LightRP was sandbox with some added RP elements. ⤶ LightRP was released at the end of January 2007⤶ DarkRP was created as a spoof of LightRP by Rickster, somewhere during the summer of 2007.⤶ Note: There was a DarkRP in 2006, but that was an entirely different gamemode., over this time it has grown into one of, if not the biggest gamemode in all of Garry's Mod. In 2008, Unib5 was administrator on a DarkRP server called EuroRP, owned by Jiggu. FPtje frequently joined this server to prop kill en masse. While Jiggu loved watching the chaos unfold, Unib5 hated it and banned FPtje on sight. Since Jiggu kept unbanning FPtje, Unib5 felt powerless. In an attempt to stop FPtje, Unib5 put FPtje's favourite prop killing props (the locker and the sawblade) in the default blacklist of DarkRP in an update. This in turn enraged FPtje, as he swore to make an update in secret that would suddenly pop up and overthrow the established version. As a result, DarkRP 2.3.1 was released in December 2008. After a bit of a fight, FPtje became the official updater of DarkRP.⤶ ⤶ ⤶ DarkRP by default has an Administration Mod called [FAdmin](https://github.com/FPtje/DarkRP/tree/master/gamemode/modules/fadmin) and a Prop Protection System called [FPP (Falco's PP)](https://github.com/FPtje/Falcos-Prop-protection).⤶ Modifying DarkRPs default settings is simplified by using an addon called [DarkRP Modification](https://github.com/FPtje/darkrpmodification) created by FPtje to stop people from editing the core files and breaking stuff. <br/> ## Gamemodes DarkRP is expansive even beyond the DarkRP gamemode itself, people modify it into other Roleplay gamemodes such as the following. * City RP * Police RP * SCP RP * Starwars RP * Zombie RP * Zombie RP * Manga RP ⤶ * Military RP ⤶ * HL2 RP ⤶ * Medieval RP⤶ Modifying the default DarkRP gamemode into other gamemodes is not recommended and you should use a different Roleplay Base designed to be modified or use the [DarkRP Derived](https://github.com/FPtje/DarkRP/releases/tag/derived). <br/> ## Ecosystem Because DarkRP is used so widely a lot of paid and non-paid addons support it unlike other Roleplay Gamemodes that are out there making it perfect for a quick plug and play server. <br/> ## Controls & Commands | Key | Function | |:---:|:---------| | <key>F1</key> | Motd Panel or Information | <key>F3</key> | Show Mouse | <key>F4</key> | Main Panel | Command | Function | |:-------:|:---------| | `//` or `/ooc` | Out Of Character (Global Chat) | `/` or `/a` or `//` or `/ooc` | Out Of Character (Global Chat) | `/y` or `/yell` | Yell out, your text appearing in a larger area. | `/pm` | Send another player a private message. <br/> `/pm Player1 Hey you're pretty cool!` | `/me` | make action message. <br/> `/me beckons her to come to him!`⤶ | `/broadcast` | Broadcast something as a mayor.⤶ | `/channel` | Tune into a radio channel.⤶ | `/radio` | Tune into a radio channel.⤶ | `/channel` | Say something through the radio.⤶ | `/g` | Group chat.⤶ | `/moneydrop` | drop money value on ground.⤶ | `/advert` | make an advertisement.
