gMod broken ? - Rahiro - 09-25-2013
Aloha Ladies and Gentlemen
as some of you maybe noticed I havent been as active on the servers as I used to be - sure school started but I really wanted to play but some problems occured I cant get fixed right now:
1. gMod laggs as hell for the last 3 weeks - could the amount of add-ons and changes I did to the addons possibly cause these laggs?
2. Whenever I am on the server my computer loses the internet connection, if I am lucky I can stay online for 30 minutes - any ideas ?
It is very uncommon for games to spaz out as other games for example Star Wars The Old Republic or League of Legends run very smooth and at a high frame rate.
I know I did not add quiet a lot of information as I am not sure what information you guys and girls might need in order to help me
Please help me satisfying my FL addiction
Thank you, I will appreciate every help and I'll probably owe you something

Try reinstalling garry's mod. Remove some unneeded addons. Eventually reinstall windows

A few things I changed when I had similar issues.
:Make sure everything is in the right folder, if it isn't delete/move as necessary.
:delete addons you don't use/aren't working.
:disable all addons before going on server. (important if you like building and using the search menu for props, or it'll take a week to load)
:make sure all the drivers for video cards etc are up to date.
:monitor your processes, gmod crashes for me when cpu load gets too high, so don't use skype or browsers whilst in game.
:use razor gamebooster, it's a nifty way to enhance game performance, I can play swtor on a 1.3ghz laptop at max graphics with gamebooster.
:options for gmod, change graphics and disable things like shadows, shadows and certain effects can cause lag you're end.
At the end of the day if it's lagging for you, and you only, then it's a hardware/cpu issue, (imo) and what I've listed above should help.

The solution that probably work: Delete every addon, then try to join and see if it changed.

If you delete them though make sure you disable them as it normally just re-downloads them through the workshop.

Firstly, if you haven't already, DO NOT REINSTALL WINDOWS. That's like burning down your house to kill ants, it's, if anything, the LAST thing you do.
Do what the others say. (Uninstalling addons, reinstalling GMod ect.)
Good luck.
