Tool creates limitless script errors
[ERROR] addons/ragdoll mover/lua/weapons/gmod_tool/stools/ragdollmover.lua:162: attempt to call global 'ValidEntity' (a nil value)

2. unknown - gamemodes/sandbox/entities/weapons/gmod_tool/cl_init.lua:58

While attempting to use this tool, this is what is spammed in my console. I am unable to use the tool at all. Could I have any assistance with this issue?

*EDIT*
Alright, since I'm seeing a lot of people having similar issues with this tool, I'll go ahead and post this comment from a good year ago.

Well, I'm just letting everyone here know that reinstalling Garry's Mod DID fix my problem. I am now able to use the tool, albeit sometimes the movement gizmo doesn't appear. Restarting the game seems to fix that, though. Thank you for your help, Winded.

You seem to be running an older version, as that issue has already been fixed. Try uninstalling the addon by going to garrysmod/addons folder and delete ragdoll_mover_***.gma file, then start gmod and it will redownload the addon.

That didn't do a thing for me. I've already unistalled/reinstalled the addon previously, through the Addons menu in Garry's Mod with no success. This may have been a different process, but the result is still the same. The tool is still unusable, and it still spams my console with these script errors. Hmm... I might be able to solve this issue by manually installing the most recent version of the addon, rather than downloading it through the Workshop. Unless you have any other suggestion for me, do you think you could provide me with an external link for this mod, if it's not too much trouble?

Also, thank you for looking into this.

Extract the package to garrysmod/addons. Removing the addon from the addons list might not always delete the .gma file from the addons folder, so that's why I was asking to try removing it manually.

Gah, that didn't work, either... Same result, same script errors, still unusable... Do you have any other suggestions? If not, I'm feeling like re-installing Garry's Mod, or at least my additional add-ons.

Check the addons folder and ensure there are no other versions of Ragdoll Mover there, and also ensure there isn't that 1.1 hotfix, cause that's old. If there aren't anything else, then re-installing gmod is the last method to try :/
Dazkid33 Nov 29, 2013 @ 11:05am 
I'm not necessarily sure what you mean by "that 1.1 hotfix." Do you mean for Ragdoll mover, or Garry's Mod? And where might I find it, if I have it?
Winded  [developer] Nov 29, 2013 @ 11:07am 
Well nvm if you haven't installed that then
Dazkid33 Nov 29, 2013 @ 11:10am 
So just go ahead and reinstall Garry's Mod, if you have nothing else to suggest?

I'm getting the same thing.

[Ragdoll Mover] lua/weapons/gmod_tool/stools/ragdollmover.lua:217: attempt to index a nil value
1. Think - lua/weapons/gmod_tool/stools/ragdollmover.lua:217
2. unknown - gamemodes/sandbox/entities/weapons/gmod_tool/shared.lua:194
Just make a patch for it :p

That's the thing, it's technically already been patched. This problem somehow resurfaced when it shouldn't have.

I'm considering getting this, but now I'm not so sure...

This just happened to me. Here's what I was doing; i had just loaded, walked up to a ragdoll, clicked with your toolgun, toggled it from move to pivot mode. when I clicked to rotate, my cursor stuck and the console went crazy. I like this tool, so I'm gonna try to delete and let workshop redownload as well.

This isnt helping D:
Maybe making a new Ragdoll Mover mod? Ragdoll Mover 2.0?
