Server-Side Assets

While players need CSS to see textures, the server needs CSS to handle the physics of the map. If you do not mount CSS on the server-side, players may find themselves falling through certain floors, being unable to drive over bridges, or experiencing “Missing Map” disconnects.

​
1. Standard Activation (Automatic)

Most FREAKHOSTING GMod instances include the cstrike files by default. To activate them:
  1. Go to your Startup tab.
  2. Locate the Mount CSS toggle.
  3. Set it to Enabled.
  4. Restart your server.

​
2. Manual Verification (mount.cfg)

If the automatic toggle does not work for your custom build, you must edit the source file directly:
  1. Navigate to: /garrysmod/cfg/mount.cfg
  2. Open the file and ensure it follows this structure: 
    "mountcfg"
{
    "cstrike"    "/home/container/cstrike"
}
  3. Save the file and Restart.

​
3. Testing the Mount

To confirm your server has successfully recognized the files, type mount into the Console.
  • Successful: It will list cstrike followed by the directory path.
  • Failed: The list will be empty or return an error. If this happens, verify that the cstrike folder exists in your root directory.
