Model on DermaPanel?

[tripps41]

So I am trying to add a model to the dermapanel, but it is not showing up once I add it to the DermaList (DPanelList). Once I remove it from the list it shows up, is the dermapanel cutting it off?

Here is my code:

local PistolModel = vgui.Create( "DModelPanel" )
PistolModel:SetPos( 25, 15 )
PistolModel:SetSize( 500, 500 )
PistolModel:SetModel( "models/Items/357ammo.mdl" )
function PistolModel:LayoutEntity( Entity ) return end
function PistolModel.Entity:GetPlayerColor() return Vector ( 1, 0, 0 ) end
DermaList:Add(PistolModel)

You are not setting the camera position/angles.

Okay I added the camerapos, but it is still not showing.

local PistolModel = vgui.Create( "DModelPanel" )
PistolModel:SetPos( 25, 15 )
PistolModel:SetSize( 500, 500 )
PistolModel:SetModel( "models/Items/357ammo.mdl" )
function PistolModel:LayoutEntity( Entity ) return end
function PistolModel.Entity:GetPlayerColor() return Vector ( 1, 0, 0 ) end
PistolModel:SetCamPos( Vector( 50, 50, 50 ) )
DermaList:Add(PistolModel)

I still have this issue with it not showing on the derma panel, but another question popped into my head, how would I add a roundedbox behind the model and text?

[274112]

	local Frame = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
	Frame:SetSize( 800, 500 )
	Frame:SetPos( ScrW() / 2 - 250, ScrH() / 2 - 250 )
	Frame:SetTitle( "Testing Derma" )
	Frame:MakePopup()

		local icon = vgui.Create( "DModelPanel", Frame ) 
		icon:SetSize( 500, 500 )
		icon:SetPos( ScrW() / 2 - 195, ScrH() / 2 - 350 )
		icon:SetModel( LocalPlayer():GetModel() ) 

Not sure if this would be the issue but when you make your DFrame, you might have to add the name to the DModelPanel as I did with the

( "DModelPanel", Frame )

Well that did help with it showing off the screen, which I should of added to the frame in the first place, but it is not showing when I add it to the derma list ( DPanelList ).

So when I was adding text to the entity via (Ent:Draw) it is not facing me, what would I do to have it face me? I still have the issue with the model not showing, and how would I add a box behind the text and model?

function ENT:Draw()

	self:DrawModel()
	
	local Pos = self:GetPos()
	local Ang = self:GetAngles()
	
	bail = "Police Armory"
	
	surface.SetFont("HUDNumber5")
	local TextWidth = surface.GetTextSize(press)
	local TextWidth3 = surface.GetTextSize(bail)
	
	Ang:RotateAroundAxis(Ang:Forward(), 90)
	
	cam.Start3D2D(Pos + Ang:Forward() * 3.5, Ang, 0.11)
	    draw.WordBox(2, -TextWidth3*0.5, -30, bail, "HUDNumber5", Color(0, 0, 0, 100), Color(255,255,255,255))
	cam.End3D2D()
end

..You need to angle it correctly?

[QUOTE=Invule;50039872]..You need to angle it correctly?[/QUOTE]
I know that, but I was asking what angle should I set it to..

[Soren1]

[QUOTE=tripps41;50040092]I know that, but I was asking what angle should I set it to..[/QUOTE]

try 90 then 180 then -90 then -180 etc etc etc

[tripps41]

[QUOTE=Soren;50040108]try 90 then 180 then -90 then -180 etc etc etc[/QUOTE]

I had to do both 'Ang:RotateAroundAxis(Ang:Forward(), 90)' and 'Ang:RotateAroundAxis(Ang:Up(), 90)', but now how would I move it forward?

[tripps41]

Bump. Still having the issue with the ang and the model not showing.

[Soren1]

you have to set the vector of the 3d text
