I don't think that will work as well as you think it would.
Moh 22 Mar @ 8:27am 
you could make a PREset when you load in the game as if its default settings for the game depending on how the user put it yk?
Aureate Eternal  [author] 22 Mar @ 4:02am 
There is a way to do it, though not through this mod. You will have to add the commands to the launch options in the game's properties to save them.

I wanted to make it possible to save the settings in the mod proper but I'm not sure how possible it is to do that or how.

What can I say? This is fantastic, although is it not possible to keep some setting like the Classic Weapon Switch in each game/map load?

I've been having frame issues too last time I played Gmod, though it definitely seemed to be either another mod or the fact I have too many causing it.
Moh 14 Nov, 2024 @ 4:22pm 
your good aureate i am sorry for causing stress to you
my gmod's been bugging so i have been removing and tweaking alotta code to fix the fps issue
thanks man
Aureate Eternal  [author] 14 Nov, 2024 @ 4:02pm 
I am not sure. It should not be doing that at all. Nothing in this mod should alter fps limits... there's literally no code in here to do that.

I can't even troubleshoot the issue much either since I don't have a display capable of going above 60 at this time.
Moh 14 Nov, 2024 @ 8:30am 
forgive me for the disrespect but for some reason this locks me onto 60 despite being on 144 usually whys that the case?

what this make a more realistic
kinny 19 Apr, 2024 @ 7:19pm 
Yeah I Got it all from a collection that's why i didn't read lmao, still good tho
Aureate Eternal  [author] 19 Apr, 2024 @ 4:12pm 
I mean, reading the description of this mod would've probably made it make more sense.

Otherwise, that's just the fault of how I titled those settings. I thought they'd be funny little secret settings or something and I didn't know what to title them.
kinny 19 Apr, 2024 @ 4:10pm 
why was i expecting invasion mode to be like zombie survival lmao, and haunted mode for shit to happen lmaoo

I have tested this mod numerous times in both singleplayer and multiplayer and have encountered zero issues either hosting or joining servers . I have also tested compatibility with over 3000 other mods (Not even kidding, I have that many installed.). Unless the lag is being caused by some sort of menu/hud mismatch, I'm pretty sure this mod is not the issue.
Toby270GTX9008 2 Dec, 2023 @ 9:20am 
i want this to work in a server, i have lag when i play multiplayer and i cant use practically none of this options

A proper guide has now been made available including some screenshots for the tutorial bit.

I started a list in a thread for now. There's also some short tutorials in here. Very short. I'm going to make a proper guide later if someone else doesn't beat me to it, but for now...

You right click Garry's Mod in your library and click properties. At the bottom of the general settings there is a textbox for Launch Options. Basically, if you do everything right, you put console commands in here and those settings are applied every time you start a game.

If you want specific commands, I'll work on a list here in a moment. My mod doesn't include saving of these settings because I don't know how to make it save these settings without using the launch option method.
Neon the Sylveon (Graduate!!!) 2 Oct, 2023 @ 2:04pm 
that doesnt help at all
Aureate Eternal  [author] 2 Oct, 2023 @ 2:01pm 
You would need to do it by adding the necessary commands to the game's launch options. At least, that's the main thing I know of.
Neon the Sylveon (Graduate!!!) 2 Oct, 2023 @ 1:55pm 
How do you save the settings you have?

The game has a built-in option for something called "Specular Materials" which more or less reflect the map to an extent.

The reflective objects option toggles this effect, the option in the menu is called Reflective instead of Specular so people who don't know the proper name and what it means can (hopefully) understand what it does better.
THOMAS-THE-THERMO-NUCLEAR-BOMB 3 Aug, 2023 @ 3:18am 
so it can do reflects on models?
mac n' cheese 10 Jul, 2023 @ 12:52pm 
probably one of the most useful addons ngl
Aureate Eternal  [author] 25 Jun, 2023 @ 4:44pm 
@Golden Darkness, should be mat_fullbright 0 if I remember correctly, I'll double check this later.

Also if you are playing a workshop map that never had lighting or you are playing a map that has lighting but it somehow broke, it defaults to fullbright.

