After the update with Gmod this morning/early evening, i cannot open the game. It wasnt a huge update, just one of those updates that takes a few seconds then randomly says "Garrys Mod Has Finished Downloading", although you were just playing it.

I heard some people talking in the RP server earlier bout not being able to reopen the game or something due to an HL2 update, but i didnt hear the whole conversation, nor did i know the details or level of how relevant it was.

Anyways, it saying "Loading" in the Steam pop up window, then opens. It stays on the ingame window loading screen for about 5 seconds, then automatically minimizes-freezing and becomes "Not Responding". I then have to manually close the game.

I tried several times, restarted my computer, redownloaded Gmod, and looked online for answers, as well as their website and info page for Steam. Nothing.

Please help me solve this problem or let me know details or anything if you have it. Thanks!

Another engine update broke gmod? *KEEP DISCUSSION IN THIS THREAD* (http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1117242-Another-engine-update-broke-gmod-*KEEP-DISCUSSION-IN-THIS-THREAD*?p=31751323#post31751323)

It happens to everyone, not just you. Valve likes to fuck things up, garry's mod is fine the way it is why they TOUCHY. Also it's a engine update, so it might happen to more games now.

Yeah i just read it on the forums: Garry's Mod won't start? - Page 2 - Steam Users' Forums (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2059733&page=2)

Atleast it isnt just me, although id really like to get back to Gmod soon. Garry keeps getting left such a burden.

And this is why the guys over at my clan Team Renegade call Valve the "Reoccurring Nightmare", due to its fetish of breaking CS:S. haha

Thanks for the info though, guys!
