This is a notice that some functionality this extension will likely be broken by wiremod/wire#2399 if you don't convert your ``e2function``s to return proper ``Vector`` and ``Angle`` userdata rather than tables of three numbers.

This is a copy pasted message, I cba to download the addon and check myself if it does contain use of these. Feel free to delete if this is non-applicable.

why is there no example chips or tutorials anywhere

Hey did anyone ever do an example E2?

can someone remake this E2? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yavq8dzPIiU

is there any e2 plugin that can? would be much appreciated

Not that I know of.

is there a way to call up existing particle systems from pcf files? that would be much more useful than creating new particle systems inside of the e2 for what i need

i found an older version of the addon and that one works fine, it was an old e2 based on the ParticleCore so likely during some update, it started f*cking up, although thank you for trying anyways my dude, i barely know how to make an E2 work myself, let stand with an extension that i havent touched in years, so i was just plain confused with what would be a good replacement for the particle() that no longer exists, but the older version i found still has that piece so it works now

It's been so long since I worked on this I honestly don't know what works, what doesn't, and what isn't included at all. If I remember rightly you can still use particleCreate() with all the other functions to set one up. I might look into particle() soon but chances are slim since I don't play GMod often anymore.

Question, all of the extention works except for particle(), it shows as "no such function", anyway to fix this?

WOAH XY u helped to make this lmao diddnt see that comming

ok cool thanks

Use PAC3's material browser, it separates sprites from regular materials

ok so i have it working but this command doesnt do anything: particlesList()

this is the e2 extention list (just checking the box enables it) https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/938333465957560917/2DC7668B97020126B477784002C5E94002BC0B2B/

its not there and not in console either im still trying to fix this lol

ok so i tried it again and its sad to say that either gmod is broken or wire is messed up and not adding it lol cause i did a fresh install and even reset gmod back to defult and nothing.

odd i tried that too and nothing but ill try again

I would try with no e2 extensions but this one and see if it works. That's all I can really reccomend since it works on my end and everybody else I've talked to says it works.

despite an new install of gmod thease are all my e2 extentions https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/954095759595018387/BD163B6AA3DCB2DBD0DDD52FD70F527F35CC3157/ i have tried with just particle core enabled and its not working do you know of ANY addons that would cause this not to work?

Try removing some and see if it works

thease are my e2 extentions https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/954095759586083496/D3477F46F758A2602A882054134C328779681BA8/ and i have maybe 150 addons (maybe less)

hmm ill look

I've just tested it and I have no problems on my end. Do you have a ridiculously high number of addons? It's been well-documented that can lead to a lot of issues. Other than that, I really have no idea.

basiclly upon making a lan server (and i belive Single player too) this extention will not even function. please fix this.

my issue good sir is when i use this on a LAN or singleplayer i cannot enable this extention. why?

I don't understand the problem you're trying to fix

please if you don't mind i have the e2 from the workshop subbed to and its not enabled. why and how do i fix? cause again despite it being subbed to its not showing up. and thats kinda bad cause i was gonna make an e2 for a car with this

I've already explained that it's materials based, if you want different particles, use a different material.

i never said it was your issue lol i just need to fifure how to enable this e2 function in a lan server XD and is there a way to add other particles to this?

Well, that's his problem, not mine. I can't do anything about that.

i mean he was lazy not me lol he just doesnt wanna add wire to the controller saying "no one would use that" and i was baffeled telling him many people would.

Xyvoracle i asked months ago "saying he was lazy or somthing i can't remember"

Indeed.
I'll let the author take over from here, I no longer have the mental capacity to keep this up.
Oh and thanks for this addon.

If you want wire inputs for particle controller, get in touch with the creator of it. It honestly isn't hard to implement that stuff.

Jerk? Trying to give you a heads up.
The Adv Particle tool relies on a button on the keyboard to activate, Wire numpad outputs can simulate keystrokes for tools, so it would work theoretically.

@Mariner ok one you seem to be a dick 2. wasnt talking about this was talking about the particle controller TOOL you cannot use the woremod addon with it as it doesnt allow inputs / outputs like that. so next time if you be a jerk take it and your crap elsewhere thanks pal

No wire outputs?
Ever heard of Wire numpad outputs?

God a brick wall is smarter.

ok and i would use that controller but the issue is it doesnt have wire inputs / outputs haha but thank you

Aww... I wanted to yell at Sanders.
First come, first served I guess.

First of all, one call of the particle() function generates one particle, use interval/tickrate to set how fast you want it to spawn. Second, particle controller uses actual Source particles, and this uses material particles, the two are not cross-compatible, and there's nothing I can do about that. If you want to use Source particles, just use advanced particle controller...

ok so im in a server that uses this is there any way you clould add a spawn rate funtion? and maybe even allow us to use particles from the adv particle controller?

how??
cause it doesnt show up in the stupid list and doing wire_expression2_enable (extention here) doesnt work

[LUMOS]SANDERS
You need to enable it in the console.

ok so on a lan server this doesnt work as in it will not show up in the e2 list why? and thats kinda sad cause i was gonna play in a lan but i canot when i cant use this nice function

ok so idk if im doing this wrong but Mat2=particlesList() where Mat2:array() is persisted and it does nothing why?

No such function: particleCreate(void) at line 70, char 1

oh ok
thank you

What do you mean by E2 list? Do you mean in your Expression 2 files folder, or in the extensions menu? It's supposed to be in the extensions menu. It's not a seperate E2 by itself.

i cant find it in my E2 list?
how do i add it?
