If your post asks a question that is answered here, it will be removed.

In the future we may expand this FAQ based on what people ask; in that case the answer will be added on the FAQ and the original post will remain up, but any following post asking the same question will be removed.

How do I get access?

Every developer in S&box gets a few Invite Codes every week, the amount varies by an unknown variable, probably how active you are as a developer. These invite codes can be redeemed in to get access to S&box, which gets added to your Steam library instantly.

My access was revoked?

If you received a Steam notification saying your access to S&box has been revoked, this mean you haven't been active for 5 months. You may use another Invite Code to get in.

When will S&box release?

This is not known, not even Facepunch can say.

How much will S&box cost?

This is not known yet.

What happened to the steam workshop?

S&box's content will reside in , this gives greater control over what your game and the engine can do.

There are no resources, how do I start developing?

There are many guides on the wiki, tutorials on YouTube, and community servers that have help channels, without counting the main Discord server which has different channels where you can ask for help as well. There's templates you can start off from and virtually every game on S&box is open source, a good way to find what you need is through the search function on Facepunch's GitHub and Intellisense provided by Visual Studio.

I have been game banned, what does that mean?

You've been naughty, you were either breaking Facepunch's EULA, said slurs/hate speech in the global chat, or were caught selling Invite Codes. You can try appealing on the Forums but it's not guaranteed a Facepunch employee will see it and it's pretty much guaranteed you will be made the laughing stock.

I was banned from the Discord?

You either pissed a Facepunch employee off or broke the rules, there is virtually no way for you to know the reason but you can do some guessing based on your behaviour. You can try appealing on the forums but it's not guaranteed a Facepunch employee will see it and it's pretty much guaranteed you will be made the laughing stock.

Why can't I use Valve assets? (Half Life, Team Fortress, Counter Strike)

Valve requested a significant cut from revenue and Facepunch wants S&box games to not be restricted to a single art style.

Why can't I port assets from other games?

You can, but for your private projects, as long as you don't upload them on asset.party. Anything you upload is going to end up on Facepunch's servers, and they don't want copyright infringing content on there.
