I'll pose my question again. Why the holy FUCK are you being such a douche in here?

I'm wondering the same.

It's garry's mind that has finally broken I think. He's got rid of them all except for the really useful ones. :pwn:

I'll post a pic of my carrier when I'm back from uni. It's all done except for decoration and some armour tweaking.

Fixed that for you.

I'm currently working on a Reaction Control System ([url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_control_system]RCS[/url]) for space fighters. I quickly mocked up a fighter that I will test this on:
[img]http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/6903/sbstarcombat0000.jpg[/img]

I'm trying to make it semi-realistic. First of all, the main engine will be much stronger than the RCS thrusters, meaning that if you want to quickly change orientation you will have to actually point in that direction and turn the engine on. The RCS thrusters can only be switched on or off. Warning, technical speech ahead: I will use the outputs of the PID loops I have to control the pulse width of a digital signal with a fixed wavelength that I send to the thrusters. An example could be a wavelength of 0.35s, with a minimum pulse width of 0.05s (20Hz. The max update rate of thrusters in GMod is 25Hz) and a maximum of 0.30s allowing the thrusters to cool down.

The hardest part of this is designing a good control method for whoever is flying the spaceship, allowing him both control and the ability to quickly react.

[Jackpody]

It's quite meh but I think it's OK. Hell, it was just made to cruise around on servers. It's not using the lua wheel but it's actually really stable at high speeds.

The Geschützwagen is taking shape

[Pringles.]

[QUOTE=Azur;30811199]So yeah anyway I made this tool for you guys:

It makes the props you click on have the perfect sphere collision models just like lua wheel, but you can also right click to change radius and hit reload to reset the props. Works on all prop_physics and most gmod_* stuff (includes wire), just not thrusters or wheels (to prevent crashes).

Couple known issues that I'm gonna sort sooner or later:

- Constraints are removed from the prop
- Using it on wheel entities (spawned with the wheel / wire wheel tool) causes crashes, so I made it not work on those entities
- Thrusters don't work with this applied (also disabled the tool working on these)

Future plans:

- Make it turn already spawned wheels into sphere collision wheels, and somehow retain the settings..

Oh it's dupeable too.[/QUOTE]

after dupe the weights reset to 1 and i cant adjust the size.

You didn't save the material changes I made :(

Also, apparently the contraptions section is part of the screenshot section now.

God knows why. This means that this thread will have to be our main stay as any threads for single contraptions will be lost under various poses in minutes.

I figured it would be a matter of time before this happened, and it all became messed up to hell.

[QUOTE=Kickasskyle;30921797]I figured it would be a matter of time before this happened, and it all became messed up to hell.[/QUOTE]

Yeah... I figured too. The alternative is we split and make our own forum, but, though its probably our best option, I really don't feel like dealing with that as I haven't finished an identical project that started as the result of a split from the largest Balto fansite.

[Vegh]

Great now we will have to post our shittest contrapions to make this theard alive.

[Evoc]

This really peeves me off.

[Vegh]

At least they cloud make a side side fourm.

[Balto-the-Wolf-]

I just hope there was some kind of a decent reason for this.

[Gibbo]

Thanks Facepunch for burying us under more useless shit.

[Vegh]

Yeah thanks a ton.

The Mini-Minor that I'm working on. Just have to get it driving.

I also noticed that this picture doesn't have the tail lights, but they are on there.

Looking pretty slick but are you sure the side profile is correct, looks abit long at the back.
Though that could be the angle of the picture talking.

Small single-seater.

Graphics are ugly as fuck (crap-comp), and so is the car, but the main point was trying to slap as much car-shit into a small chassis as possible:

- Independent suspension in the front
- Live axle suspension in the rear
- Proper steering
- Current top speed ; ~21Mph / ~34Kph
- Inline 4 engine, with an output of an astonishing 22hp(!)
[IMG]http://i53.tinypic.com/6puh3r.jpg[/IMG]

It's still a WIP of course, so things to come:

- Details & interior
- Light system
- Gears (Want it to hit 30Mph / ~48Kph)

Also, I'd like to give a thanks to everyone at the Contraptions subforum (R.I.P) for all the great ideas and tutorials they have provided. Which again has made this shitmobile possible!

RIP Contraptions Forum, you were an inspiration to builders everywhere. You will be missed.

In other news, Garry has become my sworn enemy. I used to like him, couldn't understand why everyone always dissed him, but now I know.

[release][B]If you're reading this Garry, you're a damn fool for removing the best forum section on this website.[/B][/release]

fantastic.

now i can't tell the difference between a contraption thread and a shitty ragdoll pose thread.
thanks garry.
