Game keeps freezing.

[MalMal]

I’ve been playing for the past month and my laptop has been running smoothly. Out of no where my game started freezing, my screen will get pixelated for a second and then it’s just froze. I can hear people talking and they can hear me talking. The only way I can even exit the game is if I hit my windows button and then X out. I’ve tried resetting my whole laptop and it didn’t fix anything. I really need help, I’m getting so frustrated and I really like playing..

This might work though Im not sure since it doesn’t sound like a performance issue

Also you might wanna check for any windows or driver updates or make sure its not wifi since I used to have a similar problem but I found out it was my wifi.

Removed as I do more harm than good. DM me if you need assistance. Below is the only things you should look out for/use.

r_3dsky 0
r_shadows 0

required commands for multithreading (gmod_mcore_test 1 does not work without these)
gmod_mcore_test 1
mat_queue_mode -1
cl_threaded_bone_setup 1
cl_threaded_client_leaf_system 1
r_threaded_client_shadow_manager 1
r_threaded_particles 1
r_threaded_renderables 1
r_queued_ropes 1
studio_queue_mode 1

use the correct beta branch for 64-bit. If this crashes your game use the one that's an update behind.

Make sure you have no apps on in the background [that you dont need]

I had this same problem the other day. I had to update my driver and Windows. That fixed the issue.

I tried a bunch of stuff and it wasn’t working, turns out it was my laptop. I bought an actual gaming laptop and I have no problems
