Reposting my comment from another thread because it needs to be made clear:
Those mod devs are absolute assholes.
As per the decompiled code, the game will refuse to load in certain cases with the message “Upgrade your PC, the current hardware is just ridiculous.” I can understand not wanting to field support requests from extremely outdated hardware, but being condescending and not even giving players the option to try playing it…
“You are too poor for this mod, peasant”, basically.
One of the devs stream ids from the decompiled code:

Why am I not surprised that they’re Russian 😅
I used to help test Gmod mods and this was common to find. Sometimes the author would even try to embed an obfuscated check for their own steamid to give them God rights over the multiplayer game session.
We would collect those steam IDs and add them to the ban list. And often switch mods all together.
I probably wouldn’t have even heard of this mod if the creators had not been this bitter about the poor reception.
Me neither; but now I’m going to check it out for the laughs. Mission accomplished?
Honestly, recreational rage deserves punchback
