I'm so scared of playing GMod, that I can't even think to play it, the moment I wanna play it, I think about this problem, and get scared of it instantly

If you are thinking about all of the goatse virus things, you should be fine.

devout jacinth
#

No worries bro, just check if there’s anything about any addon you have installed

hexed musk
#

Mhm

#

Is MW SWEPS safe?

#

ArcCW?

#

that one chemical warfare mod, i think its gcehm

#

*gchem

#

And how do I check?

hexed musk
#

I'm kinda worried about addons now

#

And I wanna make sure these addons are safe:

#

a rocket mod, idk how its calleds

#

H0L-d4

#

MW SWEPS

#

GChem (i think)

#

ArcCW

#

Seat Weaponiser, i think

#

and an extra combine mod

devout jacinth
# hexed musk And how do I check?

Just check the comment sections on the addons or search for a guide named something like “virus addon list” or something like that

exotic otter
#

the small obscure mods are more likely to get you

hexed musk
#

mmm ok

#

i heard dynamic weapon reverb is infected

#

with that screamer mod

#

and are those viruses, like, dangerous to your pc, or for the game?

#

are they easy to delete?

#

and is the life mod safe?

#

i have a lot of questions

devout jacinth
#

And also there’s a very bad image thing

#

I think it’s gone tho

gray marten
#

also if you’re talking about the goatse june 3rd incident i got effected by it, it was just a small thing but that’s gone now

compact meadow
#

iirc isnt there a list of infected addons?

exotic otter
#

a list wont do much if a new addon gets infected

#

which is the main threat

compact meadow
#

I mean yeah but i mean for checking for mods that you have that might be infected

hexed musk
gray marten
hexed musk
#

so i can play gmod safely?

hexed musk
#

another question

#

why does gmod kinda gets stuck and gets back to normal?

#

like is it loading smth, idk

#

or is it unstable, i dont know anything about this

indigo zodiac
#

wdym

hexed musk
#

like stuttering

#

@here any fix on suttering more than restarting pc?

#

especially in 0:27

#

ok wrong video but still catches the problem

#

it gives horrible stutters that more than one of them made me crash

gray marten
#

i think that’s lag

hexed musk
#

why??

#

i have a 1050 ti and i7

#

kinda strange

novel raft
#

Yes? Its always been.

hexed musk
#

tu mama

#

but i need help on that lag

#

its annoying especially on creating fights

#

once i did a fight with 3 civilians and 2 combines, and it lagged a LOT

#

i shot a rocket and then it crashed

#

it was like PO-PO-PO-PO-PO-PO-

#

and crashed

hexed musk
#

but 1000x worse

#

like in the moment it lags it gets to the point that it gets stuck there and closes

devout jacinth
#

It’s not lag

#

Lag is about internet connection to a server

#

It’s something with gmod

#

It always does that when you insert a model for the first time when you open the game cause it’s loading the model

#

Kinda like how when you search up models in the search bar it loads them

#

Other than that no

hexed musk
#

ok so it isnt a bad thing?

#

cuz the specs are decent for a gmod game to run decently

#

cuz a single fight lags the whole game

indigo zodiac
#

no matter how good your computer is gmod will still have fps drops

devout jacinth
#

Yeah

hexed musk
#

for the source engine?

#

cuz i saw someone with a BEAUTIFUL GMOD RESHADE AND EVERYTHING, and he did say that ihs gmod lags a lot while recording, even though his videos were smooth as butter

#

or the brain of those yt shorts that scam kids

frigid thunder
#

The beginning of this post now got me worried I didn’t know about these viruses and images such before, what are they exactly? Edit; I researched all the malicious addons and what they did now I’m anxious to launch the game ever again… yaaaay …. thaaaanks my brain… fuck

exotic otter
#

they cant do much

#

its not like its a computer virus lmao

gray marten
#

goatse everywhere

hexed musk
#

you can play now 😄

#

but beware of some addons that are kinda malicious

#

or search it on yt if they are malicious or not

hexed musk
frigid thunder
hexed musk
#

yeah and be careful

#

just do gmod breaks and youll be juuust fine

hexed musk
#

but yeah

#

soooo... the stutter that i just sent some days ago is just lag?

exotic otter
#

ye

exotic otter
#

or play on servers that actually scan addons before adding junk

hexed musk
#

yeaaaah...

#

since that ive been checking EVERY DESC OF ANY ADDON THAT I HAD TO FIND A THING

#

any addon that i find i search ti on YT, or the desc

#

a question tho

#

DO YOU YIEL-

#

yeah, but going to the point, gmod is now running a LOT better with chromium, little to no crashes, everything fine

#

but for some fights, it lags kind of a lot, just some lag that for me, its uncomfortable to play

#

like ti drops down to 20 fps

#

any cause?

#

may be addons, or smth else

hexed musk
#

and its going like a LOT better

#

i heard of some commands that can boost fps, what are those?

gray marten
#

but i tried one once

#

and it make my game look like crap

#

so

#

try it if u want

exotic otter
hexed musk
#

i just saw that can be buggy

#

well

#

ill try ti if it doesnt work ill leave it like that

#

cuz i have a blood mod that when i enable multicore rendering it has animated wounds

#

so maybe is it enabled like that?

#

all safe

indigo zodiac
#

not all mods with high ratings must be safe

#

it's better to look at how many people downloaded the addon

hexed musk
#

thanks

#

but i already feel safe now 😄

#

but @indigo zodiac is kinda true

#

cuz some popular addons have been infected

delicate radish
#

Dawg that’s been gone for atleast 6 months now

devout jacinth

indigo zodiac

#

what i was trying to say was that some good addons have very shitty ratings because of bots

You should just stay away from the 'most recent' section of the workshop, and you'll be fine

spring osprey
#

yes it's safe to play gmod, but you have to be careful in installing mods

hexed musk

SQUID GAMES ‼️

celest igloo
hexed musk

hexed musk
#
