My LUST for nick is immeasurable.

ok. now I get it.

@Red Pop Mouse

Nick Valentine is a possible companion character from the Bethesda Game "Fallout 4".

Garry's mod is a Sandbox game that allows players to use ported models from Steam released games and pose them any way they like in any background they like, compatibility and availability permitting, there wasn't a model of Nick Valentine that would work in Garry's mod, so I had one made and I uploaded it here, which is what you see before you.

Best way I can explain it.

I don't get it.

@Dean copguy

Well, you can request it, but I didn't actually put this model together, Dracagon and Juggernaut did that (their profiles are in the description), and even then the model was already on SFM, but you're welcome to approach one or both of these guys and other talented model porters who are around. However, you'll have to be willing to pay (I sure did, this actually cost quite a bit, but it was worth it).

Now If you have that hard a time to do it, I can always try.

Can you Please Make Synth Shaun? because if it has to be like Fallout it needs Shaun. Shaun is everything from the Game i request him please

"I know the plastic and wires ain't comforting, but now isn't the time for that"

..I can see where you get that from (Probably the hat and the hand), but newp, this is pretty much a straight port from the game, so...any resemblance to Freddy Krueger or any other serial killer dream-ghost is strictly coincidental.

He looks a lot like Freddy Krueger

XD That's okay, you'd be surprised how many times Canadian comedians use stereotypes in their act, lol

ah okay, didn't realize you were Canadian. I see that now since you used "eh" lmao (sorry for bad stereotype lol)

Eh, guess I'm not well versed in U.S. history(I mostly know Canadian history)

fo4 minutemen are basically just the minutemen from the revolution, except i don't have any good models from that era, so i'd just use the partisan jackets combined with laser musket/militia hat. dunno where you got civil war era lmao

@Afuea8143

Eh, well, The Minutemen are more Civil War Era (I think, will have to do research on that), but you're still welcome to put that up in the Artwork Discussion thread(saw that you put that other pic up there, looks good)

also i can make my own minutemen, i got a laser musket and minutemen hats, so i can just use some old ww2 era partisans by comradivan

lmao you can add artwork from other people if they give consent, no copyright issues. haven't even heard of copyright issues on an addon preview pics, i've done it for a few different mods

@afuea8143

I'm also really glad the ragdoll's working (again, if you had the issue, other people probably would too, so it was probably best to get it fixed)

As for your picture, I went and added a discussion for artwork, you can post it there if you like.

@afuea8143

Yeah, Paypal's terms of service clearly state that you have to be 18 (or the age of majority where you live) to have a Paypal account(And your parents aren't allowed to sign you up either). So that's out of the question.

Anyway, all that aside, that picture of yours looks very good, It's a shame there's no Railroad or Minutemen models out there, or the picture would have a lot more context (If it were to be used as a preview picture [which I don't think I can do, due to copyright (after all, it's YOUR picture, not mine)]

Let me see if I can add a gallery or something.

yo i made a pic of it, maybe could work as a preview pic or somethin

I would've donated to you, but I kinda don't have a PayPal since I'm still in high school. All I can say right now is thanks a lot for taking the time to get this model fixed :)

@Afuea8143

I didn't actually do this, Juggernaut did, but it was a paid job, and it wasn't cheap ._.;; (which makes sense, it takes work and processing power to do that)

Look at my artwork page, it'd probably be something like that. Also thank you so much for doing this, dude. I'll use the model tomorrow or on Saturday, because I have tests today and tomorrow. high school's nasty lmao

@Afuea8143

Depends on what kind of picture you make.

At any rate, the rig did have some fixes done to it and I (hopefully) implemented them into the workshop addon (I'm new to this)

Do you mind if I make some artwork of this and you can use it as a preview picture?

@afuea8143

well, if the rig's gonna screw up for you, it might screw up for other people too, so might as well try to do something to get it fixed, I just hope that it doesn't stay screwed up after the the guy fixes it >_>;;

Holy shit you did all of this for a fix? Nick Valentine soft lamp artwork might be poppin up on my profile for a while

@Afuea8143 Well, apparently Juggernaut can perform a fix on it, I certainly hope it works, because it did take some doing, and it didn't come cheap >_>;;;

Yep, I'll have to wait and see what happens (sorry, but I'm not actually a modeler or a rigger, I just put this character up in my workshop >_>;;)

Well, thanks a lot for taking the time to attempt to fix the issues, I'll wait for the results :)

@Alufea8143

Well, someone I worked with in the past offered to try and fix the issues, I linked him to this discussion thread, sorry it won't be before school starts for you though =/

the legs don't bend back
- I can't move the knee area back and forth, like almost all other ragdolls I use
trying to pose the ragdoll itself is a nightmare
- it's not very flexy, and it won't bend because if one part of the ragdoll is froze the whole ragdoll starts flying around, which doesn't allow me to pose any of it
- it doesn't have very good flexing abilities in general, nowhere near like the type of flexibility I'd find on a model like by comradivan.

