Sorry for creating a issue for this but I cannot find any documentation to install EasyChat. Do I download the project zip, extract it, and place it into my addons or lua folder? I also downloaded the required DLLs, placed them in lua/bin and this message still pops up. And if I am using the github version, do I unsubscribe from the workshop version?

Thank you!

EasyChat only ships the Linux build of slog, I'm assuming based on the screenshot you're running it from Windows in which you'll need gm_sourcenet instead.

Otherwise you can just ignore the message if you don't wish to run console commands from chat.

@Cynosphere Ok, I will not use slog and I am using windows.

Is this good now? And do I need to also unsubscribe from the workshop addon as well?

Unless something has changed in the half a year plus I've been gone from the game, I think you need to move the bin folder to the lua folder in GarrysMod/garrysmod

@Cynosphere Why does the addon now say "Running unknown outdated version" if I use the Github version?

Cynosphere commented 1 year ago

Because you used the zip file and not checking it out through Git.

I see. Thank you!
