I am having trouble with gmod missing maps yada yada yada everytime I try to download a map I don't have it and when I try to download it manually it's usually not on gmod.org
I also have tried renaming the second gmod to get a fresh start of it but eventually it did not work so if you guys can help me I would really appreciate it.

Delete the bugged map from your Gmod folder and try re-downloading it when you connect to the server.

Sometimes, the map will only download partially, before something on the server causes you to lose connection mid-download.

Things like that leave you with a partially downloaded map file. When you try to connect to the server again, it scans your maps folder to see if you have the map already downloaded.

When it sees it's there, it tries to compare it to the servers version. Clearly, since it's a corroupted map file, it's going to give you the "missing map" error, since it's not the same as the server versions.

So yeah. Just delete the bugged map from your Gmod folder and you should be fine.

I was going to suggest the fastDL on those servers might be broken. Try deleting or renaming your maps folder and restarting gmod and see if that fixes it.

FL Studio.

No problem.

Locking thread since it's resolved.

I also just noticed this was in the wrong board. Generally, the "help" board is where threads like this would go.
