Bro if this worked with tile build shit would be peak

Thanks for making this, it help me make blocky headcrabs :D

MR. fish Feb 22 @ 5:12pm

use physics properties
comes with gmod

user that is finally happy. Feb 18 @ 6:28am

bummer, thanks dude :D

shadowscion [author] Feb 18 @ 5:28am

I'm not sure you can change that unfortunately. Custom physics are weird and I could never fix that problem.

guys how do i change the sound of my cube thingy, im trying to make a floor and i put a wooden texture on it so its a bit annoying when my material sounds like metal

Alex Jan 4 @ 9:47am

(I mean constrained to a normal prop instead of a primitive prop)

Alex Jan 4 @ 9:44am

Yes, they double each time you dupe, i tested up to 256 ropes. Also it doesn't do that if the primitive prop is constrained to a normal prop

shadowscion [author] Jan 4 @ 9:17am

What happen if dupe it again? Do they double again?

Alex Jan 4 @ 8:51am

If you constrain 2 primitive props together their constraints get "cloned" (e.g if you have 1 rope it becomes 2 ropes) upon duping. It does that with the normal duplicator but also with adv dupe 2. I tested with no other addons enabled.

jaxsonmilanoski Nov 3, 2024 @ 7:26pm

uhh... does this addon work Only with Props included?

Sanders Oct 20, 2024 @ 10:30pm

can you make the ladder climbable?

Coyote Is OP(will report bullies Oct 12, 2024 @ 11:45pm

shame, thanks for replying tho, i may or may not mess around with the github version and inform if i find anything useful in that regard

shadowscion [author] Oct 12, 2024 @ 4:20am

serverside they don't even go to 32 because it's so crash prone, so I'm afraid not, sorry

Coyote Is OP(will report bullies Oct 11, 2024 @ 2:16pm

Is there any chance of us getting an option to massively increase or downright remove the sanity checks from sphere and torus? (subdivide and segments)
Would be pretty awesome to have a non-sphere equivalent to makespherical wheels, but with the current fidelity limits theyre just too bumpy even at 32

TetsuGoji ||HM|| Sep 27, 2024 @ 5:41pm

I can make godzilla now :>

SHmeluga Aug 29, 2024 @ 6:54pm

Hi! Please add editable hq_hdome_thin and also add boat hulls editable like a wing

CobaltKnight27 Aug 8, 2024 @ 12:41pm

I did some low quality tests, but primitive's entities don't seem to be significantly more expensive when it comes to the physics operations.

̣ May 23, 2024 @ 7:53pm

can you make the size limit larger pls.

CobaltKnight27 Apr 2, 2024 @ 11:06am

This is a very impressive mod.

CobaltKnight27 Apr 2, 2024 @ 11:04am

Thank you.

shadowscion [author] Apr 2, 2024 @ 10:40am

I don't think the data can be lost without some sort of bug so if that happens let me know.

I don't know if it supports gmod save system. Duplicator tools work fine though and you should be able to send those to your friend.

There might be some slight overhead with the entity system, I have never really tested that.

CobaltKnight27 Apr 2, 2024 @ 4:49am

Also amazing mod, with enough features this could replace most building prop mods

CobaltKnight27 Apr 2, 2024 @ 4:43am

Do I need to worry about the data that morphs the shapes being lost?

Specifically, if I were to make a save, and then send it to another person with the same addons, could they open the save without losing any data from primitive prop shape?

And do these shapes cause/use any more processing power than regular props? (Outside of loading)

shadowscion [author] Mar 6, 2024 @ 5:06am

Tbh I have no idea I have never used them lmao.

NightReaper Mar 5, 2024 @ 8:20am

How liberally can you use these? I imagine using them as much as you'd use normal props is probably overdoing it, so I'm guessing something akin to how much you'd use holograms maybe?

shadowscion [author] Mar 2, 2024 @ 2:03pm

And that's why addons that replace default gmod assets or code are a bad idea.

daniel_wiseman Mar 1, 2024 @ 5:48pm

Primitive is good n all but if you use Primitive and Overhauled Building Props by Prince the Texture on any Primitive prop becomes weird

shadowscion [author] Dec 9, 2023 @ 6:38am

It is supposed to fix the error messages that had to do with wiremod compatibility

8eHg Dec 9, 2023 @ 6:29am

What did this new update add/change?

Jackass Dec 5, 2023 @ 10:51am

so maybe add an option for servers to have experimental features like extra segments

Jackass Dec 5, 2023 @ 10:51am

I meant if the tube object is really big, say around 400 size, the edges look very choppy

shadowscion [author] Dec 5, 2023 @ 10:23am

I don't think that's a good idea. Particularly on rounded objects the vertex counts increase quickly and you can easily crash the game.

Jackass Dec 5, 2023 @ 9:33am

do you think you could increase the max segments limit from 32 to at least 64?

[Sk$Bh]Trick or treat KID! Nov 5, 2023 @ 1:47am

[wiremod_git] Warning: Use of variadic parameter with ExtPP is not recommended and deprecated. Instead use ...<name> (which passes a table) or the `args` variable (at line 80) @entities/gmod_wire_expression2/core/custom/primitive.lua

Sanders Sep 21, 2023 @ 8:29pm

well thats odd but ok.

shadowscion [author] Sep 21, 2023 @ 2:40pm

that's just how the scaling works

afaik source doesn't like objects inside of other objects so if i did what you asked some sides would have to be differently sized than the others... that gets weird when you start toggling sides

Sanders Sep 21, 2023 @ 1:01pm

for the magic_cube can you add an option to remove the caved inward edges?

aversion Aug 31, 2023 @ 2:45pm

oh my god you did the thing I was wanting to do AGAIN

*clapping* good on you my man this is some hot mad greatness

arnejohnny.forsberg Jul 19, 2023 @ 12:14pm

how does it work

abovereal Jul 11, 2023 @ 6:00pm

Could you possibly make this work with the Waterizer Stool 1.1.I don't know if that's possible or not but I thought I'd ask. Thanks.

ApertureGamingRobot Jun 30, 2023 @ 1:49am

very nice addon, though i wish i could make the props larger than 1000 units

Noiloi Apr 27, 2023 @ 10:08am

i found it

Nutcracker Apr 4, 2023 @ 7:37am

Good

ULTOR Mar 16, 2023 @ 1:01am

what to do if hovering over a prop doesn't show primitive in the context menu

Mesozoic Mar 11, 2023 @ 7:34pm

or hammer units?

shadowscion [author] Feb 18, 2023 @ 8:05am

uhh

'source units'

agentgollem Feb 18, 2023 @ 5:53am

hey, was just wondering what's the unit for the size for an object, I was resizing an object and I saw that inches weren't the unit so I wonder what's the unit used by the tool ?

Erik Panzer Jan 8, 2023 @ 6:00am

Um, after duplicating with advanced duplicator 2, the props lose its no-colide constrainsts. Welds remain

Cthulhu903 Nov 25, 2022 @ 5:16pm

Sus among us
Plus i love this addon
