attempting to fire the more volitile (read, explosive) weapons at your feet and killing yourself accidentally with them causes some errors to pop up, not just with the regenning weapons either. the rifle with the big blast altfire is a prime example.

as to why i'm firing at my feet like some sort of moron, i was trying to rocket jump (there's an addon that adds them in). i always do this with SWEPs that cause big bangs~

FEEEEEEEEEEEX

@Rukrio :
This error is created due to the weapon attempts to retrieve data from the owner and the weapon. As you kill yourself, the weapon entity will despawn, but the projectiles / explosions / whatever won't.
I'll try to fix this.

@Norkan :
This is an error that will only appear in multiplayer. Entity authoring should be done on the server, not on the client.
Fix is on the way and will be included in the next update.

another bug is related to your hellfire smg (and guns that use it's firing SFX): it's sound effects are missing, so i bet this is an easy fix in the form of updating the addon to have it.

another bug is more of a compatibility error that i think might be more easily fixed by the maker of the hit numbers mod, and is that it fails to show damage values if you hit your foes with your entities. but i get the odd feeling it has to do with usage of point hurts on your end. i'll take it up to the other person in question still though.

EDIT: i might be an idiot: the hit numbers mod also has a function that also brodcasts all damage the server detects. gonna check that.

@Rukrio :
Thanks for the report. I'll take a look on the hellfire.
You are right about the hitnumbers. As the most of my weapons use the point_hurt entity to deal damage, the hitnumbers mod can't work on those weapons. Also, which is a thing I'm currently fixing, if the point_hurt kills a target, it doesn't count as a player's kill.

as it turns out all it takes is making the addon show all damage with a server side variable. but it's nice to know you're working on moving away fro point hurts.

The traces of the tracers bullets seems like texture missing. Is it a bug, not implemented yet, or i am missing some textures?

@Beiolos :
Please discribe the error. Do they show the ping/black error texture? Do you experience the error, no matter if single- or multiplayer?
The trace uses HL2 and custom textures only, therefor you should have them. In any case, I'll check the Trace for errors.

I have many lua errrors and particles not work completely.

Hds46 was killed by point_hurt

1. unknown - lua/weapons/sfw_pulsar.lua:122

Timer Failed! [charge][@lua/weapons/sfw_pulsar.lua (line 121)]

I have Counter-Strike Source,Half-Life 2,Half-Life 2 Deathmatch,Half-Life 2 Episode One,Half - Life 2 Episode Two,Team Fortress 2.
All mounted.

@Hds46 :
First: This addon should work, even without all the games you named mounted. Unfortunately it seems not to be working...

The first error missing "demo_paticle_light" seems not to be related to my addon... Correct me if I'm wrong.

The two lua error referring to "vgui" and "killicon" are engine / gmod created, as my addon's initialization script is runned multiple times.
Killicons and vgui panels (option windows and stuff) can't be created while the player is ingame. They have to be initialized during the map-load. As gmod initializes the addon multiple times, it adds the icons and then tries to add them again, but fails...
It should work anyway but as errors look nasty and somewhat unprofessional, I'll try to fix this.

The particle precache error as actually the same problem but other way around. As the init. script tries to precache them, then the source engine precaches particles, including the ones named in the error.

The error refering to smg1 might be created by a non-valid viewmodel applied to the sfw_custom.
Again, correct me if I'm wrong...

As you killed yourself while also trying to charge up the puslar rifle, the timer function, which does the math, tries to refer to the weapon entity and your ammo reserves, which stopped existing upon your death. This created the error.
I'll try to fix this in a further version.

About the "requesting $dudvmap" error:
To be honest, I've no idea why you get this. Do you run this game on DirectX 9 or higher?
Do you experience error textures (the pink and black ones) with my weapons?

I hope I could help you in any way.

getting a lot of errors like this with the shotgun:
Failed to load sound "npc/ministrider/flechette_explode1.wav", file probably missing from disk/repository

also the grinder rifle trail has no texture.

the weapons are creating errors in the console:

i have both half life episode 2 and css

@Fagottoni Mafioli :
I'll check the shotgun for errors. It's weird, as the shotgun seems to atempt to load a ep2 sound file...
What do you mean with "has no texture"? Do you get a pink/black error texture or an error in the console "missing texture" or "cannot be found on disk"?
The two lua errors you experienced are common and at this point, unavoidable... I'm sorry for that. I discribed the reasons, why they exist in one of the posts above.
As I said, I'll check both, the grinder and the storm, for errors.

I have DirectX 11.
Also bullets from some weapons have pink/black squares texture.
$dudvmap not working with some other addons.It breaks some effects and particles(maybe).
For example:Ultras rail gun not fully shows "warp of space" effect,also broken refract_ring effect.
Some particles which I've loaded in my Gmod,show weird white sparks,white glow or nothing.

@Hds46 :
I recommend redownloading the addon and also forcing the source engine to operate on DX9c by typing the convar mat_dxlevel 95 into console.
It seems to be a problem specific to you as I never got something like this during my tests on multiple different PCs.
