Gmod needs CS:S?
 

Hello, i just downloaded Garry's mod 9, and it wont work.
I get an error:

Engine Error:

MountFilesystems( 241 ) failed: SteamMountFilesystem (bunch of numbers) Failed with error 5: No Steam Content Servers are available.

I'm pretty sure that this is because I don't have CS S (Counter-strike Source)
and I don't plan on buying it, since it isn't in any stores.

I am wondering if there are any other versions of gmod that don't require CS:S and only HL2, and HL2:DM. Any help would be appreciated. :)

Re: Gmod needs CS:S?
 

I don't know a whole lot about that, but I'm pretty sure that CS:S isn't required to play Gmod10, if you are willing to buy it.

Re: Gmod needs CS:S?
 

Just buy Gmod 10, it just requires one source game. :half life 2, half life 2 ep. 1, CS:S, DoD ect.:

Re: Gmod needs CS:S?
 

I was just in the states few weeks ago (I was in a Target store) and I saw CSS on the shelf.
It is in stores.

Re: Gmod needs CS:S?
 

Buy on Steam, Find stores who has stock of it.
or Launch by manual, Create a shortcut with target
<"(HD):\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\(username)\half-life 2\hl2.exe" -steam -game "(HD):\program files\steam\SteamApps\(username)\gmod9"> remove < and >

If you installed like this (HD):\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps
Then add Valve.

If that doesn't work, buy CS: S,
I can run gmod 9 without cs:s, that is what i do(Launch manual) Whenever i run gmod 9 bec i don't have CS:S
But now i have CS: S(I Bought it!)

Also johnny_thunder, i remember that happened in Nightime in my place, then when i launched it in the morning it worked.

Re: Gmod needs CS:S?
 

Ive done what you said lyndonrebutoc but i cant get it to work, are you possotive that what you put was correct? im havign the exact same problem as Johnny_thunder :(
after doing what you said i now get a "Extra App ID set to 320, but no SteamAppId." error

What should i do?

Hi,

I'm new here and I recently got HL2 with HL2:DM as a gift from my friends. Currently im trying to run Gmod 9 without CS:S. I've done what lyndonrebutoc has said about creating the manual launch shortcut, but I am receiving the same error joeyman_06 is:

"Extra App ID set to 320, but no SteamAppId"

Does anyone know how to fix this error? I'm not to keen on spending money on CS:S or Gmod 10. Maybe lyndonrebutoc can enlighten us on this issue?

And sorry for reviving a 2 week old topic. It seemed better than creating a new one

im still hangin on for a reply too Vyper. lol.
im sure we will get one sooner or l8r :)

Joey

I read that If you have gmod 9 not 9.something. You must delete the cs folder in the gmod9/mods folder and the -modcache And it will work but i don't think it will work in gmod 9.something and if u want you can try gmod 7 in u want but it lacks the features of gmod 9 gmod 7 only needs HL2

THANKS MAN!!!! thats gr8 :)
all i did was delete the CS folder from the gmod9/mods folder adn it works :)

Garrys mod9.0 :)

thank you so much lyndo :)

Joey

Dude, you're a genius

Hey does anybody know a simple link to get just 9.0??? All the links I tried just got me to 9.0.4:rolleyes:

Hmmm...do these look right?

Half-Life 2 Garry's Mod, Half-Life 2 Downloads, Half-Life 2 Clients

or

Filecloud - Garry's Mod v9.0

The Bottom one is the best one i think :)
its gt the same file name as the one i downloaded gmod_9_0.exe


Joey

Thanks, I found one that works that was 9.0B, that worked so its probably ok

What is the diff of gmod 9 to 9.0.4?

CS:S is available in stores. I don't know if it is available by itself, because I bought it with HL2/HL2EP1/HL1/HL2DM/HLDM during that holiday package deal thingy...

CS:S is available by itself...well, as close to "by itself" you can get. I got it on CD-ROM and it also comes with HL2 Deathmatch and DOD:S.

Yes, There is a CS:S by itself, The one i bought is CS:S only, no other games included(CD-rom not steam).

where is the gmod9/mods folder? I cant find it:(

(Hard disk):\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\gmod9
or (Hard disk):\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\gmod9

Hey Everyone, I just got Garry's Mod 10, and I already have HL2...
However, It won't let me spawn CS:S items or models!

Do I need to buy CS:S???

Yes

i deleted the CS folder in gmod 9 and its load up the level and all but it shows nothing but darkness that i cant see nothin, i can summon up the menu and walk around, but i can only hear my footsteps and cant see a thing.

U gotta have HL2 ( NOT CRACKED! ) CS:S ( NOT CRACKED! ) HL2 : DM ( NOT CRACKED! )! That's all u need! I WILL BUY IT FOR 25€! MUHUHU

have fun with.

Re: Gmod needs CS:S?
 

THANK YOU LYNDON i registered to filefront just so i can thank you, THANK YOU

Re: Gmod needs CS:S?
 

Im downloading gmod 9.0 now, hope this works :p

Re: Gmod needs CS:S?
 

Woot It Worked :d

Re: Gmod needs CS:S?
 

Okay,

So I followed Lyndonrebutoc's advice, and way around this little... git.
Unfortunately, now, as soon as I run the shortcut to hl2.exe on my main desktop, I get "Half-Life 2 had to be closed...." etc. from when a program dies, about sending an error report?

Any advice? :confused:

Re: Gmod needs CS:S?
 

I tried that but it didn't work.
Is there anything else you did that may have made it work?
