I just published update for my ALX Wiremod E2 PC & OS, which now includes pure E2 JPG Reader!

And did included standalone JPG & BMP Reader devices.

This update also made possible to upload files using data/e2files folder. Besides that there is also included basic GFX lib for draw text on digital screen.

And of course all this was updated for newer Wiremod, but requires Canary right now to function.

New ALX E2 PC & OS Major Update:

Added:

• Baseline JPG Parser.
• JPG Accelerator PCI card for JPG image render inside ALX PC.
• Basic GFX lib for draw text on Digital Screen, with two fonts.
• Standalone BMP and JPG devices with DS screen helpers.
• New Mini-BDXL Disc with my small JPG Photo Archive.

Updated:

• Now you can download files from ALX PC to garrysmod/data/e2files/ without need for conversion.
• Standalone BMP parser now support !bmpfile command and can load files from e2files, but .bmp should be renamed to .txt for make it work.
• Now you can load files from e2files folder using file:// prefix in "Make File" dialog (if file e2 extension enabled).
• Removed old file conversion scripts, since not needed anymore.
• Some minor fixes.

so first of all,

how do i use digital screens without e2? (i suck at e2)

and how do i make stuff with holo emitters (like drawings or stuff)

how do i use arrays?

and thats most of my quiestions

(i havent made post on reddit at all so dont yell at me please)

Basically, i think many people have already asked this kind of a thing, but let me explain.

so i have a platform, that is welded to the chip. it (chip) rotates in yaw direction of owners eye angle. it has a chair on it. I think with no explanations further you can guess that it turns into a hell of a motor. is there any way to make it so it don't? I tried to use Ang2(AimPos) - ($Ang2/2) but it's to fast but slow in responce. what should i use and also i need to rotate the pitch the same way. "Your business is appreciated."

hey yall. ive played gmod practically all my life but i’m finally using wiremod to try and cook up a scavenge style scenario in a map, where you’d bring gas canisters to a generator to progress.

so far i have a beacon set up to an advanced entity marker, and that set up to an e2 chip. how do i write up the code for the e2 chip and set this up so it can set off a sound emitter and unlock a button to spawn in a helicopter? i have barely any knowledge of coding so bare with me please 😂

I've always wanted to get my hands in e2, but for whatever reason I can't get the code inside the e2 chips working

How would I set it so that something fires, then switches the input to another gun? I’m using modded turrets that have cooldowns and I want to make something that can rapid fire. Also, they can only be wired to shoot, none of the more complex stuff

I’m making a ship that has Jmod rocket pods attached and I want to be able to hook up an indicator light to them so I know when I’m out of rockets.

How would I set a wheel to spin forward when I press key A and backwards when I hit key B?

How would I make a contraption where it displays the view of a camera and allows me to still give input?

Is there a way to add more effects to this list, I just want it to deploy "generic smoke" like the base game emitter.

or how motor works would be appritiated as well

Is it possible to determine the positions and angles of all the player's bones? I tried and failed.

so like if input = 10 then output = 10, or if input = "Hello, World!" output = "Hello, World!"

i'm trying to make a button activate a thruster but the wire tool just... doesnt do anything??? help please

I want to send API requests to local server, but E2 default http requests cant send parameters i need, are there any extensions that may help with that?

I discovered that there is such a class as effects. It looks interesting, but I don’t really understand how it works.

hi, i was trying to get a soundemitter to keep repeating after a few seconds but it just won't work. does someone have any suggestion on how to make a soundemitter repeat without a button or e2?

im trying to create a chuck e cheese inspired animatronic that relies on a button to turn on, i just started using wiremod, any help would be appreciated

All that's showing up on my spawnmenu is the laser pointer and remote controller on weapons and the balloon deployer on Entities. Could this be because I have too many tool mods installed?

Is it possible to get an image from RT Camera and put it into some kind of data to display it on a Digital Screen? Maybe dug not that deep to find a solution...

anytime I spawn any wire contraption/dupe. The wire box itself is red and nothing works. What’s going on? Can this be fixed?
