TUTORIAL: Garry's Mod Holosphere

[dlcoates1]

I did everything in this tut to the T, and yet, NOTHING HAPPENES! Broken or what?

[android64]

wait hold on sec why cant somebody make a tutorial on how to change the color?

[android64]

hey what are the tool packs i need to get to make this?

[jakebobjo]

Yeah the holo emitter changed alot :/ u need to use vectors n weird stuff that i dont understand xD

[reapzilla]

when i tried this it just went all over the place and totaly out of controll

[Minecraftfan1012]

the holoemitters doesnt have the colour menu so for all of you that is asking about solution here it is: you need to make a vector constant value of (first), (second), (third) hope this helped :)

[andymboss]

@Minecraftfan1012 ok , after i make a vector 2d constant value , with three values in it , what am i suposed to wire it to ?

[dimitrisvk]

where can I get things to holosphere? emitters, tools etc.. please?

[alanvcd]

I tried but i got a circle, not a sphere. I will try again. PD: What song did u used? Always listen it but never know the name

[DaHackerz101]

Dude holo emitters dont have color menus anymore its so complicated! ;( if you find an easy way reply! :D

[theinsomniacvideos]

@DaHackerz101 hologrid

use hologrid and right click on the hologrid with the hologrid tool, and then right click on the holo emitter hope this helps :D

[dancoolbeans]

@DaHackerz101 you need to use constant value make one constant value say 0,255,0 and make it a 3d vector not number thats how you get color this color is green it goes R,G,B then you will need like a 5 number for size and fade time its hard to use now but once you get the hang of it its fun again :D let me know if this helps

[shein1423]

Yeah, now you need to use e2 for that and I dont really know how.

Vector and stuff.

[shein1423]

There is a new update and if you can make a video showing the most of the viewers will appreciate it Thanks.

[Knifa]

Is it like, entirely broken now?

[W0Wman1]

@Knifa pretty much

[GTR141Foxer]

@Knifa Yes!

[CmdZoidberg]

Continued: Then wire that value from the Constant Value chip to the Colour option in the Holo Emitter. Hope that helps!

[CmdZoidberg]

For those having trouble setting the colour, I think a recent update changed the way how you handle the colour of the HoloEmitter in WireMod. Use a Constant Value chip with the Type set to 3D Vector, then you can control the colour by writing the numbers in the following format: 255,255,255 | Those numbers must stay in the same value entry, otherwise it won't work. Each number between the commas is a colour level in Red, Yellow and Blue. So adjust between 0 and 255 accordingly.

[pwnt135]

What value was it when the Multiply chip went to the constant value chip? Just because I didn't get that makes the whole thing ruined...

[Joueur002]

I can't set a color for the hologram :(

[YoungFang6170]

failed like balls



[ThePortaladdict]

i get a ton of lua errors because i can't set a color for the hologram

[pazoolPIE]

@iburyyoass watch the vid in slo-motion :P

[iburyyoass]

Good tutorial but......please, SLOW THE FUCK DOWN! I watched this video like 25 times trying to get this damn thing to work, redoing the whole thing because I couldn't keep up with this. Not because I didn't understand, but because you talked too fast. I even paused for the putting in of every part and it was still a challenge.

[pwnt135]

@iburyyoass Exactly.

[TheSupersonic91]

@Knifa Hi...This tutorial was great...I finally figured it out... : )....but there was one draw back.... let me explain..for awhile my wire holo Emmiters when I would use my wire tool there were no X Y and Z but for some reason they just came back but now when I push the button it projects on the ground :'( I switched maps followed different tutorials and everything but nothing changed do you know whats going on? please reply. :'(also it projcts as a circle on the ground : (

[blaablaakas]

THANKS SO MUCH :D (tip: uncheck "show emitter - point beams" for a cooler sphere )

[Etniesboy21]

waht about new wiremod?

[stumblinbear]

I went through this vid like 15 times but my lazer thing makes a circle out of the edge of the map, I am in the middle, I give up so can you please send it to me over e-mail or something... trevin@stayyellow(dot)com

[tarpenman]

@stumblinbear Wire local to one?

[stumblinbear]

@tarpenman Local?

[tarpenman]

@stumblinbear Yes. Local is a wire input on the holo emitter.

[SonyFoLife]

you should put all the chips and stuff on the bottom side and just have the button and emitter on the top face

JUST a suggestion for if anyone wants to build this something by for some multiplayer amzement goodnes :D

[kfwilson]

i tried to do it i dont have holography but the holoemitter was in render. also when i try to wire it the options are Pos [VECTOR], Local, Color [VECTOR], FadeTime, LineBeam, GroundBeam, Size, Clear and Active. Does this mean my wire mod is out of date? PLEASE HELP! plus i can't choose color of holoemitter

[GameosityXD]

@kfwilson The same thing happens to me and I have the most recent version of wire mod. PLZ someone help

[mattocaster6]

@GameosityXD The latest version of Wiremod requires you to use Vector instead of basic X,Y,Z. Vector is basically putting 3 values into one output, To make this you need to link the x,y,z multiply chips to the xyz of the compose chip. You will find the compose chip in the vector subsection of gate list. You then link the vector of the holoemitter to the vector of the compose chip. You also need to wire the line beam and ground beam inputs to the button.

