HOW TO GET TOYBOX BACK IN GMOD 2019 MOD
Whatever form Garry's Mod 2 (or Sandbox, which is what Newman has previously said he wished he had called GMod in the first place) takes, it's likely to be quite a popular platform for people who remember all of the fun which was possible in the original version. " Holy sh*t, thanks for the support," he said, before jokingly adding " hope you're not gonna be disappointed when you find out GMod2 is an iOS match 3 game made in unity." Now, however, it appears to be back up and running, if Newman's recent message (embedded below) is any indication:Īfter the onslaught of support and messages from fans who were ecstatic about the potential return to the Valve and Steam modding scene, Newman posted a secondary message thanking all of his followers for their kind words. Sandbox was initially revealed by Facepunch Studios (a video game company created by Newman) in 2017, but progress on the project was halted in 2019.
However, when speaking with PCGamesN Newman said that the image he posted was not actually about the literal Garry's Mod 2 (which was originally announced as a work-in-progress in 2015) but instead is referencing its spiritual successor, S&box.

Now, many, many years later, it looks like the much-fabled sequel to Garry's Mod, GMod2 may finally be resuming production, at least in spirit. The game also gained popularity due to being bundled with Counter-Strike: Source, which it had to do because Newman's program required a working Valve Source-coded game to function properly. Garry's Mod not only led to thousands of players being able to create their own toybox-like experiences with assets from official Valve games like Half-Life 2 and Portal, but also allowed them to mod the program themselves. Built on top of a modified version of Valve's Source engine and then, due to the mod's own popularity, bought by Valve itself and released as a standalone project, Garry's Mod was one of the most-downloaded programs on Steam for a long time and still elicits fond memories from anyone who spent time poking around with Valve's toys.
