OK in this tutorial we will be making a Derma Menu start up when you (And others) join the game. This script will be easy to edit! So enjoy!

Here is the script first.

P.S. I will be telling you where we our putting in the gamemode files but i will not be telling you how to create a gamemode. If you're interested in creating a gamemode!

init.lua

 
----
 
AddCSLuaFile( "cl_init.lua" )
AddCSLuaFile( "shared.lua" )
 
include( 'shared.lua' )
 
 
function GM:PlayerInitialSpawn(ply)
self.BaseClass:PlayerInitialSpawn(ply) -- don't know if you need baseclass here but it couldn't hurt
umsg.Start("call_vgui", ply)
umsg.End()
end
 
--And to set a player's model:
 
function GM:PlayerSpawn(ply)
self.BaseClass:PlayerSpawn(ply)
ply:SetModel("models/Player/Group01/male_01.mdl") --Model you want when you spawn.
end
 
 
/*---------------------------------------------------------
   Name: gamemode:PlayerLoadout( )
   Desc: Give the player the default spawning weapons/ammo
---------------------------------------------------------*/
function GM:PlayerLoadout( pl )
 
	pl:GiveAmmo( 27,	"Pistol", 		true )
 
	pl:Give( "cse_glock" )
 
end

Ok and here is our cl_init

include( 'shared.lua' )
 
 
 
 function ShowTeamMenu()
  local DermaPanel = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
  DermaPanel:SetPos( 50,50 )
  DermaPanel:SetSize( 200, 250 )
  DermaPanel:SetTitle( "Choose Your Team" ) // Name of Fram
  DermaPanel:SetVisible( true )
  DermaPanel:SetDraggable( false ) //Can the player drag the frame /True/False
  DermaPanel:ShowCloseButton( false ) //Show the X (Close button) /True/False
  DermaPanel:MakePopup()
 
  local DermaButton = vgui.Create( "DButton" )
  DermaButton:SetParent( DermaPanel ) // Set parent to our "DermaPanel"
  DermaButton:SetText( "Combine" )
  DermaButton:SetPos( 25, 50 )
  DermaButton:SetSize( 150, 50 )
  DermaButton.DoClick = function ()
   RunConsoleCommand( "kill" ) // What happens when you press the button
  end 
 
  local DermaButton = vgui.Create( "DButton" )
  DermaButton:SetParent( DermaPanel ) // Set parent to our "DermaPanel"
  DermaButton:SetText( "Zombie" )
  DermaButton:SetPos( 25, 300 )
  DermaButton:SetSize( 150, 50 )
  DermaButton.DoClick = function ()
   RunConsoleCommand( "kill" ) // What happens when you press the button
  end 
 
 end
 usermessage.Hook( "call_vgui", ShowTeamMenu )
 
// Clientside only stuff goes here

OK here is how everything works.

the cl_init is for client, so what that means is that client (meaning the players computer) will get the data not everyone at the same time. Example for noobs: If a player types something everyone will get to read it. It sends the words to the server. if the player dies the server sent data to a client. the player who died.

Get it? If not look at more tutorials.

   Here's something that might help you to understabd Chair_Throwing_SWEP

OK! First thing we will learn (That we will need to know.

 
ply:SetModel("models/Player/Group01/male_01.mdl") --Model you want when you spawn.
 

This is in the init.lua file, AKA the server.

Change the

models/Player/Group01/male_01.mdl

to the model you want. like if i want a combine solder i will use the combines solders directory. where the .mdl file is at. Which is

models/Player/combine_soldier.mdl

---

Ok that's all you really need to know in that file.

The next one is a lot..... MORE!

First off, I will post the code with // on the side of the line, that will tell you what that line is for. ^_^

 
function ShowTeamMenu() //This is our function, everything under it defines the function we just created.
  local DermaPanel = vgui.Create( "DFrame" ) //This creates the Derma Panel (Simple)
  DermaPanel:SetPos( 50,50 ) // This is where our Panel will be placed at.
  DermaPanel:SetSize( 200, 250 ) // This is the size of our panel
  DermaPanel:SetTitle( "Choose Your Team" ) // Name of the Frame
  DermaPanel:SetVisible( true ) // Don't worry about this leave as true
  DermaPanel:SetDraggable( false ) //Can the player drag the frame /True/False
  DermaPanel:ShowCloseButton( true ) //Show the X (Close button) /True/False
  DermaPanel:MakePopup() //Creates/Finishes the frame
 

OK The next one I will tell you is just the button, the one we are creating we will have two. They both will do the same thing, i was just asked "How do i add two?" I will explain the same way.

 
local DermaButton = vgui.Create( "DButton" ) //Creates the button/looks
  DermaButton:SetParent( DermaPanel ) // Set parent to our "DermaPanel"
  DermaButton:SetText( "Combine" ) // Name of our Button
  DermaButton:SetPos( 25, 50 ) //Position of our button
  DermaButton:SetSize( 150, 50 ) //Size of our button
  DermaButton.DoClick = function () // When we click it does...
   RunConsoleCommand( "kill" ) // What happens when you press the button
  end
 

Now before i end this i will tell you where to add you commands.

If you do not want the button to kill you when you press it, take this line off.

 
RunConsoleCommand( "kill" ) // What happens when you press the button
 

Then add your own.

Now i will post another button under our own it looks like this.

 
  local DermaButton = vgui.Create( "DButton" )
  DermaButton:SetParent( DermaPanel ) // Set parent to our "DermaPanel"
  DermaButton:SetText( "Combine" )
  DermaButton:SetPos( 25, 50 )
  DermaButton:SetSize( 150, 50 )
  DermaButton.DoClick = function ()
   RunConsoleCommand( "kill" )
  end
 
  local DermaButton = vgui.Create( "DButton" )
  DermaButton:SetParent( DermaPanel ) // Set parent to our "DermaPanel"
  DermaButton:SetText( "Zombie" )
  DermaButton:SetPos( 25, 300 )
  DermaButton:SetSize( 150, 50 )
  DermaButton.DoClick = function ()
   RunConsoleCommand( "kill" )
  end 
 end
 

Now then they both do the same thing but they have two different names and they our in different places.

Like before change the.

 
RunConsoleCommand( "kill" )
 

To your own.

LAST THING!

 
usermessage.Hook( "call_vgui", ShowTeamMenu )
 

Brings up our VGUI DERMA!

Hope you enjoy this, I will edit it and add new things.
