Cannot disable Motd
« on: March 21, 2013, 10:05:10 AM »
Hello there I'm having trouble disabling the motd feature on my server. I have deleted the ulx_motd.txt and disabled the part in config file that says

 "ulx showMotd 0; Set to 0 to disable showing motd on connect. Shows the file the cvar motdfile says to. Set to a URL to show a URL.
motdfile ulx_motd.txt ; The motd to show"

anyone got any ideas?
Thanks :)

Well it's disabled on that config file, unless I need to disable it somewhere else?

"ulx showmotd" = "1"
 <0/1/(url)> - Shows the motd to clients on startup. Can specify URL here.

This is what I have changed it to in the config.txt

ulx showMotd 0; Set to 0 to disable showing motd on connect. Shows the file the cvar motdfile says to. Set to a URL to show a URL.
motdfile ulx_motd.txt ; The motd to show

its set to 0

Something's setting it to 1. Check to make sure you don't have another line with "ulx showMotd 1" lower in the config or in other configs in garrysmod/cfg.

Which cfg did you edit?
If you edited the one in /addons/ulx/data/ulx/config.txt, you didn't follow the directions at the top of that file.
