- Rename it from prophunt-master to just prophunt
- To start the server open a command prompt and type
srcds.exe -game garrysmod +gamemode prophunt -autoupdate - Now change whatever settings you want and hit "Start Server" button.
- You can edit the gamemode settings in
\srv\steam\gmod\garrysmod\gamemodes\prophunt\gamemode\config.lua.
- Create a text file in your "C:\steamcmd\gmod"
- Copy the following command into the text file
srcds.exe -game garrysmod +gamemode prophunt -autoupdate - Rename the file prophunt.bat and just double click it.
- Dont forget to forward the steam ports on your router to your server pc.
- You will only have the default garrysmod maps at first, which dont have any props, so you will have to get new ones.
- You can download your own maps from various sources and place them in the
C:\steamcmd\gmod\garrysmod\mapsfolder. - Dont forget about the global Garrysmod server setting in
C:\steamcmd\gmod\garrysmod\cfg\server.cfg. Here is an example of a simple one.
hostname "My PropHunt Server"
rcon_password "password"
sv_password "password"
sv_region 1
sv_lan 0
