@Noseian Just wouldn't be CG without a bit of Noseian in the mix what a legend.
Now I'm just gonna be @ing people because I can't write a line for everyone but it doesn't mean I like you any less
@Wiggles @ByReaper @Radontrax @Skinnyfatboy @Duck78 @Baumann @Riph @DC @S1CK @RzVibration @Sprickles @Avionix @Lucifer™ and kev bail but couldn't find his @ lol @Toxic Squirrel @Paul @Toast @MR man @jtwepiczombie

An easy guide on how to make gif avatars for the forums
________________________________________________________
Recommendations:
Resolution:
Width: 127px; Height: 127px
File size:
<50kb
________________________________________________________
Any short gif that is on a loop.
There are a few places to find some good gifs but here are some I have found:
R/PerfectLoops
Giphy#1
Giphy#2
________________________________________________________
What to do if the gif is >50kb:
Compress the gif I.E
Make it shorter and/or quicker.
Delete duplicate frames from the gif.
Make the resolution smaller.
You can do this on a couple of websites however I would recommend these sites:
EZ gif (This is the best one to use)
Gif compressor
Picasion

Grzegorz is literally on duty every time I join the server, he puts his staff job in-front of his RP work. He is a friendly and chill dude and I will definitely +supporting him when he does his admin application ❤️ Just thought I'd say something in case he doesn't get noticed
You may just need to restart your game again, although it could be a different issue as Logan pointed out. If you have printers it's understandable, try restartng once you're done
Welcome to my FPS Boost guide. Altrough CloudGaming's servers are very good at not slowing down your laptop/pc/toaster, people with bad computers still have this issue (I do too myself). In this guide I will be showing you how to boost your FPS on Garry's Mod!
1. Ingame Settings
1.1 Start Up Garry's Mod
1.2 Go to Options and click Video
1.3 Change your resolution to lowest possible
- It causes little to no fps boost (prehaps for 5-10 fps) but it still is reccomended to do if your pc is really that bad.
-Makes everything hard to spot.
1.4 Change Settings
- Model Detail, Texture Detail, Shader Detail, Shadow Detail must be set all to low to insanely increase your FPS,
- Water Detail must be set to Simple Reflections,
- Color Correction must be disabled,
- Anitalising Mode set to None,
- Filtering Mode set to Blinear,
- Wait For Vertical Sync (Vsync) is reccomended to be disabled but if your screen starts tearing, you may enable it. || Example of screen tearing by @Toast : ||
2. Launch Options
2.1 Go to your Steam Libary, Find Garry's Mod, right click and go to properties
2.2 Go to General, Click set launch options, and type whats on the image shown above (You can also copy paste it down below)
-windowed causes your game to run in windowed mode,
-noborder causes your game to run in windowed borderless mode,
-dxlevel should be set to 90, it can also be set to 81 but that causes for you not to see the prop material in game and dxlevel 81 is probally against the rules,
-w (set your screen width)
-h (set your screen height)
-novid (does nothing in garry's mod, idk why its put in in the image shown above but for some reason it does increase fps)
-nojoy (not listed above) disables joystick commands
3. Config
This step is usually not hard to do but it may be confusing for new players.
3.1 Go to your autoexec located at C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\cfg and find the autoexec file and open it with Notepad or Notepad++
3.2 Copy the commands you want and into your cfg file.

3.3 Save it and close it 4. Enjoy your boosted game!
It took me alot of time to write this guide for you, and hopefully it will work for you!
Commands suggested by others:
mat_showlowresimage 1 ( @Obi Juan Kenobi )
-threads 4 (this command is based on your CPU threads.) (Put it in the launch options.) ( @squidward)
-high (Makes your game run on High priority) (unintentionally reccomended by @mumppe)
It has to be compressed to legit like 100x under the required size. It took me a while to do mine and @Logan's.
If you can't get a really small gif then you're out of luck and will have to find another.

Does every sit in a detailed manner, was the only one OD for about 1 hour today and was tanking all the sits. I can see him going high up the ranks. keep it up!
A while back i paid 70 for a minigun that was perma if you remember, I am wondering if i can get it back or get the credits for its back to buy it in the token store. If possible i could get my ithaca too unless taken off then store.
