another idea for an event, player model

it is defined in the player group itself however, to avoid tedium of various sorts with existing configurations

also, you'll want to create a bone under the part, attach it to the head, and edit the scale of the bone (set it to 0)

and thanks caps, your fix worked

it works until you create a configuration

as long as you don't have an outfit loaded, external edits to color and material work fine

here's an idea: only set the color and material once, when the config is loaded

leave them alone after that

[NovaProspekt]

So i should spawn then part first, then the bone for the head, shrink the bone, then merge?

[noobcake]

yeah

[NovaProspekt]

Huh...still getting it headless. Should the model I'm not shrinking be linked to a different bone?

Or, would it be possible for you to tell me how you did it?

[CapsAdmin]

events:
removed primary_ammo_empty
removed secondary_ammo_empty

added primary_ammo_equals
added secondary_ammo_equals
added primary_ammo_above
added secondary_ammo_above

added in_vehicle
added model_equals
added model_find

-

i can't add health because health it isn't networked

[noobcake]

what about my suggestion for the color/material override

Edited:

how do model_find and model_equals work

model_find can partially match the model you want to match (like weapon class), equal needs to be completely accurate

This is confusing though and I will probably remove equal or find a better way. I was in a hurry and implemented this on my way out.

Edited:

added brightness
color is now 0-255
fixed color panel not updating properties
fixed color alpha and material for both gmod 12 and 13, but scale does still not work in gmod 13

this happens when you apply an old any configuration in the new update

I can't replicate this. According to code it should only happen to the player part. I've committed an attempted fix.

[noobcake]

as a test i saved a completely blank player part then loaded it, and i got that bug

going to test the fix now

Edited:

now, parts don't draw at all

bones do but not models

but the material bug is fixed

and the color/material override bug is still present

i'm having issues combining events

i'm trying to make it so if my velocity while on the ground exceeds 500 then show the part

the arguments for the velocity event are 500, and inverted, while the ground event appears to completely override the velocity event

[CapsAdmin]

fixed player part being overridden by other player parts
you should now be able to see existing outfits when you join
set owner updates on server

made it so events themselves can be triggered by events so you can chain them

-

Have on_ground on a part and create a velocity event parented to on_ground. Make both of them inverted.

hide weapon class is broken now

Edited:

idea for an event: has_weapon

[CapsAdmin]

fixed weapon class not hiding

[noobcake]

great

i also found a fix for my color override bug

instead of using a player part, i used a group part, and loaded my old configs onto it

worked like a charm

so you can stop losing sleep over that if you were to begin with, if not then carry on as you were

Edited:

that is, so long as i'm not wielding a weapon with attached parts

Edited:

when any kind of model is being drawn, it starts overriding colors and materials again

Edited:

events applied to a group part affect all models beneath it, but not bones

[lNloruzenchi]

are lights flickering on and off for anyone else?

[CapsAdmin]

fixed bones not hiding from events
fixed lights flickering

[Domino-effect]

Can you make a tutorial on how to install it? That would be really helpful.

[noobcake]

it would appear you've broken events entirely

[CapsAdmin]

I can't reproduce your issues. It's like you have some files that are outdated and some files that aren't. I didn't touch events in the last commit, and parts seem to be drawing fine with no material or color override issues.

[noobcake]

material/color override being on the player, as set by a custom lua script created by me, is what is being overridden

i'll try re-updating later, i don't know what happened

[CapsAdmin]

this will most likely break stuff that used weapon class and events before this update!

added command part (works on the localplayer only) / experimental
added sound part

moved weapon class to events
changed how events work
argument editor for events (very wip)
operators added for events

renamed and removed some events to suit the way it works now

events added:
has weapon
timer
sequence name
animation event

[noobcake]

what does the command part do

[CapsAdmin]

noobcake posted:

what does the command part do

Runs a command on the owner when the part is shown. It will only work for yourself. You can't execute commands on others with your outfit.

It was mostly intended for use with weapon class to control your weapon if needed. It's experimental, along with the sound part (which plays sound when the part is shown). I might remove them in the future.

