Description

Opal, a new escape screen, is the first in a new collection developed by Richard known as "Gemerosity" in June 2016. This new Escape Screen includes the complete menu which existed in the default Garry's Mod escape system, as well as the ability to customize the entire menu and add any number of new items as well. Opal also includes brand new sounds, side-panel with animations, and a server connection screen which gives players the ability to join other network-related servers straight from the menu itself. Perhaps the biggest feature of Opal is the new "Standings" UI, which will give players information based on their current status. The Standings feature includes things such as Health, Armor, Pointshop 1 & 2, Advanced DarkRP Leveling System, the DarkRP XP System, UTime support, and various other items; more to be added at a later date.

This script includes a new feature - Live Wallpaper. Just as you'd see on Android phones, the wallpaper itself is a .webm file (movie) and applies itself to the back panel. You do have the option to disable this and use regular wallpaper if you'd like.

FastDL / Workshop

My scripts come pre-configured to handle FastDL. However, in the event that you cannot use FastDL on your server; I also upload Workshop items that contain all of the resources you'll need. Simply subscribe to the workshop item below, and add it to your server's collection. Players will automatically download what they need when they connect to your server.

I want to get you taken care of as quickly as possible so that you can enjoy the script, and not waiting on a simple reply from me. You may also add me on steam if you need help, but please make sure that you are adding me for support on this script.
