After new October update gun, gun selection, lua coded weapons are missing sounds for me.

Okay i'm keep this short unless someone wants me to make a video about it: After the newest GMOD October update half of my sounds simply don't play anymore, these include: Weapon shooting sounds (Specifically LUA coded ones) Reload sounds on almost all weapons, except default HL2 ones. Weapon selection menu sound is missing, although there are no missing sound errors in the console. Sometimes footstep sounds are missing too. Anyone else having this? I tried reinstalling, deleting suspicious addons and all that kind of jazz but nothing did work for now... Any help?

I haven't heard of anyone receiving that problem since the update, but problems with sounds not playing have happened before. Try disabling/removing all of your addons. If that doesn't work, delete your ~/common/garrysmod folder, disable Steam Cloud sync, and reinstall.

Recorded a video since more problems appeared I also did disable all addons: [video=youtube;Y9kbc78qbJs]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9kbc78qbJs&feature=youtu.be[/video] What is missing: Tool gun sounds Some physics sounds Fall Damage sounds Gun switch.

Some of those sounds are from other games, like Half-Life 2: Deathmatch and Half-Life: Episode 2, so you will need to have those games installed and mounted to hear the sounds. Secondly, add -noworkshop -noaddons to your Steam Launch Options for Garry's Mod and try again. Do it and don't tell me that "you have already tried it".

Also yes, i own and have mounted both of those games.

Something like pirated game content packs.

Just eliminate them in bulk and narrow it down, then.

If it's an addon overriding the sounds, you can run the following in your console to find out which: [code]whereis sound/common/wpn_moveselect.wav[/code] If that doesn't work, I'd assume that an addon is overriding the sound scripts. You can run this other command to show a list of the files it is trying to play on screen: [code]snd_show 1[/code]
