Hello everyone,

The next Garry's Mod update is coming soon!

The current plan is to release the next Garry's Mod update on 24th of June at the usual 4PM GMT.
The update will be optional for server owners, however it is always a good idea to keep your server updated to receive all the latest fixes and features.

You can preview the list of upcoming changes here:

Pre-release Steam Branch

The Pre-Release and x64-86 Steam beta branches for Garry's Mod has been updated and contain all the changes that will be included in the next update.

If you want to set up an Dedicated Server instance using the Pre-Release branch, see this article: https://wiki.facepunch.com/gmod/Downloading_a_Dedicated_Server

How to switch game branches:

1. Exit the game
   
2. Right click on Garry's Mod in Steam and select Properties
   
3. Go to the Betas tab and select your desired branch

None - This is the normal version of the game
Pre-Release - This is the next update
Dev - This is a bleeding edge version of the game, expect it to contain more bugs than usual
