"I have these games hl2, hl2 ep1 & ep2, portal, L4D2, Portal, Team fortress, And garrys mod of course :P" You are missing CS:S! On the serious side. Tried reinstalling?!

What are your specs?

[QUOTE=bootv2;25195114]are you using an intel gpu? I had exactly the same problem when using intel graphics[/QUOTE] Yes I´m using Intel graphics :( (I know Intel´s graphics suck:(:( ) And Yes I´ve tried reinstalling

[QUOTE=Dashiel;25194487]What are your specs?[/QUOTE] If you dont know how download speccy. Speccy tells you everything about your computer. Download it [B][URL="http://www.piriform.com/speccy"] here.[/URL][/B]

Or Everest Home does the same.

Intel Pentium 4 640? Isn't that really old?

Yeah, your specs are terrible. Problem found.

[QUOTE=Cyberuben;25221418]Intel Pentium 4 640? Isn't that really old?[/QUOTE] Yes..

Engine error or?

You can try adding -dxlevel 80 to Right click on GMod > Properties > Set launch options.

No, its his specs. Low processor, and terrible video card.

[QUOTE=FuryBlitz;25221733]No, its his specs. Low processor, and terrible video card.[/QUOTE] odd why can I play Left 4 dead 2, Half life 2, and about any other valve game without any problem?

Garry's Mod is actually slightly harder on the computer. The physics engine has to work overtime. Same with your NPC problem. AI pushes your computer past its limits. Half-Life 2's explosions are all scripted and physics engine has to do less work. Left 4 Dead 2 zombies are very simple; most only have melee attacks.

Solution: Build a better PC.

[QUOTE=TheDevilsAdmin;25216655]Yes I´m using Intel graphics :( (I know Intel´s graphics suck:(:( )[/QUOTE] [joke]Well there's your problem.[/joke] But seriously. Intel GPUs don't work with anything higher end than Lego Island 2. The GPU was never designed to run games. You'll need a new GPU for a desktop or laptop for a laptop. Specifically, one for gaming. I recommend the ATI Raidon HD 5770 for ATI fans and Mac users, and the nVidia GTX 480 for nVidia fans. Of course, this stuff is overkill for anything based on source, but you'll need overkill these days. People like to go overboard with their creations.

[QUOTE=bootv2;25266082]that's true. but since the CPU is outdated as well a completely new pc would do best. as processor I advise the Intel i5 750.[/QUOTE] i5? go the whole hog and get an i7 :v:

ATI Radeon HD5970 is what I have :v:

[/qoute] NOPE

the 5770 is a powerfucker, Make sure all your other shit lines up with it before you buy anything

[QUOTE=TheDevilsAdmin;25224662]odd why can I play Left 4 dead 2, Half life 2, and about any other valve game without any problem?[/QUOTE] At 5 FPS yes :frog: Garrysmod counts on the computer not dying when its doing stuff which mostly ends in NULL pointers

[QUOTE=Tobba;25296466]At 5 FPS yes :frog: Garrysmod counts on the computer not dying when its doing stuff which mostly ends in NULL pointers[/QUOTE] Nope at full FPS^^

So, you get 299 FPS?

Works just fine for me.

Intel GMA HD is actually decent. I can play all Source games without any lag (except in foggy areas). Average FPS is 70-90. I'd still prefer an honest-to-god graphics card, though; this thing heats up like a bitch.

[QUOTE=The freeman;25390217]So, you get 299 FPS?[/QUOTE] Ok not full but GOOD like 114

[QUOTE=TheDevilsAdmin;25427972]Ok not full but GOOD like 114[/QUOTE] I doubt you know what FPS is, let alone are able to achieve that FPS on a rig like yours.
