[Deprecated] Five Nights At Garry's [Wire/AdvDupe2]

Bug Reporting/Known Issues
Please report bugs here. If possible, report any Lua/E2 errors that coincide.

Known issues:
The game:
  • E2 errors about missing welds; missing doors; etc:
      Install/mount Half-Life 2: Episode 2 or use the "noep2" version.
  • E2 errors about gravity, props, etc.
      You need to enable the propcore extension and wiring extensions, which are found in the Utilities tab under "E2 extensions".
  • Skybox being invisible is an unfortunate side-effect of Environment Editor, and can be fixed by running r_3dsky 1 in the console.
  • Jumpscares look wrong/stuck/broken.
      This is unfortunately something that I haven't been able to fix in an easy, efficient way. The best I can tell you to do is to use !tryfixjs on the suspect character, possibly multiple times, but even that is a temporary fix at best.
The loader:
  • Files created by the loader aren't removed when removing the mod. This is an unfortunate necessity of how AdvDupe2 and the Workshop works. I could, alternatively, create symbolic links to the game files in a very cool way, but this is outside of my skill level.

I can see and paste the dupe now, but after everything is fully loaded, this message is shown four times on my screen and printed into the console:

sv: Dupe pasted with code authored by Denneisk (STEAM_0:0:48310573). Please review the contents of the E2 before removing this directive at line 1, char 1

Also, this is printed into the chat & console (though it seems you already know about this issue)
DUPLICATOR: ERROR, Weld Constraint could not find an entity! (x10)


After all of that, nothing works except for the light for the right hallway (for some reason...)

Yes this is an awkward caveat of current Wiremod. I am working on a workaround but for now you would have to use the latest commit of Wiremod on the Github which removes this feature.

As for the duplicator error, I'm looking into it and I think I know the cause, which if true will make things a little difficult.
I'm glad to see the map has actually, at least, loaded for you!

I'm having the problem with the cameras, so (idk if this is only a first night thing) but when i turn on the cameras first time i can't go to other cameras or anything, when i turn cameras off and on again the buttons just don't appear at all
Szpieg2000 6 Nov, 2022 @ 10:39am 
oh and the camera that's turned on doesn't show anything overall

you need to turn cameras on in the e2 thing, even then the camera map breaks after you start the night

On Night 3 an E2 error occurred and Kleiner was frozen at camera 07.[imgur.com]

Expression 2 (Kleiner): Runtime error 'Invalid entity!' at line 76, char 24

Neither of the reset chat commands seem to fix this issue.
After attempting to go through the night again, the same error occurs, and Kleiner freezes up.
It seems to only happen after Kleiner moves to camera 07.

Thank you for catching this. It should be fixed now. For some reason, certain things weren't saved in the dupe and this was one of them.

Kleiner is visible at camera 08 and not seen at camera 01. Kleiner can still move and appear in other spots, though.

This probably happened when you saved the dupe, so Kleiner can still be seen in his original position when you saved.

Sorry about that. This will be fixed in the next update, but for a temporary fix you can run the chat commands "!setpos k 4" and "!setpos k 0" which should reset him to camera 1. After that, you shouldn't be able to see that again.

Did you get any errors?

While having a shot at 4/20, I tried to switch cameras while the camera was going all "static-y", and the camera monitor becomes unusable and prints out an error:

Expression 2 (CamTab): Runtime error 'Invalid sound: 1' at line 171, char 9

This is my fault for not hardening that. It should be fixed now, thanks for reporting.
