I almost gave up on 3d2d and was about to move onto something else. Never give up because I finally accomplished whatt I was looking for! So proud of myself :)

That's really great! I'm glad you were able to finish what you started. A sense of accomplishment is one of the best feelings in the world. It's one of the things I love about programming.

Glad to see you're not trying to sell your first 3d2d script on scriptfodder. *cough*
Good job!

Made it into a circle. And changed the direction of where its going.
Pretty lazy way of doing this but I made the circle a .png for people that want to get the job done faster.
I'll make a better tutorial then the one I just posted because that was ass.

Finished my tutorial. Check it out for people that are wanting to learn 3d2d!

Thought I'd share what I've done in the time I should be studying;

[url]http://sperpes.alig96.com/leaderboards[/url]

Its a website that tracks all the data from my TTT server. I'm only tracking kills/deaths and experience at the moment. My hopes is to make the server and website closely intertwined with each other.

At the moment every time the server changes to a new map, it checks if it has meta data in the database, if not it registers it and will instantly show up on the website. (Without pictures and a description but I have an admin interface to change them)

Also when the player joins the server and views the loadscreen it registers them to the database. You can also login with your steam account, but it doesn't do anything aside from well let you be logged in there's nothing to do at the moment haha.

My hopes is for people to say maybe upload maps and have it go directly on the server when they're a high enough rank or maybe have players rate maps and leave comments typical stuff and view round logs after each round.

Who knew databases were could be so sexy.... Any advice or recommendations that I could add or maybe some stats to track would be appreciated! (Thinking of tracking #of traitor kills, bullets fired, amount of times a weapon has been used or picked up etc)

I think you should make the wells even in height.

Just wanted to ask what method of Steam OpenID auth are you using? I'm thinking about doing something with Steam integration? I'm thinking about doing something Steam related.

The sounds need adjustment, but they're a start.
I need to setup some basic car-lights.
I also need a particular way to re-render the car models so that the resolution is high.
Similar system for the View Model Of the gun.

I've scaled everything down, rendering things this small reduces the quality of the model.

you should disable bullet casing ejections on all the weapons so you dont have huge casings everywhere

Good job man 10/10

[YourStalker]

[QUOTE=CGHippo;49191423]I finished my knockout script.[/QUOTE]

Neat but as a suggestions maybe make it so they stand where they got knocked out? It seems kind of weird that they get back up where they originally were instead of where their body is.

Working on a 3D2D scoreboard. So far its been going well. I'm no to good with VGUI but I've been trying to make it look sharp.

So... floating rectangles that display info?

[Kevlon]

[QUOTE=Nookyava;49194246]So... floating rectangles that display info?[/QUOTE]

And a normal scoreboard is... a non-floating rectangle that displays info?

[Seris]

got the sounds to fade better than just choosing a sound based on distance. it now plays all 4 sounds at different volumes that fall off at certain ranges

[QUOTE=Kevlon;49194261]And a normal scoreboard is... a non-floating rectangle that displays info?[/QUOTE]

wrong.
typical scoreboards should be dodecahedrons with one face assigned to each player.
run out of faces? too bad.

[Nookyava]

[QUOTE=Kevlon;49194261]And a normal scoreboard is... a non-floating rectangle that displays info?[/QUOTE]

I wasn't stating it as a bad thing. I'm saying his scoreboard isn't going to be any different from the next one, unless they do anything different.

Basically each basic scoreboard looks the same.

[QUOTE=zeaga;49194845]He's made it very clear in his last few posts he's doing this for practice. You don't need to be original to be a good at scripting. What he's doing is fine.[/QUOTE]

Good lord, I was responding to the guy who claimed it looked like his.

I'm not going to continue this conversation, it was meant to be a lighthearted jab and you guys took it too personally.

Yeah, that was my bad. I got Chewy and CG's posts mixed up. Sorry about that.

Couldn't have done this without zombine who helped out with math.sin

function ENT:Think()
	local pos = self:GetPos()
	local curve = math.sin( CurTime() * 3 ) * 3
	self:SetPos( Vector(pos.x,pos.y,self.origin.z+curve) )
end

I'll go back and review it to try and fix it. I've been studying trigonometry so math.sin shouldn't be to tough.

Not bad. If you get it to work that way let me know, I've only found the way I can actively set the position of something is through a draw hook, making it seem like it's actually moving smoothly.

To not make it choppy, you need to increase how much it thinks per second. I think the function is Ent:NextThink.