[kfwilson]

Did you use a tutorial or did u do it urself? either or whoever did this in the first place kicks butt. bty good on you for doing even if u did use a tutorial. this is tuff stuff u know wat i mean? anyway thanks 4 the awesome tutorial

[MADOXman303]

Thanks man! Holosphere works great and looks AWESOME. You are a Wire Mod LEGEND!

[Frederik121y]

my hologram is flat its not makíng a round planet if you can say that

[Monstakofa]

I need help, I don't want to open a user on a forum so here it is;

I saw someone that created a hologram above his head and it following him (he wrote in a black holoscreen a text like "P.W.n.d" etc), so I want asuggetion (you can give me avideo link, answere me here etc).

Well?

[packmange]

thank you i'm french and i'm understand this video

[gazila5]

COOL , THX !!!

[TheGrimm93]

my holoemitter says different things when im in signel player when im in multiplayer it has xyz but not in single player why is that?

[Osmann45]

Mine holo has only a few "points" and is not as smooth as yours, what did i do wrong?

[Rickbl1245]

If got a quest, How can I create another form hologram?



[monstergarage2]

I'm better with e2 :-P

[mahmudtariq]

cooooooooooooool

your awsome

[alexguayyy]

Thanks men, i make one, im a noob in wiremod but your tutorial is AWESOME

[fudgecskev2]

THANX MAN I UNDERSTOOD IT ALL WELL AND IS THERE ANY WAY YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFRENT SHAPE JUST LIKE NOT IN A VIDEO JUST ASKING

[Fr0gBitE]

thx man! u helped alot :D 

[Zhupir]

Norsk ? you said Såååå so im just wondering ;D

[Asdflvr]

4:00 wait what, I think I know what is in the background.. Its from some anime... errruuummm...shit. Fight Ipatsu Juden-Chan? IDK fuck I got side tracked in this video! GRR!!!

[zzRyAnThOrNzz]

7:10 it freeze for me >.> just the part i needed to know

[GrimReaperFreak1]

Nice tutorial video. it helped lots! I might set my sphere fade time to as high as it can go so i can see it FOEVER!!!! :3 xD

[sjtlol889]

the deathstar in the making

[birdbacon117]

Bumpin music in the background lolz

[FatternErGangster]

I'm trying to figure out why this acts like it does. And i wondered:

You used a Cos(Deg) to determine the height of the hologram, how does the Cos(deg) work? (I want to understand more of wiremod and i wanna know what things do so I can implement them in my own builds :p)

[Draknar95]

thanks it works

[HELI0PH0BE]

Fucking slow down. Couldnt folo without going back and pausing every 5 seconds

[KnightInShiningArmur]

@HELI0PH0BE He had to keep it under 10 minutes idiot.

[devldog1010]

I am sorry but You kinda have a accent or its your microphone but your voice comes out bad would it be too much to ask to remake this tutorial with text that moves slow like my brain if you can thanks if you can't thanks but please.

[TheDslide]

where do u know DAT ?

[ymen1234]

i dont understand this

[watcedudude]

@ymen1234 do you know what this is-

@name \\ Name of project

@inputs Button1 Button2 \\ inputs (like if i did this ,this would happen)

@outputs Hydraulic \\ when the inputes are moving/working on

if (Button1) {Hydraulic=250} \\ If i press button 1 the doors would open

if (Button2) {Hydraulic=0} \\ If i press button 2 the doors would close

[COMPUTERKRAFT]

@watcedudude E2

[TheRoflboy]

:( im new to svn and i messed up ant 6:00 min i was geting sooo happy

and then i failed :''(

[ghostyfireXz]

Dupe?

[frostedlambs]

were do i get the wire mod

[theHobojoe63]

@frostedlambs

Try in google Gmod SVN. If you dont know how to SVN then go to website.

[TheMooee]

Sexy video.

[mokvale]

Dude.. Ty for the tutorial :D Worked great and it got even funnier whith you talking with the speed of the lightning to the fast music in the background :P

Great vid, keep it up..

[HouseTutorial]

:D COOOL

[MrKonradman]

for some reason mine wont make a sphere shape. instead it makes just a flat circle

[HiTmAn0104]

Are you going to make any new tuts on any other of your creations?

[FelixJohanHagman]

how can you remember all of that?

[morten1993]

@FelixJohanHagman Just basic math.

