Finding what a gamemode is called

Post by ZestyPretzel »

So i recently got a server and i downloaded all of my stream apps that i need and when i change my game mode to murder it runs and works fine, but i try and change the game mode to prophunt and it doesn't work. I'm thinking that is doesn't work because the name of the file isnt prophunt and its something different. And its not in the garrysmod/gamemodes and neither is murder but murder still runs. so pretty much after this long winded message what i need to know is after i download a game mode where does it go?

You need to download the gamemode then put the folder into garrysmod/gamemodes

didnt work still. does it mean anything that it just goes on sandbox? or is that just because if there is no gamemode it defaults to that

Try changing the game mode in your server.cfg

go to your local GMOD root and find garrysmod/garrysmod/addons. Look around in the addons for the gamemode file

I've downloaded the file myself and extracted it. The filename is called "prop_hunt". Try adding that name in
