SourceForts

Garry's Mod general
#1

I’m excited to announce that I am recreating the old Half-Life 2 mod, SourceForts, in Garry’s Mod! This is by far my favorite Half-Life 2 mod as it is tons of fun and my friends and I have played this for hours on end. Unfortunately it died a long time ago and while it is still playable, it has been forgotten. I figured that perhaps I could revive it by making it on GMod.

If you’ve never heard of SourceForts or forgot how awesome it was then look at this stuff:

Info
This is a recreation of the SourceForts mod in Garry’s Mod. It is intended to be like the mod as much as possible. No new HUD, GUI, or gameplay changes; just straight up SourceForts. This gamemode will only be playable on SourceForts maps. All the content for this gamemode will be on the workshop.

Pictures!!!

FINALLY, SOMETHING THATS NOT A RP GAMEMODE!

Looks really nice, keep up the good work!

#3

I’d gladly host a server with this gamemode.

#4

So what will it be called? G-Forts? Source Forts 2? Or just take the mod’s name?

#5

Most likely just SourceForts or maybe something like SourceForts: Recoded. I want people to know this is just like the original game.

#6

It should be SourceForts REDUX

#7

Will the game mode be released for the public?

#8

Hopefully not, so we won’t see all these popping up :).

On topic:
Looks nice, any server release date OP?

#9

Would defiantly be an interesting gamemode. I will surely host it when its released.

#10

SourceForts G might be a good enough descriptor.

#11

Ah the memories, I’m surprised nobody has done this sooner to be honest.

#12

I think something similar already exists, but it’s just not the same.

#13

Of course something similar existed, can’t remember the name tho

#14

It was a fretta gamemode, called CaptureTheFlag.

#15

That’s not nearly the same (except you can also build a base just like in SourceForts, but it doesn’t look like that from a quick look at the code.) I think what I meant was called FortWars or something similar.

#16

FortWarsX?

#17

fortwars??

ahh i remember darklandservers

#18

I was working on a Sourceforts gamemode not so long ago, I just got busy with a other project. Also, some other person I think was working on one. Anyways it’s been done before, just not many people know about them.

#19

Updated op with pictures. Will be doing a beta in the next few days.

#20

I’m hoping this isn’t a private gamemode, although I’ve been wanting to see this for a long time.
