Simply press E on any item in your Spawn Menu to add it to the favorites tab!

You can unfavorite a favorited item the same way.
Favorited items will be saved to the currently selected category. (The folder on the left.)
You may create a category by pressing the "Add Category" button in the bottom left.
Clicking "Save Current Weapon" will allow you to save a weapon with all of it's ArcCW attachments.
Your favorites are saved on disk in "[Garry's Mod Directory]/garrysmod/data/favorites/".

- Weapons
- Props
- Ragdolls
- NPCs
- Vehicles
- Entities
- Dupes
- simfphys Vehicles
- LFS Planes

can you make a purge option like get rid of everything favorited. I redownloaded the game and had a lot of mods deleted that i have to manually unfavor

This addon is a game changer. I love this thing. I do have a request though. Perhaps a function to rename our created categories?
XTREMEVIOLENCEMASTER420  [author] 16 Oct @ 2:25pm 
Anyone having issues where you can't favorite something should try 'favorites_key 15' in the console or set it through the UI. That fixed it for the guy below.

Add me and send me the contents of garrysmod/data/favorites/ as a zip. I'll see if I can reproduce the problem.
Serika 16 Oct @ 12:01pm 
making new categories doesn't work either, and there aren't any errors being printed.
XTREMEVIOLENCEMASTER420  [author] 16 Oct @ 11:51am 
Works for me. Post the console output if there are any errors emitted from favorites.lua. I imagine the problem comes from favoriting something that doesn't cooperate with the menu system or Garry broke some stupid shit again. Does making a new category work?
Serika 16 Oct @ 8:08am 
looks like the addon broke. can anyone contact the author?
Its_Rand 11 Oct @ 2:53pm
