Stuck on " Requesting [X] Lua files " or " Starting Lua "

[Commie]

Every time I try to join any multiplayer server, I will download the lua files, then it will say " Starting Lua " but never really start. Then when I try to connect again it will say " Requesting [2 or 19] Lua files then get stuck. It seems like my GMOD REFUSES to download specifically 2 or 19 lua files in every server. Some times I might somehow get through without downloading those Lua files but once again, it will get stuck on " Starting Lua "

(Please keep in mind if I attempted to wait for it to load on Starting Lua or Requesting Server files my gmod will just time out while loading and I will be back to server menu. It will never load on Requesting Lua files and will very rarely load on Starting Lua. )

And even if I do manage to connect to the server, I will instantly time out at spawn then lose connection to the server after the timer ends. Example : https://imgur.com/a/pYG5d2e


And also for some reason every time I fail to join the gmod logo in the menu screen disappears shown here : https://imgur.com/qiBT8IL


Here is the whole list of things I have tried
- Verified Game Cache
- Every launch option that people have been saying online, including client ports.
- Reinstall Gmod
- Complete reinstall of gmod (Files left behind also deleted with the actual game itself)
- Factory Reset of GMod
- Every beta version
- Loading into map single player before hand
- Windows Compatibility mode on Windows 7

Here are my main specs
- Windows 10
- Intel Core i7-6700k @ 4.00 GHZ
- Radeon RX 480 Graphics
- 8 GB RAM
- Ethernet

I think I already tried this before, but I will do it again right now and update you to see if it works.

Sorry to say, but it didn't help. I am currently stuck on " Requesting 2 Lua files from the server "

Got it, I went ahead and joining discord gmod server where they help people with problems, I tried pretty much everything with them till they gave up. They said it is most likely a game issue with the latest update and can not be fixed, though that isn't gonna stop me from trying.

also posted on the forums you told me about.

Yeah I figured out by myself a VPN connection will fix the problem, then I posted it in the forum. Hoping the bug will get fixed though because its really insignificant.
