Description

If Tripperful contacts me to take this down or edit this addon I will happily oblige, I take no credit for this addon

Iconic Weapon Selector, A fully customizable weapon selection menu with in-game icon editor that works for any gamemode.


If you're tired of icons in the weapon selection menu
looking all different and authors not paying enough
attention to make them good quality, this is for you!
- Tripperful


  • Replaces the default garry's mod weapon selector.
  • Works for MOST gamemodes, guaranteed to work on any that are Sandbox based.
  • Done are the days of AutoIcons, With IWS you have the ability to create custom high-quality icons.
  • Client-defined icon sizes.
  • Capture any icon in any scene with any number of props/ragdolls/whatever.
  • Streamlined icon creation, uploading and downloading.
  • Icons are updated in real time for all players. no reconnect required.
  • Icons are stored on imgur, not occupying your precious hard-drive space.
  • Import/export with ability to edit data manually (json).
  • Fast-switch support.
  • Highly customizable UI theme (must be done in iconic_config.lua).
  • Highly configurable.
  • Language translations support, with French, Russian, Turkish, German, Danish, Polish and Spanish supported other than English.
  • High performance and responsiveness.
  • Smooth UI animations.


This addon should be compatible with any weapon base or item, It has been tested with Arc9, ArcCW, TFA and MORE!


This a multiplayer addon first and foremost, meaning a hosted server. BUT it will work in singleplayer, so everyone should be good. Singleplayer may have some bugs but otherwise it works 100%.

For Server Hosts/Customization Settings
Either extract the addon the traditional way or download the addon in it's entirety off our repository: https://github.com/Mingooberus/IconicWeaponSelector
  • Put iconic folder from the archive into your addons folder.
  • Edit iconic/lua/iconic_config.lua to your preferences.
  • Icon settings are stored in iconic_icons table in sv.db
  • Icons themselves are stored on imgur, requiring your players to have internet connection to download them.
  • Icon file cache is stored in garrysmod/data/iconic/icons.
  • Import/export payloads are stored in garrysmod/data/iconic/payloads.

for some reason they just don't work when i make the image smaller, acts like nothing is there. when i make them large enough, they just take up my whole screen and just overcrowd the selector
