October 2024 Update is live

The October 2024 Update is now live.

Update Highlights


This update brings many animation fixes for the Half-LIfe 2 campaigns playable through Garry's Mod if you own the games on Steam.



There are also a few quality of life improvements - a search bar for addon presets and spawnicon editor menus, as well as a date of last visit for each server in the server browser.



For modders the new Particle Editor layout is now available, identical to how it works in newer Source Engine games. A whole bunch of new particle operators and initializers are included with the new layout a as well.



The update also includes a bunch of smaller fixes, optimizations, stability improvements and additions here and there, for modders and players alike.

This update requires servers to update before you can join them.

This means that for a certain period of time after the update releases you may be unable to join servers and get a message saying "The server is running an older version of the game" instead. You will have to wait for servers to update before you can join them again, as well as make sure your game is up to date.

You cannot downgrade to a previous version of the game. Please be patient and let server owners update their servers.
