(GMod 12) SRCDS Freezes After Loading Server.cfg

[Pancakes]

Server OS: (Running off my pc) Vista business x86
Processor: Intel Xeon E5504 (2 GHz)
Ram: 2.4 GB
Game(s): Garrys Mod 12
Start Up Command: -console -game garrysmod +map rp_downtown_v2 +maxplayers 25
Admin Mods: ULX+Ulib, FAdmin

For about a month now, I've been running a GMod custom DarkRP server that has had minimal to no problems. One day, while starting the server, it froze. I thought it was just my computer being slow, so I restarted my computer. Every time I start up the server, it always freezes after it loads the server.cfg. I even went far enough to not only reinstall SRCDS, but I even set the default gamemode to sandbox to see if it was a problem with the gamemode. I have no idea what's wrong, all I know is that it used to work fine. Now it doesn't. Any help whatsoever would be appreciated, will post screencaps if necessary.

I don't understand what you're saying... It worked just fine until last week.

Hello?!?!?!?!?

Hello Pancakes,

I assume you realize that the newest Garry's Mod update has just come out. I highly recommend wiping out your entire server and doing a fresh install at this point. The current gamemode and addons you're using a broken due to the nature of Garry's Mod 13. There was a lot of core code change that broke 99% of addons.

You can find the newest version of DarkRP here; https://github.com/FPtje/DarkRP

I also highly recommend using this startup command;

Code:

-console -game garrysmod -port 27015 +map rp_downtown_v2 +maxplayers 25 -autoupdate

There are also a lot of new changes that have been made to the convar commands including the gamemode command. You want to start by changing your server config over to the one down below;

Code:

"hostname" "DarkRP Server"
"rcon_password" "put your rcon password here"
"sv_password" ""

"sbox_godmode" "0"
"sbox_noclip" "0"
"sbox_maxprops" "25"
"sbox_maxnpcs" "0"
"sbox_maxragdolls" "0"
"sbox_maxeffects" "0"
"sbox_maxballoons" "0"
"sbox_maxdynamite" "0"
"sbox_maxlamps" "0"
"sbox_maxlights" "0"
"sbox_maxthrusters" "0"
"sbox_maxwheels" "0"
"sbox_maxhoverballs" "0"
"sbox_maxvehicles" "0"
"sbox_maxbuttons" "10"
"sbox_maxturrets" "0"
"sbox_maxspawners" "0"
"sbox_maxemitters" "0"
"sbox_plpldamage" "0"

//"sv_downloadurl" "You fast download url"
"sv_allowupload" "1"
"sv_allowdownload" "1"
"net_maxfilesize" "100"

"sv_lan" "0"
"sv_region" "0"

"sv_minrate" "5000"
"sv_maxrate" "30000"
"decalfrequency" "10"
"sv_maxupdaterate" "100"
"sv_minupdaterate" "30"
"sv_maxcmdrate" "100"
"sv_mincmdrate" "30"

Feel free to customize it how you want, it's just all the basic stuff you need for a Garry's Mod RP server.

In order to get any gamemode to work you want to create and autoexec.cfg and put it in the same directory as the server.cfg and fill it with the following;

Code:

"gamemode" "darkrp"
"sv_scriptenforcer" "1"

If you need help with anything feel free to PM me.
