Not trying to flame here but god, you guys are kinda stupid, the game needs time to intialize after loading up! say when you get up early do you have to sit still or stretch? that's kinda what the game is doing! it needs time! be patient
I am sorry but that is a really dumb answer as the game did work with no lag at all but all the sudden this happened so all the "initialize" stuff is a load of lies. Also why should we have to pay for something that doesn’t work properly and even if it is just 6 minutes why should I have to wait when it's not my fault and a complete pain in the arse.
i think 693 ppl have the lag it is two thig's frist you download too mucht+you download pron secend you have un bad pc + you download too much for addons
It could be about downloading and installing certain stuff. But that would not explain why it lags on a clean version of Garry's mod or episode 2.
yeah your rhigt
I have this same problem. And i see this message in console when the i open gmod10: SteamMountDepot: Error SteamMountFilesystem 420 - (dependency 1 (312))
SteamMountFilesystem(6024,312,0x1949fc74=,0x1949fd74) failed with error 5: No Steam Content Servers are available
and: SteamMountDepot: Error SteamMountFilesystem 400 - (dependency 1 (312))
SteamMountFilesystem(6024,312,0x1949fc74=,0x1949fd74) failed with error 5: No Steam Content Servers are available
and this comes last : SteamMountDepot: Error SteamMountFilesystem 440 - (dependency 0 (312))
SteamMountFilesystem(6024,312,0x1949fc74=,0x1949fd74) failed with error 5: No Steam Content Servers are available
I got good specs on my pc and gmod worked fine for like 2 months and all sudden this happens. Tried re-installing, deleting addons, logging steam, and then the kill "nSvcAppFlt.exe" works but i cant be assed to kill it everytime i try to play gmod10 :s Help!
LISTEN! the game most likely is having to deal with every damn addon THEREFORE it needs to load all the stuff before it runs smoothly like when you DL a big pack it lags when initalizing the spawn icons when it's at the "LOADING" screen it just loads the core game data , the more you download the more this data gets modified it cuases longer load times and puts more strain on your system END OF. (not intended to flame)
Drsalvador you’re completely wrong because like I said before it lags on a clean version of Garry’s mod and is nothing to do with system strain. As well I also get those error messages in the console. I have also noticed that at the end of the "laggy start" it says "you have connected to the steam community" at the bottom right. Then if you do bring up the overlay it says "no connection could be made to the steam master sever".
Well something like that anyway, so i don’t really know what that means is it lagging all that time just to connect to the Steam master severs?
[QUOTE=kukiric]Specs?
Just make sure you have at least 512MB ram and a 2.0GHZ processor, or the game WILL be slow.
And i think this game can't run now on minimally problematic systems, try a system and cache defrag, then a restart, and try gmod again.[/QUOTE]
1.7 works with the right graphics card.
[b]Edit:[/b]
Is this happening on a laptop or a stationary?
Vista or xp?
Specs? No?
It could be due to hardware.
This is what I am running:
"AMD Athlon duel core 2.2Ghz 4200"
"Nvidia 8800GTX"
"2GB of ddr2"
"ASUS Crosshair motherboard"
"Windows xp sp2 32bit"
And yer it's a desktop Pc.
Bollocks that, that is the problem I ran gmod on max graphics on a single core 3800 7900gs, ddr2 537 and a similar motherboard if not the same. With NO LAG whatsoever unless related to my internet or network or the server. I say ran because now I am using 4 gig of 800 9800gx rest of the specifications are the same though.
One possibility is your paging file is to big, you can also try ending some unnecessary processes before you play gmod. My PF size is 657 although just over 1 gig when gmod is running. Smooth running for me, (similar paging file size when I had the lower specs).
Found the problem, when you start gmod, the multiplayer list refreshes, causing major lag as it tries to access all the servers. If you go onto join miltiplayer or whatever and click stop refresh, it will end the lag.
Hence why leaving it for 5 min's will work. It finds all servers.

Dude I have 10 add-ons and the thing runs slower than hl2 cinematic mod on medium. I have a 3.2 GHz Pentium 4, 1.5gigs of ram and a Ati X300 128Mb. However, I have the same problem on my gameing rig, which has AMD +4800 2.5gigs of ram Nvidia 7600 GS 256Mb. Its the program not the computer.

however you don't really see the multi-player screen until its done loading
My loading screen takes longer then ever. I'll try this.
[b]Edit:[/b]
Nope doesn't work can anyone tell me how to make the loading screen shorter?
Same here but mine is a 1.8 ghz INTEl so its gonna suck.
And im on vista so plzzzzzzzzz fix
I have one idea, try deleting all orange box games, local content and their files, I'm trying that right now
Run in windowed mode. Solved my problem.
Gmod is running so slow I'm joining a Zombie Survival map right now and it has been an HOUR and im not exaggerating I am chatting with someone they first talked to me at 9:06 EST it is now 10 and I still have 16 textures and 12 models I once deleted all of my addons and that made my GMOD fast but then when I am building I cant do anything really so I don't know what I should do its a pain to do anything like when I set off a nuke in single player my driver stops working then I have to wait for the drivers to come back -_-
Has anyone though of clearing their Cache\dua folder? and the process sounds like its from Nvdia, try fiddling with the control panel. Instead of putting it to "let the application decide" try the quality, balanced, performance. I am sorry if this is wrong.

Thanks, if you read the errror you just posted, it says at the end "No Steam Content servers avaliable." I'm no expert but I'm pretty smart, apparently I think this "content" server has been hacked, crashed, or maybe the dude running it got evicted and sabatoged it. At any rate this will most likely be fixed A.S.A.P. seeing as if I am right it's a small problem.
i have the same problem as you guys..... with every game. my computer sucks.lol
