ERROR and Untextured Things

[Luffy]

How do I fix this please help.

You need to have the games mounted that the map is trying to take the textures from. Or the content packs or other addons that the map or saves need. Whatever map you are trying to play on, look at its workshop page and see if the description tells you what games or required items you need.

If you can't get the stuff that is needed, this addon can hide the errors:

But if you can't get the needed contents, the missing textures are harder to fix but sometimes typing mat_specular 0 into console will remove some of them. That will also remove shininess on objects, though.

How do I install the required items for the map is they dont list anything specific?

Show me the workshop page of the map you want to play on that has the errors.

If they don't tell you then ehhhh well, it might be something commonly known you need for a lot of gmod maps: like HL2, Episodes 1 and 2, Counter Strike Source, and Team Fortress 2. But show me the map and maybe I can tell. (You would need to have those games installed, and mounted in gmod, for their content to work in gmod. You can check if they are mounted in the bottom right corner of Gmod on the start screen.)
