GMod Tower: Complete Asset Archive

Description
This addon was uploaded purely for archival and historical purposes.

This addon does not contain any gamemode, lua or script code created by PixelTail Games or the original GMod Tower Classic dev team, and I have no plans to release any of that code.
Neither I nor anyone else takes credit for the work done by the original GMod Tower developers, or the work of the GMod Tower Classic developer team. Everything created in this pack belongs to their respective parties.
_______________________________________________________________

This is an archive of all the GMod Tower (2007 - 2015) and GMod Tower Classic (2016 - 2020) content with all code removed and only models, textures and sounds remaining. A now bygone and somewhat forgotten time, this is to my knowledge the most comprehensive archive of GMod Tower's assets and legacy available on the workshop.
I've been witness to the restoration project of GMod Tower since around 2018, and I've seen a lot of it unfold in front of my eyes. From the beginning, it was amazing to see such life and such vigor dedicated to upholding a piece of Garry's Mod history, and it was the astounding work done by everyone involved to keeping this gamemode alive that made it all so special.

Unfortunately, nobody has taken to creating a full, comprehensive archive of the maps, models, textures and sounds created by both PixelTail Games, the various developers of the GMTC project and the wider Garry's Mod community over the years. And since I still kept a vast majority of it, I decided to release all of it for everyone to enjoy.


Of course, I can't release any of the code made over the years, because
  1. I don't want people stealing code,
  2. PixelTail doesn't want people using their code,
  3. Most of the developers involved would be mad at me for releasing their code.
I don't want people claiming they own GMod Tower or poorly rebranding it as their own, and I don't want to be the cause for a lot of spam servers popping up all over the place with bad versions of GMT and GMTC. If you want to experience GMod Tower again, Sunshine Tower[sunshinetower.org] is a pretty good fan-hosted and faithful recreation/continuation of the original gamemode.
Lastly I'm not gonna release the code because it's technically exclusively PixelTail's since it has no public license, and releasing it on the workshop would be akin to releasing stolen/leaked code; which is against Steam Workshop TOS.
So no, I will NOT be releasing any of the code for GMod Tower's or GMTC's gamemode or server. Don't ask me about it.

With all that being said, I would also like to ask everyone to please support PixelTail Games and all of their hard work. While the original GMod Tower may be dead, they're still working hard on it's successor Tower Unite and they would love it if you were to buy it and support the undoubtedly amazing future they're building towards. Please check out and play Tower Unite, and support PixelTail's development!

What's NOT included:
  • Maps used by GMod Tower and GMTC

Some props show up as errors and most some maps has missing textures, does i need anything like L4D2 or CSS? or it's conflicting mods?

crowbar has an unpack tab you can specifically extract what you need, if you haven't tried that.
northh  [author] 13 Jan @ 6:47am 
extract with 64bit gmad.exe

Wan't to grab some specific models from this, but either its protected or just to big, and I can't extract it. Would there be a easy way to get the raw files?
