[Solved] Why must it validate. 11 years, 5 months ago #116877

Launching Garry's mod is a pain now. It has to validate the game files and for me, it takes about 20 minutes. If you cancel the process, does that mean you have a pirated copy? I would gladly accept any assistance. Thank's guys

I get this too with Team Fortress 2, except it does it at random times, sometimes steam startup and sometimes after closing a game. I got pretty annoyed at it so I just un-installed it and problem solved! Although I doubt this would help in your case.

Girl: ahhhhhh it hurts stop!
Boy: i think it's supposed to slide in?
Girl: maybe because it is too small?

Boy: okay then let's try putting on another shoe.

I had the same problem with a few games in the past, a normal steam restart helped through

Well if you do have a pirated copy I highly suggested you buy the legitimate version...

No J0K3RZ, I don't have a pirated copy. I bought Garry's mod with Team Fortress 2, back when TF2 wasn't free. I tried restarting steam, it seems to never work. I guess I just have to deal with it.
