[QUOTE=G4MB!T;38204062]if you are inside a swep (IE PrimaryAttack) use:
[lua]
self.Weapon:SendWeaponAnim(ACT_VM_HITCENTER);
[/lua]

else you can force it on the player by using

[lua]
ply:GetActiveWeapon():SendWeaponAnim(ACT_VM_HITCENTER)
[/lua][/QUOTE]

You may have misread my post, I need this for third person animations, not the view model.

[QUOTE=samm5506;38204248]You may have misread my post, I need this for third person animations, not the view model.[/QUOTE]

You might not like this, but use SetWeaponHoldType("melee") on the weapon, then self.Owner:SetAnimation( PLAYER_ATTACK1 ), then set the holdtype back.

This is something I have tried, but unfortunately it's not exactly networked. I figure there's a better way to do this with animations so that it is networked.

You need to call that entire function shared

[QUOTE=skullorz;38204453]You need to call that entire function shared[/QUOTE]

SWEP.PrimaryFire is only called on the client for the weapon owner.

I'm trying to get a bone position however it keeps telling me the boneindex is nil.
I think it's because I'm calling it before the player has gotten any model yet but I'm unsure on how to fix it.
If I hook it to ShowHelp or anything similar it works.

I'm calling it in either the loadout or spawn hook.

[editline]Edited:[/editline]
Nvm, Got it. Is there any prettier way though?

[lua]function RemoveHead( ply )
timer.Simple( 5, function() ply:ManipulateBoneScale( ply:LookupBone("ValveBiped.Bip01_Head1"), Vector(0,0,0)) end )

hook.Add( "PlayerLoadout", "RemoveHead", RemoveHead)[/lua]

So I've tried several things, but everytime I try to color my printer differently it just turns to the default Purple.

[lua]function ENT:Initialize()
self:SetModel("models/props_c17/consolebox01a.mdl")
self:PhysicsInit(SOLID_VPHYSICS)
self:SetMoveType(MOVETYPE_VPHYSICS)
self:SetSolid(SOLID_VPHYSICS)
self:SetColor( (125,80,30,255) )
local phys = self:GetPhysicsObject()
if phys:IsValid() then phys:Wake() end
self.sparking = false
self.damage = 100
self.IsMoneyPrinter = true
timer.Simple(180, PrintMore)
self:SetNWInt("PrintA",0)
end[/lua]

[kp3]

Try Color(125,80,30,255) instead of just (125,80,30,255)

what must be going through your head in order to think "ye..people want to read through 150+ lines of code to find an error"

if you have a look at the code for the timer module it will error if the name is not a string, reps or delay are not numbers, the callback is not a function or you have more than 4 args.

change:
[lua]
timer.Create("KeyCrackDots", 0.5, 0, function(wep)
if not wep:IsValid() then timer.Destroy("KeyCrackDots") return end
local len = string.len(wep.Dots)
local dots = {[0]=".", [1]="..", [2]="...", [3]=""}

Is there anyway to block people spawning/duplicating things from the creation tab?

Not so great when people spawn health and armor packs on a RP server.

Thanks.

Found a solution for broken SNPC's. Turns out that [B]ai.GetTaskID[/B] function is bugged out and always returns nil. If anyone has broken SNPCs, I've made a [url=http://pastebin.com/h2P9yTxX]temporary fix[/url] until Garry gets around to this.

It works, perfectly, but console spams errors all over the joint.
This, repeatedly:

That worked, errors have stopped.
Another thing, the errors from the SetColor seem to be random. Sometimes they are there, sometimes they aren't.

I'm having a real hard time working with fonts, I understand the new system easy enough how ever..
When I get in-game, either the font I'm using works but soon-after fucks up and changes to some ugly ass bold font. Or when I use the context menu it'll change, or when I shift-tab into steam it'll change.

I can't get MY specific font to stick. I'm not sure if this is a GM13 bug, but it sure is annoying.
