gmod loading problem... AGAIN.. - Rushi- - Dec 17, 2018
So ye, i made already a thread about this, i did everything, it worked.
But now... It doesn't work for any reason. Since yesterday, that randomly after loading the gmod it just get stuck in the blue screen. Today, i tried again, didn't work, i removed all my addons it does work but, when i download the Limelight collection it get's the screen frozen. I don't know what to do, i already removed checked game files, removed all addons from the addons file at Gmod file and nothing, idk what to do.

Rename addons folder to "addons1"
Restart steam
Wait for it
Remove addons1
Play

Pretty much what @Armard said, I had the exact same issue yesterday night and today, I had to delete all my addon files and relaunch the game for it to finally stop freezing the second it loaded the game.
So you can either delete all .gma files from your garrysmod/addons folder or do what armard suggested.

Some addons that get taken down from workshop appear as hidden files, removing the entire file makes sure there aint no hidey swines

@Project
Not really, taken down addons still remain as visible .gma files on the game folder as far as I am aware. Regardless, both ways do exactly the same, it not making a new folder makes it easier to move over "system addons" (the ones that are not downloaded from the workshop but someone has put the file there intentionally.)

It happened to me like once per two months, re-doing it will fix it again
And @Project i said some as not all of them, i have experienced the hidden files with about two addons that got taken off workshop for explicit content, where the content would still remain ingame, yet wont be seen in the folder

You can remove all addons. Then, you can download them on the main screen on GMod through Steam Overlay Webpage.
That's what I do.
