Read it and answer it (here or on the site) if you could.
If the link screws, here is what my problem is-
Gmod crashing! (gmod failed to lock index buffer) Please help!
I had no problems until today. I recently installed a npc pack (problem?) to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\username\garrysmod \garrysmod. I only installed the files and not the folder (say the folders lua and models are in folder 2, i just extracted the files and not folder 2). So now i load up, get a black background, it starts to load a map, then crashes with an error. "failed to lock index buffer in CMesh DX8::LockIndexBuffer"
I looked up some stuff on google but nothing is helping. I reinstalled it, restarted steam, restarted my computer, and a bunch of things. When i went to manually remove the npc pack i couldn't find the files (cause i extracted them -.-) and i also noticed that all of my addons and files were still there...
Can anyone help me? (i did reinstall it, hoping to loose any addons or customized data, but no...)
