uhhh... whys your name like that?

Okay that was indeed in my end, all my gmod files were dying of dementia and were all deleted... How did it end up like this.

I needed indeed to download all the files too to make them up list on the downloader.

NOW after I made work my smooth worm brain I was able to make it work flawlessly. Thank you, and sorry for the big messages.

> Failed to download addon "..."

It's an issue on your end, Steam failed to download the workshop addons for some reason. Unfortunately gmod doesn't provide us with an error reason, so i can't even tell you why. Works for me on one of the addons though

> mount also a WHOLE collection?

No. The way we do it for single addons is i take the addon's ID from the URL when you go to the page. For collections it's trickier; i'd need to execute javascript... and gmod doesn't let us do that on Steam's pages so devs don't steal people's steam credentials and shit.

There *IS* a way to do it with an external service (i.e. take the collection ID, feed it to something that would give us a list of addons), but it's a pain in the ass IMO and wouldn't work for private/unlisted/etc. collections.

If it's for a server, you can use the "Caught addons" thingy (the document icon); if the server was already having the player download the addons [wiki.facepunch.com], it'll show up there and you'll be able to add it

Could you add an option to mount also a WHOLE collection?

Addon is amazing tho :o

Tis great but doesn't work with the SCB Chatbox as TSO says :(
Any pointers skibidi to get it working with it? I've tried excluding it but it's just not playing ball.
Any ideas? Cheers

I'd see why it breaks but it's a paid addon, so rip

Ooooo perfect okay thank you, it broke SCb ChatBox that was all, but I’ll clear the data file and reload it and not add it to the list thanks for the help!

It doesn't stop regular workshop downloading (ie during the loading screen), unless you add it to the list

The settings menu (wsmount_settings console command) will contain `caught addons`, which are addons that download like usual; only by adding those to the WSM list (via the + button) will they get downloaded through WSM

Is there a way to make it ignore defined workshop id's to allow them to download?

BEST ADDON. EVER.

Never thought it will be possible but I don't think my eyes deceive me.

Thanks

fastdl will download the addon while loading instead of while in-game, losing the entire point
you can, theoretically, send GMA files as any other format then mount that file manually (via game.MountGMA), but then it's just worse workshop

steam's workshop CDN will usually beat whatever host you'll be using

Is it possible to do this with fastdl?

Thanks help

you can also use your regular browser and put the workshop URL at the top; that'll also work

works x64

either a steam or gmod issue; try the x64 branch

Thanks

updated; make sure you update your addon from either github or workshop

Means some addon tried adding a workshop addon with an invalid ID (not a number, for example)
It's the fault of that addon but i'll add a check for that stupidness

updated, should be fixed

That being said, keep in mind this is only for mounting workshop content , such as models, textures and sounds; this will not run Lua files in these addons, so weapons, entities and other stuff won't magically appear.

This is mostly for server owners to have their players download content while gaming instead of during the loading screen. You'll still need to add it to the server's workshop (or subscribe if someone is hosting) if you want stuff like new weapons or new vehicles to appear

Does this still work? I’m trying tu use it with a friend for testing addons with no luck on making it work…

good Addon

toybox 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

Would definitely be useful for single player though

kinda doubt it since the server can't download steam addons, so itd be impossible to do without questionable hacks (like the players downloading addons for the server then sending them over)

Aww darn... I could've sworn there was an addon that would let you do such a thing...

no, it downloads the content (such as sounds and models) and mounts it in-game; the actual code behind it isn't downloaded

Are you able to download something like a weapon addon with this and it'll work in game? Like you could immediately use the weapon?

They mount after they load, during play; they don't have to restart afterwards

does this fix missing textures and models on the player's end while they play and finish downloading, or just make initial connection and loading faster while they wait for everything to download and mount so they can restart afterwards?

Addon share made people download the same addons the host used at the loading screen
This allows setting up addons to download in-game , without having to wait for it to load to play

So is this a revamp of that old addon share mod? Or is this something entirely different? Either way, sounds pretty cool.
