Good day, today we will describe how to remove pink ERROR textures in Garry's Mod. Garry's Mod is a kind of sandbox where the player can control objects, play with physics, the Source engine is responsible for the implementation of the game space. Initially, the mod was developed for a comprehensive demonstration of the powerful capabilities of the engine at one time. In November 2006, Garry's Mod ceased to be a separate modification and became a full-fledged game that is offered on Steam.
To work and run the Harris mod (from version 10 to 13 inclusive), it was necessary to install another game on the Sors engine, Counter-Strike: Source, Portal or Half-Life 2. In version 13, Garry's Mod initially includes Half-Life 2.
When starting Garik, players often see black-pink textures, as they are also called emo textures.

GarrysMod is a unique physical sandbox where you can add a variety of add-ons and create an unusual world. The game was an add-on to Half-Life2, but due to its popularity it was released as separate application... The advantage is that the player can independently create models or add downloaded packs of models or original objects to the game.

As in any other game, problems with the installation and normal functioning of various materials can also appear here. This can happen due to incorrect transfer of files to a specific location or due to incorrect format of embedded objects. There are several ways to install CS: Source correctly.

Method one: fix installation errors

If you have downloaded an absolutely "empty" Harris Mod, then there will be nothing to play with, respectively. To do this, you need to download the pack from third-party resources and move it to the game folder. The mod is made on the Source engine, so there shouldn't be any problems installing this type of modified content.

For installation, the user does not need license cards, so only models and special devices need to be downloaded. They are archived and can be downloaded from any online resource that offers additional content for Harris Mod. It is important that before installation the user already has a licensed version of CS: Source or has a content pack.

The archive is downloaded and unzipped to the desktop. All objects must be selected and transferred to the "Steam \ steamapps \ common \ GarrysMod \ garrysmod \ addons" folder. This is the place where all add-ons for the game are stored and which can be added or removed.

In case you need to install a server - you need to check which addons you are subscribed to. This can be found on the official steam site. After that, you need to remove all add-ons from the folder and download again. In this case, no problems with the subsequent game should arise.

Method two: how to install content without problems

The advantage of the second method is that:

You can enable and disable content;
Installed on any version;
Any content;
Any format.

To install additional materials, you first need to download them. You can find it on a third-party site or use CFToolbox. After downloading, you need to install the GCFScape program.

We launch the program and look for a content file, its standard extension is gcf. Opening it, you need to find the folder itself with additional materials, for example "cstrike". We press unpack to any convenient place and go to the configuration folder, for example: mount.cfg. it standard file, which is in absolutely any game or program. This file contains lines like this:

{« original name of the place with content» « path to content folder«}

The user needs to register his own folder and save the settings. After that, you can go into the game and enjoy the new objects. If a mod needs to be disabled, just comment out the "\\" line. So, the modification will be disabled.
