Garry's Mod Addons Question

[blocula]

Just one quick question.
I have Garry's Mod (not the mod, the actual game).
I have add-ons installed in my game. Is there a way to see my add-ons in the game in the folders area? o.o

If it's still unclear of what my question is, I will explain with more detail:
When you play GMod, and you want to spawn a model in, you have to press and hold "Q". Then, you can navigate through the folders on the left of the screen, and pick the model you want to spawn in the middle of the screen.
If possible, how can I make it to where I can spawn add-on models through that same process?

The bottom left of the spawn menu has other folders like Games or Addons, click the [+] next to Addons and you'll see the list of models you've downloaded from the workshop

Not all models show up, only some of my installed models show, but the rest don't, is there some way to make them show? o-o

Gmod 13 no longer supports Gmod 12's way of having addons, which was having folders with an info.txt in the garrysmod/garrysmod/addons directory, however, if you download the Legacy Addon Browser from the workshop and rename all of the info text documents to addon, the Legacy Addon Browser will do it's best to sense the folders with an addon.txt and make them appear in the form of a Legacy Addons folder in the bottom left of the spawn menu under the Addons folder

Actually this is not true.
As of one of the latest updates to Garry's Mod, legacies don't require an info/addon file, they just need to be a proper addon. But yeah, get the legacy browser.

Ok, thanks for the help! I will certainly get Legacy! :P
