i remember getting this same looking dalek snpc and it was fucking shit, BEFORE it was fixed. And before it was fixed the daleks did not move, did not talk, looked like SHIT, and the only thing it could do was kill you.

it just now moves in place and shoots invisible lasers and causes errors

when the dalak kill me it cause an error before the game crashes

EXTERMINATE

Hahahaha

i just flaged myself

S

amazing

Yeah

Do they repeatedly scream exterminate?

This gives me memories, too bad Emrys_Himnda made better versions..

Cool, thanks guys, I'll have a look at this. Looks like an issue where its trying to set the relationship with a non existing npc.

[Doctor Who NP Dalek NPC [FIXED]] lua/entities/npc_drone/init.lua:139: attempt to call method 'AddEntityRelationship' (a nil value)
1. SetEnemy - lua/entities/npc_drone/init.lua:139
2. HaveEnemy - lua/entities/npc_drone/init.lua:100
3. unknown - lua/entities/npc_drone/init.lua:52

getting this error when spawning on sb_omen_2

Idk guys they work fine for me with a clean install, try checking the console for errors, clearing out any loose lua files or models for the mod.

I would recommend that you update this again to use the stuff what I fixed, but apparently GMod's IsAbleToSee() function's useFOV parameter no longer works so my modified Daleks immediately forget about the player as soon as they get out of view. I swear this did not use to happen the last time I tested them.

The NPCs still don't really work unless in Dupe for again, and for some reason they dont fire anymore

I don't see them but I hear them

no way lmfao

I just updated this an hour ago

so, any update plans?

nice thanks

Okay folks, you should be able to play with this again. Consider it a Christmas present.
Don't say I'm not good to you ;)

Should update this

God, coding in Lua is awful...

by "publishing", i also mean continuing to maintain it

but the issue with publishing it by myself is that i am not very experienced with modelling; it was a pain learning how to use blender so i could fix small issues in the model
i am also not too experienced in creating high-resolution textures, and i am willing to bet that kask has the template texture what was used to create the colored dalek variants' textures

well, i don't really know what to do from here; kask said to let him know if i have any luck, which implies that maybe he'd be adopting my changes into the addon, but i also kind of want to publish it myself too

when post?

hey dalekcraft

Okay, I have actually done it now, and I committed it to the repository so I won't lose it.

Good luck I really like this addon

So close, yet so far
If you have any luck let me know

welp, never mind, it's broken again

okay, guys, i've finally managed to fix the hovering bug; if i get Kask's permission, i will upload the addon

Hey, Kask, may I make public my GitHub repository for my attempt at fixing this?

Still trying to get these to work. I've made the code and AI much better, but the model still causes the NPC to hover for whatever reason.

Well we now got replacement mods for these guys.

no

fix it please

I believe in u
great mod

i was able to import the models into blender, and the "ragdoll" pose is apparently extremely screwed up, so maybe that has something to do with it; i don't know

i have coding experience am currently toying with the code to improve it but i can't do anything about the models right now; if you still know how to model, maybe you could try to fix the models somehow

Yeah, sadly I made this about 8 years ago and I don't have a clue what was changed in gmod that broke it. I haven't even touched lua since then either. If this is ever going to work again someone else is going to have to fix it.

yeah i'm going to just hope that kask sees this because i have zero experience with blender and thus can't fix the models

and now i just discovered that the source can be obtained with gmad.exe

So it turns out that, not only are the NPCs broken, but every ragdoll other than the Drone's does not have the gunstick attached to the body; the gunstick and body just act as two separate objects and are only connected visually.

or maybe you could use the knowledge that it's a collision issue to fix the issue so we don't need to use a dupe

Maybe someone else can fix it if the source code is released.
