Guides/Info / How to delete workshop cached ...
Last post by Bryantdl7 - March 03, 2023, 11:34:03 AM
Looks like to nuke stuff you need to kill three different things now

1.
/steamapps/common/GarrysMod/garrysmod/cache/workshop/2.
/steamapps/workshop/appworkshop_4000.acf3.
/steamapps/workshop/content/4000/4. Quit Steam or restart your computer

If you miss one of the three workshop corrupts and is unfixable until you get all three removed...


This is useful if you're ever trying to unsubscribe from all addons, or if you have a corrupted cache file.

Last post by Bryantdl7 - October 31, 2022, 04:56:22 PM
I just reinstalled Gmod on linux and was having a super hard time getting fonts to work.

To make them work, all you need to do is go to https://github.com/solsticegamestudios/GModCEFCodecFix , download the linux program, chmod it to 700, then run ./the-program-name

Old news / 3/23/2021 - What's New
Last post by Bryantdl7 - March 23, 2021, 01:45:01 PM
It has been a few months since we did the weekly events, and I would like to get that going again.

Can you please take a moment and post any ideas you may have on this discussion I have on the forums? It doesn't need to just be Garry's Mod, I am up for taking some creative suggestions!

Post your ideas here: https://darkstorm.cc/forum/index.php?topic=4142

Thank you!



======Actual Reason for a news posting======

Linkjay

As some of you have seen, Linkjay has sadly retired as many others do once they go through the lovely journey of college / life. Make sure to thank him for all his hard work over the last six years if you see him around. Link was a valuable team member, and his insane coding skills will be truly missed. Guess I need to start doing all the big background work again :P


What else is new with Darkstorm?

I have finally finished getting a lot of background work done on the server, which will allow me to host other types of servers much easier than in the past. Options such as Space Engineers, Minecraft, etc. are all easily within range. If anyone has suggestions about what they would like to see, make sure to post your suggestions on the website, or message me or one of the other members of management.

I'll be honest since summer I have been a little quiet again and not doing too much, so that's one of the reasons I am looking to you, the community, for feedback on how I can make Darkstorm more fun not only for you guys, but also for me so I can try and get back into video games lol.


Thanks to everyone for sticking around this long, seven years and counting, lets keep it up and keep Darkstorm great!

Announcements / Backcats - Farewell and Good L...
Last post by Bryantdl7 - May 13, 2020, 12:25:29 PM
Hey everyone,


It saddens me to write this, but Backcats, has decided to retire from Darkstorm. I have let him know that he is always welcome to come back to his rank of manager, and our community.

Backcats has been with us since the beginning, starting on our server over six years ago, far exceeding anyone else other than myself. Backcats has helped our community grow tremendously, and the gratitude we all feel for his improvements to the community are immense. He has been an excellent team player, and most importantly a great friend.

Backcats is now set to the rank of retired staff.


Thank you again for all you have done Backcats - I cannot say enough good about what you have done for Darkstorm.

It will be sad to see you go, but you are always welcome back should you change your mind!


- Bryant

Guides/Info / How to Install 64-Bit Garrys M...
Last post by Bryantdl7 - April 27, 2020, 09:47:38 PM
Since it seems there are no easy guides available on this, I figured I would make one for everyone. This guide was made on Kubuntu 18.04, however, it should apply to most platforms.



Step 1. Open Steam

Step 2.
Go to the Library tab which has all of your games


Step 3. Right-click Garrys Mod, and choose properties


Step 4. This will open up your in-game settings like so. Navigate to the tab called BETAS


Step 5. Choose the beta which starts with x86-64. The wording will differ depending on your platform, but it must start with x86-64.


While you are indeed by the definition of steam installing a beta, this is by far the most reliable branch of Garrys Mod. You will encounter some weird things at times, but mostly if you are a sorry fool like me using Linux :)


Alright, everyone, that concludes how to get 64-Bit Garry's Mod installed! If you found this guide helpful, make sure to check out our servers!
