I'm working on it slowly. Between school and not really having any ability to multiplaytest, it's getting bumped down on the list of priorities.
You should make it so the "ghosts" or whatever can see the other "ghosts". Set each "ghost" a networked variable like IsGhost or something, then on the client loop through all the players and if they are a ghost and you aren't then make them invisible, if they are a ghost and you are also a ghost make them visible.

Dead can only see dead. Live players can obviously only see the live players. I'll have to wait for the update to come through as it seems a little pointless to play in SP. Keep it up!

I'm working on trying to figure out why that usermessage fails right now, though. If anyone has any idea why the usermessage simply won't hook... The top of autorun/client/inversion.lua was modded to include a message, which printed. When I moved the message to below usermessage.hook, it didn't. But there were no errors. It seems to work on my computer, but not my roommate's. I'm trying to determine right now if that's a host issue or an addon issue or what. Edit: Steam isn't exactly being cooperative at the moment, but I'll have an update for you guys soon enough.
Don't worry, I haven't given up. There's just the matter of making sure visibility works (last tested time was this morning, and it wasn't quite working correctly). The mod will from now on require that both the server and the clients have it beforehand (I think?) for it to work properly. I'm fairly certain AddCSLuaFile isn't working right for one reason or another. Or I'm not working it right. Either way, it's about time for an update.
This is a great concept. You will have my download when you've worked out the kinks.
The dead should be able to see the living and fuck with them and make nosies and stuff. Also OP your avatar rules!
So, it's been about a month. My current method of testing is taking too long, and the laptop that I was going to fix is still sitting on the kitchen table, drawing ire from those I was testing with. It's past time I ask someone here to help me test out. I'm on between 6 and 10 PM EST, if I'm not entirely distracted (admittedly, little if any work has been done since I bought Lost Odyssey friday). PM me if you are on regularly during those times, and willing to test with me. We have to use hamachi because my router seems to have no port forwarding, and it's one of those cheap ones that doubles as a modem, so no, I can't replace it.
Once you finish this, Can you make a ghost mod where instead of going to a inverted place, You become a ghost and other ghosts can see you while live people see a faint outline.
[QUOTE=Fire and Ice]Once you finish this[/quote] No testers means I cannot finish a multiplayer addon.

I don't know where it is on european keyboards, but on the American ones, you hold shift and then press this key right here: /.

Cool, fix the bugs and get this released.
I can also test, I have a dedicated server that can be used. Also I have a friend who might be able to help find errors in code or problems that your having. Add me on steam if you want: madbasser8734 .
I'm happy to test as well, if you're still accepting testers. Add me on Steam as wkeyboard :) Good luck! This addon looks awesome!
Where's the download? It's removed or something. Was this released already or is it still pending?
So it's like warcraft ?.
^bump?
^Bump!
I apologize for the delays, everyone. I'd offer up the usual excuses, but they make no difference. I appreciate your anticipation, and will get this to you, though it is turning out to be later rather than sooner. To answer your question, KirbyMKII, I suppose it is (visually) like WoW's system. And I'd kindly request the discussion thereof end at that.
Any update? :uhoh:
does this need a re-upload or is it just me not being able to see it?
:crying:, I want release!
And how about players from the dead world appear in the real world for a few seconds sometimes (the dead people don't see any change) ?
This sounds really cool. I would like to see a video of this as I don't have gmod on my current computer to test this on.
Can someone reupload this? I really want to see how it performs :<
^bump? I'm also interested in seeing how this performs as well. If anyone who sees this post still has this script, could you post a link to it on garrysmod.org? I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in a script like this.
Seeing as its 2 years old, it probably won't even work at all.
then can someone remake it?
This was always a good addon, but I preferred a manual switch. I think Overv worked on alternate-universes-within the same server too... I think he called them User Spaces or something. Either him or Jinto.
