gmod-fakeoverlay

Prank your players with fake loading/disconnect screen. F-U-N! FUN ^ 2!

When admins be 😈, others be 😆, and the victim be 😓.

I have written this in a very very short period of time (< 48 hours), so if you find any bugs (even a typo), please submit it here!

Features

• Show fake overlay with custom message to any player
• Grained control (callbacks when victim receives/closes fake overlay on both serverside and clientside) / 3rd party addons support
• ??? (request new features via issues tracking page)

Getting Started

It is simple. Clone/Download a copy of the master branch into ./Steam/steamapps/common/GarrysMod/garrysmod/addons/gmod-fakeoverlay folder (git will automatically create gmod-fakeoverlay folder for you; if you don't use git then create the folder yourself, how you name the addon folder does not really matter). This is how the folder structure/hierarchy tree should look like:

addons
└───gmod-fakeoverlay
    ├───lua
    │   └───autorun
    │       └───client
    │       └───server
    └───materials
        └───fakeover

Usage

By default, any admin on the server will be granted to run/execute the sv_send_fakeover console command. For more information, submit help sv_send_fakeover in Console.
