Mount Counter-Strike: Source and Other Games

Lots of maps and addons need content from other Source games. Run Mount other games in the Gamepanel, enable the games in mount.cfg, and maps that need that content load on your server. Players need the same content to see it.

About the Game

About Garry's Mod

Updated 2 November 2026

Garry's Mod is the physics sandbox from Facepunch Studios, built on Valve's Source engine. There are no set goals: you spawn props, weld them together and build whatever you like, and the community has turned it into dozens of game modes of its own.

It came to Steam on 29 November 2006 and is still updated. The April 2026 update added two more games whose content can be mounted, and the September 2026 update brought 64-bit binaries to Windows. Players run everything from DarkRP roleplay servers to Trouble in Terrorist Town, Prop Hunt and Murder, all powered by addons from the Steam Workshop.

A Garry's Mod community lives on its server. A rented Garry's Mod dedicated server keeps your game mode, addons and admin team running around the clock, with fast CPUs for busy servers and nightly backups.

Trusted by Thousands of Gamers

★★★★★

PerfectPing has been a breath of fresh air compared to our former hosting website. Of course, we only have purchased a COD4 server which doesn't require a lot of service from the host, PingPerfect. I must say that they are very "Johnny on the spot" when it comes to open service tickets or even questions. Thanks, PingPerfect!

FAQ

Garry's Mod Server Hosting FAQ

How do I choose a Garry's Mod server host?▾

Check a few things: fast CPUs (Garry's Mod runs on one core, so busy servers need speed), enough slots for your community, easy Workshop collections, an admin mod you can install yourself, a location near your players, DDoS mitigation and automatic backups. A free trial lets you test the connection before you pay. Our servers have all of these, with 20 locations and a 48-hour free trial.

Can I run DarkRP, TTT or Prop Hunt?▾

Yes. Add the game mode to your Workshop collection or upload it by FTP, then set +gamemode and the start map in a custom command line. Our Workshop guide covers the settings.

How do I add Workshop addons?▾

Create a Steam Workshop collection, get a Steam Web API key, and put the key and the collection ID in a custom command line. The server downloads the collection on start. To make players download the addons too, add a resource.AddWorkshop line for each one to workshop.lua, as in our forced download guide.

How do I make myself an admin?▾

Install ULib and then ULX from the Mod Manager, and add your Steam ID to users.txt in the superadmin group. Our ULX guide has the format and the commands.

Why are players seeing missing textures and errors?▾

Many maps and addons use content from other games such as Counter-Strike: Source. Mount those games on the server with Mount other games in the Gamepanel, and make sure players have the same content. See our mounting guide.

Can I run the 64-bit version?▾

Yes. Use Change Server Version/Branch in the Gamepanel to switch to the 64-bit, development or prerelease branch, then run Change executable for 64 bit. See our branch guide.

How many players can join?▾

Our plans have 6, 24 or 32 player slots, and the Custom plan goes from 6 up to 64. Set maxplayers to match. For a full DarkRP server with lots of addons, Extreme hardware keeps the tick rate steady.

How much does a Garry's Mod server cost?▾

Plans start from $11.92/month for 6 players. For 24 players it's $36.74/month with NVMe Pro storage and High CPU priority, or $42.15/month for 32 players. Fast Redirect is an optional extra at checkout. Every plan is also available on our Extreme hardware, and all of them come with a 48-hour free trial.
