Ulx downgrade broke darkrp.
« on: March 22, 2010, 02:58:07 AM »
I have downgraded from the svn 3.50 to the stable 3.40 to see if I could reduce crashing but all I achieved was me spawning with no equipment and the money does not load at all, has anyone seen this?

Sounds like the actual gamemode broke. When you 'downgraded' ULX what all did you delete?

Also, there has been a LOT of known issues with DarkRP and ULX having issues when run together.. that is because DarkRP was very poorly written and it overrides/breaks a lot of things in ULX... or ULX breaks things in DarkRP (not ULX's fault.. its due to poor code on DarkRPs end)

Even stranger thing, does ulx or ulib create files any where else besides its addon folders?

Yes.. in garrysmod/data there is a ULib folder that contains all of the users and group permissions and such as well as bans. GMod can only write data to the data directory, it can not write files to the lua or addons folder.

I should probably erase those as well when trying to downgrade correct?

Absolutely.
Look before deleting though.
If you use release before going to SVN, the files in data/ULib get converted to a new format made for SVN.
There is no conversion from new to old, but, the SVN should have created a backup.
I forget the file names though. Might find some there.
If not, edit your /settings/users.txt as explained in the readme file and links around here for how to add yourself as superadmin in Garry's mod, then delete /data/ULib and restart your server.
