Thank you !

Should be fixed

Its in the description

map name please im begging

It's technically possible but I'd rather not. It's setup this way for optimization reasons, and the increased resource usage isn't really worth it for such a small feature.

Its weird how the dust particles stop playing once a player bails out of the vehicle while its still moving. Could it be possible to fix this by making the dust particles play only when wheels are rotating and not when a player is in a vehicle? Good progress on the addon though.

G-Auto, but "G" is for Goon .
"GoonAuto?"

well there's nothing in this addon that would warrant that so it would be a false claim

in before Luna DMCAs this

nothin beats LVS lel

simfphys cars already have a system like this
so prob not

does it work for simphys cars too?

bro

Thank you.

Question

Whats the name of the map in the thumbnail?

I just tested it on an empty server and it seems to work fine, make sure you don't have anything that might be overriding the PlayerUse hook

even without darkrp or anything else just the addon its self it gets softlocked the car is useless after its locked from the inside noone is able to get in or is able to unlock the car

no if i Lock the car from the inside and get out darkrp keys wont even unlock the damn thing its soft locked

does it happen all the time or only after using the keys?

its okay i fixed it myself but the vehicle lock feature is cooked if you lock the car from the inside and then leave the car its forever locked

using the darkrp keys to lock/unlock vehicles is not currently a feature, but I'll consider adding it

darkrp Keys wont work on the vehicles is there a known fix?

okay thanks for the response

sligwolf's vehicles are not compatible, though that might change at some point

is it compatible with sligwolf ?

Ive been pocking around in the source code and trying to see how the wheel dust effect works and I think I know why it doesnt work correctly on some maps. you could try replace the util.GetSurfacePropName( id ) to GetSurfaceMaterial() so it gets the correct materials from maps that cointain them or merge util.GetSurfacePropName( id ) and GetSurfaceMaterial() together and change some things here and there to avoid errors. Oddly even with this line of code indicating where the dust needs to appear it doesnt work correctly: local allowedSurfaces = {
["grass"] = true,
["dirt"] = true,
["sand"] = true,
["snow"] = true,
["antlionsand"] = true

Im not an expert lua coder but there is something funky going on with util.GetSurfacePropName.

I might eventually

can you make a trailer attachment system?

ok

I don't make vehicles

can you make a BMW E21

so cool man thx for this great addon

i was saying because it seemed to work with it for few before completely breaking

I've never used it so I can't say for sure but if its a vehicle system with similar features then probably not

Speaking of Svmod is this compatible with it

Another vehicle system called SVMod has a line of coding that adds sparks effects to all wheels when wheels are damaged. Perhaps it has useful codes that might help getting accurate wheel size? Ill leave a link here if you want to take a look at it. https://github.com/TomLaVachette/svmod/tree/master/lua/svmod/health

Yea I tried back in October. From what I remember, Simfphys uses a trace that depends on an accurate wheel size, which isn't easy to get with Source vehicles.

Have you tried making the particle detect the ground material same as Simfphys does? It applies the same but make it detect the prop_vehicle_jeep wheels instead of the entity wheel that Simfphys has. For the other features that I suggested it aint no big deal if you dont feel like doing it. Take your time.

Regarding your first point, I never found a better way of detecting the ground material for each wheel, so for now it cannot be fixed. As for your other suggestions, I'll definitely consider adding them but since they're purely cosmetic they're a low priority. This addon is open source though so if you or anyone else wants to do it before I get around to it, I'll be happy to accept it.

Hey, I would like to add a improvement list for the particles in this addon. This is one of the best multiplayer/RP friendly vehicle system addon out there.

1. Fix the wheel dust particle not working on some maps. (This was tested in Valve maps from HL2 and CS Source, as well some workshop maps)
2. Add a new particle called WheelSplash/WheelSplashForward from vehicle.pcf file. This particle is used in HL2 EP2 which causes the wheel make a realistic effect when driving on the water. LVS has this feature.
3. Add gravel/grass/water wheel sounds when the dust/water particle effect is deployed. Simfphys/LVS also has this feature.

Thats pretty much what I want so far in this addon. Make the vehicles have this simple additions in it and it will be golden.

yea, just shoot them, they wont pop instantly since they have health but you can adjust their health with the GAuto_Config_TireHealth convar

is there a way to make tires pop if shot

Nice.

The x86-64 branch should no longer be required as of the latest Gmod update.

should be fixed

Since the new update (im using the Github version) it broke the passenger seat spawn code. It says that "[GAuto]: Selected seat doesn't exist." but im using a vehicle from the compatibility list. Im using TDM Dodge vehicles and SGM Ford Taurus.

YES

It appears to be an issue with using Vehicle:GetWheelContactPoint() on certain surfaces. I tried using the Simfphys method of using util.TraceHull but it requires an accurate measurement of the size of each wheel, and there doesn't seem to be a good way to do that without making the trace too big. I'll keep looking for a better solution.