[CapsAdmin]

nearly doubled FPS
if no parts are in the editor, it will create a group called "my outfit"
if no parts are selected when opening the editor, it will select the first part found
view is reset when the editor is opened

added shortcuts:
ctrl s to save current outfit (saves root part of whatever part with its name)
ctrl d to wear current outfit (wears root part of whatever part)

improved part highlighting
fixed part name not updating in tree on load
the editor will auto select last part created

removed player part
added entity part to replace player (works on non players too)
added icons for sound and command

I am really dumb...

Where's the download?

[CapsAdmin]

http://gmodcapsadmin.googlecode.com/...nk/addons/pac3

[Rainbowmaker]

all the features i've wanted for pac2 are in pac3,so i downloaded it,i knew how to use pac2,i mastered it but....
I have no clue how to use pac3

[death_blade_420]

i love how things are coming along with PAC 3, unfortunately i find it a bit complicated, even though i am a somewhat pro PAC2 user.

[CapsAdmin]

added aimpart (part behaves like eye angles on another part)
fixed effects

It should be very easy once you know how it works. And from what I've seen it doesn't take that long to find out.

When was the last time you tried it? Can you be more specific about how it's hard to use?

[death_blade_420]

well maybe i am just over thinking it, is there a defined hierarchy? i just find my self overwhelmed by the amount of options there are available and i am not sure of exactly what does what. also im not sure about how the events work either.

[noobcake]

events are pretty simple

you select parameters, select the operator (more often than not, it will be 'equals'), and define the arguments

so for example, weapon class event

your arguments would be "weapon_physcannon" and your operator would be "equals"

the speed event would have you wanting to use 'equals or above' for your operator and so on and so forth

[death_blade_420]

but grouping parts or the order or group in which they are in does not effect appearance? also, could you give me some examples like per say a custom reload animation? or maybe something with the crowbar's swing?
[Edit]
i think putting together a tutorial thread would be good if anyone has the time. if not i guess i could just work on my own.

[CapsAdmin]

fixed editor shortcuts being active outside the editor

-

I think a single image tutorial would be fine.

Grouping parts don't necessarily affect appearance but it affects behavior of the part when editing it. The order does not affect anything though.



because all the parts are added to the body part, when I move and rotate the body all the parts will follow. It's the same with the sub parts.

PAC2 has parenting as well. It's just a pain to use because the editor doesn't visualize it very well. In PAC3 parenting has an essential role. The best example is that more than one clip plane can be added to a model.

[CapsAdmin]

did a bunch of bug fixes

added owner name to group
added part selection for parent and aimpart
fixed aimpart not wearing properly

Owner names atm work only for entites you own, and when I say own I mean sourceengine own (like bolts and ar2 balls) I will try and implement prop protection support later.

It will try and find the entity when an entity spawns. Here I'm using the name bolt, which is a partial name of the entity I want to match. You can also add an event to the group to hide it when the owner is not the bolt.

[noobcake]

so does this mean i could effectively superimpose models onto my projectiles

after waiting for the video to load, it would appear that is the case

bravo

Yeah pretty much.

At the moment it will only skin the first entity found (one bolt at the time in the video) but I think I can work around this. However it would just be instancing of the outfit, meaning it would be identical on all entities of that class.

I also did some changes to "aim part" which makes it possible to aim at other parts that aren't even in your outfit.

example:

[noobcake]

oh man that's creepy

[death_blade_420]

now i can assault players with phallic objects
[edit]
what the guy below me said, also how does the weapon class system work in PAC3? i have tried it with both bones and just props, getting no results

[shipstreet]

how do i do that?
i tryied typing in "combineball" or "w_crossbow_bolt"
and setting the owner to those stuff seems pretty hard ><

[CapsAdmin]

both are wrong class names

try bolt or combine_ball (partial matches work)

I want to make this simpler, but I'm not sure how to make it simpler without losing functionality

Edited:

attempting to fix cloning issues
fixed not being able to move none relative angles in bones
fixed not being able to use eye angles and aimpart in bones
added parent name to group
added parent name to entity
fixed entity null errors
added in pac3 editor above head when in the editor
