Find addons outside the Friends Uploads menu

Rank #2
- USE YOUR DICE WELL - It’s in the tagline of the game: “Dice Break The Rules.” Being able to choose not to follow the lead suit when it’s advantageous to you can be huge! Don’t ignore collecting dice.
- MANIPULATE THE X CARDS - Having the most X’s is bad: they each count as one negative point. You might be able to feed your x cards to the perceived scoring leader.
- HOLDING ONTO CARDS - Because you score cards left in hand, it can be a fun challenge to try and keep well-scoring cards not be pulled out by the trick-taking rules.
- ART BY BETH SOBEL - "Mori" is the Latin word for death and the Japanese word for forest. Both of these interpretations are represented in the artwork of this card game.
- PRAISE FOR MORI - "a fresh take on a familiar genre that will be an easy learn for fans of this type of card game." BGG User KRWoods1
If the addon does not appear in the game
Check whether it is enabled
Open Addons and check the addon’s enabled state. Subscribing and enabling are separate: a disabled addon is not loaded. The Addons Menu documentation explains that addons can be toggled on or off: Garry’s Mod Addons Menu.

Manual installation is a separate option
If you already have an addon folder downloaded from another source, Facepunch documents placing it in Garry’s Mod’s garrysmod/addons/ folder. This installs a folder you already have; it does not provide the Friends Uploads browsing and subscription workflow. See Facepunch’s Addons documentation.
Whether a particular addon works with your setup is not guaranteed by the menu or Workshop subscription process. These instructions also do not establish that a multiplayer server automatically synchronizes every addon.
