Hello everyone, i'm having this issue with Garry's mod where the game gets stuck in the loading screen. Main menu works fine, but after selecting a map and starting, the game starts loading the map and everything but the screen gets stuck there. I can move, i can change weapons and everything but i can't see anything because the game stucked in the loading screen.
The problem started today when i added some parameters to the autoexec file which i backed up in case i messed it up. I restored the autoxec file and still have this problem. I also uninstalled/reinstalled the game and the problem remains unsolved. It's not the first time i boot up garry's mod in a while, since i played yesterday without any issues.
Anyone knows a solution?
Thanks!!
What did you put in the autoexec file?
cl_maxrenderable_dist 7000
cl_detaildist 5000
mat_compressedtextures 0
mat_queue_mode 2
mat_bumpmap 1
mat_clipz 0
mat_autoexposure_max 2
mat_autoexposure_min 2
mat_disable_bloom 1
mat_specular 0
Mat_mipmaptextures 0
r_lod 0
r_flashlightshadowatten 0
r_projectedtexture_filter 0
r_DrawBeams 0
mat_depthbias_shadowmap 0
mat_slopescaledepthbias_shadowmap 0
r_shadowcolor 255 255 255
r_flashlightdepthres (this last one had a number that i forgot to remove and inserted the command with a parameter not suitable for my harware)
This are the commands from Vioxtar's tutorial for soft lights.
Thanks for the reply.
Back up your config.cfg (just copy it somewhere else on your computer so you don't permanently lose any binds if you have them), turn off cloud sync in Steam for Garry's Mod here:

And then delete the config.cfg file, start Garry's Mod and try to load singleplayer again.
Purpose of disabling Steam cloud sync prevents it from putting your potentially broken cfg file back.
Ok, i'll try that. Thank you for your answer
