@everyone

yes, its broken. i unfortunately don't really have the time or the motivation to fix it. I'll be updating the description to reflect that fact pretty soon; if not take down the addon entirely. that said, this was a pretty simple script edit iirc, and it should, in theory, be fairly easy for somebody else to replicate in a way that works better.

it is broken.

Please update this it looks so awesome

@!!PleaseCleanMyteeth!!

-_- that very obviously has nothing to do with this addon. why would an addon for spawn icons do that?

Yeah, just wanted to inform you. Freeze a ragdoll then push against it it will freakout. :D Kinda funny, nice feature!

@!!PleaseCleanMyTeeth!!

tbh im suprised it didnt break much sooner. this addon was never that well made tbh

Broken by newest update.

@SuperDean

oh, i see...sorry; thought you meant something else this whole time.

still; i dont think i can fix it, this addon is old and i havent worked on it for a very long time.

im saying the media player/xplay uses the same icons as the spawn menu so that is why it gets effected (it lets you chose what the model of the media player is)

@SuperDean

i literally dont even know what your talking about dude. Again, it has nothing to do with this addon whatsoever.

this addon makes the spawn icons 3d, thats all it does. it has nothing to do with media players.

you can only chose between that one and the media player, also i know the maker of playx and he is STILL waiting for chromium to be released out of beta (its been in beta for almost 10 years) and once it is out he will update it

@SuperDean

well, idk what to tell you then. my code should literally not do that; as it isnt even the same file at all.

just dont use this addon then i guess....its old and crappy anyhow

plus it also made the 2 that i can chose 3d

it only happens when i have this addon installed, i removed this addon and it was fixed

@SuperDean

no. thats probably a completely unrelated issue. my code doesnt modify the main menu code in any way whatsoever; only the spawn menu icons, so if you are unable to select more than 2 players thats something unrelated to this addon.

makes it so you cant chose any but two xplayers

Even though when you use the Spawnmenu it'll make things slower, It's still a Pretty Good Add-on and a Very Nice Design, Why isn't this Popular?

@hyperix it depends on how good a pc you have, but yes, to some degree the spawn menu might be slower. it depends.

does it impact perfomance

@choom no. the HUD uses pre-defined images the same way as npcs and entities do. see my reply to superdean for a further explanation.

@SuperDean

probably not. ents and npcs use a different system than the normal props, so it would be significantly more difficult to create 3d icons of their models without severely lagging the game (even moreso than this already does because i would in essense have to spawn every single entity and npc somewhere off-map, grab their model, and only then could i un-spawn them and render the icon.)

can you do one or add one for entites and npcs?

This is really cool

can you make spinning icons for the hud?

UPDATE: I was planning to eventually make it so the spawnicons only show 3d when you hover over them; but i as of yet havent found a good waay to do that; so this addon will remain abandoned for the time being

Yeah, that would save alot of Processing power and just look nicer on the eyes.

@[ NRPN ] Exeros

I have concidered it; and i might. im not sure though.

Could you make it so they only spin if you hover over it?

@Versgon

That is true; especially with a large amount of props. there isnt much i can do about this.

When I open props menu, game's freeze takes more time, than earlier. This addon reccomend high PC.
(sorry for english I'm russian)

Yeah. thanks you for addon this is so amezing!

@FlamingFox5
no, would be cool if it was though.

yo this is kickass, is this possible for weapon icons?

@Gravity Cat
They spin for me. cant reproduce this issue.

@Slater should be able to spam pops just fine; but if not you can still right-click and click "spawn with toolgun" i believe.

Model names to be fixed later maybe. a work-around is copying the model to clipboard and pasting in console/chat/wherever you can see it

Looks nice, but can't spam props and no model names.

huh... neat

Ah. I remember this back in the good ol days of Garry's Mod. Thank you for making these, it's always nice to get a good hit of nostalgia

@Cavou
im not sure; but yes, there is a little bit of a hit.

@Souper Marilogi
there is; its the same way you'd resize in the normal game: right-click, click resize.

Think you could add an option to make the icons smaller?

Amazingly done! I'm assuming there's a performance hit? How much of a performance hit is expected?

Reminds me of good ol gmod 10 spawn menu icons. Nice work.

in venturians old gmod videos. i noticed the playermodels in the pm selector was spinning like this mod. maybe you could update this to add the pm selector to do the same thing?

reminds me of the PS1 and PS2 savegame icons how they would be like this

@Fennecai stupid keyboard just called me an "i diotr" and made me look like one.

@zaebis
i'll probably update this to add hovering then; and i'll do an alternative tot he icone diotr that slims it down to just the skin/bodygroup changes and cuts the rest out.
@zorich_michael
probably not but that would be cool.
@Mailer
tooltip being gone is a mistake; not a feature. if more people start complaining about the default 128, then i'll change that too.

For everyone else who might soon comment though; please keep in mind that this addon is mostly just a random thing i decided to do; and might not be updated any further aside from some critical issues.

Now in 3D and SPININNG!

This is a great rewrite, but I seriously think it could be a huge benefit to have some convars to manipulate the spawn menu more. For example, I am not a huge fan of the 128 x 128 resolution on every item, and neither did I necessarily want the tooltip on every item gone.

Thankfully for me I can just download and edit the script and fix these things for myself (which I am sure you won't mind in the slightest), but a lot of people aren't going to know the ins and outs of doing these changes themselves so I highly suggest you look into adding more customization, because this rewrite could really be the beginning of something awesome.

woah

whats next
EVERY menu being 3d even butotns and stuff? XD

yeah about hovering i just uncommented line connected with and seems it works, but you need to make icon editor work because people may want change skins or bodygroups in spawn menu
