Hey can you make the updates you told us about ?

Can I have the right to modify the textures and other things of your add-on and re-upload on the workshop by crediting you and in order to use these props for my server please ?

Hi, there is a way to remove the limite of the 10 characters ?
Not_Your_Tester 3 May, 2020 @ 11:05am 
init.lua does not work
guachitonico  [author] 15 Jul, 2019 @ 12:53pm 
+sharkguy 44 it's set by default so it doesn't clog up servers resources. You can set the despawn time in init.lua, set it to something like 10000000 (not much more as the number might overflow)
Not_Your_Tester 6 Jul, 2019 @ 1:56pm 
I Hate that this thing has a time limit Can you (Creator) Remove that Feature.
guachitonico  [author] 28 Jun, 2019 @ 11:58am 
+YoungGem Sure, you have to decompile the gma and edit the client Lua file to change the font. It must be a compatible font so it works across every system.
CyberSymbiote 28 Jun, 2019 @ 7:55am 
Is there a way to change the font type?
Mikhaïl 11 Jun, 2019 @ 4:53am 
blacklisted model :/
Pakucza 18 Jun, 2018 @ 4:14am 
dont save useless
ColossalCereal 27 May, 2018 @ 10:17pm 
Alright. Oddly this addon and every other addon I've gotten at the same time aren't appearing in my folder. Just got them while browsing, haven't actually loaded them up in game yet so I wonder if doing that would fix it.

Thanks!
guachitonico  [author] 27 May, 2018 @ 2:10am 
@ian Try reinstalling the addon. I can find the addon under "GarrysMod\garrysmod\addons\writable_note.gma"
ColossalCereal 25 May, 2018 @ 3:16pm 
Hey :)

Where can I find the init.lua, from decompressing the .gma file right? I can't seem to find the .gma file for this mod in my garry's mod > addons folder for some reason so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
guachitonico  [author] 19 Apr, 2018 @ 5:25am 
@>KEKSQUAD Yes. You have to decompress the .gma (look it up), and change the despawn time in init.lua (it's clearly indicated). Set a very high despawn time and they won't despawn (e.g. 999999999).
>KB> >KEKSQUAD 18 Apr, 2018 @ 12:48pm 
Is there a way to prevent them from despawning?
guachitonico  [author] 1 Apr, 2018 @ 9:27am 
@lucasmoonshadow they're under entities. Can't remember the category. Maybe "guachitonico" or "Other"
==Lucanmoonshadow== 1 Apr, 2018 @ 7:58am 
Where are they in the spawn menu? I can't find them. XD
guachitonico  [author] 17 Feb, 2018 @ 1:43pm 
@DerpySound It is designed that way so they don't eventually crash the server if someone abuses them. You can disable the timeout if you decompress the .gma and manually change the config (it's pretty visible), in init.lua
ALiteralFlower 17 Feb, 2018 @ 11:43am 
why do the notes dissapear after 10 minutes?
guachitonico  [author] 27 Jan, 2018 @ 4:45am 
@Ace Clover That's really strange. I'm quite sure that must be one of your addons which is causing a conflict with Writable Notes. I can only recommend try and see if removing some addons works.
Alsyke Klovell 27 Jan, 2018 @ 1:04am 
Nope, not a single word.
guachitonico  [author] 26 Jan, 2018 @ 3:00pm 
@Ace Clover hmm... that's weird. Nothing displays on the paper, 'Blank (press E to write)' or anything like that?
Alsyke Klovell 26 Jan, 2018 @ 2:05pm 
Sandbox, and i dont see anything in the console about errors.
guachitonico  [author] 26 Jan, 2018 @ 2:00pm 
@Ace Clover Sorry it didn't work. What gamemode are you playing? Are there any lua errors?
Alsyke Klovell 26 Jan, 2018 @ 9:56am 
All it is is a piece of paper, nothing else, cant write on it.
Alsyke Klovell 26 Jan, 2018 @ 9:56am 
It does not even work.
guachitonico  [author] 20 Jan, 2018 @ 2:21am 
@Voikanaa In the meanwhile, if you need to change the despawn time, follow the instructions above, decompress the .gma and manually change the despawn time (it's fairly easy as there are comments).
guachitonico  [author] 20 Jan, 2018 @ 2:20am 
@Voikanaa Great suggestion! Added it to the planned features. I can't work on it right now because I'm on my finals.
Voikanaa 19 Jan, 2018 @ 9:03am 
Despawn time ConVar would be nice. Or ability to disable it completely. :gmod:
paulbladder14 23 Oct, 2017 @ 4:46pm 
@guachitonico no problem
guachitonico  [author] 23 Oct, 2017 @ 9:04am 
@Aaantiguy. Yes, I'm sorry. I decided to keep the letter per line limit quite small, because it might be hard to read for some people, and one can't really inspect the notes, so I can't make letter size too small nor make it overflow the paper model. Thanks for your thoughts anyway!
paulbladder14 22 Oct, 2017 @ 10:02am 
@guachitonico Wouldn't that kind of defeat the whole purpose of making the letters smaller?
I guess if it's just a cosmetic thing it's okay. Yeah
guachitonico  [author] 22 Oct, 2017 @ 2:14am 
@Aaantiguy. I could make the size changeable (just for the edit note dialog), but I won't change the maximum number of letters per line. Would that be okay?
paulbladder14 21 Oct, 2017 @ 3:00pm 
could you make the font size changeable in an option menu or something? That would be pretty helpful.
hiddenpool 14 Sep, 2017 @ 5:06am 
Okey i try
guachitonico  [author] 13 Sep, 2017 @ 2:23pm 
@Black I haven't tried. Can you check if it works? I don't really know how permaprop works...
hiddenpool 12 Sep, 2017 @ 9:08am 
Can it be permaproped?
Kittyrat 17 Jul, 2017 @ 11:48am 
forget it uninstalled anyway you have my gratitude for responding :)
guachitonico  [author] 16 Jul, 2017 @ 5:57pm 
@SonySeva It's on the planned features list. As soon as I have the time to make it, I'll add that in :) Glad you like the addon!
SonySeva 8 Jun, 2017 @ 10:36pm 
And you can do so that this addon should definitely do a signature?
Kittyrat 4 May, 2017 @ 7:44am 
ill check
guachitonico  [author] 4 May, 2017 @ 3:10am 
@Kittyrat Are there any Lua errors? There might be an addon installed that has a conflict with the notes. I just tried and I can perfectly use the notes in Sandbox.
Kittyrat 3 May, 2017 @ 5:24pm 
sandbox and my use key is "e"
