  • Wire plug/socket limits at least 20 (minimum pc configuration in multiplayer)

Recommended e2 settings

  • wire_expression2_unlimited 1
  • sbox_maxwire_plugs 50 or more in multiplayer
  • sbox_maxwire_sockets 50 or more in multiplayer

Or even better:

  • wire_expression2_quotatick 300000
  • wire_expression2_quotasoft 300000

For work faster (warning: it can make lags for your!).

Installation

  1. Download repo as zip https://github.com/AlexALX/wiremod_e2_os/archive/master.zip
  2. Extract files somewhere.
  3. Copy folder "alx_pc" from advdupe2 folder to "Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\data\advdupe2".
  4. Start the game.
  5. Make sure that you have wiremod and advdupe2 addons installed.

Assembling PC

There is two variants of assembling pc:

  • assemble full pc, this variant is working only if you playing singleplayer or in multiplayer with socket/plug limits 50 or more
  • assemble minimum working pc configuration, this variant must be chosen if you are playing multiplayer and have 20 plug/socket limit.

Recommend to watch this video: https://youtu.be/jfFnVnX7Kwg (first 5-10 minutes)

So here is steps:

  1. Get advanced duplicator 2 tools in hand.
  2. Open "alx_pc" folder inside "-Advanced Duplicator 2-" folder.
  3. Open "parts" folder.
  4. Now if you are assembling full PC:
  • Open "case" and spawn it somewhere.
  • Open "motherboard" and spawn it.
  • Grab motherboard with physgun and unfreeze it by pressing "R".
  • Move it into case around 3 sockets, they should connect.
  • Freeze motherboard and correct position if needed.
  1. If you are assembling minimum PC configuration:
  • Open "motherboard" and spawn it.
  • Go to back side of motherboard.
  • Remove 3 plugs on back side, because in other case you will hit plugs limit.
  1. Open "cpu" file and place it near PC.
  2. Grab it by pointing to board part (not props or e2 chip!) using physgun and unfreeze (press R).
  3. Move it to top of motherboard and when you will see yellow line press right mouse click and release left & right mouse keys.
  4. CPU should move to socket and stay frozen without moving or hang down if everything is correct.
  5. Now open "gpu" file and place it near PC.
  6. Grab it and unfreeze.
  7. Move it into first black socket at left-middle part of board.
  8. Again freeze it and release mouse keys when you will see yellow line.
  9. [ next steps comming soon ]
  10. You are ready to startup your PC.

With advdupe2 - minimum configuration

  1. Do steps 1-7 from previous list.
  2. [ coming soon ]

Manual creation

THIS INFORMATION IS OUTDATED

  1. Copy folder alx_pc from expression2 to "Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\data\expression2".
  2. Start the game.
  3. Get Wiremod tab - Chips, Gates - Expression 2 Tool in hands.
  4. Open folder "alx_pc" in e2 editor.
  5. Place e2 chip somewhere with BIOS_Chipset.txt file.
  6. Do same and spawn another chips with CPU.txt, GPU.txt, HDD_Controller.txt and HDD.txt.
  7. Get Memory - DHDD tool and spawn 1 or more HDD Banks near HDD chip.
  8. Spawn one more DHDD for BIOS ROM.
  9. Spawn two wire buttons (power/reset) without TOGGLE checkbox.
  10. Spawn EGP, Digital Screen.
  11. Spawn two wire indicators (Visuals->Indicators->Indicator).
  12. Spawn any prop as BIOS Speaker.
  13. Spawn Wire Gate "To Character" (connect NullByte on BIOS to Out on this gate).
  14. Connect everything between chips using Wiring tool, don't forget connect every chip to BIOS.
  15. If everything connected correct - you can boot PC now.

Have fun. :)
