Removing the ULX MOTD?
« on: January 16, 2014, 04:31:37 PM »
I have a custom MOTD that I am trying to replace the default ULX MOTD with and I want to use the same command (!motd). When I disable the ULX motd, it disables the entire !motd command. I tried going into the ulx files and changing the ULX command to !umotd, but that didn't work. If anyone knows how to do this, please tell me. Thanks.

Put the motd you want under garrysmod_root/ulx_motd.txt.

You mean a full on custom motd, or just one you wrote?

Ah sorry, I misunderstood. You should be able to remove lua/ulx/modules/cl/motdmenu.lua to disable the ULX MOTD.

I removed motdmenu.lua and it removes the ULX motd, but it seems like it's still interfering with my custom motd because nothing shows up now when I type !motd.

How did you register "!motd"?

You need to add the command "!motd".

To my custom MOTD? The command is already added to that.

I purchased the MOTD from someone else. I have the code, but changing the command is in a config file which then links to another file which puts it into effect. I can show you the code for the config file, if that would be of any use.

It seems to me, that ulx still is trying to use the ULX motd, and doesn't let anything else use the !motd command.

No. It sounds like you're simply not registering it as a command.

I change the command to something else such as !motdu and it works. !motd does not work.

The command is registered in ulx/modules/sh/menus.lua, but it's only registered if the motdmenu.lua exists.
