How to change look/skin of the "Console", "Options"..?

[OmegaExtern]

I am wondering how to change skin for menu dialogs such as "Console", "Options" (...) in Garry's Mod?
I know it is possible to do this in TF2 and CSS..
So, I have searched for "mainmenu.res" and "mainmenuoverride.res" files in entire (base) GarrysMod folder, found no matches. I have then searched inside GarrysMod/garrysmod/garrysmod_dir.vpk file, again no matches.
But, then I have looked into "materials" folder of that vpk file, and there is a subfolder called "console" which tells me that's the right thing to edit or perhaps I am wrong?

It's the same way as any other Source Engine game.

True.
It turned out I was looking for a wrong file. It is actually "SourceScheme.res", located in GarrysMod\garrysmod\resource folder.

Aw.. :happy:

It was changed already

It is pretty easy. I think I will do a small designer app :cool:
That will make it easier and also quicker to make skins..

I need one information from somebody more experienced.
What's the name of [URL="http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=1v8w5Tpp"]this format[/URL]?
I just know, it is not BSON, CSON, JSON nor INI.

looks like the default keyvalue text which gmod uses.

Steam, and other Source engine games uses this too.. In "Steam/config" folder they have extension "VDF"..
Now, I have found this: [URL]https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Notepad%2B%2B_VDF_languages[/URL]

gmod uses the same keyvalues as any other source game, so... looks like keyvalues, as I said.

Well, there are several "Key-Value pair" languages from Valve.
The thing is, I need a parser (serializer and deserializer) for "Generic VDF" language as that's what SourceScheme.res uses :worried:
I can write my own, but I really wouldn't like to "reinvent the wheel" if somebody has made public one already..

If you're using C++ you can compile the source engine's tier1 library and use the KeyValues class. Otherwise, read it and weep: [url]https://github.com/ValveSoftware/source-sdk-2013/blob/master/mp/src/tier1/KeyValues.cpp[/url].

Easy way to use tier1 properly if you are using premake5 is to include [url]https://github.com/glua/SourceSDK[/url] in your project and use include() [url=https://github.com/glua/gm_console/blob/master/premake5.lua#L22]link so[/url].

Ask nicely and somebody would probably just chuck some bindings for this in to a module.

Is there only the console with low alpha?

[QUOTE=geferon;48866213]Is there only the console with low alpha?[/QUOTE]

As you see there is! ^-^

[Netheous]

[QUOTE=geferon;48866213]Is there only the console with low alpha?[/QUOTE]

Console is full alpha, but alpha goes down when it's not being focused.

Thank
PS : Why block me ?

[QUOTE=Netheous;48866545]Console is full alpha, but alpha goes down when it's not being focused.[/QUOTE]

So it is only invisible when you havent got it "selected" (as the lastly used panel, or the panel in the top)?

[QUOTE=geferon;48866613]So it is only invisible when you havent got it "selected" (as the lastly used panel, or the panel in the top)?[/QUOTE]

focused = selected, so yeah.

Nope.
I only block frenchies that don't take 'no' as an answer.

Dude this is really amazing! I wish the OP would release the skin he made. I'd download it in a heartbeat

[I]Bad news:[/I]
I have lost that skin..

[I]Good news:[/I]
I have got parser for generic VDF.
Now, gotta work on actual designer :dance:

[B]EDIT[/B]
Last night, I have tried to rewrite the skin I had (but now it is more "opaque-like").
Download rewritten skin [URL="https://gist.githubusercontent.com/OmegaExtern/71b205ed9f0494ad4ba8/raw/1a53aa2b677c270fc553f0be69e7653dccda0aaf/SourceScheme.res"]here[/URL]. Enjoy it.
SourceScheme designer will be released soon (as open source and hosted on GitHub), note that it will also support all other Source engine games - not just Garry's Mod!
