Does this still work? Last time I tried it, I don't think it did.

It's major problem I know of is that Gmod usermessages can get sent out of order.
I've not changed it to help fight out of order usermessages.
ULib incorporated a way to prevent sending too early, but I'd been planning on making this not require ULib.
I really should find time to update it.

*sigh* Some day.
Every time I think about using the Ulib 'fix broken usermessages' function, I end up not doing anything because again, when I go fully public with this, I hope not to use ULib.
I've just not had the urge to really code lately.

Compatibility. Yes, ULib is awesome.
Unfortunately, not everyone wants to use it.

Alex, though we appreciate your, uh, fervor for our project, Jay is right. We like simplicity.
If I only had plans to release it here, I might make it rely on ULib.
However, I hope some day to release it in the wild (aka garrysmod.org and facepunch.com)
With all the competition out for various releases, I like having a broader market for the ULib haters.
Perhaps when they see what members of Ulysses release without relying on ULib, they won't be so afraid of modules that rely on it.
(Big dream, I know, but still a fun one) ;D

I use this, and love it.. Just one quick question, I edited my info page and added 3 iframes, they are html files, saved as .txt which is presumably the correct format seeing as the rest of html in gmod is in text format. They show up as though they aren't there. If I save them as .html filles would I just put them where the motd is located for easy navigation?

Knight, your iframe pages would have to be stored on an actual http web server somewhere and converted to iframe links within your info page.
The HTML/text that is displayed to the client is sent to the client in one file, and then the client sees that one file in his screen. Any other content shown would need to be accessible from the client, not the server.

JamminR, sorry, but your position at ULib looks weird for me. UMotd just doesn't work in a proper way! It doesn't show the motd at spawn, cause usermessages get unsyncronized. I always get "Unhandled usermessage [UMotdText]" errors, but when I write in chat !motd it shows the motd. So I'm going to fix that using ULib...but I need help, cause I'm not sure what ULib functions I should use. Can anyone help me?

UMotd doesn't work due to Garry's updates over the past year. Just like our official release of ULX menu's don't, only SVN.
I've just not found time to work on UMotd.
However, when/if I did, I'd be using ULib's game mode hooks from ULib SVN, as they've been patched to work and properly detect when a player is ready.

I'm having problems with the motd not showing on spawn, i have ulx ulib umotd all svn and up to date, typing !motd works, but when i go to console and type ulx showMotd i get this
] ulx showMotd
"showMotd" = "0"
admin
  CVAR generated by ULib
, when i try ulx showMotd 1 or rcon "ulx showMotd 1 then rejoin the game and type ulx showMotd in the console again its back to zero, i cant figure out what i messed up. the last thing i remember doing before it quit showing up was i deleted ulx_motd, and put motd_template into gmod/data/Umotd

edit, i joined my game and noticed a error in console,
Warning: Unhandled usermessage 'UMotdStart'
Warning: Unhandled usermessage 'UMotdText'
Warning: Unhandled usermessage 'UMotdText'
Warning: Unhandled usermessage 'UMotdText'
