Back to Gmod, and the “angry virus”

With my health post out of the way, I can post about what I did with gaming.
Eversince I updated my drivers due to that thing I saw in Mirror’s Edge, I haven’t played much. I was planning to get Spore Galactic Adventures today, but … lets say things came up.

Anyway, I did get back into Gmod, with help from angry. And I think it was a mistake asking for his help in getting the mess of files I had backupped from my last reinstall of Windows.
There’s a problem with Gmod. It’s not a lock up, but I think I got an “angry virus”. It seems like any Spacebuild map, about…ohh lets say 15-30 seconds after I get in and walk around the start area, my FPS drops like a bag of rocks.
It struggles to get back up to a comfortable level, but something keeps yanking it down to below 20 FPS.
Sometimes it just sits at 10 FPS. The reason why I call it a “virus” is because, it’s happening to him too, and it originally happened with him.
So I’m thinking “You fucking idiot! You fucked up my Gmod!!”, but he is my friend and I shouldn’t be so mad, and thought “Hmmm.. but still, no one in Facepunch is reporting this issue”.

I’m thinking Gmod is saying “HAHAHA.. no” to just copy/pasting my garrysmod folder, and wants me to reinstall every little fucking thing one by one. All I know is this did not happen before.
I will have to go through hell to know what I downloaded, where I downloaded it, and where does it install. And I don’t have the patience to do that.

I’m not even using any SpaceBuild gamemode. Why? Spacebuild is dead to me. It “died” when Version 2 came out which meant bye bye using a Climate Regulator on your ship. It was like a cheat code.
Plus I keep hearing Version 3 is still full of bugs, and I think production of it has stopped before full release. And it’s just not fun anymore when I can’t go on a Spacebuild server without lagging like shit.
That’s why I don’t deal with Spacebuild anymore. However I still enjoy Spacebuild maps. Especially with the flyable SBEP ships.

But anyway, I have to take care of this god damn slowness. Plus… why is it taking 5 fucking minutes to load a map?
