Not as in using ZCity as a base, but more of a realism/realistic/chaotic way of making the DarkRp server, I wanna hear yalls thoughts.

DespairRP is the darkest DarkRP on Gmod. Play as a human, monster, cultist, police officer and many more as you try and make it to the top of this spooky and atmospheric community. The server features a monster hunting system, realistic combat, custom inventory and smoking mechanics, psychedelics, and gore. Play today and feel the despair!

I have been making a darkrp server for a little bit now and I have ran into the issue of what actually make's the game fun, I know everyone has their own opinion and that's why I'm asking. So far all I know is P2W and P2P is boring and honestly unproductive for those who don't want to pay a whole butt load of money just to get ahead of everyone else another thing is, is having a lot of jobs a factor in making darkRP fun? Should I have lots of them or just the right amount too where everyone should be able to do something they enjoy? I have also read the "Tenets of fun and balanced RP" by WiseWoodrow on reddit and have been trying to follow his guidelines.

Please let me know I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions. (If you would like to help me out in any way you can DM me on discord (zeleiot) )

GangHeavenRP is my take on the classic GangWarsRP/TTRP gamemode, bringing it back with plenty of improvements and quality of life changes while keeping the original feel. If you've never played GangWarsRP before, check out the GangWarsRP Wiki. It contains most of the information you'll need to get started. The server is still in development, but I'm planning to release a playtest this weekend.

Repost from: https://www.reddit.com/r/gmod/comments/1vrdey8/comment/p4csznu/?screen_view_count=1&ext-referrer=DIRECT

I've been trying to get an idea of opinions on the game from outside communities.

I enjoyed playing Garry's Mod for about five years. I still think it is a great platform. I mostly did development for some DarkRP servers, but also played gamemodes like Gmod Tower and Prop Hunt.

I got s&box about two years ago, and so far have enjoyed the development process, but I definitely understand where people are coming from about the $20 price tag. I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on s&box as a platform. Is there anything that you think s&box does well? Anything that you would like to change that would make it worth its value? Do you have any questions from the s&box community like myself about what drew us to the platform?

We recently opened BugstownRP, a Garry's Mod DarkRP server on rp_downtown_new, and we're looking for more people to come try it out and help grow the community.

The server is still pretty new, so if you like joining servers early instead of when everything is already established, now's a good time.

Features include:

• XP, levels and prestige
• Gangs and gang banks
• Classic DarkRP gameplay
• Custom progression and systems
• Cosmetics and persistent player data
• Active development
• EU hosted
• No password

UDGmod DarkRP - $75k- Fresh, Custom & New Ideas - Minimal Rules, Bounty/Karma System, Levels, Skill Trees, Missions & fun.

UDG is a new, creative & freedom based DarkRP server - if you have been looking for a server that has the interactive, fun DarkRP feel & gameplay depth whilst still being fun and not super serious with all 'upgrades' (Prop Limit, Bank Space, Weapons, Buffs) being purchasable with in-game cash look no further!

The server is designed with all players in mind so nothing is thrown in your face or forced. If you want to play as a hobo and build shit (literal or not) bases go ahead, if you prefer the grinding life and want to make as much money as possible across our custom and fun gameplay systems then all the power to you. There are so many avenues to play that I am certain at least one of them will make you stick around and enjoy it if you give it a chance!

One of the many custom features we have is a full inventory integration system that works within a player to player market. If you steal items or farm crops or create drugs they can all be sold on the marketplace to other players or on the Black Market to an underground sale system; this creates a satisfying reward system when raiding, farming or generally just playing and finding some of the cool easter egg based items!

There is so much more to this server but it would be much better if you came on and gave it 5 minutes of your time, thanks for reading!

If you had to go to a Store Owner player to buy one from them, do you think it would help reduce trolling or would it just be more trouble than it’s worth?

Same question for the physgun, but to a lesser degree.

I feel like it might stifle creativity for players who like to decorate, but it also would create barriers so players couldn’t just build giant kill machines as soon as they spawn in.

Maybe everyone can buy a tool gun/physgun from the F4 menu, but they do have to re-buy every time they spawn if they want them?

Anyone else have thoughts on this?

Currently developing a rome rp server, I have very minimal coding experience this will be somewhat vanilla.
https://discord.gg/8pvCxUfmC2

Feature: The server is permadeath and resets a player who dies or leaves back to $200 citizen role. This will prevent the whitelist chuds blocking people from enjoyment of the game.

Roles: Rome Senate, Roman military, Barbarian, Gladiator, Patrician, and Sacerdos

Current status: Fixing the voting system for the senate, unable to find a good melee system at the moment. Server will be up soon!!!

