Security concerns

could someone tell me where the info from "security concerns" comes from? it seems kind-of one sided confronting garry -mysekurity 05:53, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

"The thespian can bring items into the sandbox by using the spawn menu. This menu gives the thespian access to every single physical object and character ragdoll in the game." Is it EVERY object? Sombody should notice out. I really don't think every object is in the spawn menu.

Isn't only being able to edit everything a bit, wierd!?

Yes, I believe all objects are in the spawn menu. Ortzinator 17:58, 7 December 2005 (UTC) [reply]

Some objects, such every bit the chess set (seen in the HL2 chapter "Black Mesa East"), and other random things aren't availible. But about 95% (simply a guess, listen you) of the items tin be spawned, and then it doesn't affair. --Chris16447 xix:13, 2 February 2006 (UTC) [reply]

GMod Plus adds a huge number of items non listed in the standard GMod menus, but I don't call back if the chess table is one of them or not. Only a clean install of GMod does get out out a lot of potential objects, but does include, equally far as I know, every object with physics backdrop. Errick 04:23, 15 March 2006 (UTC) [reply]

As well, one can manually add together spawn code for any object 1 wants. All models within HL2 are accessible trough Gmod.

You can spawn objects that aren't in a spawn listing past clicking the small folder icon on the left side of the spawn menu. This lets y'all browse through all the available props. —The preceding unsigned annotate was added by Mr. Altaco (talk • contribs) 02:x, 24 February 2007 (UTC). [reply]

There are thousands of objects, the ones listed in the default spawn menus are the ones almost probable to be used for posing, building contraptions etc. Yous tin scan and search through every available object to yous in the browser (folder icon.) Daveoh 19:07, 27 July 2007 (UTC) [answer]

Any object. Although the spawn menu may not contain all of them, you can still access them from the file-view. SaderBiscut 02:52, 2 August 2007 (UTC) [reply]

I believe that the culture section is completely based on POV and does non reflect the true nature of the mod community. It is true that when y'all first start upwardly the game, your name is MingeBag, but it actually is pointless to say that but because your name is MingeBag that you lot volition be kicked from the server. That may be the author's opinion, but it certainly is non fact--Deemo 17:27, 31 Dec 2005 (UTC) [reply]

I concur, the mod is well-nigh goofing off and making stuff, it isn't counterstrike.

Besides agree, the religion section needs to become likewise.

It'southward not about goofing off anymore, now it has competative and fun multiplayer games. Ledmonkey 21:23, 19 January 2006 (UTC) [answer]

Definitely true. Near servers I go to kick MingeBags, or at to the lowest degree check if they're an intelligent role player. As well, about Garry'due south Mod comics and movies make jokes about MingeBags, which take their own metaphoric form as a Kleiner model with missing animations. In conclusion, please exercise not say to delete a bit of information just because you lot didn't already know it. I take probably used Garry'south Mod far longer than you lot, and trust me, the term is very common now. --Katana314 21:06, 1 December 2006 (UTC) [reply]

The article says, "While information technology does not have any actual gameplay value in a traditional sense...". Garry's mod DOES accept some game modes, including melon racer, birdpoo, build to the top, build span, soccer, fort wars, and many others. All of these game modes are included with the modern, and have valid goals and objectives.

Notation: Someone has deleted the entire virus department, saying "it was dumb". This must be fixed, as viruses tin be a real problem and the editor was plain someone of dubious status.

The "Mutual Viruses" section is discipline to change as new viruses is produced, and will probably change over fourth dimension as they spread at dissimilar speeds. I suggest changing information technology to a list of example viruses and remove "copies" (3 scripts that grants remote access to clients is not neccessary in that case). --Drakilor 07:xl, 18 August 2006 (UTC) [reply]

Lua viruses are no longer of any event, due to the fact that there was a steam update that prevents lua from harming your computer or garry's mod app. The lua virus section is merely applicable for Gmod 9. --Mr. Altaco

And? - I use version ix (Since I don't intended to purchase the premium version). If one day someone invented an operating system that was 100% virus proof, you wouldn't retroactively delete all the articles on computer virus' because non everyone uses the same operating system. Before at present I'd never heard of lua virus' on GMod and now I'm nevertheless none the wiser. --85.62.18.iii (talk) 13:07, eighteen November 2007 (UTC) [reply]

