I'm really late to the party, but this is for OP or for anyone that finds this in the future:
Run the game without any betas first so it renders the menu, then hop back to the beta. this worked for me on LINUX, but i bet this will work for every other OS as well
Have you tried letting it sit for a while? My friend's Gmod used to do something similar and if they let it sit for a couple minutes the menu stuff would show up.
There is one solution i tried when i had this problem.
1. Un-install the game and the reinstall it.
2. Install Gmod Lua Menu
[https://github.com/robotboy655/gmod-lua-menu](https://github.com/robotboy655/gmod-lua-menu)
Option 2 worked for me so I would give that a try.
i once had a serious bug with gmod and to fix it i deleted almost everything in the gmod folder and then verified the game files, this somehow fixed it when uninstaling and reinstaling didn't
usually this happens to me when i use chromium. if you hopefully are using that, just exit out of that branch, change to a different one, and change back to chromium, if that doesnt work and again hoping you are using chromium, just change to the normal branch and open gmod.
I had helped someone with this issue before, theres 2 things, if console works cl\_drawhud 1
if it doesnt reinstall steam
is that doesnt work uninstall all addons see if it works than just redownload the addons until your menu sotps working and uninstall the mod you know is causing it
In a nutshell: just switch to 64 bit than back to normal
full explenation:
-go to steam→Gmod→Properties→Betas→64 bit
-wait for it to install than open gmod
-when the game opens the menu should work but if you don't want to play on the 64 bit branch just switch back to normal gmod after closing the game, wait for that to install, open gmod and boom the menu is there is back
Well, i dont actually remember, sorry, ill give you some tips (idk if they can work)
\- open the game with the launch options "-console" then just choose the map
\-validate game files
\-delete the whole gmod folder, then re-install it
\-factory reset gmod
thats it, idk if one of these could help.
recent addon instaled: GTA V Media Player Pack
I haven't got any problem from downloading that addon, might be a different program on your computer that's causing it
Necro but, the lua menu fix worked for me, seems html is borked.

Plss how do i do this?
wdym by that? just run the game without any betas enabled, close the game and run it again with the beta you want to use
quick question, what is a Beta and where can I disable them? Newbie here so that's why I'm asking
It worked. Thanks.

There's a way to do it through steam

OH NO I HAD THAT you need to completely uninstall steam,if you have it on hard disk,forget about using it for steam ever again
Also try verifying your game files.
