[@3lH4ck3rC0mf0r7]

SMH can play back the animations in real time, and you can bind that play button to any key in your keyboard using the Source Engine console without having to bring up the SMH GUI, so it's seamless. Notice how immediately after grabbing Luigi with the physgun they unfreeze him so that he'll actually ragdollize and come along. That probably took a few takes to get right.

Seeing this tutorial just reminds me of how far Gmod animations have come, from the pinnacle being considered just throwing invisible thrusters on a ragdoll and going wild to THIS. Also, remember kids, SAVE. You think his saving here is overexcessive, but if you ever work in any professional field, or have a creative hobby, or even just play games, for the love of god, SAVE. You never know when a random application crash, blue screen, or power outage is gonna happen. And you don't wanna be ripped out of like 2+ hours of work just because you decided to put off saving for later.

[@M3rk420]

I normally go to these kinds of videos for inspiration, I right now suck ass at making gmod animations, I just fail to make thing smooth, but each time I see a gmod video by Eltorro or CrazyScout I feel like I can do something better. And after I fail, I watch another video, again and again, Until I finally made a gmod video that is at least decent.

Henry's Animation Tool! Haha I remember using that back in the day. So cool to see this still going strong

[@MetaBloxer]

This tutorial has helped me a lot in GMod shenanigans, and I've learned a few more things along the way: -If you want to be able to change faces without messing with posing, look into the timeloine feature. It lets you have frames that are only for pose and only for other things, so they aren't connected. -I had to rewatch this a few times to get what the add/remove frame smoothing was for. Ease in/out is for the speed of the movement, while Eltorro's trick is for the position and rotation. -If you want to edit a bone you can't select (such as fingers, part of limbs, or jigglebones), you can through the tree view in the context menu. Personally, the finger poser confuses me and seems restricted, so I'll likely just use the ragdoll mover for it. I love the ragdoll mover, even for moving props and such, but it has some issues. -The thingy doesn't appear the very first time I select a bone with it, but re-selecting that bone seems to work. -It completely stops working on bones that go in the ground, so I would really recommend avoiding that. -The scale mode looks a lot like the position mode, so watch out for that too (you can reset bone scale and rotation in the menu). This happens to me a lot because I often middle-click with the tool equipped while in other menus. -Sometimes, bones are just very hard to select on a model. Eltorro likely has the right approach, using the RDM for the spine and such and the physgun for arms and head, but the tree view is perfect if you prefer RDM's precision.

[@VenoM-gz7vi]

How to animate the arms and legs right after body? First i was animating body and after this i wanted to animate the arm, just like Eltorro64rus did in this tutorial. But arm was stick at the start pose on all frames. That means that after changes arm returns to start pose

I've experimented with some animation recently and watched some videos that explained animation very well. Now, I have the perspective that all animation can be boiled down to establishing ideas, knowing the hows and whys of various types of movement and timing, and knowing when to pull back. That especially applies to animators like you who make straight-up insane and impossible movements that amplify the comedy but aren't too distracting or don't ruin the flow of the animation. I've also been learning that animation itself isn't all that complicated, it's just very time-consuming.

I know these comments are cliched but your animations helped through even my worst days and I'm so glad you take the time and effort to keep making them. I love the worlds you come up with like Demobender and 10000 years of evolution. Thank you for sharing what happens in your goofy head, Eltorro64rus, you are a true artist.

Thanks! I will definitely use these tricks. I am still improving my animations daily but now that I know how to smooth, it will be MUCH better. Thanks man😊

i tried your smoothing method and keyframing method with a 10 minute bake and it turned out, actually better than i expected, like this was the first time i smiled after trying to animate something again

What the actual duck, this video has been released a day after I started looking for new tutorials about gmod animation and this god just updated after years, coincidence? I dont think so

[@CliveHandforthTheCalendarMan]

Soldier taking the examples are the best parts of the video. Box: 1:32 Scout: 7:03

your gmod animations look so smooth that it looks like it's all done in sfm. just wonderful!
