hide "Something is creating script errors" popup?
Hi, I recently installed a small little NPC pack from the workshop and I have been having no visible problems with it.

I can't simply fix the problem, I'm no coder, just your regular everyday user.

Anyone know how to remove it?

This is somewhat easy, however if you mess up you might need a reinstallation.
Goto your Garry's Mod installation folder (normally Program Files (x86)/Steam/SteamApps/common/garrysmod/garrysmod/), and go into the lua folder, then go into the menu folder. There will be a errors.lua file, open it using wordpad. Look for the following value:
local EndTime = SysTime() - 10
Change that 10 to 0 to completely disable it, or 1 to at least know when there's an error. Then save it, after backing up the file. See, if there's a lua error in one of the menu lua files, the game won't launch. If it breaks and you can't seem to fix it, validate cache.

IF you really want to totally hide them you must set to 0 this string too:
local
Recent = SysTime() - 0

this seems to hide the message of the errors, but the errors themselves still show up in the console, i need a way to remove them from the console entirely
