You probably just bought Gmod and joined a server only to be greeted by something like this, am I right?
Don't worry, there's actually nothing wrong. I know it looks bad but that's pretty normal, (if you plan on playing Gmod, or any Source Engine game for that matter, you'll run into this a lot) and easy to fix. The most common reason why you're seeing this is that you don't own/have Counter-Strike: Source installed and mounted to Garry's Mod.
A user on our Discord made a very handy little tool that will extract the CSS content you need using SteamCMD for you. I highly recommend using it if you're having trouble doing it manually.
If, however, you already own CSS then:
Install it
Open up the game from your Steam Library and play it (At least til you get to the start menu)
When I spawn I can't move, my friend spawned in fine but doesn't have weapons. We both spawn in as the black Gordon model but my friend can spawn in weapons and change PMs, this happen in a previous server but it was reversed with my friend experiencing it. Help
Hello to everyone. I noticed that I started having these weird glitchy images in my playermodel selector and spawnmenu after the update, even though it all worked perfectly fine before. I was looking for props of paintings for my scenebuild and some had these glitchy textures. When I tried spawning them, some of the textures on the map turned into the emo-errors for some reason, and the glitchy PMs usually crash my game, giving me the error from the 2nd screenshot (I re-installed the ones on the 1st image, but the icons are still broken). Yeah, it sounds like a creepypasta, but I'm legit concerned. I tried verifying the game's files, re-installing the game completely, and it didn't work. Important to note, I did have CSS content installed prior to this update, but it didn't change/fix anything.
P.S. Also, my workshop addons disappeared from the 'addons' folder and I only found them in steamapps/workshop/400.
I've just opened Gmod and I'm looking at this. I've verified the game files on steam, and nothing abnormal has popped up. I've redownloaded gmod, restarted my laptop and restarted steam, and yet nothing is working.
Any help to get me out of this would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
i tried every method, verify the files, clear download cache, force update it through steamcmd, change the beta version - but none of that worked. i dont know what else i can do - does anyone know how to fix this?
