HELP! strange gmod problem

[soulslicer]

this occurs in all gmod maps. the ground seems to be extremely unstable. the grassy grounds especially. when i place and objects on it, it just seems to sink through a little. ragdolls just seem to float and waddle around in the ground and are stuck in it. heavy objects just go bouncing around on the unstable ground. PLEASE HELP!!

i have done everything from reinstalling to defragging ect. ect.

Oh yes, this sounds like a regular HLM problem i used to encounter, and given that Gmod is based on the DM coding, i would suspect something alont those lines.

Wow, that's a REALLY old HL2DM bug, should have been fixed. Usually it does that after the server:
a) Has too high load (objects / players / whatever) and then (see b)
b) A seemingly random error occurs which screws up gravity and collision detection between objects and the map.

Usually restarting the server fixes it.

what you mean dm? this is gmod singleplayer..how do i fix it..i have reinstalled it many times..

 

[Jintor]

Technically should be fixed when you restart the map. I have no idea why yours isn't being fixed automagically...

oh, well i guess i just have to keep reinstalling everytime i play..
