[QUOTE=Insomnia Array;38801673]I've googled around for a while and couldn't find how to get a material or a texture of an HTML panel? Anyone know how to?

Or for that matter, does anyone know how else can I draw an HTML page in 3D space?[/QUOTE]

Hey guys, so the purpose of this script is to alter the salary a player gains depending on their rank. So for example, VIPs should earn 25% extra (hence, * 1.25).

[b]The Default DarkRP Code[/b]
[lua]function meta:PayDay()
if not IsValid(self) then return end
if not self:isArrested() then
DB.RetrieveSalary(self, function(amount)
amount = math.floor(amount or GAMEMODE.Config.normalsalary)
hook.Call("PlayerGetSalary", GAMEMODE, self, amount)
if amount == 0 or not amount then
GAMEMODE:Notify(self, 4, 4, LANGUAGE.payday_unemployed)
else
self:AddMoney(amount)
GAMEMODE:Notify(self, 4, 4, string.format(LANGUAGE.payday_message, CUR .. amount))
end
end)
else
GAMEMODE:Notify(self, 4, 4, LANGUAGE.payday_missed)
end
end[/lua]

[b] I tried implementing this, however it refuses to work[/b]
[lua]if self.Player:IsUserGroup("vip") then
amount = math.floor(amount)*1.25
elseif self.Player:IsUserGroup("superadmin") then
amount = math.floor(amount)*2
elseif self.Player:IsUserGroup("guest") then
amount = math.floor(amount)*1[/lua]

Can anybody help me get a fix for this? Struggled for a while now and anything I try breaks the payday system completely.

Massive thanks in advance

Remove the

from

and add an
[lua]end[/lua]
at the bottom, then try again.

It sits there in the panel metatable but always returns nil, on both HTML and DHTML panels. That's the problem with it, otherwise I wouldn't be asking.

The base hook (GM:AllowPlayerPickup) only works for prop_physics entity but not for my prop_garbage entity (not sure why). The reason I am doing this pseudo prop_physics is because I am making this entity mapper-friendly for a gamemode that was made 2 years ago (I am recoding this from scratch, really messy and all). However, that prop will be always unfrozen and grabbable by the player but the hook does nothing and outputs nothing with custom based entities.

I will thank you if you find the reason why.

How would you resize a player now that SetModelScale no longer works?
EnableMatrix is nil when accessing through a player.
code snippet which doesn't work because of EnableMatrix being nil
[LUA]

How can I make a SENT that i've created into another entity?
I want this for the convenience of having the class names on the SENT and the hooks inside the SENT.
Ex:
[lua]
function ENT:Initialize()
self = ents.Create("prop_vehicle_jeep")
end
[/lua]

Is there any way to get the clip size of a weapon?
I implemented one way but it only works with SWEPs.

Is there any easy way to get the player typing a console command from inside the console command's auto-complete function?
I need the auto-complete options to be dependant upon the player who is about to call the console command, and I can't see how I'd get the player before they've called the console command.

GetActiveWeapon():Clip1()

local Ammo = LocalPlayer():GetActiveWeapon():Clip1()

Ammo will be given the value of the weapon's first clip say something like in the .357 it would be 6

Yeah but that doesn't give the size of it, just the amount in the current clip.

Hello,

For my addon, I'm trying to set a global on button press, but it's 0 when I have the SWEP made, even if it's set on that button press. I also store an npc in the array, and need the button's text to change to what I stored. For some reason, it's not working. Here's my testing button (autorun):

if CLIENT then
 button = vgui.Create("DButton")
		
		button:SetParent(Panel)
		button:SetPos(25, 50)
		button:SetSize( 100, 30)
		--net.Receive("gotcha!", function () button:SetText("Pokeball " .. net.ReadString()) end)
		if not pokemoncaught[1] then
		button:SetText("Empty Pokeball 1")
		button.DoClick = function()
			net.Start("pokeball_give")
			net.SendToServer()
			buttons = 1
		end
		elseif pokemoncaught[1] then
			net.Start("give_monster")
			net.SendToServer()
			buttons = 1
			button:SetText(pokemoncaught[1]:GetClass())
		end

else
...
end

Trying to make my own version of ULX asay in a DarkRP server, because the ulx chat commands sometimes don't work.

In main.lua:

[lua]local function AdminAssistance(ply, args)
if args == "" then return "" end

local DoSay = function(text)
if text == "" then return end
for k, v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
if v == ply:IsAdmin() or v == ply then
GAMEMODE:TalkToPerson(v, col, "(HELP) " ..ply:Nick(), Color(255, 0, 0,255), text, ply)
end
end
end
return args, DoSay
end
AddChatCommand("/adminassist", AdminAssistance)[/lua]

Can't get it to work.

Is there any default lua command that applies like the ent_fire !picker does (ex: where you looking at prop/entity/player etc.)?

I can't check at the moment, but maybe someone knows or could tell me.

If I resource.AddFile a model, will it's related materials be included too?

It is cvars.Number(gm_your_cvar, default)

On the Additional Notes
If called for vmt or mdl files, all related files will be automatically added.

I'm guessing if you add a bleh.mdl file only the models bleh.vtx bleh.skn ect would get downloaded, but not the materials.

Hey ! The error is : attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'dir' (a nil value) ( Line 8 )

	 view = {}
        local vec = Vector( -200, -32, 400 )
        local dist = 64
         function CalcView( ply, origin, angles, fov )
                view.origin = net.ReadEntity(npc):GetPos() + vec
                view.angles = Angle(64,0,0)
                view.fov = fov
	        view.dir = LPCameraScreenToVector( gui.MouseX(), gui.MouseY(), ScrW(), ScrH(), view.angles, math.rad( view.fov ) )
		view.tr = util.QuickTrace( view.origin, view.dir * 2048 )
             return view
        end

LPCameraScreenToVector function.

function LPCameraScreenToVector( iScreenX, iScreenY, iScreenW, iScreenH, angCamRot, fFoV )
    -- This code works by basically treating the camera like a frustrum of a pyramid.
    -- We slice this frustrum at a distance "d" from the camera, where the slice will be a rectangle whose width equals the "4:3" width corresponding to the given screen height.
    local d = 4 * iScreenH / ( 6 * math.tan( 0.5 * fFoV ) ) ;
  
    -- Forward, right, and up vectors (need these to convert from local to world coordinates
    local vForward = angCamRot:Forward();
    local vRight   = angCamRot:Right();
    local vUp      = angCamRot:Up();
  
    -- Then convert vec to proper world coordinates and return it
    return ( d * vForward + ( iScreenX - 0.5 * iScreenW ) * vRight + ( 0.5 * iScreenH - iScreenY ) * vUp ):Normalize();
end

Thanks in advance.

Is gui.OpenURL working for anyone else, I'm sure I heard somewhere that he re-added it.
I run it clientside, gui.OpenURL("google.com"). Nothing appears. The function exists because it doesn't spew out any errors.

It works fine for me. Try prefixing using [url]http://www[/url]. I know https doesn't work.

Very new to this, but I am trying to figure out why this is returning a nil value. I've gone through the initialization of the inventory, and followed it back to the error that is being displayed.
