@.kkrill ok, the problem i've had before is all fixed. seems the mod update solved it. thanks a bunch.

@.kkrill i dunno either. but when i unsubbed the issue seemed to fix itself. so it was definitely something. i'll probably try it out now and see if the problem has been solved.
just wondering, would this work as a vanilla dupe?

@Cyrus Stryker i found a slight issue with saving due to it not saving the color metatable, but i have no idea how it can possibly crash. the code is about as straightforward as you can get, no idea how its even possible for it to crash

as cool as this tool is, i've had problems with it when it comes to loading a save once loaded into a map. it just straight up crashes.

whenever you can get around to it mod author, please try and fix this.

@Virgiliu314 ok, if it is possible, could you tell me what is the name of those textures? I don't remember what they are called.

actually extended spawnmenu alone may suffice i think
Virgiliu314 18 Jul @ 11:55pm 
@Scanner Man you could use Advanced Material Tool and Extended Spawnmenu to add any material id to the overlay tool, its pretty powerful

cool
Scanner Man 18 Jul @ 9:35pm 
for the future, could you add the one that has paint/decals that look like blood, like in the last image that appears in the previous overlay addon, I don't know what the texture is called but it would be great if you could add it.
Oh no 18 Jul @ 9:01pm

@Mono-Si it's `entmeta:SetOverlay( mat, color )` (available on client and server). There's also a `PreDrawEntityOverlay` hook where you can add overlays with `entoverlay.Add( entity, mat, color )` similar to halos

Hi! What's the lua function & its parameters for assigning an overlay to an entity? I would like to use this in my NPCD setup as a way to visually represent shielded enemies.
