Engineered for Garry's Mod

Tools designed specifically for server administrators managing complex custom content and economies.

Steam Workshop Integration

Just paste your Steam Workshop Collection ID into our startup parameters. The server will automatically download, mount, and update all addons whenever it restarts.

FastDL Support

Bypass the painfully slow in-game download speeds. Synchronize your custom materials, models, and sounds to our integrated FastDL web server with one click.

Free MySQL Databases

Every GMod server comes with free, instantly generated MySQL/MariaDB databases. Essential for saving player data in DarkRP economies, Pointshop, and ULX administrative tools.

Full Lua & FTP Access

You have unrestricted root access to your server files. Upload custom gamemodes, tweak configuration files, and script custom Lua hooks directly through our web editor or an FTP client.

High Single-Core CPU

Garry's Mod runs on a legacy, heavily single-threaded Source engine. Our 5.5GHz+ Ryzen 9 9950X CPUs ensure zero physics choke even when hundreds of props are spawned simultaneously.

Custom L7 DDoS Mitigation

GMod servers, especially DarkRP communities, are frequent targets of attacks. Our custom routing rules instantly detect and filter malicious traffic without dropping active players.

The Standard for High-Pop GMod Servers

Garry's Mod is notorious for being incredibly demanding on server hardware. Because the game relies on an older version of the Source engine, it cannot effectively spread tasks across multiple CPU cores. When 60 players join a DarkRP server, running thousands of custom Lua scripts, wiremod calculations, and physics updates every tick, standard budget CPUs buckle immediately, causing severe "server lag" and desync.

At Nitrate.Host, we build our Los Angeles infrastructure exclusively on AMD Ryzen 9 9950X processors and high-speed DDR5 memory. This guarantees the highest possible single-core clock speeds on the market, allowing your server to process heavy addon arrays and massive prop builds without breaking a sweat. Combined with our free MySQL databases and Workshop integration, creating a top-tier community has never been easier.

Garry's Mod Hosting FAQ

Answers to common questions regarding our GMod server capabilities.

The easiest way is to create a Collection on the Steam Workshop, gather all your addons, and paste the Collection ID into our panel. Alternatively, you can directly upload legacy folder-based addons into your `garrysmod/addons` directory via FTP.

If you are using Workshop addons, the game handles downloads natively. However, if you have custom materials or models not on the workshop, we provide an automated FastDL sync tool in the control panel that creates a web-accessible URL for your players to download from instantly.

Yes, Valve requires a Game Server Login Token (GSLT) for your GMod server to show up on the public multiplayer server list. You can easily generate one for free on Steam and paste it into our control panel.

Absolutely. You can upload any gamemode into the `garrysmod/gamemodes` folder and set the startup parameter (e.g., `+gamemode darkrp`) directly in the panel. Free MySQL databases are included to support DarkRP economies.
