Startup CTD -> Could not get client.dll interface from library client
155 replies, posted
So I went to start up GMod a few minutes ago, and it began an update; I checked the update news for it and none has been listed since the "1 Million Sales" post.
It took an unusually long time to start, then it flashed the load screen for an instant followed by a CTD with this:

I'm assuming this could've been another TF2 update, but it worked a few hours ago, and I've changed nothing since then.
If anyone could offer a possible solution as to what could've possibly gone wrong, that would be grand.
Thanks in advance.
Edit:
GMod just updated again, I'll see if there's a change.
Negative, same error. Thanks Valve for informing Garry beforehand; oh well, just wait it out I guess.
Vavle broke gmod again deal with it.
Funny thing, I knew this was going to happen today.
Always happens on my day off, figures. lol
My server seems fine....
But it will not update for some odd reason.
Everything I can see without connecting to it looks ok...
Maybe that will help someone?
Jesus this is fucking annoying.
First my favorite servers get DDoS'ed out the asshole, now gmod is just broken.
ffs.
Damn, I have this issue. I hope Garry gets it fixed soon :3
garry get off your ass and fix it damnit.
Happens all the time, you get used to it.
Another major source engine update, another wrench Gabe throws into Gmod for Garry to fix.
[QUOTE=Jova;32768552]garry get off your ass and fix it damnit.[/QUOTE] it wasn't Garry that broke it was VALVe when they tried to update either TF2 or one of the other games they released on steam

More like happens every time.
Dammit Valve!
So basically gmod is down?
[QUOTE=RyanH;32768861]So basically gmod is down?[/QUOTE]
yup
Ima go cry in a corner. I need my gmod!
hey im new to this but can u use some type of controler besides the keypad to play garrysmod??
[QUOTE=RyanH;32768861]So basically gmod is down?[/QUOTE]
Oh yes it is, and Garry has to clean up Gabe's mess now. Not the first time and certainly not the last (Unless you can force steam to never update the core games Gmod depends on).
To be on the safe side. I've forced HL2:DM, CS:S, DoD:S, and TF2 to never update.
hey u on this?

Should of added Broke Garrys Mod
Damn i had just made a new skin for myself too. i went to test it out and that, :ugh its just a matter of waiting for the fix

Yeah always blame valve
[QUOTE=JonM;32769105]Yeah always blame valve[/QUOTE]
VALVe has a nasty habit of ruining our games till they FINALLY release the necessary code for Garry to fix it
[QUOTE=JonM;32769105]Yeah always blame valve[/QUOTE]It is valves fault though. They update their engine without telling the creator of a game with over a million copies that his game is going to not work any longer. They just release it and wait for him to realize its fucked.

I agree, I wish that VALVe would give Garry a heads up, like "Yo Garry, were like releasing a source engine update huuuurrp so u might wanna uhhhhh take some of this code and uhhh fix ur game duuurp" seriously, i remember like a year ago they NEVER(or hardly ever) updated the source engine, are they planning HL2 ep3? or perhaps HL3? the combine advisors are hiding, just waiting to eat ur brainz! :tinfoil:
I saw this problem in L4D long ago.
Maybe it would work again if you deinstall everything except GMod and HL2? I'm going to restore older versions of the files out of a backup and report you if I can play again =D
First post btw!
Edit: OK... no backup... It's funny... I always tell other people to make backups because it is important and stuff... And what is now? I have an empty USB HDD ready for store my Time Machine backups...
Edit2: Rename doesn't work!
Great. The first time I want to play GMOD to actually build instead of pose since 2 months ago. There seems to be a lot of people viewing this thread so I assume a lot of people are having the same problem. Also, I noticed that at first it wouldn't load GMOD at all and I noticed steam was downloading (updating) TF2. Then it was having this error.
Gabe Sat on Garrys mod again.....
This sucks,i just downloaded everything required to run space build :(.
Valve you need to inform everyone that you are going to crew Gmod up
so that we know when we come home we won't relax and play a ever extensive game.
