ET Pro 3.2.2 beta test release 3 + serverside-mod support

[bani]

etpro-lua-3 released, should fix vectors and et.G_SpawnGEntityFromSpawnVars()

[Rookie One]

Cool. Are the vectors treated as strings or as arrays?

[bani]

vectors are lua tables. eg { 100, 200, 300 }

Sorry to be a whinig ass, but using the same code I posted before I still can't spawn the damn dinghy. All I get is an x-y-z axes marker:

The collision detection works (grenades bounce off, I can stand on it), it's just the model not being rendered. I get no errors in console.

hey! that's the tripod thing i used to see on unpatched shrub servers (stfu lol) in place of dropped weapons and packs!

what causes that error?

sorry for topic jacking. answer me and you may continue

[Deus]

this is the placeholder that gets drawn when a model is missing which should be used to show something else there.

@rookie: if you get this thingthere then you maybe are missing the modelfile or used wrong path or something like that.

[Rookie One]

I use exactly the same code I posted before.

OMG! I just checked it and the model really is not there! How come it works with the map scripting spawning???

Sorry for a false positive, I trusted the map scripting tutorial.

Well, I guess I'll have to use some other model. It puzzles me, though.

[bani]

iirc dukeku extracted the dinghy model and put it in a pk3.

Just a question: what does et.gentity_get return for an ent == NULL?

[bani]

right now it returns a type error
it should probably return nil

[Rookie One]

et_ClientCommand seems to be broken as well:

Code: Select all

etpro_LuaClientCommand() error running lua script: [string "test.lua"]:508: attempt to index global `cmd' (a string value)

Code: Select all

function et_ClientCommand(clientNum, command)
	et.G_Print(type(command))
	return 0
end

At first I was just trying to print what's been intercepted, but I got this error and thought there was something wrong with the type. The type recognition function raises this error as well, though.

[Rookie One]

OK, after checking out the actual ET source I figured I should use et.trap_Argc & et.trap_Argv instead. Updated the Wiki with the info.

[=FF=im2good4u]

it does work just fine for me i tested it

i also used a printf but it say attemp to access global cmd !!!!! u have the parameter set to command so u somehow try ot enter a different variable

[bani]

lua-4 released, fixes win32 crashes, and sess.* are now r/w

[Rookie One]

And somehow ClientCommand as well, just tried it with the very same code and works perfectly.
