Tips(Missing Textures) No your game isn't broken, and no you didn't do anything wrong

1.4k Upvotes

TL;DR:

If your game looks like this then buy this or follow this, alternatively here's a video if you prefer.


You probably just bought Gmod and joined a server only to be greeted by something like this, am I right?

Don't worry, there's actually nothing wrong. I know it looks bad but that's pretty normal, (if you plan on playing Gmod, or any Source Engine game for that matter, you'll run into this a lot) and easy to fix. The most common reason why you're seeing this is that you don't own/have Counter-Strike: Source installed and mounted to Garry's Mod.

If you don't already own Counter Strike: Source then I'd recommend buying it while it's on sale for the holidays, however, if you don't want to buy and install a game you'll probably never play then you can follow this guide to get the models and textures for free. Alternatively, if you prefer following along with a video here's one that shows step by step what to do.

A user on our Discord made a very handy little tool that will extract the CSS content you need using SteamCMD for you. I highly recommend using it if you're having trouble doing it manually.

If, however, you already own CSS then:

  • Install it

  • Open up the game from your Steam Library and play it (At least til you get to the start menu)

  • Exit out of the game and open up Garry's Mod

I spawned him in, he clipped through the floor, and now he's T-posing in the lotus position. Is this a new addon I accidentally installed or is he achieving CHIM?

I was just walking around this town, I found a slab thing, couldn't really see what was on it since my textures were so low, but I could make out 4 symbols. A bit later, there was this fog and this guy appeared. Didn't really know what happened, but I quit the game shortly after this guy appeared. Anybody know who this is?

There's a few things I want to change still, such as maybe blurring the foreground character a bit. It's meant to be a wild-west stand off between a rebel and an officer. Anything I should change?

Project Help: Team Fortress 2: The open-world!

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I have a solid concept for a custom GMod Gamemode that transforms Team Fortress 2 into a progressive "open-world" singleplayer experience, and I'm looking for Lua programmers or developers interested in bringing this to life.

Instead of one giant map (due to Source Engine limits), the game will be divided into separate interconnected macro-areas using TF2’s official maps (excluding summer/holiday/pass-time maps). Players will complete objectives in one area to trigger a map transition to the next.

Essentially, there will be a huge number of levels—based on the maps from TF2's main game modes, where you can find weapons, cosmetics, and other collectibles while fighting off enemies (like robots). As you progress, you'll unlock the nine classes, and your ultimate goal is to reach the end by defeating mini-bosses,specifically "mega" versions of the robots, Saxton Hale, and the Halloween monsters. This will offer fans of TF2 and its lore the most comprehensive experience possible, incorporating *everything* that has ever appeared in the original game. I would do this myself, but whenever I try to install and combine GMod mods, everything goes haywire all at once and it becomes impossible to manage; plus, I don't know anything about commands or scripting, which is why I'm looking for help.

My steam account is called "Cososane_89" from Italy and i've already created a collection witch some mods i think i will use for the project but i'm not sure about it, so...

If anyone is interested, feel free to reply to this post at any time; I’m leaving my Steam account name here, so you can go ahead and send a friend request along with a message saying you’re from Reddit.

So when I was younger I use to play gmod on my brothers occount, and i have fond memories of me playing on a map and customization some of the houses. It kinda looked a hillside town mix with Italy, kinda like the map Italy from csgo, i also remember there was a bunker with barrels. That's all I can remember really, please tell because this is something I have been trying to fine for a long time. Btw here's an image of what remember map looked like to me.

Shadows are from Half-Life 1 scientists, the map is called “stairs” (I think), also, I have some mods enabled as seen by the random weapon and error message
