• Gmod lags when I am not looking at the ground
    5 replies, posted
Hey guys. Ive noticed that my Gmod has been lagging lately on my computer. The specs are good enough to play it, and I can play it lagless and my much shittier computer. I do not have a lot of addons (under 10) and my specs seem normal. I can also play Grand Theft Auto 4 with maxed graphics with no lag. Here are my specs: Widows 7 Ultimate (Service Pack 1) 4.0 GB Ram NVIDIA GeForce 9800M GTS 1.0 GB GDDR3 SDRAM (YES I FUCKING KNOW, but I don't think this is the problem) Its a Gateway P-805u FX, about a year old now. I believe it is stock. Anyways if you can help a retard, that would be great.
Does it lag in single player or multiplayer or both? Also, are you seeing noticeable drops in fps? Turn on net_graph 3 in console to see your fps.
I have the same issue. I always get FPS drops sometimes when playing on diffrent servers. My friends don't get it so it's not the server. I kinda have a moster computer... Even freakin running Battlefield 3 so it should be no problem to run GMod. Here's the specs: AMD Quad Core 2.6 GHz with Radeon HD Graphics 8 GB DDR3 RAM AMD Radeon HD 6520G

Runs Battlefield 3 on highest quality without any problems so I guess it's pretty good? EDIT: Failed in my last post since it's 2.6 GHz, not 1.6 lol.
It may just be the servers your playing on or you have a clientside addon that is using a lot of game resources, horribly coded esp's and wall hack scripts can cause this. I would try one of the problem servers with a vanilla garrysmod and go from there.
