( Model("particle/particle_noisesphere") , ply:GetPos()),
   smokeParticle:Add( Model("particle/particle_noisesphere") , ply:GetPos()),
   smokeParticle:Add( Model("particle/particle_noisesphere") , ply:GetPos())
   }
   for i=1,3 do
            local gray = math.random(75, 200)
            SmokeTable[i]:SetColor(gray, gray, gray)
            SmokeTable[i]:SetStartAlpha(255)
            SmokeTable[i]:SetEndAlpha(200)
            SmokeTable[i]:SetVelocity(VectorRand() * math.Rand(900, 1300))
            SmokeTable[i]:SetLifeTime(0)
            
            SmokeTable[i]:SetDieTime(math.Rand(50, 70))

            SmokeTable[i]:SetStartSize(math.random(140, 150))
            SmokeTable[i]:SetEndSize(math.random(1, 40))
            SmokeTable[i]:SetRoll(math.random(-180, 180))
            SmokeTable[i]:SetRollDelta(math.Rand(-0.1, 0.1))
            SmokeTable[i]:SetAirResistance(600)

            SmokeTable[i]:SetCollide(true)
            SmokeTable[i]:SetBounce(0.4)

            SmokeTable[i]:SetLighting(false)
	end
	
   print("lol2")
   end
    ParticleEffectAttach(Model("particle/particle_noisesphere"),PATTACH_ABSORIGIN_FOLLOW,smokeParticle,0)	

Can anyone help?

[Yuri6037]

That's normal...

You'll need to comunicate an information saying other clients to start particle emitter.

For example, on server side entity do self:SetNWBool("DoSmoke", true)

Then on client check if that NWBool is true and spawn particles if that's the case.

Second way : your particle emiter is desined to be static (always emits, never stops), then you can just spawn your particles.

I assume in your case, it's an effect you want, so you can simply use NW bools...

[Batzz]

Can you elaborate? I dont really understand.
Edit
Can I not just attach i to an entity ?

[Batzz]

I changed the code around , however Ive got a new error :

This is the new code :

if(CLIENT) then
function SWEP:CreateSmoke()
		
		local smokeParticle = ParticleEmitter( self.Owner:GetPos() )
			SmokeTable = 
	   {
	   smokeParticle:Add( Model("particle/particle_noisesphere") , self.Owner:GetPos()),
	   smokeParticle:Add( Model("particle/particle_noisesphere") , self.Owner:GetPos()),

Can you post the whole knife file in code tags? I have a feeling that you're not calling it serverside

Hold on I'll start RealisticRoleplay with your weapon to see exactly where the problem is.

[editline]31st March 2015[/editline]

Your weapon has so much errors ! I got a warning everytime I hit an entity : "Trying to start a new lag compensation session while one is already active!"

And it crashs at line 114 : attempt to call method GetAimVector (a nil value).

[editline]31st March 2015[/editline]

Succeeded to correct errors and even warning, however it does not make any damage to the pointed entity.

[editline]31st March 2015[/editline]

I got that which no longer creates lua errors however I can't test the Right-Click, because I'm not on a TTT server so it says attempted to create unknown entity type ttt_knife_proj
