G-Mod crashing on startup without an error report.

[QUOTE=Altair24;37474863]Just delete EVERYTHING from the garrysmod folder inside garrysmod (Credit to Mycatateyourcookie for telling me)[/QUOTE]

You sure? I'll do that soon enough. Thanks.

One question though, delete everything from the garry's mod's BETA'S folder or delete everything from the old garrysmod folder?

Delete what one your using, (etc if it beta then delete beta. If it retail game then delete garrysmod folder then)

[Erogoan]

Doesn't work for me. :<

And yes, I make sure there is nothing left in my Steamapps that in any way resembles Gmod.

[del]I have[/del] actually found a fix that doesn't require deletion of anything.

If you are opted in Steam Beta, opt out. I managed to play Garry's Mod 13 Beta (and any other steam game, without Steam crashing) after doing so.

Gah, my bad, I'm not the one who found it, it was Heio.

I tried opting out, didn't seem to work.

What. Sorry about that, FP was acting weird. :v:

Didn't work for me, sadly.

[Sean420]

Still no response from Garry. None of the "fixes" worked for this problem (Possibly fixed another for one person though).
GMod 13 beta works. I just sent another email to Garry once again linking our posts, hopefully this is fixed soon. One day....we may play GMod again, just maybe....one day.

Garry is gone for 2 weeks. Its best to just play something else to pass the time

Yeah, because we haven't been doing that for over a month or anything, lol.

[ficolas]

I wanna play :'(

[ficolas]

:0 I was able to play 5 minutes, no Idea how.

[ToraxOutlaw]

Are there any other solutions to try?

[Erogoan]

You didn't care to read the thread, did you?

We can't even get to the main menu, it's got nothing to do with us not being able to join a specific server.

Thanks for trying to give us an option, though.

[Futashy]

Hey. So it seems that my "IObit Malware Fighter" was causing my crashing. Hope this helps out!

[Erogoan]

Oh wow, amazing find, Ryukrawr. That's what was causing my crashing as well.

[ShaunOfTheLive]

umm guys, I don't have IObit, and I'm still crashing... What do

[anderssb]

It worked :D
Thx Ryukrawr? nice found

[Themodtester]

Gah, even that does not work, bloody hell.

[MonkeysLP]

Type "vgui_allowhtml 0" in console without the quotation marks before joining a server.

He said he can't even get the game to start, unless I read that wrong.
This was my first idea but then I thought I'd wait....

[Futashy]

[QUOTE=MonkeysLP;37608360]Type "vgui_allowhtml 0" in console without the quotation marks before joining a server.[/QUOTE]

the topic is "G-Mod crashing on startup without an error report." He's not even loading in, try removing your anti virus program or disabling it

[ToraxOutlaw]

Uninstalling my Iobit Malware Fighter to try that theory and reinstalling both garry's mods. Will post my findings after.

[editline]11th September 2012[/editline]

Uninstalling Iobit Malware worked and now I have a different problem Toybox keeps crashing Garry's Mod without an error report.

[editline]11th September 2012[/editline]

I also can't join any servers as when it starts downloading it crashes also.

Type vgui_allowhtml 0 into the console before you join any games, it's a temp fix untill Garry fixes it

Timestamp~ Need help figuring out the cause it crashes 5 seconds after startup on garrys mod 13, none of these fixes fix the problem :L. Help please!

[TangoD0wn]

I sent my dump files... I can also tell you that. I had a look in IRC some one said

[quote]
<JohnMichaelFFS> i found a workaround for the crash in the latest update
<JohnMichaelFFS> open gmod via steam and let it crash/freeze, but do not close anything
<JohnMichaelFFS> open steam through steam AGAIN, and wait for it to launch to the main menu
<JohnMichaelFFS> itll work as expected
<JohnMichaelFFS> then you can close the nonresponsive instance of steam
[/quote]

This did not work by it self. I did how ever get the game to run by doing the above after seting -dxlevel 9

Edit: I noticed around Fri or Sat my game would load and return to desktop but not crash I could tab back into the game. and then last night when I did a update because the server said it was using a new version it completely crashed

I aslo verifyed all my files removed any subscribed items from the work shop and del my gmod folder and reinstalled.

[Alan Craft]

Oh okay, so I'm not the only one this is happening to.