[RasmusSk8XD]

@FelixJohanHagman u simpily just see a bit. go to gmod do it. see a bit more go to gmod and do it..

[knightben22]

@FelixJohanHagman easy write the youtube adress down and watch using div.x video player in the game thats what im doing =] have fun

[Xracain]

how do you get a grid on props?

[retardedstudios]

@Xracain Look for the Smartsnap addon.

[Miskarekola]

"Hmm, base, we need a base" *Greates a base* "good so far" <-- i dont know but i laughed my ass off!

[goertzey]

how do you change between a to h? Im new to wiring :(

[retardedstudios]

@goertzey Right click or scroll with the Wire Advanced tool.

[theslayter01]

if I download SVN my bro will freak out and probably beat me up cus he doesn't like me downloading stuff that he doesn't like..... ( the beat up part was fake but still )

[Abengoshis]

My holosphere keeps the dots even when I don't link it to a constant value, and they need to fade otherwise it lags, what have I done wrong!?

[theslayter01]

I wanna know how to get wiremod without SNV (or somthing like that)

[Abengoshis]

Why? If you get an SVN version you can keep updating it.

[andymboss]

@theslayter01 i think there's a lazy version on garrysmod org xD

[theslayter01]

@andymboss nvm I downloaded SVN secretly..... SHHHHHHHHHH

[andymboss]

@theslayter01 omfg if my bro was like that id smack his head of the door xD

[theslayter01]

@andymboss yeh.. he can beat me up in three seconds...

[Hudzan]

Don't you have like...better stuff to do on newyear? lol

[ThePooman101]

OMG SIMPLE HOLOSPHEAR! IT REQUIRES A PHX3 PLATE SIZE 1x1! ITS ON THE GMOD WEBSITE! JUST DOWNLOAD CREATE AND WATCH THE SHOW!

[fooznipple]

link?

[ThePooman101]

it sounds compcliated! but a good tutorial. be better if someone made a advance dupe. i think i might look for advance dupes!

[animalcrosser5]

Maybe not, but I think I've heard it before...

[smileyowner]

And right i was!

i just looked it up, and lucky it was still on my pc:

Fun Fun Fun dayo, Lucky Star.mp3 << thats the original song, this is a remix of it.

[animalcrosser5]

Now I hear it. I knew I'd herd it before.

[animalcrosser5]

Is that Animal Crossing Music in the background?

[smileyowner]

May sound silly.. but Lucky*Star comes to mind.. i heard all of its background music so often, i am ALMOST sertain its a remix of one of those background musics. If not its some other anime or mario game xD

[gr8ash123]

good job 5 star

[grymfogel1]

can i get the dupe-file for this one pls??

[Gutzya]

Thank you so mutch!

[Jalex125]

Could I get an ADV dupe file for this please...Mines a bit messy and I think I did some of the wiring wrong. Its all quite complicated :s but your tutorial is good.

[Yukutren]

Lol so easy to do

[klunkeflunken]

how can you remember all that crap in your head!?

[excalosp]

lol

i think he made it lots of times

it gets stuck in your head

[gamerdudefilms]

bravo my friend, i was able to do it, and for all you guys who are having troble, write down all the wiring he dose, and if you can't understand him, just keep playing back what he said, do this, and when you mess up, you can see what you did wrong

[Facethelight]

no offence but i couldnt understand you, could you send me a pm of the tut?

[massimobestpalylol]

I read the tools he used and made it w/o too much trouble.

[Gmodteam]

complicated :0

[notthebees]

Sorry, dear fellow. but the multiply segments of your video, were of utmost confusion in my .... computer.... and shit. so uhh, can you explain again? perhaps in another video or a private message? thanks a lot, Jeff.

[yamxa996]

sorry the noob question but i started gmod abt 3 days ago, i wanna know how to put that grid on items? looks really easier that way =P

[yamxa996]

AND how the fork u tun it on u.u

[jorisky80]

WTF? you begon to play gmod 3 days ago, and you already wanna make a Holosphere?!

[yamxa996]

i got it quite good, except for the last half part XD lol i made a spaceship... and i found out how to do that grid all on my own -_-' im quite fast with games at the first day i had made around 5 home-made cars, and just with noob materials.

[Vman446]

grid is smartsnap

[shortround789]

smart snap, download it

[tandis97]

its called a snaptool you can get it from garrysmod(dot)org put . instead of dot lol enyway its called snaptool

[alexmodfireball]

u get smartsnap

[LoadupGERProductions]

a homogram! :O

joke^^

nice.^^

[samthepoor]

so whats the formula? in terms of X, Y and Z

[gallopoko]

What are all the tools you used, im new to gmod, and dont have any addons and cr ap

[McDom023k]

he's using a mod called wire mod, it includes all the tools he uses and many others besides

[DampAliG]

Nut gate please

[christian1355]

Very nice. it fine for me.

