"Starting LUA" causing crashing
#1
yo,

trying to join server after reinstalling gmod for first time in ages, getting Starting LUA message which just freezes game and eventually crashes it, sometimes with the LUA panic error sometimes without.

i've reinstalled game like 4 times, deleted all addons and let the server install files to see if that fixed but nada

pls help

Quick google yields this possible solution
  1. Open up properties of Garrys Mod
  2. Go to Betas
  3. Select x86-64 branch
  4. Relaunch game, and join server

If this hasn't/doesn't work, could you please upload your crash log?
You can find this in your Steam/SteamApps/Commons/Garrysmod/ folder. The extension should be .mdmp, with the name including the relevant date of the crash. Will look like this, for reference:

Have you tried installing the content manually for fl. also try loading a map single player and see if that works so we can workout what the cause is

Okay, this fix might seem weird but try first migrating your garry's mod with all the files of FL etc. included to a memory stick. Then, run Garry's Mod as administrator and make sure not to download custom files. If this works, you can turn on download custom files if you have errors next time you play.

Don't actually own a memory stick.. will try moving to external hard drive I have and will see if works.
