Title: GMod Servers
Post by: tSwitch on January 31, 2009, 09:33:22 PM
Alright, since a lot of us play, I was considering getting RMRK its own GMod 10 server.
but, I can't afford it alone, cuz I have my own life to pay for (car, food, gas, etc...)

so...how many here are willing and able to donate on a regular basis to help keep a 8-10 slot GMod server going?
(and/or play Gmod)

I'd be able to donate, probably would do so every now and then. It'd be passworded, for sure. Keep the fages out.

I'd donate if I had a way to do so.

It'd be better if it were passworded. Servers are always better without the minges, the trolls, and the 10 year olds.

Also, we wouldn't have to have gay limitations since we wouldn't have to worry about server crash attempts.

I take cash or checks by mail as a form of donation ;)

yeah, we can make it private if we have to, it's not hard.

if your wanting a uk server go for dedifrag.com. £1 a slot + free ventrillo or teamspeak with the number of slots your server has + free webhost(you need to put their banner on or something but lol)

but your probably wanting a us server :(

I just had to do this. This is from the wiki:


QuoteGarry's Mod was created in 2005 by Garry Newman. It started out as a mod that allowed users to rope things to go together, and it made the pistol shoot out manhacks.

Admin mod(id go with ulx as assmod sucks and newadmin isnt finished)[i have some extra commands ive written for ulx that come in useful]
phx3
wiremod
the unoffical wiremod extras(geekitry but i love this stuff now)

and please dont upload too many nukes

You'll need to have purchased Gmod through Steam, and have Steam.

I have steam, with the orange box. What I was wondering, is how he "acquired" his copy of GMod and if you could play it on a private server through steam. (Or steamless?)
The private server probably would check to see if it's legit, most don't...but the get around for steam...

If you get a private server, you don't need to have steam.
Title: Re: GMod Servers
Post by: ahref on February 13, 2009, 07:34:20 AM
you need to have steam if your using a server provider. they run the official steam server stuff and also run VAC(valve account control). Youll need steam and a legal copy of gmod. besides nothing works in a pirated version.
Title: Re: GMod Servers
Post by: Holkeye on February 13, 2009, 08:17:26 AM
On the contrary, everything works in a pirated version, because it includes all of the assets. Doesn't really matter though, because I'm going on a Steam shopping spree when I get my tax check.

me 3 damn alcohol.

regardless of my above blunder the server you're paying for will be an official server and it will require you to have a valid login before joining.

certain addons and bug fixes do not work a pirated version of gmod is likely to be a lower version then the current version which your server will get.
