Fix Media: x86-64 / GModCEFCodecFix Guide (macOS)
Visual Install Guide:
Step 1
First, close Garry's Mod.
Then open Steam, and right click Garry's Mod from your Library games list. Select Properties from the menu.
In the Properties window, select "Betas", then click on the Dropdown menu and select "x86-64 - Chromium + 64-bit Binaries"
Now you can close the properties window and wait for the update to download. Once it's done, proceed to the next step.
Download the Latest Release of GModCEFCodecFix for macOS.
GModCEFCodecFix
Open the .dmg file (this will mount it), then drag GModCEFCodecFix into the Applications folder shortcut to install it.
Proceed to the next step.
Run GModCEFCodecFix from your Applications folder. GModCEFCodecFix should now patch Garry's Mod. It may take some time depending on your internet connection speed.
Once it's done, you can launch GMod from the GModCEFCodecFix window by typing "yes" and pressing Enter.
Congratulations, you're done! 🎉
Tip: To make sure you remain patched and up to date, we recommend launching Garry's Mod through GModCEFCodecFix each time.
It is typically also safe to launch it from your Steam Library after it's been patched, however other ways of launching it may force Steam to perform a file integrity check.
If a file integrity check happens, or GMod gets an update, the patches may be removed and you will have to run the tool again to restore them.
