    A major update has been released. You will need to restart your servers for players with the new version of the game to join.

    Featured changes include stability improvements and various exploit fixes, along with a few handy additions for developers. Here are some of the highlights:

    Improved text rendering on OSX


    The OSX version of the font system has been heavily reworked for more consistency and better readability. No more tiny text in the console!

    Improved networked variables


    The previously obsolete NWVars have been remade from scratch and now provide the same features and speed benefits as NetworkVars (formerly known as DTVars). Unlike NetworkVars, NWVars require no prior initialization and are identified by a name rather than a numerical index, making them suitable for every type of entity while minimizing conflicts with other addons.

    As a result, the maximum number of NetworkVars per entity has been reduced from 64 to 32 to reduce server load.

    Individual texture replacements


    Every texture in a model can now be replaced separately using the newly added function Entity:SetSubMaterial, allowing for a near infinite number of wacky combinations.

    Workshop publishing tools for Linux and Mac


    The tools used to distribute addons for Workshop distribution (gmad and gmpublish) are now available in the Linux and Mac versions of the game. You can learn more about these tools in the wiki.
