(or multiple) you need winrar to extract the addons.Ģ: Types of addons. There are the all famous, Lua addons, witch range from weapons to head bobbing like in Mirrors Edge. There is also skins for gmod, witch you can infact find right here on the site. But for gmod stuff, i suggest -its all gmod based. (well some people upload far cry stuff but i suggest that you dont) There's also backgrounds, witch is a picture that appears when you start the game. (CAUTION!: GMOD.ORG HAS LOTS OF PORN BACKGROUNDS AND CRAPPY BACKGROUNDS!) there's Tag boxes at the top to help you navigate. oh yeah, there's also adv-dupes, witch are contraptions you can spawn anywhere. (Requires you have the advdupelicator addon)ģ: installing. now, most addons tell you where to put it, some dont. So, if it says the addons name and its an addon, put it in the addons folder. If its a map and just contains 1 file (bsp) then drag it into the maps folder. (Path to these is: c:/program files/steam/Steamapps/username/garrysmod/garrysmod.) however, some map rars when you open it, will have multiple folders. When you see this, its kinda an indicator that you got a good map (but just bsp file maps are good too.) for example: Settings, Maps, Materials, Models.

Simpily drag it into the main gmod folder, the one containing all the folders and stuff. (LOTS of folders) some addons also have this, repeat the same thing.Ĥ: other notes.
#GMOD FILE READ REPLACED ADDON FILE RAR#
If an addon doesn't work, Try opening the rar and the addons folder untill you see folders like lua or materials, then drag into main gmod folder. To uninstall addons, take it out of your addons folder, if you dragged it into your gmod folder then backup your addons/maps/saves/dupes and delete (or rename gmod folder like gmod old or LAWL) all contents of gmod folder. When you start gmod, it will replace the files.
