Help With HLDJ on Gmod

Post by frandude »

I think i did everything right, like all the setup stuff, but 2 things are odd. First, i selected the directory of Gmod but it doesn't show the Gmod logo, but it does for all my other games. Also, whenever i try to play in Gmod, it starts up Source SDK Base instead. Help me please.

The starting up Source sdk is cause of something in gameinfo.txt so cancel that and launch Gmod from steam and it won't show the logo for some reason

As Game Zombie mentioned, Source SDK is launched due to Gmod's incorrect gameinfo.txt. To prevent this, In HLDJ Options un-check "Launch game" and start the game manually instead.

HLDJ use the game logo from "game.ico" located in the game directory; some games do not include this file, so HLDJ will not have an icon for it unless you specify one manually via "Use custom icon" in advanced setup.

I see, thanks guys! I'm going to try using HLDJ on Garry'smod right now, but I'm kind of scared because it wouldn't work for L4D2.

I can't personally help with L4D2 as I don't own it, but I've seen others use HLDJ with it before. I don't see any reason to believe it would be different than any other game.
