Extracting the PERP content from Garry's Mod
In order to extract the content from Garry's Mod, you will first need to navigate to the following directory:
Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\4000
Once here, you will need open the following the following folders:
- 2897742669
- 2103606343
- 2894498893
Inside each of these folders you will find a file called
content.gma. These contain all the models, materials, particles, etc. for each of the addons that you'll need. However, in order to actually access this content you will need to navigate in a separate window/tab to the following folder:
Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\bin
Once here, locate the program called
gmad.exe. This is how Garry's Mod reads .gma files but it can also be used to unpack them into folders that we can then mount into SFM. In order to unpack them, simply drag the content.gma onto gmad.exe. This will then open a window for a few moments with gmad.exe as it extracts the content. Once complete, you will see inside the same folder that a new folder has been created called
content. This contains everything you will need for the next step below.
If you want your content to remain up-to-date, make sure to re-extract the content and re-mount into SFM so you have the latest models and materials when they release.
