Gamemode Content
Gamemode content such as maps, models and sounds should be
placed in gamemodes/content/ folder. (ie gamemodes/content/models/..).
Gamemode Folder
To create a new gamemode you need to create a new folder in
the gamemodes folder. The folder should take the name of your gamemode. Inside
of that folder there should be a text file named whatever your folder is.
For instance, if my gamemode was called
"SuperKillers", I would create a folder in
"garrysmod/gamemodes/" called "superkillers". Then inside
that folder I would create a text file called "superkillers.txt".
Note that in previous versions of Garry's Mod this file was
always called "info.txt" - but was changed in Version 13 to reflect
the changes to the content.
Gamemode Text File
The .txt file you created needs to be a keyvalues file.
"superkillers"
{
"base" "base"
"title" "Super Killers"
"maps" "^sk_"
"menusystem" "1"
"workshopid" "15895"
"settings"
{
1
{
"name" "sk_maxfrags"
"text" "Max Frags"
"help" "The maxiumum number of
frags before a map change"
"type" "Numeric"
"default" "20"
}
2
{
"name" "sk_grenades"
"text" "Allow Grenades"
"help" "If enabled then
grenades are enabled"
"type" "CheckBox"
"default" "1"
}
}
}
key description
base The gamemode
you're deriving from. This will usually be base or sandbox.
title The 'nice'
title of your gamemode. Can contain spaces and capitals.
maps The map filter
for your gamemode. This is used to correctly categorise maps in the map
selector. This should only be set if the maps are unique to your gamemode.
menusystem Include
and set to 1 if this gamemode should be selectable from the main menu
workshopid Optional.
If your gamemode is on Workshop then this should be the workshopid of the file.
(You won't have a workshopid until you upload - so you will need to set this in
an update)
settings See
Below
Settings
The settings table allows you to create server configuration
convars for your gamemode. It's completely optional. Your text file doesn't
have to have a settings section.
In previous versions of GMod this section used to have its
own file, in gamemode/<gamemode>/content/settings/server_settings/. It
was moved to the root folder to decrease load times.
These settings are configurable in the main menu in GMod.
Each entry has a number of fields.
key description
name The name of the
convar
text The text to
show in game to describe this convar
help The help
text to show on the convar (in the console)
type Either Text,
CheckBox or Numeric. These are case-sensitive!
default The default
value for the convar
