Without shaders .. and since stencils don't take alpha. This is damn hard to make doable. Might look into materials instead.

this sounds retarded, but I wonder what would happen if you'd use bumpmaps by making the cloud one big bump

[G😹nz😻]

It most likely not work since iirc you can only use bumped maps and translucency with refracted textures

[URL="https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1575434"]I got inspired[/URL] to try out Discord Webhooks, and I know it's probably been done a million times before, but I thought they were pretty cool:
[video=youtube;POJicM83qE8]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POJicM83qE8[/video]
All you need is a Webhook ID and token, which are easy to find on the website
[t]http://i.imgur.com/SXfwNpt.png[/t]

hook.Add( "PlayerSay", "Discord", function( ply, text )
	http.Post( "https://discordapp.com/api/webhooks/WEBHOOK_ID_HERE/WEBHOOK_TOKEN_HERE", { content = text, username = ply:Nick() } )
end )

[MysteryPancake]

For anyone interested, [URL="https://discordapp.com/developers/docs/resources/webhook#execute-webhook"]there's more parameters here[/URL]

automerge has failed me yet again

[Techbot]

if you feel fancy you can also override the webhooks avatar and get the steam avatar using the xml option on the profile.

Why not use the ISteamUser API for getting the avatar link?

local avatars = {}

local PostChat = function(avatar, name, txt)
	http.Post("https://discordapp.com/api/webhooks/" .. id .. "/" .. token, {
		content = txt,
		username = name,
		avatar_url = avatar,
	})
end

local SendChat = function(ply, txt)
	local id = ply:SteamID64()
	local name = ply:Nick()

	if (avatars[id]) then
		PostChat(avatars[id], name, txt)
	else
		http.Fetch("http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamUser/GetPlayerSummaries/v2/?key=" .. key .. "&steamids=" .. id,
			function(content)
				local tbl = util.JSONToTable(content)
				local avatar = tbl.response.players[1].avatarfull

				avatars[id] = avatar
				PostChat(avatar, name, txt)
			end,

			function()
			end
		)
	end
end

I've been working for monolith again, I really wanted to have a radar, those that uses render view JUST sucks...I wanted to use a 2d image, and wow...I can't believe the amount of hours and random numbers it took me to get it done...

[DEL]I used [url=https://lab.xpaw.me/steam_api_documentation.html#ISteamUser_GetPlayerSummaries_v2]GetPlayerSummaries[/url] to do it. It's nice because you can give multiple inputs and it outputs to JSON.[/DEL]

While I wait on someone at Facepunch to fix [URL="https://github.com/Facepunch/garrysmod-issues/issues/3268"]this issue[/URL], I've been working on the music a bit for my gamemode. Here's the new song that plays when you die.

Dear god that first bit scared me to death. Apart from that it's a good song keep up the good work; but if it's for somebody dying shouldn't it be just a short sound or are you planning on having a "game over" screen or something?

Yeah, there's an animation that plays when you die. It should make more sense once you see it.

Because steam api isn't often unreachable, steam community is.

Really adoring the work you've done so far on this project, looking fantastic so far!

[Tibba]

I liked the carvings so much that I re-made these. Just a little menu that lets you put together a sentence and drop an entity that displays the combination of words.
The images were a little big when I previewed them in the post, so here is the direct link.

Curious as to what you did here, are these actually illuminated clouds?

[Nak]

[QUOTE=VIoxtar;52604165]Curious as to what you did here, are these actually illuminated clouds?[/QUOTE]
Kinda .. kinda not. Its a trick using the mesh color options and some math.
Only added 1 cloud so far, going to add a few more.

If only I could use shaders for volumetric clouds, or stencils with alpha option.