There is a way to fix a map that actually broke but I cannot remember how.
Rosie 25 Jun, 2023 @ 12:47pm 
For some reason fullbright is stuck on. I don't remember how to disable it via the console.

I dunno. I forgot what my point was.
coolguyVicaso 7 Feb, 2023 @ 5:24pm 
What does that mean?
Aureate Eternal  [author] 7 Feb, 2023 @ 1:23pm 
@coolguyVicasso, I have almost 3000 mods installed :lol:
coolguyVicaso 7 Feb, 2023 @ 1:04pm 
Thank you for making this. Sometimes when I play in maps and spawn a prop, every reflection shows a missing texture. It does take awhile but it's because I have 1000 Damn addons

@Aureate Eternal

Thank you for this mod I have realistic NPC fight mods and my game is tough one bullet giving 7-8 damage maybe this mod can help me thank you again

@Afrikafrik

The difficulty setting was removed because it appeared to not do anything because someone at Facepunch removed most/all of the difficulty scripting. Last I checked, only certain SNPC packs and gamemodes have difficulty options that use an entirely separate command and also use their own settings in the spawnmenu.

This mod still has the difficulty option if you want it: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2355482345

1 is easy, 2 is medium, 3 is hard if I remember correctly.

I will re-add difficulty to EEO when I know for a fact that it actually does affect difficulty.
Overwatch 15 Jan, 2023 @ 1:30pm 
add Difficulty Setting again, please?
Aureate Eternal  [author] 5 Nov, 2022 @ 8:23am 
I mean, knowing how to reset the eyes without this mod is probably a good thing to learn anyway cuz I don't think setting it in this mod's menu will keep the fix after shutting down the game.

Someone feel free to correct me if they tested it and I'm wrong.
Director 5 Nov, 2022 @ 6:01am 
and right when i posted that comment i figured out how to fix the eye without the mod
Director 5 Nov, 2022 @ 5:59am 
finally i can use demoman ragdolls
BloxyDoesStuff 30 Jul, 2022 @ 7:05pm 
Well then my Gmod must be jacked up
Aureate Eternal  [author] 27 Jul, 2022 @ 2:06pm 
I went into singleplayer, no beam.

I went into a server, the beam became white.

I went into a different server, no beam.
Aureate Eternal  [author] 27 Jul, 2022 @ 2:02pm 
@Bloxy

Just did some testing, both singleplayer and some server hopping, and...

It looks like it's a plugin or mod the server runs to prevent physgun abuse. So the only way you're gonna get around it is if you find a server that isn't running the anti-abuse system.
BloxyDoesStuff 27 Jul, 2022 @ 1:08pm 
well the thing is that i have done it before in like 2020 so yeah
Aureate Eternal  [author] 26 Jul, 2022 @ 11:31pm 
@BLOXY

I distinctly remember a Garry's Mod update released around 2016-ish that made it so you cannot make your physgun beam invisible during multiplayer. It was even talked about in the patch notes for the game as being updated to prevent players from abusing it.

I was even testing the black physgun around this time too and I witnessed the change myself when I tried using the black physgun on a random sandbox server after the update. I think I remember even trying to find a way around it, but I never did.

I made this mod about a year after that happened.
BloxyDoesStuff 26 Jul, 2022 @ 8:55pm 
so i think it might be a addon overidding it?
BloxyDoesStuff 26 Jul, 2022 @ 8:54pm 
and when im on my friend's multiplayer server thing its gone now but when im in singleplayer its back
BloxyDoesStuff 26 Jul, 2022 @ 8:52pm 
but the thing is my friend was able to make the physics beam invisible by doing that
Aureate Eternal  [author] 6 Jul, 2022 @ 7:21am 
@BLOXY THE PIRATE GAMER FOX

You can't hide the light, it's part of the game.

They changed the black physgun color in an update a few years ago because people were abusing it.

None of your questions involve this mod. These things happened before I made this mod.
BloxyDoesStuff 5 Jul, 2022 @ 9:53pm 
also why is my beam no longer invisible when i set the physics gun color to black
BloxyDoesStuff 5 Jul, 2022 @ 9:43pm 
and i have first person weopon off and physics gun beam off how do i fix this
