GMOD-NET-API

Garry's Mod Managed Application Programming Interface

Notice

• This repository is not maintained anymore, it is bugged and i might rewrite it some time later. Consider using this instead https://github.com/cartman300/gmsv_gsharp_win32

What is it?

• It's a C++\CLI Wrapper over Garry's unmanaged GMod Binary Module headers

What can it do?

• It allows you to write binary modules in managed languages

How to install it?

• Put the binary in same directory as hl2.exe (common/garrysmod)

How do i create managed binary modules?

• Get Visual Studio 2012 and NuGet
• Create a C# .dll solution named like your module
• Install Unmanaged Exports from NuGet - this allows you to create static entry points for your module to be loadable by GMod
• Add reference to ManagedWrapper.dll and disable copy to local output, you don't need it in output - it gets automatically loaded from hl2.exe dir
• Write your code!
• Compile, put into garrysmod/lua/bin and require() it ingame!
• Note: Make sure the exported functions (Unmanaged Exports) have to be in a public class, else it won't work!
• Note 2: Also make sure you compile your project as x86, else Unmanaged Exports won't do it's magic!

What if i don't know how to do it/have bug/%insert_shit_here%?

• In case of a bug make an issue here on github
• In case of anything else add one on Steam

Is it possible to embed the wrapper into the module?

• It is, look in the gmsv_cartmanium_win32 project
