NDesc is a tool designed for Garry’s Mod servers, offering advanced features to customize RP descriptions. It allows administrators to create and add detailed descriptions to items, entities, vehicles, npcs, and characters, enriching the roleplay experience.

With NDesc, descriptions are not limited to basic summaries: they can include specific details about the appearance, characteristics, or history of in-game elements. Perfect for RP servers that wish to offer a carefully crafted and consistent immersion, this tool adapts to all playstyles and gives admins great customization freedom.

Whether it’s for weapons, players and their various characters, armor, or everyday items, NDesc allows for clear and centralized management of descriptions, providing players with an immersive environment rich in detail.

This addon is aimed at all roleplay (RP) enthusiasts who want to add narrative depth to their gameplay while providing an efficient way to inform users about the specific use of each item.

🧩 GMod addons compatible with NDesc

NDesc can be combined with other addons already in use, enriching and enhancing each other. This video shows an example with 6 more of my Gmod scripts: https://youtu.be/xsKEHD7434Y

1. Gmod Advanced Character Creator System: Compatibility work has been done with this addon, allowing RP descriptions for each created character.

2. Gmod Advanced Inventory System: Compatibility work has been done with this addon, allowing users to read item descriptions directly from the inventory.

3. Nor Admin Mod for GMod - Administration System: Although there are commands to open it, Nor Admin contains a menu with a list of Osgmod addons, and the button provides simplified access to the NDesc menu.

4. Gmod Advanced View Creator: The third-person view system in this addon automatically adjusts when reading an object description.

5. Gmod Items Packs + Spawnmenu: Adding items to the list with descriptions is simple. Additionally, the Items Pack spawnmenu allows adding items and weapons to the description database management menu without having them appear on the ground. This provides great convenience while allowing a wide variety of items to be added.

6. Gmod Loot Furniture Designer: NDesc will add the option to read item descriptions from the object menu stored in the furniture, adding this feature to the lootable furniture system.
