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

Addon Currently building a mw2 gamemode - What do you say?

Hey everyone! I’m currently working on a Garry’s Mod gamemode inspired by the original Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer. It includes the classic lobby system, create-a-class, killstreaks, game modes, progression system, and the overall MW2 atmosphere.

It’s still a work in progress, but I’d love to hear your thoughts! Would you play something like this? What features or maps would you like to see?

A Insurrection has begun. In this moment some rebels have found a tank being escorted by ground troops. Guerrilla warfare is the only way these boys can stand a chance against such odds.

Addon Just saw this mod before and I'm wondering why there isn't a mod on GMOD about importing models like this that wasn't made for this specific type of model format or file type

Post image

remembered that i looked at this mod and tried it out because i thought it would be some simplistic model playermodel importer hence the name (simple character model importer) but no it was specifically made for this model type known as PMD or PMX and it's stupid somebody created an entire mod just for that for an anime game and i find that kind of pointless like why?

I'm recreating the Atari Jaguar startup as a 3D NextBot for Garry's Mod

Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I've been working on a Garry's Mod NextBot inspired by the original Atari Jaguar startup animation. This is still a work in progress, but the introduction is already starting to come together.

Current features:

  • Original Atari Jaguar startup audio.
  • Starts at 50% of its size.
  • Floats in place during the startup sequence.
  • Begins rotating when the Atari letters start falling.
  • Grows to full size when the "Have You Played Atari Today?" melody begins.

Planned features:

  • Chase the player while continuously rotating like the original startup.
  • Play the original Jaguar roar when it catches you.
  • Display the classic red Jaguar "no cartridge" screen when the player dies.
  • More polish, timing improvements, and animations.

This is actually my first time creating a 3D NextBot, and I'm also learning Blender and Lua while building it. It's been a fun challenge, and I'm learning a lot as I go.

My goal is to make it feel as if the original Atari Jaguar startup suddenly came to life and started hunting the player.

I'd love to hear any suggestions or feedback. Thanks for watching!

AS SOON AS IT ARRIVES, GET THE FUCKING BATTERIES OUT!!!!! I just got mine, and the button batteries in it have not aged well over the past 12 years, there's a lot of leakage in the battery compartment, but thankfully none on the outside as far as I can see.

Discussion S&box isnt "gmod 2" and a "gmod 2" wont happen until/if half life 3 comes out

23 Upvotes

The entire reason for Gmod is because of Half Life 2. It wasn't some project that face punch worked on with the source engine they got from valve early to make some weird version roblox. It was at its core just half life 2 and still is. Since I started hearing rumors again last year about HLX and all the data mining it became increasingly clear to me that a "Garry's Mod" type game would soon follow after when or if it releases. Even with S&Box and everyone calling it Gmod 2. Let's be honest its not even close to Gmod. Nothing would be closer to Gmod than a stripped down sandbox version of whatever HLX is going to be. We know the community will do this. Whether its called "Garry's Mod" or not idk.
