I made a shared table called EV = {} where I put all clientside and serverside functions aswell as information about some stuff releated to mod, but when I try to call serverside function from EV called EV.ActivateEvents using concommand I receive info that

[ERROR] gamemodes/darkrp/gamemode/server/sv_events.lua:30: attempt to call field 'ActivateEvents' (a nil value)
  1. unknown - gamemodes/darkrp/gamemode/server/sv_events.lua:30
   2. unknown - lua/includes/modules/concommand.lua:69

but when I try to run it inside the file, it runs smoothly with no problem.

Is it because concommand is in shared realm ? What else can I use ?

You've said ActivateEvent and ActivateEvents, which is it supposed to be?

[Netheous]

[QUOTE=_Undefined;38943190]You've said ActivateEvent and ActivateEvents, which is it supposed to be?[/QUOTE]

Sorry, ActivateEvent and Events is the same function, I just mistyped it, it's "ActivateEvents"

I need help with "surface.CreateFont"

I have these 2 lines that need to be fixed but i don't know how, can anyone [U][B]explain[/B][/U] to me please?

Code:

surface.CreateFont( "coolvetica", 19, 500, true, false, "ScoreboardPlayerName" )
surface.CreateFont( "coolvetica", 22, 500, true, false, "ScoreboardPlayerNameBig" )

Fonts are made like this now:

[lua]
surface.CreateFont( "TheDefaultSettings", {
font = "Arial",
size = 13,
weight = 500,
blursize = 0,
scanlines = 0,
antialias = true,
underline = false,
italic = false,
strikeout = false,
symbol = false,
rotary = false,
shadow = false,
additive = false,
outline = false
} )
[/lua]

If you leave a property out of the table it will default to the one I just posted.

I believe it's materials/file.jpg, since gmod mounts gamemodedirectory/contents onto the filesystem when the gamemode is loaded. Gmod has always been finnicky about the gamemode contents folder so if it doesn't work properly, try the other way.

I tried your way, didn't work. Tried the way on the wiki and it removes the panels custom paint but it doesn't remove the models from being drawn.

Remove line 7 in that snippet, and try that.

How can I get if a entity in the map like a func_button is currently toggled?

Same result Thomas,

ItemPanel:SetModel(item.Model)
ItemPanel:SetSize(150,120)
ItemPanel.PaintOrig = ItemPanel.Paint
ItemPanel.Parent = ItemPanel:GetParent()
function ItemPanel.Paint(self, w, h)
render.SetScissorRect(0, 0, ScrW() / 2, ScrH() / 2, true)

end

[QUOTE=Moka;38946919]How can I get if a entity in the map like a func_button is currently toggled?[/QUOTE]

The best way would probably be to hook into PlayerUse, and if the entity used was a func_button, toggle the pressed state on it.

[lua]hook.Add( "PlayerUse", "blah", function( ply, ent )
if (ent:GetClass() == "func_button") then
ent.PressedState = not ent.PressedState
end
end )[/lua]

Won't work if your map toggles the button through hammer IO though.

Oh I see, try this:

Yeah, that will make it not draw at all, tried this and still nothing aside from what DPanelList already does with the Panels inside with Panel.NoClipping.
[lua]

ItemPanel:SetModel(item.Model)
ItemPanel:SetSize(150,120)
ItemPanel.PaintOrig = ItemPanel.Paint

I'm not quite sure if the x and y it asks for is relative to the screen or not.

Try this:

render.SetScissorRect( x, y, x + self:GetWide(), y + self:GetTall(), true )

The x, y is relative to 0,0 regardless of whether it's in a panel hook or not, just fyi

(so that should work)

I guess this method won't work then. You'll have to find the source code of DModelPanel and reimplement the paint method completely, render.SetScissorRect probably has to go somewhere specific to work with the 3d rendering.

Hey, I have a problem with a model.
I have a model I downloaded, I put in its lua, materials, and models, then also added them to FAST DL. Then I gerneated a resource.lua file yet it still doesn't work..

Do you have any red errors in the server console about missing files?

Also what do you mean "it doesn't work", do the files just not download on the client?

When you end the scissor rect, the w and h should still be the same.

[brandonj4]

[QUOTE=Chessnut;38948812]When you end the scissor rect, the w and h should still be the same.[/QUOTE]

Doesn't affect the models that are being drawn. -nope-

I've always used 0, 0, 0, 0, false and it works fine?

Last attempt:

ItemPanel:SetModel(item.Model)
ItemPanel:SetSize(150,120)
ItemPanel.PaintOrig = ItemPanel.Paint
ItemPanel.Parent = ItemPanel:GetParent()
function ItemPanel.Paint(self, w, h)
local x, y = gui.MousePos()
LocalPlayer():ChatPrint(x.."-"..y)
render.SetScissorRect(x, y, ScrW(), ScrH(), true)
self.PaintOrig(self)
render.SetScissorRect(0, 0, 0, 0, false)
end

Doesn't seem to affect the models.

[JohnnyCrazy]

Where is a good place, to run this:

[LUA] Player:ConCommand("record","demodemodemo");
print("Player is recording");
[/LUA]

I need this, before the Clients gets all the Server-data,
Didnt work at the InitialSpawn and OnConnect Hook

[lorde banana]

I don't think you can make a player do that

[JohnnyCrazy]

Well, you actually can, by running it Clientside

Any way to remove that oversized REC label?
