SpawnIcons?

[landocalrissian]

How would i add a spawn icon to my SWEP: it is a SWEP that goes into garrysmod/garrysmod/lua/weapon_pwnage_gun, not addons. inside that folder is the shared.lua file and thats it, i have seen various weapons that go in addons that have spawnicons so i know its possible, i also know the correct size is 256x256 and its format needs to be VMT/VTF

I believe you would put the material straight into shared.

If your weapon was in :
lua/entities/weapons/weapon_pwnage_gun
the texture would go in :
materials/entities/weapons/weapon_pwnage_gun

At least I think. :smile:

is the lua/material folder inside garrysmod/garrysmod/ or inside my pwnage_gun folder?

There is no lua/materials folder, the materials folder is located at :
garrysmod/garrysmod/materials.

Of course it would be simpler to package your gun in an addon where both the lua and materials folder would be at the base of the addon.

Is there anyway to put that into my addons folder instead of garrysmod/garrysmod/

Addons are put together just like the garrysmod/garrysmod folder, they just need an "info.txt"
[url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=804131&highlight=addon+info[/url]
so, your addons would have a lua folder, and a materials folder, and the info.txt

then the lua folder would contain "lua/weapons/<weapon folder name>/shared.lua
the materials folder would contain "materials/entites/weapons/<weaponfoldername>.vtf & .vtm