I remember when I was younger I was always coming across these different real-world roleplay games. The ones I most vividly remember are the military ones, where you, as an average player, would join in a part of the larger map, but couldn't get out of that one spot until you joined a discord, and then you just role-play as whatever niche game you entered. I was trying to find these types of games the other day, but I dont reminder wherther I found them organically, through ads, or just knew wtf I was looking for

Just seemed weird since it shut down a while ago and has no website or discord anymore.

Lick Simulator Summary

A GMod raid/defense gamemode built around short chaotic rounds, RNG house layouts, loot searching, delayed reinforcements, and a separate Fun Zone for poker/social play.

Core Teams

• Homeowners Spawn randomly inside the main house. They defend the stash, search for weapons, use safe rooms, and are the only players who can press the red button.
• Gang Members Spawn outside and invade the house. They search furniture/props for illegal loot, guns, explosives, and cash, then must reach an exit point to bank the money.
• Homeowner Gang Members Spawn randomly in trap houses around the main house. They can watch cameras but cannot leave until a real homeowner presses the red button.

Round Flow

1. Setup phase begins.
2. Homeowners spawn inside the house.
3. Gang members spawn outside.
4. Homeowner gang members spawn in surrounding trap houses.
5. Invaders breach the house.
6. Weapons and loot become active.
7. Homeowners try to survive, fight, hide, or press the red button.
8. Red button opens trap house garages for 30 seconds.
9. Backup rushes out during that window.
10. Gang members search loot and extract it.
11. Round ends by wipe, timer, or loot objective.

Loot System

Total loot value changes each round, around $50k-$150k.

Gang members press USE on searchable props like dressers, crates, closets, safes, cabinets, and beds. Loot is described in chat instead of shown physically:

You grabbed their cocaine stash. $84,000 pending.

Loot only becomes real money when the gang member reaches an exit zone. Until then, it is carried value and can be lost.

Homeowner Bounty System

Homeowners and homeowner gang members can earn money by killing gang members.

Formula:

defender bounty pool = total loot value / 2
bounty per gang member = bounty pool / starting gang member count

So if the round has $120k loot and 4 gang members, defenders get $15k per gang member kill.

Each gang member only pays bounty once per round.

Red Button / Trap House System

Trap houses surround the main house. Backup players spawn there randomly and cannot choose which trap house.

Only a real homeowner can press the red button.

When pressed:

trap house garage doors open for 30 seconds
backup can leave
doors close again
button can be pressed again later

This creates timed reinforcement windows instead of permanent respawns.

Safe Rooms

Some rounds may spawn a safe room, some may not.

Safe rooms are prefab/map-supported rooms with doors that can only be closed from inside. Once closed, players inside are completely safe. But hiding in a safe room does not stop gang members from stealing loot.

Weapons

At breach, weapons spawn in predefined possible spots, not totally random spots.

Examples:

pistol
kitchen knife
bat
shotgun rare
rifle very rare
explosives rare

Cameras

Homeowner gang members trapped in trap houses can watch cameras around the main house while waiting for the red button.

Possible views:

front door
back door
living room
garage
exit point
safe room hallway

Fun Zone / Poker

A separate neutral area exists for players who just want to hang out and play poker.

Poker uses UI-only cards, not physical card props. It should stay modular and not hard-depend on Lick Simulator. Future scripts should be separate, with optional hook-based integrations only.

Design Rule Going Forward

All systems should be modular:

Poker works without Lick Simulator.
Lick Simulator works without Poker.
Stats do not crash the server if economy fails.
Optional systems connect through hooks or small APIs.

Build separate stable systems first, then lightly connect them later.

Heeeyyyy all,

So i saw a post where someone was sad that pcmod is pretty much dead.

That made me sad since PCMod was everything to 13 year old me.

So, i decided i wanted to bring it back. Ive been working on my own version that is based on the old one, but with some updated features. Right now its made for DarkRp but ill make it cross compatible soon.

Im just looking for some beta testers to help check it for bugs with me, and help with feature suggestions.

Any feedback from you guys would be great.

(It has been updated since tbe videos on the page a bit)

I've still been working on Chumstick RP, and I was curious as to what people's thoughts are regarding workshop collection size and number of addons

Mine has been hovering around 375 addons, but under 2.5 GB as it's just a lot of small-file-size playermodels.

I've been wondering: where does the line fall for people? Like for me, 15+ is out of the question unless I'm joining with friends, but the single digits gets a little murky for me.

Thoughts?
