And now here’s a step by step guide for downloading add-ons to Gmod:
Step 1: Go to Steam>Steam Library
Check your games library and click on Garry's Mod!
Step 2: Access the Workshop for Garry’s mod:
Click on the tab with the Workshop text
Step 3: Accessing the workshop and using the search box:
After clicking “Workshop”, click on the search box and type the name of the add-on that you want to download(for example, WAC Aircraft).
Step 4: Finding the add-on and downloading it:
After you found the add-on, click Subscribe and wait for it to download. You can check whether it downloaded the add-on by clicking “DOWNLOADS” in the bottom middle of Steam.
Step 5: Launching Garry’s mod/starting new game:
After you have downloaded the add-on, click on the “Start New Game” tab!
Step 6: Picking a map:
Pick a map that you want to play on, I suggest picking a map that has a large skybox so that you don’t crash into an invisible wall every 5 seconds!
Step 7: Finding the add-on in single-player
After you have loaded the map, hold Q and navigate to Entities>WAC Aircraft. You should have a list of aircraft to pick from!
The location of the add-on will depend on the content of the add-on(NPC add-ons will go to the NPC tab, vehicle add-ons to the Vehicle tab, etc).
Step 8: Using the downloaded add-on
