JBMod Server Hosting, Explained
New to JBMod?
What is JBMod?
JBMod is the first mod released for the retail version of Half-Life 2, first made in 2004 by jb55 and the community on the HL2World forums, and now free on Steam. It brings back the physgun cut from the final game: grab, move and freeze anything you can see. Spawn props, ragdolls and entities, connect them with welds and ropes, and turn the world into a physics playground. On multiplayer servers players build together or play modes such as Sandbox, JBDM, Co-Op and Fishing.
The Legendary Physgun.
Seize, move and freeze objects with the tool cut from Half-Life 2.
Build Contraptions.
Weld and rope objects together into working, interactive creations.
Why rent a server?
What is JBMod Server Hosting?
A JBMod dedicated server keeps your sandbox online when the host is not playing, without a PC left on at home or ports to forward. With Physgun you set the server name, start map, max players and passwords in the panel, server rules in the config editor, list Workshop maps and add-ons to download on start, pick the public release or the development build, and get full file access over SFTP and SSH.
Always Online.
Your server stays up when you log off, so your group can build any time.
Full Control.
Set your map, rules and passwords, and add Workshop maps and add-ons.
