Is the folder holding the entity called "copper_money_printer"? Aren't there any other errors related to the entity itself?

[VoXBox]

[QUOTE=AlbertoBC;50760652]Is the folder holding the entity called "copper_money_printer"? Aren't there any other errors related to the entity itself?[/QUOTE]

Thanks for the quick reply, and no. Basically what I have is Steam/steamapps/common/GarrysMod/garrysmod/addons/custommoneyprinters/lua/entities/copper_money_printer.lua
And that's the only error I get

[Dynn]

There's probably an error in the file during server startup. Look for an earlier error.

[pervert]

Use code tags, then people can actually read the code.

Does it give an error or not?
You didn't even answer properly to what he asked.
Also what is the file structure of this entity?

I did reply correctly actually.... Ms333 asked if there were any errors before the one I posted an I said the one I'm getting is the only error I'm getting. Then Moku asked me to fix the format of my post so I did. And what do you mean file structure?

Oh ok then.

And it appears as if i only have the sh_init.lua and not the cl_init.lua or shared.lua.....
I only have cl_fonts.lua, sh_init.lua, and sv_stats.lua

But here is where they are all located

You have to put them all inside a folder...
Like, the weapons name folder. No wonder they are not working.
And as well, its not sh_init. Rename it to shared.lua

Okay... So I re named it. Now for the folder... Would I create one inside of entities just called customizablemoneyprinters and put all the .lua that were in the entities folder in the folder I just made?
Also! Now that I renamed that .lua none of the printers appear in the f4 menu...

But all those files, the cl_init, init, sh_init(wich should be shared) were they different printers or was it the code for same entity or to be various entities?
