Eagles Camping Tent "Variant 2"

Description
This is one of 3 Dupes I created for a Camping Tent, this is Zipped with Screen open. Ever search "Tent" On the work shop? Nothing but A frame makeshift dupes pops up or walk in long tents but no Ozark Trail style one man Tents.
Variant one has no door and is enterable these other two may be used with fading doors.

Variant 1: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1629669612
Variant 3: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1629738648
FADING DOORS TOOL WORKS FOR 2 and 3. Just shoot the Screen area and the prop underneath it.
FADING DOORS IS NOT REQUIRED IF YOU DONT WANT FADING DOORS.

REASON FOR IT.
I built a Mountain and I wanted one to use for Base Camp. This was my solution. It worked so well I decided to share it. Now its not perfect but it you can enter it and it looks close enough for me to what I wanted. You can also see out of it and stay out of the rain! This Dupe and the other two put together you can create small encampments for Survival RP purposes, camping with Friends on Gmod, or Search and Rescue Game Play.


REQUIREMENTS.
This uses Sprops, Its Smart Welded and the entrance piece I did use Prop resizerr ="Collision Resizer (Enhanced)" on so youll need that tool It would not let me in it without resizing the entrace piece. This is the enterable one, with the door unzipped all the way, the other two Im uploading soon. The other two are variants that may be able to be used with Fading Doors I havent tested it yet but Im hoping it will because that would be awesome.

The other two Variants are Zipped up with Screen open to see out door. The last variant is fully zipped no screen door.
You can see out the roof screens on all of them. It sorta has a rain cap but not exactly I may design one with a full one rain cap with no ability to see out for Winter maps. Kinda like my base camp on my mountain I built.

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO SPICEN THINGS UP. PERSONALIZE IT!
The base Dupe color is supposed to be a neon sort of color to resemble Ozark Trail sort of style camping tents
HOWEVER... This is where I got really fun! YOU CAN PAINT THEM WITH VARIOUS MATERIALS AND COLORS.
Really opening up a world of awesomeness for the Player and or Servers. You can personalize your tent with awesome camos even! I included a few screen shots. I wasnt super impressed with the tent because of limitations of the props but when I started playing with the Materials and colors I thought wow I gotta share people may like it.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MORE MATERIALS MOD.

KNOWN ISSUES.
Obviously because of the limitations of the props, I had to fill in spots you could see through so there is some visible clipping, its not perfect but it is nice to have. The Default color I painted it is bland so PERSONALIZE YOURS!!

I must mention that there are a few times I had issues entering the tent in various locations on Gm_Construct. They work on construct just fine but there are some areas of terrain that can make the tent not want to let you in it.

You can do two things. One move the tent with your physgun around a bit reposition it move it a few feet away from where you are having trouble. Two you can sometimes fix the issue by simply deleting the dupe and trying to spawn the dupe again sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt if it doesnt the locations ground may not be jiving right with the tent.

The Propcount on the Door open tent is 26 props so spawning more than 2 or 3 may cause you lag on an older system or highly detailed map. The Tents with the Doors have 29 props.

MY MOUNTAIN
Will I release my mountain? That is going to be something I want to do but although the mountain looks great when you're on it... It honestly looks like crap from far away. Its also built on a pretty decorated map I did so... The likely hood of me being able to dupe it Im not sure of. Save game?? Maybe in fact I was going to release it as a mountain climber save and had a video I recorded of me climbing it showing you how I meant for it to be climbed but the Audio and video desynced and life happened so I went away from Gmod for a while. I dont want to hand out Garbage.
This tent isnt my best work but its my best shot at making one. The Mountain I am going to experiement with foilage on and try to spruce it up but no promises. I dont like how it looks... But Ive had fun climbing it and I jumping off with a parachute its nearly to the top of the skybox and Helicopters are very hard to get up there with. Anyway maybe.

Sorted and I literally have no clue as to how that got set to friends only view. But it was as simple as changing its visibility. Thanks for the heads up on that @extremely jorts

@extremely jorts I have no idea what happened but it suddenly is saying this is visible to friends only. It probably desynced I need to update my Gmod at somepoint and Ill fix it. If you need it just check back in a bout a week if I fix it before then Ill give you a shout. Thank you Ill have to look and make sure this is the only item it did this to.
