[hlcoders] Changing the VGUI panel shape
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hello everyone, How can one modify the shape of a panel? It seems we're limited to a 4 points panel. Is there anyway to apply a mask or a different shape to a panel? I looked back in the list archives and someone suggested to code a new shader to perform this function (masking). That doesn't seem like the best option to me for something on the GUI, as someone may not have shader functionality on their video card etc. Any other ideas? Any help appreciated.

Re: [hlcoders] Changing the VGUI panel shape
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Right, I realize I can draw anything I want in the panel in any shape I want. But what I am drawing is bigger than the visible panel area (depending on how big the user decides to have his panel on the screen). So the panel is basically acting as a mask for what I'm doing, which is why I asked if it was possible the change the panel shape..

Re: [hlcoders] Changing the VGUI panel shape
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Thanks for trying to help Alfred. Could you point me on an example in the sdk where something like this is done? I've tried multiple searches with SetBorder and other various functions of the panels without any luck, and I can't seem to figure it out. All I could get is an outline just like the ones on buttons. :o I've looked at the resource files for the beta gui, and I see that you have some tga's for the borders etc. something like this could potentially work for me. When are we going to be able to use this method in our mods? Then again, I still think the best would be to be able to provide a mask for our panel. :P I may actually end up making a pixel shader for this, shouldn't be more than 4 lines of code... I just thought it wasn't the best way to do it. Thanks!

Re: [hlcoders] Max amount of Teams on a MP Team game?
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] There is no limit on the amount of teams, your code will define that limit. The RandomInt is a function that takes a range. So, if you'd put RandomInt(0, 4) it would return a number between 0 and 4.

Try using the XRES() and YRES() functions, and base your code off that, this
way you will get correct placement for any resolution, even if it is changed

[hlcoders] Rotation of an entity
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hi, I'm still learning through the SDK and I have this simple issue blocking me into progress.. I'm simply trying to rotate the angles of an entity in relation to its position. Changing its angles.y alone for example is not what I need. If the entity is facing down, i need to change the angles based on its current angles. If it was facing down, i'd probably need to change x, but if it was in between, some of y and some of x would need to be changed, etc.. So I'm thinking a function similar (if not) AngleVectors must be used, but I'm unsure how.. Please help if you can Thanks -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
Re: [hlcoders] Rotation of an entity
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] No, I know I'm not making much sense, I can't really explain this properly.. Let's say I have a spray can, and i wanted it to rotate on its own. When it's on a table, it would rotate with the y angles only. But if it fell on the floor, it would now be facing the floor, and the x angles would need to be changed to keep the same rotation going. What I am looking for, is how to find the angles that I need to add to the current angles so that it will rotate in that direction properly, whichever position it is facing. Does that make more sense?

Re: [hlcoders] Rotation of an entity
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I am totally with you. I am also lost on this one hehe.. I recently figured out how to do tracelines properly so that should say a lot ;) I'll take a different approach to my problem, maybe other people can understand :o The physics will not work for my problem, as I'm not really changing the physical angles of the entity, but it's eye angles. So for example, I would like to rotate a player's view to the left, without moving their model at all. If the player is facing straight ahead, this is farily easy. But if the player is looking up/down, then I have no idea what to do, as the angles are relative to the world.. There must be some transpose functions or something I'm missing.. Any help would be greatly appreciated ;) Thanks again. On 7/27/06, Garry Newman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Yeah I know what you mean I think..

[hlcoders] SDK Issues
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] First, my ai_activity.cpp seemed to be missing the portal's activities, so it caused a bunch of asserts. This being fixed.. I am unable to load my mod from the steam menu. When I open it from the steam menu, I am seeing the game menu, and then a "ding" and it vanishes. No error, just vanishes. If I load it from command line, it will load and work fine. Since it's not giving me any kind of hint as to what the issue is... I got no clues. One thing I did notice, is if I launch from the steam menu, it will say it's loading my mod. From the batch file it will say loading SDK base. GameInfo.txt has been updated to SteamAppId 215. and from the command line I also issue -applaunch 215. Any hints?

Re: [hlcoders] Re: SDK Issues
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Yeah, the run_mod.bat does work for debuging, that was my issue.. It works from the batch file, but not from steam menu when using debug binaries, while it used to work before this SDK release.

Re: [hlcoders] Launching Mod from Steam doesn't work

Re: [hlcoders] Source SDK Update Is Released - the patch file
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Speaking of sever problems, I noticed func_rotating_door seems to be broken in the new SDK code. I haven't done *much* testing, but on a map that worked perfectly fine with the other sdk, in the new SDK when you touch the door, you get either stuck on it, or it will spin forever going through walls.

Re: [hlcoders] gravity gun sprites with the SDK update

[hlcoders] VGUI togglebuttons / checkboxes missing in new SDK?
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Am I missing something, or those functionalities have been removed in the new SDK? When creating a vgui panel those options are not available anymore. am I the only one who used those? :o I haven't had time to verify the vgui code much, so excuse me if this is something simple, but it seems they are missing. -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders

Re: [hlcoders] func_breakable_surf func_door_rotating
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I think the problem you are refering to is the same I posted about earlier on this list. This is a maping problem and not a code problem. Your map is using a feature that had been left for compatibility, but has been removed in the last SDK release. At least this is what the person maping for the mod I'm working on told me, I can't get in touch with him right now, but he said something along the lines that compiling his map as an hl2mp map gave him some errors and told him exactly what wasn't available anymore... Hope this helps. I'll try to get the exact details from him.

Re: [hlcoders] FileSystem_Steam.dll Crash
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] If this is the same issue as was discussed before on the list, the new SDK won't allow you to run a debug build from the steam menu.
