Nakilox 26 Jul, 2023 @ 1:24am 
why the // the /ano /advert doesn't work
ZeroXitreo  [author] 6 Oct, 2020 @ 12:28am 
I'm currently working on an improved version of it, this will override IsTyping() function and allow things using this to be displayed properly

Hey, just letting you know, when you are typing, it doesn't do any chat animations, is there any way you could fix this for the addon? if so that would be very helpful
ThatCatGuy 25 Sep, 2020 @ 1:53pm 
do you mean the avatars ? if so thats fine as long as its possible as an option maybe..
ZeroXitreo  [author] 25 Sep, 2020 @ 1:30pm 
I'm not sure I personally want that for my version of the chat, but I can look into it and see if it can become a setting for such
ThatCatGuy 25 Sep, 2020 @ 11:52am 
also is it possible to make the users avatar show in the chat as well.
ThatCatGuy 25 Sep, 2020 @ 11:21am 
I use the D3A Admin system so hopefully it works with GetUserGroup
ZeroXitreo  [author] 25 Sep, 2020 @ 10:49am 
You can temporarily add the voice chat if you like. The new versions requires a bit more to the touch until release. The new versions will also work much better with a new admin mod coming out.
ThatCatGuy 25 Sep, 2020 @ 10:39am 
A new version on the basic chat would be nice as I use a custom darkrp the chat moduels are different so they won't work with other chatboxes like SCB and Atlas etc this one works nice just needs some extra stuff as stated.. im also going to add your voice chat notifications to my server or should I wait for a new version
ZeroXitreo  [author] 25 Sep, 2020 @ 10:30am 
I'll look into adding some icons support, I am however working on new versions of my addons, I'll see if I can add those icons to the new version :)
ThatCatGuy 25 Sep, 2020 @ 9:45am 
Like group icons like I use for my scoreboard. as below.

local icons = {}
icons['other'] = "icon16/user.png"
icons['owner'] = "icon16/asterisk_orange.png"
icons['vip'] = "icon16/award_star_silver_1.png"
icons['ultimatevip'] = "icon16/medal_gold_3.png"
icons['superadmin'] = "icon16/lightning.png"
icons['mod'] = "icon16/tux.png"
icons['admin'] = "icon16/shield.png"
icons['admin+'] = "icon16/shield_add.png"

called with this

icons[ply:GetUserGroup()]

along them lines and it goes infront of the message like below.

[11:23] RANKIMG NAME MESSAGE

also could you add a timestamp to the chats and a history if possible so you can push up to see you previous messages.
ZeroXitreo  [author] 24 Sep, 2020 @ 4:19pm 
In what sense? as emojis?
ThatCatGuy 24 Sep, 2020 @ 2:12pm 
is it possible to allow Silk Icons support or avatar support.
ZeroXitreo  [author] 12 Aug, 2020 @ 12:36am 
If I remember correctly, that's not an option you can do. I'll take it into consideration

How to change chat positsion ( x, u) in cl_chat.lua?
ZeroXitreo  [author] 12 May, 2020 @ 3:48pm 
TheCrustyPlayer™ Do you have an example of this? And about the store, I don't really like that things has to be put behind a paywall, I like to keep them free for all
TheCrustyPlayer™ 11 May, 2020 @ 5:49pm 
Looks great, Love the way you can customize it, the only thing that doesn't work for me is the faded version of chat for previous messages, but still a really good addon. im really surprised you didn't bundle them all and post it on Gmodstore.
ZeroXitreo  [author] 22 Jul, 2019 @ 7:49am 
Sorry for late responses, Steam doesn't seem to have given me notifications about these.
About to be able to see the messages, it automaticly fades previous messages just like the default chat.
About ULX, I can't remember if I'ved tested it, but do let me know if it does or not, and I'll look into it.
It should support sandbox gamemode as that's one of the reason I made it for.
The strange textbubble bug with the chat is known a bit, but haven't fully been checked to see what causes this effect, if you have a solution, feel free to post it on the GitHub version!

