Hello. Whenever I start Garry's Mod 13, it gets me to validate all the game files, which takes ages since my laptop is a piece of shit. Furthermore after finishing the validation process Gmod loads up until the main menu, where I can only get to the map selection or server browser and then Steam just disappears, process and everything.
This causes gmod to freeze and I have to Ctrl+Alt+Delete to close the stupid thing.
Please give me a solution to this problem, it's very annoying and I just want to play Garry's Mod. Thanks.
same thing here ill send garry the link to this page
he should be able to fix it.
Well I've tried unsubscribing and uninstalling all my Workshop Addons and that seems to have solved the bug, however I did it from Workshop on a browser.
It probably will work for you so give it a try.
This error usually happens when some library files (dlls) have gotten where they shouldn't. You should try these steps.
Delete "garry's mod/bin"
Open your steam folder, then the steamapps folder, then the folder with your username, then the garry's mod folder. Delete the folder named bin and try playing. If it doesn't work, move into the next step.
Delete garry's mod/garrysmod/bin"
Open the folder in the previous step, then the garrysmod folder. Now delete the bin folder.
Delete any dlls in "garry's mod/"
Sometimes a rogue dll can find its way into the "garry's mod" folder and cause issues. Delete any you see in there. Pay attention - because sometimes there's folders named "libraryname.dll" in there. Delete those too.
If none of this works - consider cleaning completely deleting the Garry's Mod folder.
If I were to do these steps and re-add the maps that I want (some rp_**** maps) would this affect Garry's Mod too?
