GMOD help

[Fullmetal]

So I recently bought GMOD and I'm having a problem connecting to online servers. Whenever I try to connect to a server I get the message in console "Invalid Steam Key Size" or I get "client and server products do not match" or "Missing map/whatever.bsp, disconnecting"
Anyone know how to fix this?

You should have just bought DoD:S lol jk.. But i have no idea.

After some research the "client and server products do not match" means that the server is an old version server.

The client and server error is just because there was an update and the server has yet to update. The missing map part is because you dont have the map the server is on. There is an option somewhere in options that allows you to auto download stuff when connecting to the servers. As for the steam key part idk whats up with that. Steam support should know.

you need to get some addons, i.e. Wiremod, PHX3, and download a s*** ton of maps from garrysmod.org

some of the servers havent updated, ill post some fun servers in the Gmod Thread if you guys would like that

Missing map means you gotta go search for the map they're on on garrysmod.org.

well, I've downloaded some maps, now the problem is it crashes when it gets to "sending client info" every time.
