Garry's Mod

Garry's Mod

Simple Custom Shaders
At random, the shaders stop working and the screen goes black
Something I noticed happening quite often! It doesn't seem to relate to which map I'm on or what addons I have. And sometimes the shaders just don't work, but don't turn the screen black either :P (also unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any errors about this, though I should probably look a little deeper)

Made this post to not just report about it, but in hopes to find out whether this is the addon's fault or Garry's Mod's. And if there is anything (other than reloading) that could help with it!

Currently I'm running the beta branch of Garry's Mod (for performance). I'm also on Linux, and I'm using the Linux native version of Garry's Mod.

Oh wow I'm just now seeing this, sorry.

Not sure why this could be happening, hasn't happened to me ever in all my testing. Might be a Linux issue that I can't reproduce since I don't have a Linux machine.
no worries :P
If you want, you could give this a try https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/about which in very simple terms lets Windows run Linux programs.
You could then install the Linux version of Steam through it and then the Linux version of Garry's Mod (unless Steam is able to give you this option right away after setting up WSL)!

Oh btw, it is still happening :(
