Do I Need A Source Game For The Garrys Mod

How to mountable games for Garrys Mod free?

You are going to have to buy Half-Life 2: Episode 2, CS: source, and Team Fortress 2, unfortunately. GMod Tower requires versions of them from Steam, which means you would have to buy them, and pirated versions wouldn't work (problems with mounting and Source SDK). If you don't believe me, here are a few quotes (websites in source area)
--------------------------------------...
BEFORE YOU CONNECT TO GMT...
You're going to need to meet the requirements below.
Garry's Mod with Counter Strike: Source, HL2: Episode 2, and Team Fortress 2 mounted
2 GB RAM
Steady Internet connection with a decent download speed for streaming media
At least 800MB of hard drive space with at least 800MB of additional space for future updates
--------------------------------------...
you HAVE to register Valve games on Steam. And Steam games by Valve are Gmod portable. As long as it's a real copy (non-bootleg) and has NEVER been opened, it will work perfectly fine.
--------------------------------------...
Note: When viewing a game in the Steam Store, all games that support Garry's Mod will say: Includes Source SDK. It is required that games contain the SDK as that allows Garry's Mod to use its resources.

What games are required to run Garry's Mod?

It will run without any games.Although if you need access to all servers in Gmod, you will need almost all Source games - Tf2, Half Life 2, Portal 2,etc. (Steam Version.not cracked)And not only hl2,portal2, but also their previous versions.

What software do you need to play Garry's Mod?

You need to install the Steam Client, and to get most of the textures you also need to buy Counter-Strike: Source. You can play without Counter-Strike, but many maps and mods rely on textures from it.

What games do i need to plaay garrys mod?

The best choice for starting out in Gmod would be Counter Strike source or Half Life 2 but mostly counter strike source. Having one of those games will allow you to access at least 80% of the content in G-Mod.

@ Gillnort Man

You don't need a source game it just needs to be backed up by Gmod.

Here's a list of what you can get

Do I need Counter Strike installed for Garry's Mod?

Well it is not required but it is recommended because some textures may show as error in the game and not always though. I mean the counter strike textures. When i bought the Gmod from Steam i bought Counter Strike Source+Garry's Mod and it was 12$ for my region (or maybe country because im not sure but it was 24$ for my friend who lives in another region).

And also, if you really have Counter Strike Source already then i recommend you to install it too. It is rather better to play without problems than playing with some problems just because you dont want to install the game. So i recommend you to instal CSS too and you will be more happier with that.

Sorry for my bad English by the way.

And yeah you need Half Life too but i didn't buy half life because i dont like it and i dont have any problems with Counter Strike Source + Gmod+ Counter strike source is a good game too so i bet you will play it too sometimes when you want.

Does Garrys mod cost money to get?

If you have cs:s hl2 deathmatch and regular hl2 then you can get garrys mod 9 for free if you want garrys mod 10, then you can have any game made from valve and buy gmod 10 from steam store FOR $10 do the ATI or NVIDIA steam deal, google it and get normal hl2 (hope u have it) and cs:s that way you can get gmod 9 for free or u can make gmod only run the GCFs for HL2 DM if you do one of the offers, just google it

(Garry's Mod) Is it possible to replace in-game NPC's with another skin?

You can do that with the Model Manipulator STool.

Some skin packs, such as Slow NPC model packs, come with separate NPCs using a certain skin you've downloaded, but the NPC itself will be identical to the regular zombie.

Note that some skins (not in the pack, just in general) aren't compatible with certain NPC actions.

How does Garry's Mod work?

Garry's Mod is a....mod....for multiple games which use the Source Engine (a video game engine).
Because it is a mod with a broad reach across multiple games, this makes it unique.

If you're planning on getting Garry's Mod there's some things you should know.
- Garry's Mod is, at it's core, a sandbox game, meaning it is meant as a tool to modify everything around you in the game world to the farthest extent one possibly could using the game's technology.
However, this hasn't stopped user created mods and add-ons from changing the experience into different Gamemodes: DarkRP (a role playing simulator), Trouble in Terrorist Town (TTT for short, basically identical to the board game "Clue" only replacing teenagers with terrorists, mansions with deadly and sometimes dreadful atmospheres, and flashlights with guns), etc. The first two being the most popular.

- It uses Steam's Workshop (An add-on and mod management service(Yes there are mods of Garry's Mod(inb4 modception)))

- Despite it being sold as a standalone game, it still requires the games it was originally created for to function. This means any Source Engine game (Preferably Half-Life: 2 or Counter-Strike: Source, as the content: textures, models, sounds, etc. from these games are used extensively by most people who make the add-ons for Garry's Mod)


tl;dr:
-Garry's Mod is a sandbox-style game with other user created gamemodes offered by the community.
-You need only one Source Engine game for it to work (I recommend Counter-Strike: Source)
-Once BOTH GAMES are installed, you can browse the "Steam Workshop" for mods and add-ons.
-Joining multiplayer servers with mods installed will AUTOMATICALLY install the server's mods to your game, no need to worry (With a few exceptions).
-Total for both games should be about $25.00

EDIT:
When you buy your Source Game for Garry's Mod to use, don't forget to install and START the game at least once so Garry's Mod sees that it's installed and ready to use.
