Before we begin, unsubscribe from the workshop one, otherwise it can mess it up.

First, you'll have to visit the GitHub link (https://github.com/Livelandr/gmod-doors-death) which is posted in the description and download the code in a ZIP file.

You can do this by clicking the green "Code" button and at the bottom, clicking "Download ZIP".

After you are done, extract the files and put the contents within the respectful files. If the specific file isn't inside the "garrysmod" folder, just drop the folder. (Ex: If there is no "sound" folder, just drop the "sound" folder in that came from the ZIP file.)

Now for the custom message part which is actually pretty simple to understand if you know what you are doing.

Locate the file named "doors_death_config.lua" inside the "lua" folder and open it with Notepad (or any programs which reads text like Microsoft Word.)

Now scroll down for a bit until you reach the section where it checks if an NPC has killed you.

You can use my example code below to copy, paste and edit it.


In the mentioned code above, you'll first need to find which NPC you want for the death screen to make the custom message for it when that NPC kills you.

Normally, when you get killed by an NPC, it would show what the code name for the NPC is as "You died to (npc code name)...".

For example, I wanna make it so it makes a custom message when Angry Munci kills you. (Addon is below.)

So I'll first get the code name of Angry Munci above and it's "npc_angry_munci".

Once I have the code name, I will put the name inside the quotation marks after the "elseif attacker:GetClass() ==" so it would make something like this:


Now, you can go ahead and make your own custom messages! Simply just edit the Text 1, Text 2 and Text 3 to your own messages!

You can also change how long the text will last by simply changing the number next to "time =" and it in second, for those wondering.

In the end, this is what my code look's like if anyone wanna copy and paste it for Angry Munci.


It's also possible to add and remove the next text. Just remember to not forget to add a comma at the end if it's not in the last line (and remove it if it's in the last line.)

Also, one thing I forgot to mention, if you wanna go to the next line in the text, type "/n" so the text on the right will be in the next lane.

Once done, you can save and you're all done and ready to go! Boot up your game, get killed by the NPC and it will show up!
