Gamemode not loading

[HeavyMtl123]

I've created a gamemode, all functions in there to actually work, but when i select it from the drop down menu of the Create Multiplayer tab, and click create, i join, but it creates a sandbox server instead, WTH?

You need an info.txt for your gamemode, goes inside the (gamemode name) folder in gmod/gamemodes.

[HeavyMtl123]

I have got that.

Theres probbably an error... or something, check console and test gamemode_reload

[HeavyMtl123]

Here is the error

Couldn't include file 'Garry Company/gamemode/init.lua' (File not found)
**********************************************

There was a problem opening the gamemode file 'Garry Company/gamemode/init.lua'

Take the space out of the folder name

[Padisha]

You can't put spaces in the gamemode folder.

Thats what I just said....

Thank you King Flawless it worked.

But now i'm getting this:

ERROR: GAMEMODE:'PlayerInitialSpawn' Failed: GarryCompany/gamemode/init.lua:23: attempt to call a string value

If you need the line of code for that, please ask :3

[|King Flawless|]

paste code

[HeavyMtl123]

I'll give you the whole function.

[lua]function GM:PlayerInitialSpawn( ply )
self.BaseClass:PlayerInitialSpawn ( ply )
file.Write( "Garry Company/ServerPlayers.txt", "/nPlayerName: " ..ply:Nick() "/nPlayer SteamID: " ..ply:SteamID() "/nPlayer Kills: " ..ply:Frags() "/nPlayer Deaths: " ..ply:Deaths() )
if ply:IsSuperAdmin() then
ply:SetModel( "models/player/fallout_3/tesla_power_armor.mdl" )
ply:PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "GCompany: Welcome to the server I recognise you as a Super Admin /nName:" ..ply:Nick() "/nRank: Super Admin /nSteamID:" ..ply:UniqueID() )
ply:SetName( "(Super)" ..ply:Nick() )
elseif
ply:IsAdmin() then
ply:SetModel( "models/player/fallout_3/t51b.mdl" )
ply:PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "GCompany: Welcome to the server I recognise you as an Admin /nName:" ..ply:Nick() "/nRank: Admin /nSteamID:" ..ply:UniqueID() )
ply:SetName( "(Admin)" ..ply:Nick() )
else
ply:SetModel( "models/player/charple01.mdl" )
ply:PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTTALK, "GCompany: Welcome," ..ply:Nick() " to the GCompany Server, have fun, and obey the rules" )
ply:SetName( "(Guest)" ..ply:Nick() )
end[/lua]

You are forgetting ..'s all over your code, make sure you put it like this

local examplestring = "string" .. ply:SteamID() .. " more string" .. ply:Name() .. " The end."
EDIT: Except if you do it at the end ofcourse:
local lastexample = "My SteamID: " .. ply:SteamID()[/QUOTE]

Thankyou, i thought you just put the ".." before the ply:blahblahblah stuff.
Thanks for telling me

You place it between everything you want to contatenate into a single string.
