Title: How to Install 64-Bit Garrys Mod (Gmod)
Post by: Bryantdl7 on 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 :)
