What do you need help with? V3

[robz]

Hey, I'm trying to get "pointshop" on my server but everytime people connect they are automatically disconnected due to too many lua errors.

Couldn't include file 'includes\modules\datastream.lua' (File not found) (@addons/pointshop/lua/autorun/pointshop.lua (line 1))

[ERROR] addons/pointshop/lua/autorun/pointshop.lua:1: Module not found!
1. require - [C]:-1
2. unknown - addons/pointshop/lua/autorun/pointshop.lua:1

Datastream was removed in favour of the net library.

Yeah i just found this out, I'm not entirely sure how to switch over to net though.

[zapha]

I could need some bright lua brains to look at some peace of code :)

Ah so i am, thanks dude. Your probably the guy to ask, do you have a little bit of code for giving players points over time?

Yup. In that thread.

I'm making a swep from, damn them... Halo Sweps. I keep getting an error with the line

		local ang = (traceRes.HitPos - frball.startpos):GetNormalized()

... It's been a long time since I've posted. I tried to debug it with print( "what it is: " <code> ), but that returned new errors.
Future errors are expected, but please help me! &#21161;&#12369;&#12390;&#65281;

If you want help with errors then post the errors and all the code that is involved.

Tell me if you need client, I didn't change it.

I disagree, you can use [URL="https://www.google.ca/#hl=en&tbo=d&sclient=psy-ab&q=+site:facepunch.com+search+shit&oq=+site:facepunch.com+search+shit&gs_l=serp.12...2404.3735.0.5083.11.11.0.0.0.1.226.1046.8j2j1.11.0.les%3B..0.0...1c.1.BHiGKtaSgJY&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&fp=35e5ed9417e1ece2&bpcl=39314241&biw=1600&bih=733"]this[/URL].

Anyone know how to make clientside first person animations? like how you run with your gun for customizable weaponry and such. I'm really curious to learn how.

On a guess, you should probably be using :GetNormal() instead of :GetNormalized().

[wug]

Does anyone know where i can find a hud that shows me the health of an npc im looking at, or something like that? I had one for gmod 12 but for some inexplicable reason it has broken.

[luavirusfree]

^I've seen that before. Search for it, or make it! ... But I do recall there being a problem with npc:GetHealth() ... It's been too long.

Okay, well now I need to remove the Print lines... Then I'll check for more errors.

[ERROR] lua/weapons/mario_fireballs/shared.lua:94: bad argument #2 to '__sub' (Vector expected, got nil)

[Crazy Quebec]

[QUOTE=luavirusfree;38642545]So, how long should I wait for help?
...Still waiting.[/QUOTE]

You never told us what errors you're getting.

[luavirusfree]

That's the error... Still.

[ERROR] lua/weapons/mario_fireballs/shared.lua:94: bad argument #2 to '__sub' (Vector expected, got nil)

I removed ized. It now says normal.

[Crazy Quebec]

As the error says frball.startpos is not a vector and is in fact nil. This is because you commented out the line where it is defined.

[luavirusfree]

Lol... time to test. It's meant to be shotpos.

[editline]30th November 2012[/editline]

And nowm ,,,

[ERROR] lua/weapons/mario_fireballs/shared.lua:96: attempt to call global 'ValidEntity' (a nil value)
  1. unknown - lua/weapons/mario_fireballs/shared.lua:96

Failed to load sound "npcortort_explode2.wav", file probably missing from disk/repository

[editline]30th November 2012[/editline]

I may have fixed that... I need to check the sound, but many haven't been playing.

[Chessnut]

Replace ValidEntity with IsValid.

[luavirusfree]

No, the sound is correct. How do I fix that? (Threat link, perhaps?)

[G😹nz😻]

How i can get the life time of the entity

[munch]

I have an entity that is a football, I want to make it so that when I hit the ball with a crowbar it will move. I think the only way to do this and how it's done in CSS football maps is to use phys_pushscale _.. I can't get this to work on my entity for some reason it just doesn't shift, I can walk into it and it'll move and stuff.

Any ideas?

[.\\Shadow}]

How can I make an entity not collide with players, yet still call ENT.StartTouch when a player goes through it?

[G😹nz😻]

[QUOTE=.\\Shadow};38646769]How can I make an entity not collide with players, yet still call ENT.StartTouch when a player goes through it?[/QUOTE]

setting the collision groups into debris

[LUA]ent:SetCollisionGroup(COLLISION_GROUP_DEBRIS)[/LUA]

[amkoc]

Does anyone know how to make the new Drive library do a vehicle that doesn't noclip through everything?

[PortalGod]

is there any CalculateForceOffset documentation anywhere? or does anyone know how to use it?

[QUOTE=gonzalolog;38646991]setting the collision groups into debris[/QUOTE]
Doesn't work, COLLISION_GROUP_WEAPON also does not work.
