[QUOTE=Cloudhunter;26773179][URL=http://xkcd.com/303/] This is what is happening right now.[/URL]
Besides, isn't it good that he is keeping us updated?[/QUOTE]
Haven't you noticed his blog times are very inaccurate?
the 10:37 one was posted, 20 minutes later he posted 10:38.
[QUOTE=hunterNormandy;26773420]garrysmod is my drug, and im suffering from gmod deprive. lol
Garry should have this problem down in maybe at least a day or 2, either that, or hes right now giving a good spanking to the valve team, especially Gabe newell.[/QUOTE]
He could probably fix it tonight.
PC Version working? [highlight] I think not [/highlight]

He didnt update it yet. He said PC is now working on his end. He's working on MAC now.

Fuck Mac. Let's get on with PC first. Mac can wait.
[QUOTE=newton21989;26773290]Heh, you haven't played GMod very long, have you?[/QUOTE]
I have played ever since 2009 in May.
It was cool back then.
I haven't been in Gmod for a couple months, and was just about to start it up tonight when I saw the news post. Sure enough, I get the same crash as everyone else.
Thank you Garry for getting to work on this so fast!
Still, there probably isn't much chance of this getting fixed before Monday, is there? I can't remember Valve ever releasing updates over weekends. I guess there aren't any DIY fixes, either. Oh well, it's not like I don't have other stuff to play with.
relax guys!, lets hold eachother hands and sing some songs till its fixed.
(Ironic)

The last update on a weekend was on 9 October, Saturday.
Aww. Valve doesnt let garry push updates himself? Thats stupid. Didn't know that. they should trust Garry by now..
I thought it was just me so i re-installed gmod (And for some odd reason it clears out my stuff i downloaded for it), only just to find its for everyone. Well i hope it get fixed soon.
Can't he just get a webcam, sign up to UStream, get everything setup, and then we watch how he's doing? Wouldn't it be so much easier to know how long stuff takes?

Well, that's good to know. So maybe it will be sooner than I thought.
Thanks.
Just happened to me. :C
So, when valve will update garrys mod?
I made a flipnote from my DSi. It's still exporting as a .gif image. I'll edit this post when its uploaded to imageshack and ready to go.
[B]UPDATE:[/B]
Ah, here it is

I wanted to watch some NPC wars with dismemberment mod on, but no.
the novelty of such an awesome thing is fading away.
But why on Saturday, why? WHY? Why couldn't it be on Monday?! This is not what I'd been waiting for entire week...

What Garry said on Garrysmod.com:
Client.dll init () in library client failed
Saturday, December 18, 2010 by Garry Newman
I’m aware that this has been happening for the last 6 hours, since Valve updated the engine. I’m going to head into the office right now to look into it and see if I can get a patch to fix it.
This is the cost of being on the newest version of the Source engine. It’s going to happen sometimes. But I’d rather have a days downtime every 6 months than be on a 2 year old version of the Source engine. I hope you agree. I’ll edit this post with updates as I get them.
09:18 – Got into the office. Looking into the issue.
09:24 – Apparently mdlcache is NULL. Uh-oh. Merging code with Valve’s latest.
09:56 – Merging code. It’s slow shoving code about on SVN.
10:07 – Chatting in the steam chat while I’m waiting – join it here
10:18 – 200 people in chat, it’s unchattable. Merging code now, going well so far.
10:37 – Merge was successful, committing, then I’ll try to compile it, then fix any errors. Then hopefully we should be ready.
10:38 – PC is compiling fine – mac is complaining: “ld: library not found for -l-liconv”
11:21 – After much head scratching – I think I have fixed the OSX build. Testing now.
11:41 – SVN version should work properly now
11:52 – Waiting for OSX build to complete
12:09 – .. and I’m done! I’ve done everything I can. It’s in Valve’s hands now. I’ve emailed everyone I know there to tell them there’s an update that needs to go out but I don’t know whether they work on a Saturday. Wish they’d let us push our own updates out! Oh well, fingers crossed that it fixes everything!
Same problem here. HL2 works, but not GMod. WTF Garry.
UPDATE: I tried reinstalling GMod, with no luck. And it's broken. On a Saturday. Merry Christmas.
[QUOTE=MagMonkGod;26776135]Same problem here. HL2 works, but not GMod. WTF Garry[/QUOTE]
Its Valve`s fault not Garry`s.
It was either CS:S or TF2 . either way its a source engine update i bet that broke this.
edit: welp, just read the latest post at the top of the page. I wonder what valve did this time.
[QUOTE=hunterNormandy;26776131]YOU GUYS THERE IS AN SVN VERSION [url]https://facepunch.svn.beanstalkapp.com/gmodgame/trunk/[/url] i managed to get it quickly while on the gmod chat, god that place is scary. the only problem is i dont know where to put the folder.[/QUOTE]
Rename your garrysmod/garrysmod/ folder to like garrysmodold, rename the folder with the SVN in it garrysmod and put where the old one was. Then start Garry's Mod.
