if you are just starting this game, you can try to delete the whole gmod folder and then verify the game files. this will delete everything you have ever done in gmod if you have done anything, but it should be fine if you haven't done anything.

but this also seems like a bigger issue. since the source engine is used for multiple valve games, it could mean that all valve games you have could have the same issue, which could be unresolvable.

or it could mean your PC is too underpowered, List your PC specs.

Although, a 115 gb Acer laptop might be different than most gaming computers

your specs seem ok, it could be conflicting addons or just a problem with the custom map in general.

watermelon turtle all computers pc or laptop have ram.

I'm not a pc geek! All I know is that my laptop sucks, and I don't even have the storage to run TF2. :)

it might be a map problem
cause other maps work
JAJOITUS Jul 19, 2023 @ 10:31am 
or maybe i had some addon in the save i was trying to load
JAJOITUS Jul 19, 2023 @ 10:50am 
I think its just the save is broken cause other saves aon that map work
