My group and I were super hyped to use this mod, but I appear to be running into the same issue that many people have been reporting where the menu simply refuses to load any of the option selections. Part of me thinks it may be some sort of mod conflict with a commonly used mod, but I've tried putting it at the beginning, end and middle of the load order to no avail.

I have one full can of every color in my inventory and at least one copy in my secondary equip but no matter how many times I log out/back in, or sort through the buttons, no color or symbol option actually appears.

Clicking around the seemingly empty menus I can sometimes grab a color, and sometimes a symbol, but it's impossible to tell what I'm actually selecting until I try to pull it over the ground.

Fantastic mod and I hope someone's able to recognize the conflict (if there is one) or that a future update resolves this problem. It'll definitely be a requirement for every MP playthrough I have when it does.

invisible symbols in the UI?

"If you have one spray can or piece of chalk in your main inventory, you can open the spray paint menu to begin to spray/draw."

How? How is this supposed to work? Because i get nothing when i click around. Does this even work in MP? Or is this singleplayer only?
Purple Nebula 5 May, 2024 @ 5:14pm 
Yeah I don't have a color picker either
Sulotahi 3 Apr, 2024 @ 5:56am 
i dont even have the color chooser on any of my categories, so i cant even try the solution you guys said
bioinformer 24 Feb, 2024 @ 7:07pm 
do you need Paint or Spray Pain cans?
ClaireinSorcia 19 Feb, 2024 @ 1:51pm 
For those getting 'no spray paint of that color' make sure you have paint in main inventory. on the spraypaint menu navigate to the right and choose 'Special Characters'' as the category. There is a color picker in the window, choose the color here, then you can choose another category to paint what symbol. I can't get chalk to work, but i did get it to spray after a few clicks
RangerZero2 30 Jan, 2024 @ 5:08pm 
You need to have the can of paint in your main inventory, and in the little box where you choose what to paint, find a category where your color appear on top and click the color before trying to paint anything.

It doesn't work, I tried all the solutions but it keeps telling me "non spray of that colour"
nikos 31 Dec, 2023 @ 11:00am 
The hud icon is too distracting for me, i cant find a way to move it, its just so out of place. maybe i will add this back if the way its on the hud is changed / made customizable
neverstopgambling 12 Dec, 2023 @ 6:22pm 
@Kenkire same thing
Bananaut 4 Dec, 2023 @ 8:40am 
@Cinquime

"Having an issue where no matter what I have in my inventory, it says "You don't have that color""

Solution: Go to Special Character tab in the spray menu then choose a color there if you have spraypaint or chalk in you. I dont know why it doesnt have the color chooser on other menus/tab

Doesn't it work on the latest version?
Kainos 25 Nov, 2023 @ 12:05pm 
Not sure if it's a mod conflict or what, but using a keybind for paint menu gives errors and the mod doesn't work at all with a controller. Nice for KB+M use though.

Hello ! First of all, thanks for the mods, my players love it !

I would just ask one question/give a recommendation : your mod doesn't work with a controller. Is it possible to make it, in the future ? It would be so great ! :D thanks a lot, have a nice day/week/month/year !

Man, the button to open this menu needs to be moved. it overlaps with other things and it's really annoying
Solaris _@Y 5 Sep, 2023 @ 12:48am 
Oh maaaan this would be the perfect mod to add actual road paints so when we build custom roads or expand existing ones we could emulate the look they have in the game. It's a shame they didn't add this option to the game baseline with the already existing paint system.
If you could add the road paints from the game to this it would be awesome.
M.S.Referee 31 Aug, 2023 @ 11:05am 
There are 3 problems,
1. The icon can't be moved by mouse.
2. When character died and click 'new character' to living create a new character into game, mod cannot be used anymore because the icon disappears and can't open up the window to use.
3. There are no title and spray paint items translation ID, so now these things couldn't be translated.
Healsfire 12 Aug, 2023 @ 1:14pm 
Has anyone had the issue where spray-painted items are solid and have collision?
Crimson 30 Jul, 2023 @ 5:07am 
Can you add some industrial symbols to help organize a base? (yellow strip lines for caution, "stand clear", "loading", "unloading" areas etc.)

Would be sick n sweet
Kanarek 29 Jun, 2023 @ 9:45am 
I really like the idea of using this kind of stuff for marking things. I'd really love to finally be able to use that chalk. Solid mod at the moment, it'll be great if chalk finally works.
Tris 21 Jun, 2023 @ 7:46am 
Hey, can we see in the log who use spraypaint ? If someone use it for put insult on the floor, i need to know who...

"I don't have a spraypaint of this color" x 1,000,000
Stomno 1 Jun, 2023 @ 2:42pm 
Please notify when it's ready for the walls. I will stay tuned.
Thuztor  [author] 29 May, 2023 @ 12:35am 
@Buttshredder & @Jasdan It will take a while yet, because I'm currently drawing textures for my map. Maybe in between I find time and desire.
Buttshredder 24 May, 2023 @ 8:36pm 
@Thuztor PLEASE put in a proper removal method for the spraypaint, that is all.
RoughGalaxy 14 May, 2023 @ 7:43am 
I can't seem to get chalk to work at all. (no color selection like with the spray paint) also the icons are really small.
EvilDude 24 Apr, 2023 @ 4:59am 
nvm i just read the full description
EvilDude 24 Apr, 2023 @ 4:36am 
Would painting on walls be possible eventually? Or having a specialised sign tile that can be spray painted on?
Prof.Liebstrumpf 9 Apr, 2023 @ 9:39am 
I see an typo in "media\lua\shared\Translate\DE\UI_DE.txt".
Should be "UI_DE" and not "UI_EN" :steamhappy:
Crimson 7 Apr, 2023 @ 6:11pm 
Turkey I've been looking for a mod that allows me to paint hazard stripes and loading/unloading marker stripes, can I do it with this mod? (painting straight lines at least?)
RamboTurkey 26 Mar, 2023 @ 2:19am 
im using another mod that ads spay paint
Thuztor  [author] 26 Mar, 2023 @ 2:15am 
I'll rework the mod, if the new version b42 comes out, which will change the crafting system and how items work. The mod has to reworked anyway.
- And than I could add crayons too.
- Later I can look into controller implementation.
- Just a version with chalk seems not logicly to me -> sorry that I haven't implement them yet.
RamboTurkey 26 Mar, 2023 @ 1:36am 
can you do a chalk only version
Prof.Liebstrumpf 25 Mar, 2023 @ 10:56am 
Is it possible to add crayons? ^^
Love <3 10 Mar, 2023 @ 10:34am 
Only Spray Cans work for me not the Chalk :/

Play_all_day 23 Feb, 2023 @ 6:44pm 
Is there a way to restrict the alphabets to be used only by Admin only? Didnt want people to be tagging the floor with profanity, hateful and discriminatory wordings.
TTVbadluckbiggs 27 Jan, 2023 @ 9:10am 
can you erase the markings?
MKB 14 Jan, 2023 @ 10:54am 
mmm don't have spray paint of that color, read the fix in the comments but it didn't work, the itemes spawn the symbol appears it just dosen't work for me anymore.
Nobody 9 Jan, 2023 @ 11:02pm 
Oh my God, this mod got updated
i13e134c14 5 Nov, 2022 @ 8:44am 
work perfect in MP server i test on my server but can't delete symbol in now sad
Adler 25 Oct, 2022 @ 4:06am 
@Vinnie2171 Nope, didn't work for me.

Unfortunately, this mod conflicts with some other mod, but there's no way to find out which one due to how little information error messages display. Had to unsubscribe from it.
