Explosion effect problem
There seems to be a problem with the explosion effect from RPG's and grenades on Garry's mod. The effect looks like blocks, but when I tried it on Half Life 2, the effect looks much better and realistic. I noticed this problem shortly after I installed the dismemberment mod, but I'm not sure if said mod is the cause of this problem as I still had this problem after I uninstalled it. I've tried...

-Reinstalling Garry's Mod
-Reinstalling addons
-Validating Game Cache
-Defragmenting
-Session with all addons disabled

Here's two pictures so you can see what I'm talking about...

Any suggestions?

So I'm not the only one experiencing the problem, then? Oh good. That's another thing I can add to a growing list I have of "Noticable bugs in Gmod that have yet to be fixed". Don't get me started on the horrendously low crouch speed that took _ages_ to somehow fix after version 13's release.

You know, funny thing is, you know how you can't freeze cars anymore? Yeah, I think you get the point.

Either A, get a better graphics card that can handle the 2k-4k resolution texture mods that some of you may have without knowing

or B, remove any conflicting texture mods by unsubing from them in the workshop then navagating towards you garrysmod folder and remove all traces of the modded textures. To many texture replacers can and well try to override each other and cause the game to crash,freeze or in everyones case blocky effects