RE: Worked great until i tried with the fade rate. Now instead of fading the dots wont fade D:.

i know whats wrong i did the same.

you only have to chance the fade rate in the holo emitter. not a constant value.

[supercyborge]

Worked great until i tried with the fade rate. Now instead of fading the dots wont fade D:

It lags me big time after a while.

[BeefJerky97]

i cannot under stand u what so ever! make text not talk next time

[MrMyzzox]

How can i do so the white wire one the prop u have when u add new stuff on the block

[Birdi123ye]

thanks m8 :D 5/5

but what exactly do i use it for? atm im using it for lighting lol it makes a nice chandelier in the dark room :P

can it be used for detection etc? :)

[CompactJordan]

you explained it good lol

[Toca91]

i can hardly hear ur voice, u should put annonations of what to wire and gate names ;) 5/5

[LsVcGmodTeam]

can you write a link to wire mod?

[tiver123]

its much more awsome without fade rate :D

[TheAldor]

Thank you for the tutorial :P I just have the problem with the fade stuff.. i did exactly as you said. make constat value 1:5 and wire faderate to constant value 1:5 but it still dosent work ;p

[mickey8643]

hook up the fade rate to a CV of 0 OR 10, that works perfectly for me :D

[darksile]

i understood you loud and clear, everything works perfect. i've been looking for a tutorial for this forever, thank you so much.

[redbloodyhands]

its k dude, just know this wire is simple its plan math, even me (i suck at math) can figure out what to do with a subtract or add gate

[HellFireWolf]

can you make a Tut for a wire radar?

[Shadowkiller198]

0:50 SHIT I CANT HEAR WHAT the **** your saying !!! WTF LOL!!!

[redbloodyhands]

he said logic nor gate, yes thats what its called

[JonGreene96]

*cont. from prev. post* with the Holosphere and make new objects, although that could also be accomplished from personal work with trial-and-error, but just knowing a few things about values and such would improve the quality of all projects greatly.

[JonGreene96]

Also, what is the music that you have playing in the background?

[JonGreene96]

Hey Knifa, I was wondering how you got the grid to appear over the objects that your crosshair was over? I asked one of my friends that's had Garry's Mod for a while and he doesn't have a clue of how to do that.

Also, great tutorial. If you slowed down a bit, it'd help a lot, but that's kind of personal preference, but it'd still be nice for a lot of other peoples too. What would REALLY help is if you knew how to explain why things were such ways so people could experiment *cont. on next post*

[Knifa]

The grid thing is SmartSnap. :3

[JonGreene96]

Quite a quick response! :O

[Yndostrui]

The faderate is not in seconds, if the lower it is, the slower the dots fade away ;D

You might not explained very well, but all I wanted to know was the sign anyways xD

[lankman69]

great tutorial! really helped thx knifa!

[darkstar32526]

also! my holosphere more spirals down than make a sphere!

[darkstar32526]

how come my e2 dont werk on singelplayer? i had a landmine thing set in miltiplayer then when i try in singleplayer it no work D: halp!

[thomasdfghj1]

your mad lol, you must have a brain with the size of a van

[Snipaaz]

add me on steam, then we go on my server and you teach me that lol

[TwistyPuzzle]

OYEAH it worked :D thanks!

[claw400]

cant u like change what it shows like map thats 2d with locator dots and stuff alike some kind of a radar for airship,aircrafts,boats,bases,­ect

[sithmonkeygecko]

I tried this once. I wrote out the stuff you. It didn't work well.

Then I re-found this last night, and made a picture of what you did.

That worked very well

[1mannlan]

How u can snap on wired chips?

[RadGH]

where'd you get the wire tool? it's different than the one that comes with wire. looks way useful, the current one SUCKS. always miss the input and have to cycle through all of the inputs again.

[Bausernameieimue]

its called advanced wire tool

[sithmonkeygecko]

RadGH, update your wire. Advance Wire Tool should show up around the Wire Tool

[Gl3nniT]

God damnit, we need subtitles xD

[godofnoa]

rofl, isnt that music from lucky star? and nice accent lol.

[absolutemisfortune]

mine doesnt go down, it consitantly goes in a circle, out, to a certain point, then back in, im pretty sure i followed it right, and if you wouldnt mind replying it would be great, id host my own multiplyer and send you my ip, maybe you could help me then thanks

good video btw, 5 stars

[nornor9401]

i just have a wierd question :O what accent do you have :O

[Knifa]

Scottish!

[nornor9401]

oh i love scottish :)

[Daneywaney]

if you set the trig functions to radians then you could eliminate the multiply gate.

[kobe316316]

yes i know that now but where can i get the wiring tool?

[Daneywaney]

google wiremod.

[valios11]

thanks for the tutorial.where are you from?

[Knifa]

Scotland~ :3
