GMod - What are you working on? May 2015 (#45)

[BFG9000]

Well since you're already rendering a 3d2d panel why not just do the text drawing within the 3d2d context?

Ah, fuck. I don't have anything to labeling with atm.

I found an extra, hidden directory. Whatta' ya' know? I wonder what's inside...

[QUOTE=Llamalord;47658793]Basewars was an edit of Light RP 2009 by Rick Dark (The Original Dark RP) and then modified into RPDM by partyvan and then edited by a 13 year old version of myself. The networking and coding in that gamemode still makes me cringe, it was all done in NWVars.[/QUOTE]

Maybe needs some more sound effects, at least it works for now.

This just seems to return nil annoyingly. I suppose this information isn't available outside of the SWEP environment itself or just doesn't exist on the built in weapons?

I've moved the whole thing to 3D2D now anyway because just using the Cam3D was pretty fucking dumb. This is much easier!

Check if the curweapon IsScripted(), if so use that code snippet, else have a variable saved which if the current clip is larger than the number saved to the variable, set the variable to the clip so that once the player initially switches they'll have the full clip and the variable will be set to that

I found this very annoying, so I made a little utility library so I don't have to worry about what I'm calling it on, it will give me the values I want.

I set up a table for the default weapons with their clip sizes, then check to see if its a scripted weapon or not. If not, I reference the table.

Mostly unrelated, but if that is the same model I think it is, then this might be of use:

if CLIENT then
	SWEP.RenderTarget = GetRenderTarget( "avp_pulserifle_ammo", 64, 64, false )
	surface.CreateFont( "7 SEGMENTAL DIGITAL DISPLAY", 50, 400, true, false, "7segment", false, false )
	
	local mat
	
	mat = Material( "models/m41a/pulse_rifle_ammo" )
	mat:SetMaterialTexture( "$basetexture", SWEP.RenderTarget )
	
	mat = Material( "models/m41a/pulse_rifle_ammo_zero" )
	mat:SetMaterialTexture( "$basetexture", SWEP.RenderTarget )
	
	mat = Material( "avp_pulserifle_ammo" )
	mat:SetMaterialVector( "$tint", Vector( 1.2, 0, 0 ) )
	
	local color_red = Color( 189, 000, 000, 255 )
end

function SWEP:ViewModelDrawn( )
	local old
	
	old = render.GetRenderTarget( )
	
	render.SetRenderTarget( self.RenderTarget )
	render.SetViewPort( 0, 0, 64, 64 )
	render.Clear( 255, 000, 000, 255, true )
	
	cam.Start2D( )
		surface.SetDrawColor( color_black )
		surface.DrawRect( 0, 00, 64, 7 )
		surface.DrawRect( 0, 57, 64, 7 )
		
		draw.DrawText( string.format( "%02d", self:Clip1( ) ), "7segment", 0, 7, color_black, TEXT_ALIGN_LEFT )
	cam.End2D( )
	
	render.SetViewPort( 0, 0, ScrW( ), ScrH( ) )
	render.SetRenderTarget( old )
end

Replace font with a seven segment font of your choice ( [url=http://www.dafont.com/7-segmental-digital-display.font]I like this one[/url] ), preferably one that is white text on a black background.

This will make it so the ammo counter on the side of the model works. The code is hilariously old ( from 2011 ), but the concept is there.

That seems incredibly useful...I was considering writing something similar myself because there's a ton of boilerplate floating around my code right now.

Yay stencils, like 3-4 of them .. and had to add two more math functions to make the effect.
Towers also now copy the ground texture (Unless if its a displacement surface or nodraw texture)

Now to the bots and their AI .. not really sure how I should make them act.

Maybe he's actually making boxes and not cubes, and is calling all of us dumb because boxes.

Wait wait, we can go more in depth. All the cubes- i mean boxes- have rating icons on them. Maybe they represent something? 4*6 Lua King = 1 Box?

Yeah, no. The video doesn't explain anything

If that's game lag, maybe you should find a way to reduce the most explosions. Also, that is very OP in anything indoors.

Looks like you're doing a minecraft kind of thing, or at least something with voxels. Looks like you're testing drawing many of them and collisions. You can build a world with them later.

Am I right?

No, I was being vague so I could be a slightly bigger douche later. FPtje got it though, more or less. It's a general purpose voxel module. Going through with douchery part 2 anyway, should be ready by the end of the weekend at this rate.

I Would love to see where this project goes. I once made a voxel engine with unity and c#. It was simple, could remove/place blocks and it had a chunk based loading system. I Used the marching cubes algorithm to draw the mesh around the generated voxels. Also perlin noise is a great algorithm for generating landscapes. Simplex noise is less detailed but much more efficient. Anyway good luck!
