REMOVING Error signs
Hi everyone. Following problem occured:

I have this minimalistic modern house dupe that apparently uses Fallout props, however the author removed the prop packs (Or Bethesda made him delete them, whichever).

Now the prop is littered with big red ERROR signs and I have no idea how to remove them. I'd try with the delete tool, but that would be like playing Jenga as everything is either close to or in another prop.

WHAT DO!? (Other than redo it, which... F*CK!)

EDIT:

As far as I know, your only option is to hold c and hover over the prop, then right click and remove. Holding c to remove could be better as you can see a ghost of the prop.

Tried, doesn't work. I wish these error signs would have some kind of default model attached to it so people can delete them.

What's worse though, is deleting the dupe leaves the error signs standing.

Wait, I might have an idea, the console does say which models are missing. Is it possible to delete them through the console? Or will that still leave the error signs around?

I believe if you type:
ent_remove
It will remove what ever you're looking at, You could try that however I am not sure how well that will work. if you know then name of the props I think you can type
ent_remove <name of prop>

Ok, tried the following:

Model missing: models/fallout 3/pear.mdl
ERROR!: Can't create physics object for models/fallout 3/pear.mdl

ent_remove pear.mdl
ent_remove models/fallout 3/pear.mdl
ent_remove "pear.mdl"
ent_remove pear
ent_remove

Neither removed the error that has been a pear prop. Am I typing this in wrong?

Writing ent_remove_all pear.mdl made it say "could not find pear.mdl". What if I give it a fake pear.mdl? Like a barrel prop with the same adress and mdl, maybe then I can remove the error signs!

you can just download for free the textures from Css, DoD and Hl2:alyx:

Klappstuhl Nov 1, 2013 @ 4:19am 
..what? Textures? I am confused now. I was talking about author-deleted props that leave only an Error sign. I'm trying to rid my dupe off those.

Klappstuhl Nov 1, 2013 @ 5:33am 
Ok, I used another prop and the Errors are gone, but the replacement model does not appear, so the dupe still spawns with the missing props.

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=191004841

This solves it for me personally, but I can't re-release this dupe. Everyone else will still get Error signs...

Ok, it's 2015, and this is STILL a problem!

FOR FOCKS SAKE GARRY, HOW DO I REMOVE THESE FOCKEN ERROR SIGNS!?

IS IT SO HARD TO CODE AN OPTION FOR REMOVAL OR A REMOVAL TOOL SO I CAN GET RID OF THESE!?

Do you have CS:S?

Yes of course, and most of the other Valve games that have props for Gmod. The props in question are all from the workshop, and have either disappeared or I don't have them anymore.

However, at this point I'd PREFER if GARRY would simply write an option, like an 'Error Sign Sweper' to REMOVE the Error signs.

All these require models from add-ons and since you can't get those add-ons back, you should just ask a person who actually knows how to program. I'm not that person.

My dupe went from this:

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=187625684

To this:

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=416036239

Looks great, doesn't it? :cfacepalm:

All I need is for the Error sign to f*ck off, and everything would be golden!

You know what, screw it, I'll email Garry directly. There have to be more people with the same level of problem over that damn Error sign. As useful as it is, there needs to be a removal option.

For example, if the sign itself was also a physical no-collide replacement prop, I could actually target it for manual removal. But like this? It's just... there. Pissing me off.

Yeah, wish me luck that I get through to him (Probably won't).

The guy's focusing way too much on Rust, good luck getting to that bastard.
