EGP v3 - Total Remake

[field_medic]

Just as a side note the e2 controlled HUD elements are very much "for the win". On a side note I think that it would be helpful to list what files need to be disabled in the UWSVN to get the EGP3 to work correctly. It took me a couple of reloads in the console to chase out all the random elements.

Ok I'm unsure wether or not to keep egpBox and egpBoxAngle or to remove egpBoxAngle and make egpBox rotateable.

You just need to remove EGP v2.

EDIT:
New "Camera" object. Unfortunately, it only works on the HUD entity, and not on the screen.

It does have a bug: If you have motion blur enabled, it freaks out and the motion blur is ALWAYS on while there is one of these cameras in sight.
I'm unsure whether or not I should add it, and whether or not it's worth adding.

Why not the 3 corner method?

Can't you already put a screen on your hud using the camera stool? This camera feature isn't really necessary, especially when it has that bug.

egpBox should use the corner, for backwards compat., but you could make it rotate around that corner, and privide a method to change where the rotate point is

I would love to have the camera even if its only on the hud part.

SVN UPDATE!

• Renamed egpRotate to egpAngle while keeping the same arguments and use.
• Optimized the receive function.
• Added the ability to use the "Obj.OnRemove" and "Obj.OnCreate" functions (client side)

I've made my choice. I'm going to remove egpBoxAngle again and change the functionality of egpBox to work just like egpBoxAngle works at the moment. If you then want it to rotate or scale from the corner and not the center, use egpAngle(N,V,V,N) (formerly known as egpRotate).

Thats how he wasted his 1337 post...

Am I supposed to have a celebratory cigar, dance around the room, then post on wiremod.com how happy I am?

entities/gmod_wire_expression2/core/custom/EGP_Core.lua:172: attempt to call field 'IsValid' (a nil value)
sv: Expression 2 (generic): entities/gmod_wire_expression2/core/custom/EGP_Core.lua:172: attempt to call field 'IsValid' (a nil value)

it happens if i try an EGP function...

@name 
@inputs E:wirelink
@outputs 
@persist 
@trigger 

E:egpBox(1,vec2(0,0),vec2(100,100))

EDIT: found the bug..... its in conflict with UWSVN...
