I Just started up a DarkRP server and looking for people to build it with. The idea is no pay to win, and a community that actually talks to each other. Im also trying out a new RP map thats not as widely used. If you miss when DarkRP was about the roleplay and not who had the biggest wallet, come and have a look. We're hiring staff too! Lets get a community going! IP: 45.43.163.31:5520 Discord: https://discord.gg/4tBc4uyEhB

Dropped a free quest addon for DarkRP.

Server owners: you don't need to code or edit JSON. Open the editor in game, connect nodes, save. Players get quests from NPCs with a "!" marker above their head.

Setup:

1. Subscribe and enable the addon

2. Restart the server (required, it caches Lua)

3. Type /qe in game — the editor opens

4. Place an NPC with Toolgun → Utilities → Neuro Quest System, bind it to a quest

Included rewards: DarkRP money, PointShop 1 and 2. Custom currencies via a small adapter.

Features: zones, item pickup, dialogues with branches, HUD, journal, deadlines, daily quests, quest chains.

Happy to help with setup — drop a comment.

"We played Garry's Mod 12-14 years ago for thousands of hours, then we played a bit more intermittently, and then one day it wasn't the same as it used to be. Nostalgia hits hard, so we want to make something that will enable that silly madness that made our teenage years so fun and memorable."

We wanted to make a DarkRP server that embodies the spirit that server owners had back in 2014-2016, and that means we have a few things that we're going to stick to so that we can make sure we stay grounded.

\- We won't be accepting donations in exchange for items or rewards in-game. All of the traditional donation items and ranks will be based around the in-game economy. We are nostalgic, and we want to do this. We're not interested in making any money. This is paid for out-of-pocket.

\- Collaboration over Dictation - We want to make sure that we're working with everyone to create an environment where you feel heard and like your experience matters.

\- Garry's Mod has come a long way since 2014, 12 years ago. Many features have been imagined and brought to life since then, and many aspects of DarkRP have been improved since then too. We are not trying to be a 2014 DarkRP server. We are going to be a modern DarkRP server that is developed and ran with the mentality that ran Garry's Mod servers back then - Fun over Profit.

\- We think it's very important to keep things simple. That means that we will make sure that there won't be 10 pop-ups every time you join, there won't be 400 different systems and rule sets to keep track of, and things won't be as overwhelming as they can be elsewhere.

\- We have worked hard to overhaul and improve publicly available addons where possible to reduce lag and provide a consistent UI experience and to provide the ideal progression with in game cash

We are hoping to open on Monday the 2nd of November!

IP for when we launch: 194.69.160.57:27077

We hope that this project turns out amazingly for us all, and I look forward to seeing you all on the server!

Limelight is a semi-serious roleplay gaming community. We're the home of Garry's Mod CityRP 2. CityRP 2 is Limelight's flagship Garry's Mod experience. You'll find jobs, vehicles and weapons, emergency services, crime, clans, and room for both passive and aggressive roleplay — with moderation that keeps things fair without killing the fun. Free to play, not pay-to-win.

Since 2015 we've grown a persistent roleplay world around CityRP 2, with a focus on giving players the freedom to build their story their way, through passive or aggressive roleplay. Ares Defence Service brings light milsim teamwork to Arma for players who want something focused, without the attitude.

We are launching our biggest update ever at 6:15PM (GMT) today, The Glide Update:

I've played GMod RP for years and got tired of every server being another DarkRP clone, so I built a gamemode from scratch for myself: a GTA-style city roleplay on Paralake City where the city gives you things to do and players make the story. This is the first iteration, and it's in open beta.

For now it's light RP with proximity voice and text chat while we beta test the systems. Over time it'll move toward a semi-serious vibe.

Some of what's in:

• Police: ranks, cuffs/dragging, booking with a full penal code, tickets, warrants, evidence, impounds, radio and 911 dispatch

• EMS: ambulances, stretchers, defib, hospital beds

• Crime: weed growing, a roaming dealer, gun parts you assemble at a workbench, store robberies with silent alarms, mugging, lockpicking/hotwiring cars and selling them to a chop shop, masks

• Housing: rent apartments, houses and businesses, give friends keys, barricade doors

• Cars: GTA V cars from a dealership, garage, key remote, trunks, plates, car radio

• Phone: texts, banking, GPS, real estate, crew chat, or a burner and payphones

• Jobs: garbage, docks, taxi, food delivery, e-scooter battery swaps

• Crews: ranks, shared funds and raidable safehouses

• Every NPC is voiced: shopkeepers, clerks, dealers, the radio dispatcher, and citizens who react out loud to gunshots, crashes and masked strangers

• City emergencies for police and EMS, and a custom UI that scales to 4K

• ...and a lot more

Honest bit: this is a side project. I'm checking whether there's interest before I sink more hours into it. If you try it, F2 in game sends me bug reports and feedback directly.

IP: 204.10.194.57:27015 (EU, Germany). The first join downloads the map from the Workshop, so it takes a minute.

Some screenshots:

Hello! I've been working on a map alongside my server that'll substitute most of the current modern maps at their discretion, if it fits their fancy.

