Argh, and to think I put off watching the whole series until later. Is there any other guide like this? or is this THE facepunch ragdolling guide?
Nope, the best thing to do now is to read his post tutorials or ask questions.

But of course, Who else but him. Everything is private for him. :v:
I give up on this. I keep getting a diamond physics model in model viewer. I just can't do it.
I used a trick, where I created cuts in the reference model to cheat and for the compiler to generate the physics model for me. however when the compiler was updated from HL2 > OrangeBox this trick no longer worked. the videos are obsolete, and need to be redone. I need to focus more on the QC and materials, rather then the max side. I may redo the videos, but just haven't much reason to revisit the subject. anyway create the physics model using boxes, or you can try your luck using the old compiler HL2ep1
I did the cut up method and it worked fine for me. Could be that you are forgetting to have everything in one smoothing group and one texture for the whole mesh. Forgetting those gave me the blob-phys mesh.

Usually still works if you cap the model. Though making your own collision model is still the better option imho.
OK, so I followed the ragdoll tutorial to the letter, but when I compile the model, it skips the Head, Neck, & Shoulder bones. It acts as if they don't exist. So when I view the model's physics model, every collision shows except the head (I didn't assign any vertices to the shoulders or neck intentionally):

ACK!!!
So much information!
Well, I can forget about making ragdolls myself then...
Ok, how would I ragdoll turrets of a starship?
i need your qc file !!

SteamStartup() failed: SteamStartup(0xf,0x0018F170) failed with error 1: failed to take master pipe connection lock
I've tried restarting but it doesn't help, plus SDK now just crashes on me...
[h2]ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS.[/h2]
Instead of BUMPING a dead thread MESSAGE MARIOKART64N.

Go to Help & Support (Or at least make a thread here at modeling) for these types of things.

bee-tee double-u, are there gonna be other parts of the tut? Mario got unbanned, so I think he could finish the rest (if he wants to).
[QUOTE=Trek;37591684]bee-tee double-u, are there gonna be other parts of the tut? Mario got unbanned, so I think he could finish the rest (if he wants to).[/QUOTE]
It already is finished, just look at the videos.
I was unable to get the source SDK working again..
I had to reformat, now I don't have anything from before.
If I want to complete the tuts (yes they're not complete) then I would have to start from scratch. not to mention I've been out of action for quite some years. So I can only imagine I would have to become active again and do porting to get my bearings again.
completing the guides might take awhile being how life is for me right now.
what I can give you though is what originally gave me the push I needed to learn all of this

on my skydrive there are 3 videos from another FP member since unactive. but everything I know came from those 3 videos, watching dozens of times over and through trial and error.
with that I wish you goodluck ;)
heu can someone make a mother 3 pigmask model?

Reupload .vmt fix, thanks :)
[QUOTE=Exaco;41579910]Reupload .vmt fix, thanks :)[/QUOTE]
Not likely to happen. After mariokart64n was banned last time, he pretty much said fuck it to coming back here. Even if you were to send a PM, I doubt it would be answered. Just check his Skydrive link or try to fix the .VMT yourself.
I'm gonna try bring these to gmod....

Is there an updated guide for this?
[QUOTE=Gyroscopic;44333719]Is there an updated guide for this?[/QUOTE]
no there isn't, Mario hasn't had the time to make a new version of this and everyone else doesn't really cares about making a new guide..
Bummer, I tried to find 3ds.. and it was about 3k.. I can't afford that shit.

If you attend a school you could probably get an educational license for free.
Check with the tech department.
Im in high school sadly.
[QUOTE=Gyroscopic;44336900]Im in high school sadly.[/QUOTE]
you should be able to get the student version of 3d max because if your smart you could save enough money up and buy it once your ready for university depending on what you want to do.. and if there are subs for university.
Hmm.. I'll check into it!
If anyone can find an updated guide or help side, Please pm them to me!
Afaik, you can enter in fake data on their website and get a student license.
