Hey I was wondering would it be possible to make a program that opens an RT camera screen on the monitor? It would be perfect for security systems.

So what do you think of this idea or is it not possible?

[thomasfn]

Would be a simple addition to AlarmZ, which I am going to release in the next update.

[DarKSunrise]

Have you gotten to configuring the cursor coordinates for my monitor yet? No offence, but I found that way too difficult, and some instructions would have been nice.

[thomasfn]

Sorry, been kinda distracted recently.

I've been doing a massive model make-over tonight and I will be aswell tommorow, adding in new models for everything and your model is on the list. Will look into cursor coords now.

Edit:
Ok I took a look, and you have your model rotated 90 degrees sideways. If you add the model to the pcspawn_monitor stool, you'll know what I mean. This means the cursor is always rotated 90 degrees aswell, and it appears inverted. Also, the origin appears offset - the screen is floating about 16 units above where the object position is reported. Move the screen down into the middle of the grid in your modelling program.

So:
1) Rotate your model the same way the CSS monitor is rotated
2) Move the screen into the middle, not floating above

Otherwise, great work.

Well, I have downloaded the latest SVN using tortoise.. Installed PC mod on almost clean gmod install. When I'm trying to use Chatserv I get an error, second time 3 of 4 times my whole Gmod freezez and crashes.. Anyone? Tried the version on gmod.org aswell. :/

[inf2]

This needs documentation about how to use a server.

Yes, I've read the thread.

It happened to me, and I found its because I had PCMod 2 and the server had PCMod 1. Unless you go on single player, I'd suggest deleting you PCMod folder, then it won't happen and you can use whatever version of PCMod the server has.

[LunaBadger]

Looks good but don't like the mac.

[chicob]

Burn the mac model please

[Eat_Pb]

People are to harsh on Mac's. They are good for some things...
Like cooking eggs on and making movies...
And pretty much nothing else...
Heh Heh, Cry some more...
P.S I like "..."s

[mbainrot]

and wasting money lol

[Valeour]

I've never used a mac or actually seen one in person. x3. But i like the look of my PC, it's awesome and shiney.

[DrLuke]

Please do me a favor and make the sweps appear in a different category, not in the first. It's just plain annoying, why won't you put it in the second or third?

[Valeour]

What? What category? There's millions of different categorys, Narrow it down or screenshot or summat.

[DarKSunrise]

I think that he means the first slot in the weapon selection.

Wow, thats creepy same speakers I use, except PCmod is Insignia.

[Valeour]

Ooooh, Yeah, i don't like it in the first weapon slot either, the toolgun slot is more suited i think, personally anyway.

Sweet! Going to upload it to my server now!

[DarKSunrise]

Sweet, direct keyboard input. But it turned out that I've totally fried my computer except for the harddrives, and I'm getting new one by tuesday, so it may take some time with the models.

[Valeour]

Epic, Well done you guys. If this mod has taught me anything, it is that i fail at modeling. And that i procrastinate, ALOT. x3.

[yuki]

2 things:
1. I got a subnet is a boolean value error when trying to connect routers to anything. (I just updated, this might be gone now)

2. Can anyone create something that adds Portal models to this? It has a great keyboard and PC.

[Woo482]

can you change the model for the paper that comes out of the printer ? if you need a model I can make one but I dont know how to make it work in Garrys mod

[Lancelot]

I agree with Yuki. The portal models are awesome.

[Ryo Ohki]

I've been looking around the thread but couldn't find anything. Does the save button of the notepad work on MP with the new patch? It didn't seem work on 2.0

amazing work, expecially with the keyboard

[thomasfn]

I can't seem to find the problem with the save button. It works fine on my server, even with 8+ other players.

Seemingly, no.

[Unit]

I cant get it to work, i downloaded the svn(which im assuming is 2.0.2) and placed it in addons folder called "PCMod2" it wont work with rp mod for me. i am running 2.3.5 :/


EDIT: It works 50%, It didnt add a job so no one can buy a pc there is no pc programmer of anything of that nature :/

[inf2]

Okay so I have PCMod2, properly installed on my DarkRP 2.3.5 server.

Everything works except 3 things:
- The notepad is unable to save anything (i press save and nothing happens)
- Printers always print out blank pages
- I've never been able to set up a router network no matter what I tried

[Rob2006]

I installed the PCmod2.0.2 and i made the info.txt file like someone wrote it here.
But i don't see the PCmod Button in Gmod.
What made i wrong?

[cyberpunk]

would it be possible to get the io to refresh automatically? and will there be another stargate dialing program for this? aVoN has just redone the system the gates dial with.

I've tried and in your server works fine, in others it doesn't. Could it be you forgot to put a file needed for servers into the release? I'm just picking a guess i don't know anything about lua

[BloodShed]

How does AlarmZ work?
