I can't get ULX mod to work! [resolved]
« on: April 22, 2010, 02:58:08 PM »
For some reason, I can't make ULX Mod work in my server. I checked and its in the right folder, and I fully restarted my server, but it won't work!

It's not supposed to do anything by itself.

Ok, let me pull out my dentist's license...we're gonna have to pull teeth.
Did you also get ULib, the library we developed that ULX uses.
"What version" (Our release (from ulyssesmod.net download page), or SVN (using the SVN information of our forum area)?
"Where" did you get ULX (and ULib)
"When" you start your server, "What" server console messages appear regarding ULib and then ULX?
"Which" folder did you put it in?

And very important, when it 'won't work".... WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO?
What commands? How can you tell it's not working.

Rinse.
Repeat.

Okay...From the top:
I did get ULib
I got the new version (3 maybe?) from ulyssesmod.net
^
Started my server today and have constantly been starting and stopping, Nothing regarding ULX mod or  ULib happen at all!
I didn't put it in any folder, just the on it installed to, which according to the readme or w/e it was called is the right one
When it doesnt work I try to open the menu and stuff with the console or !menu
One big thing was the lack of MOTD

...I hope that answers all your questions!

Alright, now we're getting somewhere.

You didn't answer, are you running a dedicated server? (hlds.exe), or a listen ("Create Game" option from Gmod menu)
Also, just to verify, you aren't running Garry's mod 9 or less, right?

Sounds like you used the ULX installer.
The installer file path will almost always match the readme path so isn't necessarily a good check.
Problem is, the installer can't always tell where your local game path is, and almost never will tell if you're running a dedicated server/

So, your challenge is to find out if where it installed is actually your 'server' path.
And if not, move the ULib and ULX folders under \addons to the proper server addons location.

When starting your server, you should definitely see, unless there are errors, loading in it's console.
Will look like the below (you may see diff files, or errors that would help us help you)
