Small question regarding XGUI status after GM13 update
« on: November 13, 2012, 03:58:38 AM »
Hello all!
I have just finished finalizing my garrysmod server, and the last thing I need is ULX! I am a huge fan of it! I just have one question. Before I ask it though, I did do prior research on this topic, with little results, and I know it might make some of the team mad, but what is the progress with XGUI? Is is having problems? Can someone tell me what's going on with it? Im not asking when it will be done.

Thanks,
Samg381
Ulysses fan

I'll let Stickly Man give a full answer, as he's the primary developer of XGUI. But I can tell you the main thing holding back XGUI in GM13 (and indeed, other Ulysses projects too) is lack of time and the number of breakages garry introduced (and continues to introduce) in the new version of gmod.

XGUI works for the most part-- there's just a few errors that occur when working with specific parts of the menu. And many things look odd lol. For the most part, the major issues are documented here: https://github.com/Nayruden/Ulysses/issues (Anything labeled "XGUI"). I believe there are a few issues I'm aware of that aren't on the list, but those are usually pretty minor things.

I would look at those issues to check where the iffy things are and just try to avoid them (adverts menu, especially). The worst case scenario if something bad happens would be a lua error on the client that makes a few things stop working, possibly followed by XGUI sticking open on the screen requiring you to rejoin the server. Just be sure to check for updates regularly or follow the Github project so you can receive notifications of updates! Hopefully I'll be able to get a chunk of stuff done over the next couple of days-- at least, after Thursday sometime.

We would appreciate that! Ulysses costs us quite a bit, both in time and money (mainly web server costs). :)
