Props Menu
The Props Menu is a menu within the Game Menu which allows you to spawn a variety of props (also known as models) into the game world. Props are the basic building blocks of Garry's Mod. They are simply objects that allow you to build anything you want, from scenery to contraptions.
The Props Menu is divided into two sections, the top are is where the Spawnlists are stored, and the bottom area is where their contents are displayed.
Spawnlists
Spawnlists are collections of props that contain related items. There are a number of built-in spawn lists that are available as soon as you start playing Garry's Mod:
- Useful construction props
- Useful comic props
- Hl2 Vehicles
- Hl2 Characters
- HL2 Weapons
- and others including the PHX Model Pack
As the props from Half Life 2 are available by default in Garry's Mod there is a huge range of props available from that game, already divided into spawnlists. Each new Source game you mount on Garry's Mod will get it's own Spawnlists, as well as any model packs you install.
The Spawnlists are stored in you Garry's Mod save files:
- On 32-bit Windows, they are located at C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\USERNAME\garrysmod\garrysmod\settings\spawnlist\
- On 64-bit Windows, they are located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\USERNAME\garrysmod\garrysmod\settings\spawnlist\
- On Mac OS (X), they are located at:
- Users\USER\Library\Application Support\Steam\SteamApps\USERNAME\garrysmod\garrysmod\settings\spawnlist\
- OR Finder\USER\Library\Application Support\Steam\SteamApps\USERNAME\garrysmod\garrysmod\settings\spawnlist\
Spawning Props
The Prop menu is the default view for the Game Menu and is accessible by pressing the menu button (by default the "Q" key) and clicking the "Props" tab.
Clicking a props icon will spawn it wherever the cross-hairs are pointed in-game.
Additional Notes
- Each time you add model packs Garry's Mod will need some time to generate the icons for the spawn menu.
- There are many prop packs available for download on http://garrysmod.org
- The Toybox Menu also has a wide range of user submitted props
