If you're avid on jumping from server-to-server, you download shit from the server and it's being kept in a file.
I'll tell you how to clear these files
head over to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\downloads\server
CTRL+A (Selects all files)
Hit your delete button.
Click 'Okay" and delete everything
Enjoy that WONDERFUL storage space
I just cleared like 120 GB of storage space on my hard drive because of this, and I thought to let people know about it
There really needs to be an option to just clean out gmas in that folder if they aren't used after X days
It's crazy how tucked away this is. I stumbled on this by accident like 2 years ago as I always wondered why there was like 200 GB of storage being used that I didn't know the location of
There’s two more spots imo that are also downloads and cached Lua files...can’t remember the locations off the top of my head
if you find the locations I'll add it to the OP
Alright one of them is
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\download
That’s where a bunch of raw files are, maybe from FastDL? I don’t know for sure. And
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\lua\cache or cache\lua, can’t remember which.
That one shouldn’t take up a lot of space, but there a lot of individual files. I had 22.5k files in that one at one point.
