[SOLVED] Gmod is crashing - ToastedBanana - 08-20-2013

Hello! My friend just bought the game and he is trying to join a server and when he is about to join Gmod crashes (but when he joins a sandbox server its fine). Sometimes an error is popping up.

failed to lock vertec buffer in CMeshD8: LockVertexBuffer.nVertexCount=1126, nFirstVertex=0

Unistalling the game and installing it did not work
Deleting the addons folder or the cache folder did not work
I've tried putting -dxlevel 81 in the "set launch options". Did not work
I did a format to the PC and it worked Smile

Thanks everyone who tried to help Smile

Try setting your graphics to the lowest settings possible.

Have you tried to play in Windowed mode? I googled this for you and it turns out that playing in windowed mode is a temporary solution for this problem.

If you want to play in windowed mode, simply add this to your gmod launch options:

Code:
-windowed -noborder

Try re-installing DirectX

RE: Gmod is crashing - Theblackshadowofgod - 08-21-2013

Did you already added all the launch options provided in this thread?

Try adding all the launch options in there (except for -w 1920 -h 1080 because it might be different for you) and try again.
(Meaning you'll have to add these: +r_hunkalloclightmaps 0 -heapsize 3145728 +cl_cmdrate 100 +myinfo_bytes 2000 +cl_updaterate 101 +rate 30000 -dxlevel 80 +mat_antialias 8 +mat_forceaniso 16)
