• Flailing ragdolls - how do I do it?
    8 replies, posted
I'm trying to find a way to make ragdolls flail in Gmod. I've seen it a lot in machinima, and I think it's hilarious - but I'm having trouble replicating it, instead relying on posing ragdolls in flaily positions and taking pictures of each frame. I've had a modicum of success with the Motor tool, tying bits of the ragdoll to each other or to nearby scenery, but after a couple seconds, it locks up. For an example of what I mean, check this video at 0:36 and 0:44. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0CQZkXsawM[/url] Any help/advice/stuff would be awesome. Thanks in advance :)
Attach thrusters to limbs.
thrusters you want to limbs you want moving, several low level thrusters for semi percision (one of my friends showed me how to make a ragdoll do rock paper scissors [except their hand doesn't change])
Okay, the thrusters work fine :) Thanks for the advice, but I do have one more question: is there a way to make the thrusters invisible, or to at least select a really small object to be the thruster? I only have the GMod defaults available, and the smallest one is a soda can, which is still pretty conspicuous >_>

Use the color tool and turn the alpha to zero. That will make the thruster invisible.
use the color tool, set the alpha to 0 damn you ninja
