Author Topic: GMod not detecting Half Life 2 game models/maps etc  (Read 19308 times)

Ok, after converting over half life 2 and half life 2 episode 1, the hl2 episode 1 folder is still in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\myusername
Why is it not moving over to common?
Probably because them theirselves aren't switched over originally
In other words, they haven't updated it like Gmod did, like, you switched it over, and not everyone has switched to it either.

Anyways, you should still have content from HL2/Episodic on Gmod now.
The NPCs haven't been able to talk since quite a few updates ago
My NPC Metrocops still say things.

Are all the Episodic maps in the half life 2 map group?
I'm not seeing a category for Episodic maps, the total maps there are in Half life 2 maps are about 70+

They shouldn't be.

They shouldn't be.
Looks like this:

Nothing else below Half Life 2.

Have you played them once before playing Gmod?

Same thing with episode 2.
I had this problem until i converted it

I haven't (with the exception of Episode Two) but they work

The folders didn't move to the common folder.
They're still there in the folder they were in before conversion.

should i just reinstall steam or something?

Yes.The folders didn't move to the common folder.

They haven't moved to the common folder probably because it's only a beta, they convert to Steampipe, but it's only a beta, so i assume that's why they haven't moved

Why is it only showing a half life 2 category for maps and not the episodes though?

Here:
Did make sure that after opting into the Steampipe beta ('prerelease for CS:S) that you verified the game's cache files? That should get the maps and other content working

How would I verify game cache files?

How would I verify game cache files?
Right click a Source Engine game in your library, click Properties, click the Betas tab, click the drop-down menu and choose Steampipe beta (prerelease for CS:S), and once it says you've opted in, don't close the window down or Steam might forget your decision, while the properties window is still open, go to the Local Files tab and click 'Verify integrity of game cache...', you'll then be prompted with a message asking if you want to convert the game, choose yes (or OK or whatever the button is)

You must do this for each Source Engine game, one at a time, to ensure the game's contents will show up in Garry's Mod, these games you need to convert are Counter Strike: Source, Half Life 2, Half Life 2 Episode One, Half Life 2 Episode Two, and Portal

Team Fortress 2 is already on Steampipe (in non-beta form), so it does not require this action, and the contents of this game already work in Garry's Mod
