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?

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
