Hi. I've owned Garry's Mod for about 2 years now and I have never played a multiplayer match. I don't play often because I don't know how most of the stuff works but I know how to download and install basic addons.
How do I connect to a multiplayer game and how do I know what downloads I need? I saw my friend play something called trouble in a terrorist town or something and it looked like a lot of fun. I've played like 2 online games but a lot of the stuff other people were using just said ERROR on it because I guess I don't have some of the addons they use?
Please use layman's terms I'm not very computer/programming savvy!! D:
Go to the main menu, click the multiplayer button, join a server.
but everything is ERRORs and pink/black checkerboard
:\
Do you have CS:S? And make sure you get PHX3, its practically required. Unless you are lucky enough to find a vanilla server.
You need:
HL2
HL2: EP1
HL2: EP2
CSS
PHX and
Wiremod.
That's all you really need to play gmod online
Link to your account, sounds kinda like you're a :pirate:
errr I have gmod, tf2, and portal...
i think i'll get css and hl2 but do I really need HL2 ep 1/2?
also, a lot of the things i got with phx3 are errors
PHX3 and Wiremod are the most widely-used GMod addons. The former is a large and versatile model pack, the latter is a sort of ingame programming system that uses a lot of custom models.
...unfortunately they both require the use of SVN, which might be confusing for people who are not so good with computers.
Here is the SVN guide for wiremod:

and for PHX3:

You should probably get Episode 2 at the very least, GMod comes with some stuff that requires content from it (flechette gun, hunter NPC etc.)
okay, thanks for the help guys
