Introduction

ULX allows for a high level of customization. Most settings can be changed from XGUI by typing !xgui settings in chat.

Settings that are not customizable in XGUI are covered on this page.

Downloads

Forced downloads allow you to specify paths to files and directories that should be downloaded by the client.

Example contents:

; Lines that start with ; are considered comments
; Add file cheeseman.mp3 under the sound folder:
sound/cheeseman.mp3
; Add all files within the my_music folder inside the sound folder:
sound/my_music

Per-gamemode or per-map configuration

ULX can load different configurations depending on the current gamemode or map.

Create files using the following folder structure:

• <garrysmod>/data/ulx/maps/<mapname>/config.txt
• <garrysmod>/data/ulx/gamemodes/<gamemodename>/config.txt

This feature is compatible with all ULX configuration files (config.txt, downloads.txt, gimps.txt, adverts.txt, votemaps.txt, banreasons.txt, motd.txt and banmessage.txt).

All configurations add to each other except gimps and votemaps, which takes the most specific configuration only.
