Hud Avatar is broken

[Owez]

Hello,

I have recently published a HUD on GitHub but I am having a problem that arised around a month ago. Quite a while ago, I published this thread asking how to make the players avatar appear in a HUD. In that post, the last solution worked perfectly until a month ago as stated.

I have tried it on a separate script to make sure it wasn't any script updates messing around with it but it seems not. I have tried validating the game on steam, changing settings, etc.. but nothing has worked so far.

The solution that I had from the old thread was this:

-- Make a hook that scans for when LocalPlayer() is active
hook.Add("OnEntityCreated", "LocalPlayerCreate", function(pl) -- first Entity is LocalPlayer

    hook.Remove("OnEntityCreated","LocalPlayerCreate") -- Call this hook once

    -- Display avatar (here LocalPlayer() return is valid player)
    local Avatar = vgui.Create("AvatarImage")
        Avatar:SetSize(72,72)
        Avatar:SetPos(27.5,ScrH()-142)
        Avatar:SetPlayer(LocalPlayer(),64)
end)

and as stated before, it stopped working. It is using the vgui method & I am wondering if a game update has caused this. This script has always been running in the: "Garry's Mod/garrysmod/lua/autorun/client/" directory.

~ Thanks in advance, Owez.
