Crash when joining the server

[Zombiedance]

Every time i join the server i always end up crashing from client.dll i believe it has something to do with the cache folder but im not so sure what. Anyone else getting this? Also it happens even with a clean gmod with only srp content.  :-\

[mikeywrenn]

My suggestion:

Delete "steam/steamapps/(name)/garrysmod/"
Re-install garrysmod, then join with ONLY the things required for the map (srp_occult_v1)

It's a bit heavy-handed and may take a while, but it's what I'd do.

(You may want to wait for a better answer first.)

Same thing happened for me. Frustrated me. All I did was clean out my cache folder, and lower my graphics a bit, and also got rid of a few addons, and I got in.

I can usually get in, but when I do it crashes every 20 minutes.  It's just a buggy map.

I had the same problem and I just deleted my entire cache folder and then joined. After that everything was fine.

[Zombiedance]

I've reinstalled garrysmod 4 times trying different things to get in and so far nothing has worked. Ive wiped my cache and lua_temp folder so many times and nothing. I just cant seem to get in windows event viewer gives this. The only thing with that is its a very vague error.

It's at the point I can't get in anymore.  I've re-installed the game along with all the files, deleted my cache folder, everything.

[HitMan5523]

Yea it's happening to me too. It doesn't happen with any other servers I'm on so I'm thinking that it's the server. Don't hate on me it's just what I think.

Same just happened to me....
I think its because of map

[Otto]

I've tried it on two different computers now, applied all content packs and possible fixes and it still doesn't work.

tdlr; map is shit

If you can't get something working, it doesn't mean that it's shit.
Also, Too Didn't Long Read?
What.

[HitMan5523]

Jake, not to be that guy, but if he can't get on with two different computers then something has to be wrong.

[Frankjames]

i used to crash all the time as well, but i took out the so called hunk overflow fix out and i don't crash anymore.

[HitMan5523]

 This is what it says when it says HL2.exe has stopped working on the screen "couldn't include file 'sh_auto.lua'(file not found)(@worldscript/gamemode/core/sh_core.lua(line 2437)

[Immortal One]

It lags only when theres up to 6 people on server, if less i join normaly

They enabled that by default awhile back.

[Immortal One]

Lets try it then.....

[Zombiedance]

I've gone through 4 re-installs of garrysmod, various fixes, and i still ctd with no error besides the normal gmod is unresponsive thing. Anyone have any luck at all?

Try loading a map in SP, like construct, disconnect, then join the server.

That got me to "Please wait while source creates your player files"(or something along that line) then it crashed.

EDIT: I finally got an error it says "engine error - steam dll isn't worthy of our trust on line 765611979579584

[Immortal One]

Now works for me! ^^

[Zombiedance]

D: Lucky I've tried everything under the sun.

EDIT: Then I read your edit
