ULX Logs Almost Unreadable

[xboxedd]

When I look at the ulx logs, it's very messy. The logs never seem to start a new line after something is printed.

For instance instead of...

Client "xboxedd" spawned in server
xboxedd: Hi
xboxedd: How is everyone today?

It says...

Client "xboxedd" spawned in serverxboxedd: Hixboxedd: How is everyone today?
Multiply this by 1000 and you can imagine how my logs look.

It seemed to start doing this randomly. I didn't install or change anything. In the logs I can see a transition between when It started new lines and when it doesn't.

Is there a fix for this so I can read my logs without having to search for certain words like "banned" or "killed", or is there something really simple that i'm missing?

If you're using normal Windows-Notepad, try going to the "Format" tab and checking "Word wrap".

Instead of that, I recommend using Notepad++ (http://notepad-plus-plus.org/), it's a lot better than normal Notepad IMO.

Happening for me too. Created a ticket. Expect a patch shortly.

Fixed -- At least for logging. Other files are not formatted as users would expect, but I'm hesitant to fix them until I know that Garry didn't make this change on accident (these files would take more work than the logging system).

Logging is all I really need fixed for now. Could you please tell me how to fix it (I get ulx through my server host and they only update it when new versions come out)?

I don't host my server on my computer. I use a dedicated server host.

Yes, but you'd still have to get the files to your computer somewhere, then, follow your hosts directions for uploading/updating files.

(And, some hosts allow you to add SVN links to a list that will skip the 'download to your, upload to thiers' step)

Well I don't want to reinstall ulx or accidentally replace/reset any files that I need. Is there a specific file from the svn that i can use to fix this?

No, the SVN and release versions differ too much for a drop-in replacement right now.

We store configuration data in your servers gmod/data/ folder...as long as you don't touch those, and don't custom modify ulib/ulx in your addon folders, nothing should be broken by you upgrading.

Just use Notepad++ and you wont have problems reading the ulx_logs
