Deriving gamemode wont work! [GMOD 12]

[S0lll0s]

Hello my fellow g-tards out there...
I am working on a gameMODe called "AIDS-Mod". [I know this is a serious treat to many, begging you pardon, it is NOT meant to offend anyone!!]
I wanted to derive it from Fretta, but the VoteForChange menu wont show up. (f1/f2/f3/f4 wont do anything)
I tried starting via Fretta as overwrite, or directly; Deriving from Fretta or base; and I got two results when pressing F1:
- LUA error: [XXXX.lua]: attempt to call global 'ShowHelp' (a nil value) <-- Some like duh'
- Original GMOD Help (that flash-video-tutorial thingi)

When I derive from sandbox, neither 'C' nor 'Q' will bring up any menus, from which I conclude Deriving fails.
In both cases the console reads

registering gamemode fretta/sandbox derived from base
registering gamemode aidsmod derived from fretta/sandbox
CONSOLE SOMEWHAT IS DISABLED
registering gamemode aidsmod derived from base

after a "gamemode_reload".

I even commented out all my custom code, same result.

I hope you can help me!

Try moving the DeriveGamemode line to the top of shared.lua.

[Chessnut]

By the way, if you're making a gamemode, don't use hook.Add().
You should only use it when coding addons that need to override the gamemode.
Use the GM functions instead.

[lua]
hook.Add("HUDPaint", "myHUD", paintFunction);

-- Should be:

function GM:HUDPaint()
-- Your stuff here.
end;
[/lua]

I am stupid. I had it with all the GM:'s and removed them.
/note to self: Make Backups!!
well got them in again.
Also The code above is not quit true in case of the entity_aids:Think() hook, I changed it back again, for it doesnt work like it should (with the code up there).
I'll tell you my experiences with DeriveGamemode() on top of shared.lua in like 5 minutes!

EDIT: Bathub is gone for no reason. Gotta check this out...

WAAAAIT: just found this in my console:

Why is it late? It should be called right at the start...

EDIT: Got my bathtub fixed. F1 still gets the error above.

[editline]12th March 2012[/editline]

Could someone please just test how far it works for him?
[url]http://www.mediafire.com/?v02yl9hf0t2fbv6[/url]
To get yoursef aids type "lua_run NewAids()" into the console.

Thank you!

[Nerdeboy]

It's being sent too late because you're defining variables before sending the Lua files.

[S0lll0s]

I think it was just due to "gamemode_reload" andnot doing gamemode_reload_cl... lemme test it.
Have you tried my files yourself?

[Nerdeboy]

If you did a gamemode_reload that would be why.

[S0lll0s]

Yes I did. Same situation still. Can't find any errors though.
