Server Configuration:
- Create Backup: Backups are not automatic. Log in to your GPORTAL account, navigate to 'My Servers', select your server, go to 'Administration' > 'Backup', and click 'Create Backup'. The server will stop and restart.
- Install Steam Workshop Content: Generate an API Key, log in to GPORTAL, select your server, stop it, go to 'Basic Settings', enter the API Key and Workshop Collection ID, save, and restart the server. Only complete collections work.
- Install DarkRP: Download DarkRP from GitHub, unzip it, rename the folder to 'darkrp'. Connect via FTP to your GPORTAL server, navigate to '/garrysmod/gamemodes', stop the server, select 'DarkRP' as the game mode in 'Basic Settings', and restart. Update DarkRP every 1-2 months by repeating the FTP steps.
- Upload Maps: Use an FTP client to connect to your server. Navigate to the '/maps' folder and upload your map files. Restart the server for changes to take effect. Maps in workshop collections are not transferred this way.
