Garry's Mod taking up 1/8 of my hard drive space - Klinex - Oct 10, 2017

ello, so basically garry's mod is taking up a stupid amount of hard drive space (125gb). The downloads folder contains most of the big stuff but all the file names are like 536457457.gma.

I'm guessing this is server content from servers i've joined, but i'm wondering more about what's safer to delete without messing up materials since i cannot be bothered to go through fixing materials if i reinstall haha

Cheers

They should all be safe to delete, due to the fact they'll be re-downloaded if required. However, this may increase your connection times.

However, materials and such will be re-downloaded when you connect if required, increasing your connection time.
