Gmod Server Tutorial

This tut will teach you how to make a Garrys mod 10 server

0.1. Remember to open a port in your router, you HAVE to. 1. Download HLDS Update Tool if you didnt already here: http://storefront.steampowered.com/download/hldsupdatetool.exe 2. Go into C:\ (I'm using C:\ because it's the default Drive but change it if you need) 3. Make a folder named srcds 4. Run HLDS Update Tool and install it into C:\srcds 5. Open Command Prompt from Start>All Programs>Applications 6. put the following: a) cd C:\srcds b) hldsupdatetool c) hldsupdatetool -command update -game garrysmod -dir C:\srcds 7. Wait while it installs 8. EDIT:

Since people are rating me 5s for no reason and crap, i got rated a poor spelling and confusing for hosting it on rapidshare? come on, if your to lazy to dl it from there i hope your happy.

Open notepad and paste this in it:

@echo off cls title Garrysmod Server Watch :srcds echo (%time%) srcds started. start /wait C:/srcds/orangebox/srcds.exe -console -game garrysmod +map gm_flatgrass +maxplayers 16 echo (%time%) WARNING: srcds closed or crashed, restarting goto srcds

Click save as and make sure to save is as All Files, where it says Text Document, change that to All Files

Then name it GmodServer.bat MAKE SURE TO ADD THE .BAT

OR

You can always go the "easy way" and download it from here:

http://rapidshare.com/files/169021593/GmodServer.bat

  1. It is set on gm_flatgrass and 16 players but if you want to change it right click on it and click edit
  2. Run gmodserver.bat and your server is up!

To install mods install them into c:\srcds\orange box\garrysmod To change the name type hostname servername in the server when it loads

    I found this tutorial as clear as the one in the WIKI http://wiki.garrysmod.com/?title=DedicatedServerSetup#Gettingstartedwith_HLDSUpdatetool

    Therefore you deserve an 9.7 keep up the good work. Ignore everyone that rated you poor for rapid share. They didnt need to follow your directions they choose d to.

    Posted by Point Blank actualy its not, did any1 else care? NO so seriously, dont be so picky and theres notin wrong with rapid sahre, the file took 2 seconds to dl Pros: Hands, you never know when you might need a Gmod server. Cons: Rapidshare = Grrrrr Improvements: Host GmodServer.bat on a different hosting sight. Notes: Grr
    Uh, u rated my tut a 6.5 cuz its not detailed? and that i hosted the file in rapidshare? thats the stupidest thing ive ever heard. IDC bout the detail just the rapidshare thing is stupid
    Actually, the rapidshare thing is very important, FYI, rapidshare sucks balls...
    no its not, no1 else cared and it took 2 seconds to dl so dont be so picky and a cry baby and deal with it, im not asking u to rate me on wut hoster.

    it doesnt take 2 secs to dl, it takes freakin years Bcause you have to wait for rapidshare to LET you download it. If you're some moron who thinks that EVERYONE has a premium account because EVERYONE is stupid enough to pay those mofoz at rapidshare, then you have some serious issues. I rate um as I see um, If you want to be picky about it, I could rate you lower...

    i dont have a premium account dumbass, i just have a free acc so seriously, who really cares man, its a good tut and thats all that matters and i think its better waiting 60 seconds to dl it then not dling it at all.