works strange on darkrp gamemode
when player types a message it doesnt plays animation and message icon above
vertexers 7 Mar, 2019 @ 11:54pm 
does it support sandbox gamemode
DrJeffBob 23 Feb, 2019 @ 10:48am 
Does it support ULX?
ImNotSimon 1 Feb, 2019 @ 12:22pm 
this looks fucking overused on servers
Duncan Duvall | Kitsu 26 Jan, 2019 @ 2:38pm 
Hello, i have a problem with your chat, for watch messages , i must open the chat, or i want watch a messages without open a chat , have you a solution ?
Synk 11 Jan, 2019 @ 7:17pm 
Yea for somereason the error is gone now ....
Synk 11 Jan, 2019 @ 7:17pm 
Ok
ZeroXitreo  [author] 11 Jan, 2019 @ 7:09pm 
the error you're getting doesn't seem to be anything from this addon. and sure, I'll see if I can't have a make-over for the chat system to include a couple of things like team chats and URL (private isn't a part of the chat system itself, sorry but that has to be working outside with something like evolve mod or ULX)
Synk 11 Jan, 2019 @ 6:50pm 
Maybe you could also add url support ?
Synk 11 Jan, 2019 @ 6:41pm 
Also with some of your addons installed I get conflicts with ulx

Synk 11 Jan, 2019 @ 6:31pm 
You should also add team chat and private messages
ZeroXitreo  [author] 11 Jan, 2019 @ 6:19pm 
I think I know what you're talking about, when you exit the chat window the text jumps as it no longer has a scroll line, could try and fix this in an upcomming update
Synk 11 Jan, 2019 @ 5:52pm 
This is really strange it still does the flicker thing but now it works all of a sudden...
ZeroXitreo  [author] 11 Jan, 2019 @ 4:56pm 
Is there a way you can show me this via a picture, video or by other means?
Synk 11 Jan, 2019 @ 12:50pm 
I have a strange issue.. The chat does not show messages unless you have it open and it does this strange glich thing when you close it
Just a lil' guy 10 Jan, 2019 @ 6:54pm 
Oh, so that's what that was for!
Thanks for the help!
ZeroXitreo  [author] 10 Jan, 2019 @ 4:48am 
There's no option to move it, the only way to move, you should be able to edit it on line 45
Just a lil' guy 10 Jan, 2019 @ 12:26am 
Is there a way to change the position of the chat on screen? I've been scouring the lua files and such for a while, but I couldn't find an option for it.
ZeroXitreo  [author] 28 Oct, 2018 @ 3:46am 
Should be fixed now.
ZeroXitreo  [author] 17 Oct, 2018 @ 5:28am 
Do you have the "Shrun Voice chat" installed?

help
ZeroXitreo  [author] 28 Dec, 2017 @ 3:59am 
Hm... I am currently on a short break from gmod due to study, so I wouldn't say it would be possible as for the time being; however if I plan on adding something like that it would most likely be in correlation with the "Shrun Theme Editor"
AnomNom 27 Dec, 2017 @ 6:51pm 
Qustion:

Is it possible to do the following:

1) Open an edit menu.
2) Shrink the size of the text.
3) Make names diffrent from the default colors. (Maybe with ULX Ranks?)
Soma 29 Aug, 2017 @ 8:51am 
Sounds good, and thanks again for working on this! :D
ZeroXitreo  [author] 24 Aug, 2017 @ 7:49pm 
Wouldn't be ideal for the idea I am trying to create here, but if I find an easy way to implement this feature I'll be sure to do so! :)
Soma 24 Aug, 2017 @ 2:51pm 
Awesome, and thank you so much for all your work on it so far :)

If I may be so hasty to make one more suggestion, it would be really nice if you found a way to let us resize the elements individually, and maybe be able to place them in different parts of the screen?

I'm semi-familiar with coding, so I understand it's not easy to do this stuff, especially for gmod xD
ZeroXitreo  [author] 24 Aug, 2017 @ 2:46pm 
Alright, seems like it's a requested feature, I'll see what I can do this weekend if I got time for it :)
Soma 24 Aug, 2017 @ 2:16pm 
The Shrun HUD is awesome, I love using it. I'm customizing it for my cyberpunkRP server that I'm working on. I was also wondering about what Kiczy! was asking; Is there any chance of making the chat box/chat text go away after a short bit? The default Gmod hud does it, but its ugly af xD
Artzyival 3 Aug, 2017 @ 11:25pm 
Ok thanks! By the way I love both of the hud mods you've created!
ZeroXitreo  [author] 31 Jul, 2017 @ 5:59pm 
I could work on something alike, haven't really looked too much into this, I'll give it a try and add your request next time I work on it :)
