Noclip Invisibility

[Spacewolf]

I've searched around but I can't seem to find anything.

If anyone could make an addon that causes the player to become invisible while noclipping, that'd be great.

[ralle105]

[lua]
hook.Add("PlayerNoclip","derp",function(p)

if p:IsEffectActive(EF_NODRAW) then

p:RemoveEffects(EF_NODRAW)
else

p:AddEffects(EF_NODRAW)
end
end)
[/lua]

ralle105 is 100% right, but...

[lua]
hook.Add("PlayerNoClip", "InvisibleNoClip", function(player)
if (self.IsNoDrawn == nil) then
self.IsNoDrawn = player:IsEffectActive(EF_NODRAW);
end;

if (player:GetMoveType() == MOVETYPE_NOCLIP) then
player:AddEffects(EF_NODRAW);
elseif (!self.IsNoDrawn) then
player:RemoveEffects(self.IsNoDrawn);
else
self.IsNoDrawn = nil;
end;
end);
[/lua]

For compatability amongst other things.

Thanks guys.

Hi kuro :3:

Err, neither of these seem to work. A friend told me to put it in an addon folder he had made, so I put it in the autorun part of lua:

"Hook 'InvisibleNoClip' Failed: [addons\addon_pack\lua\autorun\noclip.lua:2] attempt to index global 'self' (a nil value)"

I also put it in lua\autorun and it gave me the same error.

kuro,you used a different variable name when fixing that :colbert:,also,please,don't call the variable "player"

Sorry, written in browser.

And I always call the variable "player", I never have problems. Just my coding style and naming convention :(

If you need to call player.GetAll in the same function, then you will have problems.

Lol how is this informative

I never do need to do that, because I define local _player = player at the top of my script. Don't mind me, I just have a very strict naming convention and obsessive compulsive disorder :(

Pretty odd way to do it. More efficient though, not that it matters much at that level.

[Spacewolf]

[lua]hook.Add("PlayerNoClip", "InvisibleNoClip", function(player)
if (player.IsNoDrawn == nil) then
player.IsNoDrawn = player:IsEffectActive(EF_NODRAW);
end;

if (player:GetMoveType() != MOVETYPE_NOCLIP) then
player:AddEffects(EF_NODRAW);
elseif (!player.IsNoDrawn) then
player:RemoveEffects(player.IsNoDrawn);
else
player.IsNoDrawn = nil;
end;
end);[/lua]

Using that, I no longer get a lua error, but instead of being invisible, my playermodel loses its animations and its shadow disappears. Wtf lua

[Spacewolf]

Any other ideas fellas? :(

Oh damn, I didn't mean to double post.

[ralle105]

Clientside
[lua]
hook.Add("PrePlayerDraw","invis",function(p)

if p:GetMoveType() == MOVETYPE_NOCLIP then

render.SetBlend(0)
end
end)

hook.Add("PostPlayerDraw","invis",function(p)

if p:GetMoveType() == MOVETYPE_NOCLIP then

render.SetBlend(1)
end
end)
[/lua]

[.kurozael]

What ralle105 said is the best and most efficient way.

[Spacewolf]

Thanks I'll try that.

Sheesh, how can you tell by just looking at it?

Steam's not loading for me, I'll see in a bit.

[editline]15th November 2010[/editline]

It works! Hallelujah! Thanks for doing this :3:

One thing though, because it's clientside, if I send this to a friend, will it work for both of us if the other noclips or will it only work for one person?