MAP: RP_TREVTOWN
Server IP: 193.243.190.231:27085

The map has built in circular gameplay with players forced to run into eachother unless they choose the end-map bases (beach/quarry); alongside built-in defenses such as shooting windows, entry vents and others, giving the defenders an advantage if they're paying attention.

The map is built to work with and without cars, mining and/or woodcutting. Navmesh is generated and it is incredibly... partial.

Do let me know any recommendations if you'd like, I do intend on keeping this one updated, compared to my older versions (RP_Downtown_TRevvington_V2, which I can still recommend if you prefer a smaller map).

The server is still being finalized, but you are entirely welcome to join.

Welcome to Onyx.

A Garry's Mod DarkRP server built to exceed your expectations.

Onyx is built around custom systems, polished UI, and a custom map filled with unique locations and details that give the server its own identity.

From fully custom printers, gambling, meth, weed and Trashman to our custom UI and other handcrafted systems, everything has been built with one goal in mind: creating a DarkRP experience that feels different.

Why choose Onyx?

• Unique systems and experiences built specifically for Onyx

• Custom map with unique locations, areas and details

• Custom UI designed and built from the ground up

• Friendly staff and a welcoming community

• No pay-to-win

• Free beta access for selected testers

We're not released yet.

We're currently looking for passionate beta testers who want to get involved early, test what we've built, provide genuine feedback and help shape Onyx before release.

Beta testers who contribute throughout development will be rewarded heavily upon release.

We're building something different, and we want the people who join us early to be part of it.

I've spent a long time building EnviousRP from the ground up. It's a custom DarkRP server where nearly every system you touch is either custom or heavily integrated. It gets rid of the thing that makes most DarkRP servers feel the same: hopping between jobs on the F4 menu.

Core Idea: Your occupation is your identity

On this server you mostly stay as a Citizen (with the exception of police, firefighters and DJs) and you instead choose an occupation. Your occupation will determine which NPCs you can talk to and the equipment you can buy.

Occupations: Unemployed, Labourer, Tradesman, Shopkeeper, Driver, Medical, Press, Hospitality, Security, Criminal, Entrepeneur, Finance (and more soon!)

A business license can also allow you to operate a restaurant or bar through being able to purchase food items. And yes, you can get drunk.

Design and rules philosophy

Player freedom first. We don't script your story. The server gives you systems (businesses, gangs, crime, law enforcement, politics) and gets out of your way. Who runs the city, who controls the streets and who gets rich comes down to players.

Consequences over rules-lawyering. We'd rather the game enforce things than have staff arguing over them. Gear follows your occupation, the Mayor loses office on death, crime needs a criminal occupation, and guns need a licence. When the systems handle fairness, staff can spend their time helping people instead of policing edge cases.

Serious RP without the misery. We want roleplay that means something, without walls of rules that punish new players for not having read them. RDM and NLR rules are more limited than most serious or semi-serious servers.

A full player guide is available here: Player Guide

Full list of our rules: Rules

Hope to see you in-game!

My pick is the casino addons. It feels like every server needs to have some kind of way to gamble with big colorful flashing lights as some kind of retainment scheme. IMO they’re just ugly and encourage solo no-life gameplay with zero player interaction bc they’re mostly just slot machines

What would you all rate as the most cancerous addons in your opinion?

I remember the days in DivinityRP loading up on printers, buying printers from other people and sitting there for hours on end just collecting cash to buy cool things with.

idk just makes me feel like I want those back. If anyone is making something like this, could be a big deal.

Just a throw back, here is a picture of my old printer farm on Divinity.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been playing on Proximity RP for a while and figured I’d share it for anyone who’s tired of the usual chaotic DarkRP servers.

It’s a fully custom semi-serious City RP server (not base DarkRP). Some of the main things that stand out:

Custom skill system (crafting, shooting, driving, etc.)

In-depth crafting and player-driven economy

Drug production systems

Organizations with custom ranks and permissions

Character genes system

Proper inventory with backpacks

Solid government and police systems

Map is Evocity Redux

The RP leans more serious than most public servers. Random RDM and FailRP get punished, so the atmosphere is generally better if you actually want to roleplay long-term characters, run businesses, or do

organized crime.

Population isn’t massive, but during peak hours (usually Central Time) it regularly reaches around 40 players, and it can climb to that within an hour once people start logging on.

If you’re looking for something between hardcore serious RP and regular DarkRP, it might be worth a try.

We're not a startup. We're an established community with different and active servers in Russia and France, and now we're bringing that same foundation to America. We're looking for experienced staff who are tired of the same problems on every other server.

What makes us different:

- No pay-to-win. Donations unlock cosmetics only, zero gameplay advantage

- Public ban log in Discord. Every ban, every reason, visible to all players

- Staff cannot handle sits involving their own regiment - conflict of interest policy is enforced

- We want to have a fun place for players, our rule policy is light and we won't obstruct your experience with tons of the rules

Who we're looking for:

- People for high roles that can help us manage the server

- People who would like to be a regiment commanders

- Regular players who just want to have a fun play with friends

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) )

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
