PANEL:GetHTMLMaterial() broken for gmod12 - Developers

It returns nil instead of the material, causes some things such as playx to break. Not sure if I should put that here or into the help section since this is rather related to coding.

Thanks. I was wondering what broke

I guess garry's GM13 menu will be more than fucked. (Why he used HTML in the first place is beyond me)

Garrys ruining gmod! lolz

[QUOTE=Garry]Oh man what a day. I finally got Linux and Mac versions of Garry’s Mod compiling and working properly. I’ve sent the update to Valve so it should hopefully be live quite soon. So Linux dedicated servers and Mac should be working now. I am aware of three issues right now. [b]1. HTML panels sometimes are invisible.[/b] 2. Spawnicons all load at the same time - causing freezing when you open the spawnmenu. 3. GMod 13 Beta isn’t fixed. I’ll hopefully get some time to fix those issues over the weekend and will release a patch early next week. Let me know if there’s any other issues![/QUOTE] Could be related to that.

[QUOTE=BananasRP;36565105]lolz[/QUOTE] I wish we still had :frogout: in situations like these.

Garry said that the new update changed the way HTML controls work in the source engine. This should explain all of the errors.

Yeah, I have the same problem with PlayX and other things like the z0r player. Does anyone know by chance when (or if) this will be fixed?

Can't be fixed until an update.

Is there a fix for this though? I tried to follow an example code from the [url=http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Panel/GetHTMLMaterial]wiki[/url]. Can someone help me out? :(

Is there somewhere where I can find better documentation on GetHTMLMaterial because the wiki was the only thing I could find. I'm willing to do effort, but I'm stuck.

[url]http://pastebin.com/xSeKmd0D[/url] usage: local mat = resource.GetHTMLImage(MAT_3);hook.Add("HUDPaint", "asdasd", function() surface.SetDrawColor(255, 255, 255, 255); surface.SetMaterial(mat); surface.DrawTexturedRect(0, 0, mat:Width(), mat:Height());end); [URL="http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1260809&p=41252293&viewfull=1#post41252293"]Source[/URL] This should still work, but didnt got the time to test it yet.

That's a bit different though. What I'm trying to achieve in the end is to stream .mp4's to my server. And not with gamemodes like the Cinema that is limited to YouTube and Twitch etc.. I want to stream my own stuff.

I recommend you use HTML:SetVisible(false) and HTML:PaintAt(x,y,w,h) instead.
