Addon Won't Show

Steps to take if your addon will not display in-game.

▸Verify Install

Verify that you've followed the instructions on the Install page. Ensure that this includes both a good installation of rlib AND the addon itself. You can also follow the steps on the Verify page to ensure that both of these are functioning properly.

▸Revert Config Changes

If you have made changes to the configuration and cannot get the addon to show; revert those changes. Try installing a fresh copy of the addon without any changes to determine if the changes to the config are to blame or if you are having issues elsewhere.

▸Use Latest Versions

Ensure that you are using the latest version of both rlib AND the addon you are trying to install. Gmodstorearrow-up-right allows developers to post multiple versions of an addon, and sometimes customers can accidentally click if downloading the addon from the Versions tab. Double-check your installed version.

▸Check For Incompatible Addons

From time to time; certain addons from the Steam Workshop may conflict with purchased addons from Gmodstore.

To eliminate the possibility of a Steam Workshop addon breaking this addon; please complete the following:

  • Open your server's Hosting Control Panel (gmc, crident, etc).

  • Locate the Startup Parameters section.

  • REMOVE the steam workshop collection id associated to the server

  • Save your server settings with workshop id removed

  • Restart the server and then join

  • Check to see if the addon now works

If you removed the workshop collection and your addon does NOT work; Submit a Ticket to the developer.

If you removed the workshop collection and your addon now works; you will need to use Process of Elimination to figure out which addon is causing a conflict.
