openMenu not working

[Tally]

Why not just use the quickmessage menu to open the admin menu?

execKey "8" { close quickmessage; open admin }

Then, monitor if the admin menu is open:

if( menu == "admin")
{
	if(self getGuid() == 0)
	{
		self playLocalSound("granted");
		self openMenu(game["menu_admin"]);
	}
	else
	{
		self iprintlnbold("^1Access Denied!");
		self playLocalSound("denied");
	}
			
	continue;
}

Seems a lot easier than all this messing around trying to get openMenu() to work.

NB - make sure your admin.menu has the menu item name of "admin". The item script name is what the engine looks for. Not the name of the menu file.

Are you sure the menu you're calling this from is the quickmessage menu?

Also, are you sure the menu is precached? have you checked the client's console for any errors concerning .menu files?

Yes, its preached and its called from wm_quickmessage.menu
Its working if i use:
execKey "8" { close quickmessage; open admin }
But its not working if i use
execKey "8" { close quickmessage; scriptMenuResponse "admin" }
There are no errors in the console and yes i'm using developer 1

	else
	{
		self iprintlnbold("^1Access Denied!");
		self playLocalSound("denied");
	}
			
	continue;
}

Of course i could use it like this but i want that it cant be opened if you dont have the right guid.
