My friends cant join me and all it says is "Client info sent!"

Solution
in chroium ye
Ight if you both either change to chromium branch or the complete standard Garry’s Mod it might be your first solution if that does not work then continue reading.

This is a short list of what might work and what might be causing this issue.

1. I would as the first thing check my pc for any anti-virus or firewalls in general as those can fuck a bit with you being the host, if that doesn't fix anything we know firstly its not an issue on your system messing something up with Garry's Mod. Make your friend do this step as well, firewalls can mess up you trying to connect to any server or multiplayer game in general.

2. If you and your friend have any other Source games such as Team Fortress 2, verify integrity of...

Also try this:
  • Go to the following directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod (Your Garry's Mod directory)
  • Upon stumbling upon this lovely section, you will find a file that goes by the name "FactoryReset-GMod.bat"
  • Simply open it up, enter "Y" (stands for yes, to proceed) and this will remove all content and any data Garry's Mod has on you.
  • Open up Garry's Mod via Steam and allow it to 'reconfigure' itself.
  • ENJOY!

Have you tried to Verify your game files using steam libary? to do this, go to steam, right click go to properties, head to "Installed Files" and then click verify intergrity of installed files, this might solve your issue.

This has been done several times and this has failed. Verifying does not help you on the " Client Info Sent " error as I call it in this case.
