Three different programs?

Not sure what you mean. All you have to do is download the content pack and stick it in your addons folder (steamapps/user/garrysmod/garrysmod/addons/).

For some reason, when I joined the server BEFORE installing the addon it didn't work. When I took the contents of the addon and dropped it in my garrysmod folder, everything worked.

This might seem like a silly question, but have you tried restarting gmod?

[Frostblade85]

Yes I restart gmod after I finish downloading the mod, I have also tried logging off and back on, It has not worked.

Odd.

Check your garrysmod/addons/(elevator content name)/maps and see if the map is there.

You said you merged folders, so I'm assuming if it's not there, it'd be in garrysmod/maps/elevator.bsp too.

Ok I finished downloading it now I put it in the garrysmod>garrysmod>addon by double clicking the addon folder right?

/steamapps/user/garrysmod/garrysmod/addons/elevator/info.txt

That's how the folder structure should be after you copy the files.

[Frostblade85]

My addons folder leads to another addon folder that leads to elevator.bsp

/steamapps/user/garrysmod/garrysmod/addons/addons/elevator/ ?

You don't want that.

Move the elevator one folder up, so it's

/steamapps/user/garrysmod/garrysmod/addons/elevator/

[Frostblade85]

Great now I have garrysmod>garrysmod>addons>addons>elevator how do I move it up? Am I supposed to click the addons folder and just put the elevator folder in my first addon folder?

Yeah. The second addons folder shouldn't exist.
