Title: Gimp and ForcedDownload doesn't work!
Post by: MulleDK13 on October 30, 2007, 10:21:45 AM

Hi.. I installed ULX half a week ago, and I'm very satisfied :)

But... The gimp command does not work.. It says

"Admin Gimped Blah"

but the player can still chat normally.

In the ulx\cfg\server.ini there is

Code: [Select]

ulx addGimpSay "I'm a llama."
ulx addGimpSay "How do you fly?"
ulx addGimpSay "baaaaaaaaaah."
ulx addGimpSay "Llama power!"
ulx addGimpSay "Llamas are the coolest!"
ulx addGimpSay "What's that gun to move stuff?"
But they don't work in-game...

I made it work, but I had to change the chat.lua module and add them normally

Code: [Select]

local gimpSays = {"Could you please kill me?"} -- Holds gimp says
But why have a config command for it then? o.O

voteEcho in server.ini doesn't work either.. It never echoes choices, even though I put it to one.. I had to change this in the module too.

I can't get addForcedDownload working either.

I have this at the end of the server.ini file

Code: [Select]

ulx addForcedDownload "sound" 1
ulx addForcedDownload "media" 1
the folders are located in garrysmod\addons\ulx

Doesn't work if I do it by specifying each file either!


And if I add users in-game the groups.txt and users.txt doesn't change... They stays at default, but it remembers the admins even though I restart the server. (Not dedicated).

So... How does all this work?

Thanks in advance!

Not sure why gimp isn't working for you. This is first report I've seen of it.
Will research further.
Stuff in addons should normally not be moddified.
Lua can't modify addons folders. (devs, don't go here, to end users, they shouldn't be modified)
Treat folders in addons as 'virtual', so if you had something you wanted to configure in gmod\addons\SomeMod\cfg\server.ini ... then check your actual gmod\cfg\server.ini

This is true of any mod, not just ULX.
The files that get changed for users and groups related to ULib get created in \data\ULib
This prevents overwriting if/when we update

[Edit] Found this on our bug tracker. http://www.ulyssesmod.net/bugs/view.php?id=151
Is this a listen server you're having trouble with?

I marked the bug as confirmed.
As for running dedicated, you might enjoy it more, the people/friends who connect will for sure.
If you need to shut down gmod for any reason, yet still want to keep the server up, you can.

When I ran (and run/do dev work) a server, it is what I do.

Yea, I have been thinking of running a dedicated server for a long time now, but I had some trouble installing Armpit's one.... But it seems to download correctly now!

I believe Armpits has an outdated version of some mods, including ULX. At least a while back when I looked it did.
Make sure you get the latest addons for it.
