Part 1: How To Play GMOD
Ok First find garrys mod into the your library list



Then, Click To Green Button. İts Something Like this




Congratulations!! you have successfully completed the first part. Now let's move on to part 2!!



Part 2: Getting to know About Garry's Mod's Interface
ok You re Successfully complete first part. now we are learn how to play garrys mod.

İf you Clicked the Green Button the after a few seconds or your pc is slow its after a few mins games interface is coming into your screen.

Now let me give you a little information:

into the game just choose which side you will play on. If you can play on other people's servers alone, you can set up your own server if you want. But remember that in Garry's Mod, the servers work 2-sided. As client and server side. In other words, while the server transmits the behavior and movements of the players between the players, your computer, the client, bears the burden of the game. If your PC is bad, I do not recommend setting up a server or installing too many addons. otherwise, you may experience problems such as crashing and freezing in the game. I will explain the optimization process in the following parts, now let me briefly explain the interface with 1-2 pictures.




As you can see, you have 2 choices here. for now im going with singleplayer just click to what do you see into the picture in-game. and after than;





select gm_flatgrass And click To Start Game Button. Thats All Folks.
Part 3: More Optimized Garry's Mod For Low-End Gamers
Okay, I guess that's enough jokes. This part will contain fewer visuals compared to the previous ones. Now I tell some serious things. If Low-End player, like me, if are reading this guide, I will tell you some tactics that will double your fps.

First and important Thing is: Be Careful to selecting your Workshop Subscriptions. So İf you Asking Why This is İmportant?

There are a lot of things you need to be careful about when downloading plugins from the workshop. For example, choosing the right Addon.
When downloading an Addon from the workshop, since most people subscribe to many addons at the same time while downloading that Addon, the addons are usually downloaded incompletely and lost textures and codes can cause you getting a some problems in the game. If you are downloading your addons one by one, be sure to download every 4-5 addons from the workshop and check if there is a problem by entering the game. so you get rid of Lua Errors. If you are experiencing such problems when you say subscribe to all from a collection that allows bulk subscription, identify and remove the addons that you get a lua error. and then you can eliminate this problem by subscribing again. If you follow the steps I mentioned and you still get errors from the same addon or addons, the addon is probably corrupt or the person who uploaded this addon to the workshop wrote the code incompletely.

Secondly, important codes.
If you are lazy to write code like me, you have 2 options. The first is to prepare a config file.

First of all, the codes you will enter in the startup options:

-dxlevel 81 -full -w WIDTH -h HEIGHT -console -novid -useforcedmparms -noforcemaccel -noforcemspd



as you can see this codes going there.

The second option is the fps boosters and some addons in the workshop. I personally use the second option and there is a noticeable increase in my performance. The link of the addons I use is as follows:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1620875048

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1225543129

thats all for this part. thanks for the read.
Part 4: Some Tips
Even if you download more than one addon from the workshop and your PC's performance is much lower than before the addons, it would be beneficial to try this as well.

map selection:
You have to be careful when choosing a map. Because new and large maps can really tire your PC and cause problems such as lag and freezing if the parts inside your PC are old. So you'd better use maps that are as old as your PC. Here is the maps that I use myself problems:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3007614642

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=105985987

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2796973335

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2508187204

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=683685424

thats all i think.

ok now the last part:
Disable unnecessary addons you don't use in-game
and thats is doing in here:






and thats all.

In short, if you only activate the modes you will play, you will be comfortable while in the game and your game will lag less than the mode you downloaded.

btw The larger the addons you download, the more active the total of them exceeds your RAM power (that is, if your RAM is 2048 MB, which means 2GB RAM, if the mods you download exceed the size of your RAM, your game will lag. Of course, this is valid for weak systems.) It is possible that there will be crashes and fps drops in the game. So when installing the game, ask a friend with higher ram than you to open the server.


if you readed all thanks. and low-end players



Thank you for reading to the end. Low-end players are done here, now it's time to last Part, remastering Garry's Mod, with Addons. From here on, it concerns medium and high players.

was expecting this to be another copypasta but this was actually funny and really helpful

Another good tip would be to customize your launch options like giving the game dedicated ram and thread count.