Lua viruses are a major problem, and then cheque your Lua/Init folder regularly, and if you notice something you lot or TEAM GARRY didnt put their, you lot should probably open up it with a text program (i.e. wordpad or notepad) and erase information technology, and then save as a .lua, and brand information technology read only

This is pretty much all y'all need to practise

May i say that this is but a trouble with version 9.0 and upwards

Have moved the Gmod 9 section down the article - given that the software is nonetheless freely available, I think its inclusion here is however valid. Equally information technology is not the well-nigh recent version of the software information technology is less important => lower downwardly the article. I removed the sentence in the pop culture section which had no commendation to back up its claim most memes, and therefore tag every bit well. I too removed a non-encyclopedic section almost viruses and lua:

Then, unless an established GMod Lua scripter decides to lose their reputation (since usually, .lua scripts are highly criticised by the harsh video game customs until they make good stuff that everyone wants), virtually .lua scripts will either exist at to the lowest degree slightly obvious to the average GModder that they accept viruses in them, or they volition be 100% make clean, and at most, glitchy (but only because of inexpierenced users or weird updates through Steam that conflict with lawmaking, so zip bad or frequent...)

While the argument over why MingeBags deserve to be so heavily ridiculed is still unclear, with supporters of newcomers to the game on one side, and the veteran players on the other, it still draws in fans all over the world every 24-hour interval. Whether they are ridiculed or not, they volition eventually pass through the MingeBag phase, and either become decent experienced players, become havoc-enducing problems, or true veterans with skill and manipulative control enough to create some of the wonders in the Garry's Mod world.

It is withal officially Garrysmod 10, and will stay so until a new garrysmod that has been completely overhauled and redone is produced. - 18:59, eight July 2008 (GMT)

Sensored for maturity values. Changed it to say that version numbers were dropped for ease. Case airtight.

I recall the reason number "Garry's Modernistic 11" came upwards is because every and so often Garry releases a major update to the mod which brings it to the adjacent version of the Source engine. For case, in January of 2008 it was updated from the Episode One engine to the Episode Two (Or "Orangish Box") engine allowing things such as motility blur, updated water furnishings, etc. But eiter way, it's yet just "Garry'due south Mod". When he brougt the modern from v9 to v10 (the "Paid" version you buy off of steam) information technology was officially named Garry'south Modernistic (with no version number).

4chan memes are not 4chan memes. They are internet memes. They are a part of the internet. Likewise, many people who go to 4chan as well go to Facepunch. See: Encyclopedia Dramatica > Facepunch CompuHacker (talk) 01:15, thirty August 2008 (UTC) [reply]

That entirely depends. Some things originated elsewhere and moved to the *chans but some of it did originate and propagate there before anywhere else, although unknown to the boilerplate *channer, a majority of the 'memes' originated in places similar Ebaums and SomethingAwful before '4chan' even existed, and constitute their way there.

Left 4 Dead is treated similar a non-source game in Steam, has no SDK and does not load into Garry's Mod. I'k pretty sure y'all cannot employ information technology to run gmod with. Should exist removed.

Apropos Thibbs' edit, Garry's Modernistic ISN'T a 'non-violent' game. In that location is blood, killing, etc. Since information technology isn't editable we'll have to deal with false information.

Actually information technology's merely semi-protected. And, yes, it'due south a not-fierce game.

Exactly. Yous wouldn't telephone call Little Big Planet or The Sims a 'violent game' but because it'south entirely possible to bring death on a character, because the goal of the product is in LBP'southward instance, platforming and puzzlesolving, and in The Sims case, edifice and living a normal life for your character.

And at that place isn't that much blood - simply an effect that disappears instantly. And that'southward a function of the games Gmod works with, rather than a part of Gmod itself. The intention of GMOd is not to be violent. So there. Kit (talk) 13:22, xiii January 2009 (UTC) [reply]

"The Phoenix-Storms Model Pack is a pack which includes many geometric objects (such as cylinders, cuboids and plane parts) to permit more precise building."

The game is "Garry's Modern ten" on steam.

Why is there no criticism section? Garrys mod is regularly critized for being buggy, having lackluster developer responses to bug, creating game breaking problems every update and allowing for massive amounts of spammed gmod-based images to be released online. these are fairly important points, about covered in regular gaming forums and websites. They should be noted hither.
