[TIPS] How to upload an addon to workshop

Intro

Welcome, here I will teach you how to upload addons to the Garry's mod workshop, either because you want to upload content for your server or fix a tool from an old addon.

Locate your Garry's Mod directory

They go to this path to be able to convert files and upload them to the workshop:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\addons

Convert folders to gma files

then download in generator and uploader of addons and gma files:


extract the GMA Generator folder inside the addons folder:

When you open the GMA generator, it will ask you to enter the folder name of your addon.

As they put the name of the folder, the command to convert the files will appear in the name of the command window.

after that, it will say that the file was created successfully inside the folder called 'gma':

Upload gma files to the workshop

And then the process is the same as the previous one, they select their addon and an attached icon
