Creating a GSLT Token for Your Garry's Mod Server
Generate a Steam Game Server Login Token (GSLT) required for your Garry's Mod server to appear in the server browser.
A GSLT (Steam Game Server Login Token) is required by Valve for your Garry's Mod server to appear in the public server list. Here is how to create one and add it to your server.
Generate the Token
Go to the Steam Game Server Account Management page and log in with your Steam account. Under App ID, enter 4000 for Garry's Mod, then name the memo anything you want.
Open the Startup Page
Visit the XGamingServer Panel and select your Garry's Mod server. In the sidebar, go to Startup.
Enter Your Token
Enter your token under Game Server Login Token (GSLT).
Restart Your Server
Click Console in the sidebar and then restart your server.
📝 Note: Each Garry's Mod server you run requires its own unique GSLT.
FAQ
What are the requirements for making a GSLT?
Valve has some guidelines on what accounts are able to create a Game Server Login Token:
- Your Steam account must not be currently community banned or locked.
- Your Steam account must not be limited.
- Your Steam account must have a qualifying registered phone.
- Your Steam account must own the game for which you are creating a game server account.
- Your Steam account may create 1000 game server accounts.
Can I get a GSLT Ban?
Valve has token banned server owners in the past for violating their terms. If Valve token bans you, you can no longer host servers from your account. We strongly suggest you view Valve's Terms of Service to see what is and is not allowed.
