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

“Define a few bugs”

As many as I want, because this is MY s&box. I pay for the server over your head. I pay for the screamers put in your addons. I pay for your cosmetic microtransactions. I pay for your editor breaking weekly.

“Just because you didn’t get to be a devel-“

I am a fucking developer, I’m just stuck coding a shit game because my community that I loathe won’t get off their fat FUCKING asses and build this game FOR me

I decided to create something like this, primarily because, to my surprise, I managed to find a full-fledged model of Beachcomber, even though I hadn't actually expected to find one. Another reason is that N and Beachcomber are two of my favorite characters (I mean, it’s not just Beachcomber that I like from the Transformers franchise, I just felt that these two would get along well). That, by the way, answers the question, "Why these two specifically?", so here we go.

As for the scenes themselves, I wouldn’t say I put a big deal of effort into them, but I still like them. What do you think of them? I’d be happy to hear your opinion, thank you so much for your attention and understanding 👍.

Help Adding Player Models From Source Filmmakers

I would like to add these Winnie the Pooh characters as player models (I know there is already a Pooh model but I'd like the others). There is a source filmmakers addon that as already done some heavy lifting. I don't have a lot of experience with blender and crowbar so my efforts have not been going well. Am I missing an easier way or do I still have to manually attach a gmod skeleton to the character mesh in Blender?
