Description
NOTE: This is mainly designed for servers, but will work anywhere!

Ever wanted to make a great first impression on players? Many would say that a good loading screen is critical, but what comes next? Fay's Main Menu is the answer to that question! Give your players a live view of your server along with customizable menu options, a welcome message, and an integrated changelog! Thanks to the innovative in-game configuration system, this addon is extremely customizable and easy to set up!



Basic Information:
This addon will add a new main menu that will display when players join. It can display a logo of your choice along with a play button, a disconnect button, and various buttons that open links. There is also a changelog, which lets you communicate new server updates to your players, and a welcome message feature, which lets you introduce new players to your server.



How To Setup:
- After installing, run fmainmenu_config in the console (as a superadmin)
- Camera position and rotation is saved for each map you set it on



Features:
  • Works with most gamemodes
  • Simple to use for both players and server owners/developers
  • In-Game Configuration
  • Lightweight
  • Extremely customizable
  • Play and disconnect buttons by default
  • Ability to play music

The reason for the "NULL Entity" error at cl_mainmenu.lua:476 is because the hook HUDShouldDraw is trying to target the player before the player has been initialized. This is a easy fix.

It was pretty fun getting the footage that you needed for the mod

that seems more like something else is messing up ulx/ulib which messes up hooks and generally any addon
im doubting it's fadmin and more likely some garbage addon you have

Can you tell me what this could be about Fay, please.

Today I fixed a race condition that would result in a random chance of errors with the font being invalid. It will be pushed to the workshop after a few days of testing.

hmm, could you add me on discord? Fay#5177

It might be useful for you to send me your config. I dont really do gmod anymore but if I have time this weekend I might be able to take a look.
