If you both play the game on the same computer the textures will be installed and copied over anyway. However if not you could go to this website go to the garrycontent page and scroll down to the part where it says Source Textures or something like that and add it to your

This will probably not help you in any scenario, but there are multiple CSS Textures already in the Steam Workshop of Garry's Mod: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/browse/?appid=4000

They are freely downloadable.

I didn't find much if family sharing would fix the problem, but I would give it a try since you own it anyway.

You don't need to own CSS to get the textures for Garry's Mod! Most people I would say don't own CSS :p It's also legal so no Issues there.

I've got GMod and just about every mainstream Valve game excepting CS:S. I'd like to play Prop Hunt, a GMod game mode. Is it possible to play Prop Hunt without CS:S, possibly by obtaining the files?

It's just textures (and maps, if you need it) for use as an addon to Garry's Mod.

This is completely legal because there is another [more complicated] method listed on the officially affiliated site which not only details in its FAQ why it's legal, but it uses SteamCMD (an official tool from Valve) with the login of anonymous (a free account) to get the files.

It depends. If the server is running a CS:S map, you probably won't be able to join. (I have CS:S so I can't say for sure) If they are running a map not prefixed for CS:S (de_, cs_, etc.) then you should be fine. However I have friends who have Gmod without CS:S, and they're reported issues. In playing a lot of Gmod gamemodes such as TTT or PH, they will be missing textures used by mapmakers from CS:S to make the map. This results in the map having a lot of missing texture errors and everything appearing as purple and black checkerboard on their screen.

As an alternate solution, have a friend Steam Family Share CS:S with you or login to his/her account on your computer, and download it. You won't be actually playing the game, but all the necessary files are in place.
