... gmod engine error

[jajolt]

I launched gmod today.

 

Got to the loading screen, before the models and shit load, and it crashes and when it closes out, it gives me the half life 2 symbol and the title engine error:

 

[steam] SteamApps() is NULL

 

All I did was uninstall hl2:lc nothing else...

 

I have uninstalled, and everything, help me please.

 

EDIT: Doesn't do this with any other source game, I launched css successfully, but I tried to connect to jailbreak and it said that I'm in insecure mode and need to restart. Restart steam?

Right click on GMod in the Steam menu, Properties, Local Files, Verify Integrity of Game Cache. That's what I do for CSS when I get the same error message.

Nope, didn't work

Since GMod relies on files from Source games, it's possible that uninstalling that Half Life episode affected the content of your GMod files.

 

Here's some more information on the error. It may just pass on its own as well.

I still have HL2, not lost coast tho. I own all of my games legally.

 

EDIT: I will reinstall LC and see if that helps.

 

EDIT OF MY EDIT: Nope

First question: do you have Avast?

 

If not, second question

 

Have you tried deleting clientregistry.blob and restarting your Steam client?