Okay I guess source recorder isn't gonna work, since every time I try to record, I can't access the escape menu or anything else and I'm forced to close gmod by the taskbar since I can't use the escape menu to disconnect. Basically, my issues are:
No hitboxes in chest-neck area
- can't access the area around the chest/neck part, might be an issue with the hitbox, since the physgun beam goes straight through the model but can access areas around the neck/chest.
ragdoll has seizure whenever I try to move it (once I unfreeze it)
- once I unfreeze the ragdoll, and pose one part of it, the rest of the ragdoll will start flying around in every direction, like clipping through itself

Also, I have school in a couple days, so I won't really be able to do much on Gmod, including this, so I'm sorry if I don't respond too often.

I've had ragdoll mover since I started posing, but I never touched it though lmao. I've always used physgun/advanced bone tool for all of my posing. I have physgun beams turned off, so it's way easier to pose ragdolls without the beam covering 90% of the screen. I'll just try and get a video or something of the ragdoll having a seizure when I interact with it and send it to you, no need for screen broadcasting/stuff like that.

@Afuea8143

and yeah, there is a "Trial and error" element to using Ragdoll mover, I find myself having trouble selecting the Pelvis bone (Like the front for example) but then I move to a different side(Like the back or the side) of the ragdoll and then it works just fine, and yeah, there are time where I would try to select the hand bone, but it would select the thigh instead, that's usually when I do use the physgun and see if the bone moved outside the geometry somehow, hitting the bone with the physgun[which I know isn't ideal because the rig is invisible] cause the geometry to snap back in place, making you able to select it with the Ragdoll mover.

It sounds like it might be your first time (or in your early stages) of using Ragdoll mover

@Afuea8143

Mm, I think I see (though I find that video's always helpful to show someone model issues [Hotkey F8 in Gmod if memory serves]),

Yeah, the model really was designed with Ragdoll mover or Physgun in mind as opposed to Advanced bone tool, and yes, hitting a model with Physgun after using Ragdoll mover can screw things up (It's happened to me, and not just with this ragdoll, so I always figured it was a Gmod thing).

It does kind of look like it's an issue on your end, but it doesn't mean I won't try to help you get to the bottom of it, if you want to talk directly with me, we can add each other on steam and talk there, maybe even try screen sharing or broadcast (Not sure how much my potato of a rig can handle that, but I'm willing to try)

Nah, I don't know a thing about ragdoll mover or any other ones, since I've always used physgun and advanced bone tool for posing (also effect resizer and normal resizer but those don't count). I couldn't get the hitbox right, and then when I would hit the ragdoll, it'd start flying and and clipping through itself. I only resorted to using the ragdoll mover, because this model is pretty damn good and I didn't want to let it go to waste. So I tried experimenting with it, and I couldn't even hit the ragdoll with it most of the time. When I did, it'd only let me select the left arm and leg. Sorry if this is just an issue on my end, I just really want to use this for some artwork before I have to start virtual school in a couple days. Also, the legs won't bend, when I could actually pose them.

Hm, you got any other posing related addons besides Ragdoll mover?

I should also add that the people who helped with the bones and facial flexes are linked in the description, so if fixing this is outside of my skillset (which it probably is), you might be better off talking to them (I can do the same)

Hmmm, that's not an unknown issue, I've had that problem with other models too, it's why I generally don't use Physgun and Ragdoll mover at the same time, does it happen before or after you use ragdoll mover on the model?

As for the hitboxes, I didn't actually do this model, someone else did, but I can tell them what you told me about that if you like.

Dunno, it seems to have issues whenever I interact with the model with the physgun, like it'll start flying around, and the hit boxes I think are off a bit

@afuea8143 Yikes, what happened? Did he spawn or standpose that way?

http://www.wduwant.com/index_uploads/uploads/e6e2affd9789.jpg

i mean, i was gonna use this for some artwork, but i can't even pose it, or even use ragdoll mover on it

@cptjacksprrl

I know there's some out there who don't like it as much because it's different from the previous Fallouts, but I love that game too

i still love that game

@cptjacksprrl

Heh, good one, enjoy hehe

got someth'in to hide kellog??
