How To Make A Gmod Ragdoll In Blender



A long time ago in 2009, I made many different playermodels for a game called Garry's Mod. I made this tutorial a long time ago, but I decided to make a copy of it here before it eventually gets purged from it's original post. Many of the things listed below may be outdated, the steps for preparing the model are mostly the same. Jan 17, 2012.

Scripted Weapons

Make

Better known as a SWep (or SWEP in some cases) a scripted weapon is a weapon that has an underlying script controlling its operation. Popular choices for SWeps include launching objects, such as watermelons or chairs, and 'better' versions of existing weapons, like a crossbow that can shoot several bolts per second. In this tutorial, we will be making a SWep with the RPG Launcher model to fire chairs.

Where to start

First of all, it is suggested you download a good code editor such as Notepad++, with a GMod Lua syntax highlighter like this one. This will make your life a lot easier. See Getting Started With Lua for help.

The Basic Layout

Go to the directory (folder): <Steam Folder>/steamapps/<Steam Username>/garrysmod/garrysmod/lua. The default location of the steam folder is C:Program FilesSteam, or C:Program Files (x86)Steam for 64-bit operating systems.

Tip:
Note how the underscore _ has been used to replace spaces.

Files

In a SWep, there are normally 3 script files:

  • shared.lua
  • init.lua
  • cl_init.lua

init.lua is run Serverside. Doom 2 movie full. This environment will contain functions that will affect the server, such as killing players or throwing things.

cl_init.lua is run Clientside. This is for functions that will affect clients individually. It is used for things like rendering shoot effects/explosions.

shared.lua is run in both environments (server/clientside). Normally this is used only for weapon information.

There is however, an alternative way of laying out SWeps. It is possible to to include both the server-only and client-only code in the shared.lua file. Simply put the serverside/clientside code inside an if statement like so: Myriad 4 2 1 – audio batch processor.

Tip:
You can also use the else/elseif statement instead of two if statements, to tidy up the code.

An example of this is shown below:

SWEP Information

At the top of the shared.lua file, you can enter all of the information that will define a SWep's name, category, and certain behaviours, amongst other things. Your SWep will work without most of this information, but it's ideal to include details.

The next piece of information is important. It tells Garry's Mod what player groups can see the SWep in the Spawn (Q) Menu.

This information is also important. It defines the SWep's models. Copied 1 1 4 – clipboard manager with icloud sync.

The following code sets up the SWeps primary/secondary fire and ammo.Primary:

List of ammo types

The same applies to the secondary system:

Sounds

It is always good practice to precache sounds, so there is no delay when using the gun. It can be done as below:

Functions

This is where we define what the SWep will do.

Unused Functions

Both Reload() and Think() are not needed by this SWep so we will provide empty functions for them.

Throw Function

This function we are defining will spawn and throw the chair. It accepts one argument, the filename of the model to be used. That means it can be used to throw almost anything, from barrels to ragdolls.

Attack Functions

Now we've defined the function to spawn and throw props, we need to define the ones that will actually be triggered when we fire:

Completed SWep

Once the above is combined, you will have a fully functional chair throwing RPG Launcher. When creating your own SWeps, it's ideal to check and re-check your code. Even the world's best developers make mistakes.

Below is a combination of the code snippets above, Don't just copy the code, make sure you understand it beforehand.


Notes

  • Page from which world/view model names were retrieved here
  • When you make a SWep or code anything, it's a good idea to note down what you want the script to do. It just makes life alot easier and this way you won't get sidetracked.
  • A useful list of sounds you can use can be found here. Use sounds that suit the SWep your making, so if you're making a SWep that shoots babies, don't make the shoot sound that of an AR2 or perhaps an engine. Use something like BaseGrenade.BounceSound.
  • Last of all, before you start developing/coding anything, have a good idea in your mind of who it will appeal to, how it will work. It is also a good idea to have a Garry's Mod user handy, someone who can test and offer improvements to your script.
