Oh geeze I forgot about those two.

Easiest way until I get an update out is to first mount HL2 then open up mount.cfg in steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\cfg

Copy the HL2 line twice. Change ones hl2 to be ep2 both as the name that is the first set of " and at the end of the path. Do the same for episodic.

• Can pull in your Source Games automatically once you give it your primary Steam directory
  
• Direct Hammer and Model viewer support for games with Authoring tools like CSGO, now directly launches so you don't have to deal with multiple tools open.
  
• Garrys Mod Support Added
  
• Garry's mod config setup that not only pulls in all your games but also any unpacked addons

This version is lite on features I know but my plan is to go ahead and make a stable version that does the basics and is setup in a way that allows me to add features in easily then move towards actually releasing on Steam. From there I can update hopefully on a much more regular basis and get an idea of what people want out of this tool.

If you find any bugs please post them here!

Do you have a GameConfig.txt in the location it is listing?

huh. When I reinstalled SMT none of my ep1 props worked, even though I had it mounted. When I added the episodic fgd they appeared. Opened it in notepad and it's literally the same as the hl2 fgd. Maybe it was just some strange bug, but apparently it fixed ep1 content?

That shouldn't be the case. The .fgd is the file that tells hammer "these are the entities that exist in this game" and provide the necessary translations between hammer and the engine for entitie input/output.

fgd's are not what provide you with assets. That's determined by the gameinfo.txt settings. New entities that did appear in EP1 such as the zombine should be present in the half life 2 fgd file. If you're looking to add EP1 content it's not called Episode 1 but rather episodic. Not sure why Valve chose that naming method.

For garrysmod content, it seems it needs to be on C:\ before being recognised. Is this a limitation of the Source engine or the SMT?

Probably SMT, I realized earlier today that most people are probably using SMT for Gmod so I started up a separate program just for Gmod. Which will hopefully mean since I can concentrate on just the one game it should mean all bugs like that get recognized and squashed instead of trying to debug for each game. First beta end of the week maybe? I'm reusing a lot of code but found a file in Steam that keeps track of install locations so that should probably fix that issue without me requiring the user to list each and every install location or the program trying to identify them on it's own.

Garry's Mod has its own hammer.exe now, FYI.

It's had one for awhile now but I've found users like it more when they have the option to mount other content like CSS and TF2. I could have it modify Garry's mods gameinfo.txt but that would cause issues when they go to play.

Ah right, sorry for asking then.

No need to be sorry I'm not mad at you, I'm actually glad people are giving feedback and posting bugs :)

When I click the 'How To Use' button in the GarrysMod tab, it doesn't do anything.

Running Garry's Mod hammer. I am using a windows theme, but it doesn't affect the old SMT.

That's strange. They are both opening the same hammer (sdk 2013 multiplayer) so I'm not sure why it would do that for one and not the other. I'll see if I can find out anything on why it might be doing that.
