XGUI - Fully featured modular GUI for ULX! (Included with ULX v3.51 and SVN)

[Stickly Man!]

I still do, haven't found out what happened just yet.

[Aaron113]

OK I sent you my adverts.txt

[Stickly Man!]

Hmm, turns out something funky is goin on when ULX parses the adverts.txt file. Basically, on your entry that includes your steamcommunity URL:

Code: [Select]

"Steam group located @ http://steamcommunity.com/groups/<url>" "60"--It seems to not like the forward slashes.

I'll inform Megiddo and he can probably get it fixed really soon.

[Aaron113]

ok

[JamminR]

We've had problems using forward slashes in adverts for a looong time and I'm not sure there was ever a good way to 'fix' it.
Gmod sees // as comments. Again, it's Garry's way of adding comments. True lua = "--"
At the time, I think string.find and other string.replace commands would actually ignore the // because the engine saw it first and thought it was a comment.
It's possible that may have changed now.
I'd have to search 2 or 3 years back, but a discussion here on the forums with someone reporting the same adverts issue ended up being 'don't use //, use "Visit site www.blah.com/pagename.blah" '

EDIT - Found this. http://forums.ulyssesmod.net/index.php/topic,1260.msg5994.html#msg5994
No evidence in that post that we tried fixing it, but I seem to remember discussing it with Megiddo in Steam IM.
Again, it's possible we could find a work around now.

The "Allowed Maps" in the "Player Votemap List" doesn't save so votemap gets reset every start up and gets overwritten.

It doesn't work on my server
When i start my server it says this:

addons\xgui\lua\ulx\modules\xgui_server.lua:42: attempt to call field 'replicate
dWritableCvar' (a nil value)

[Megiddo]

Svn of ulib and ulx is required. You should throw the svn link of xgui up, Stickly.

[Stickly Man!]

@Aaron: Hmm, can't really test right now (at work), but as I recall it was working fine for me. Try moving/deleting/renaming your current votemaps.txt file and see if XGUI then saves it.

@maaarten: Like Megiddo said, make sure you're using the SVN ULib/ULX-- If you already are, then make sure you update it! 

[maaarten]

When i use the svn versions of ulib and ulx i get these errors in the server  console.

Looks like your groups.txt file is corrupt... I should make it not fail so hard in that case, though.

[maaarten]

When i replace the groups.txt file with a older version it also doesn't work. I also deleted the groups.txt and let ulib make a new onem, doesn't work either.
i'm out if ideas

Did you change the default groups.txt?

[Stickly Man!]

Also, to anyone who uses the PlayX addon, the author has just released an update that fixes an issue with XGUI (After any video started playing, clicking on the tabs would do nothing). So if you use PlayX, be sure to update!

no, its says in the file not to edit the default groups.txt
