I have absolutely zero, but I really want to get into it. Any advice on how to start, e.g. any tutorials?

EDIT: Oops, I think this should be moved to the OT discussion.

I think its pretty much just screwing around Laying out stuff and snapping screen caps?

Garry's Mod is so fun!! I've just started playing it with some friends and trying to build flying hovercraft is tons of fun (and super hard). Building machines would take a lot of work but could be done. There are options to bind things together and whatnot, but no I'm not really sure how to do it. A very fun thing is an mod (?) for Garry's Mod called Monster Onslaught V2 in which you build a fort and hit a button and then monsters keep coming faster and faster until your inevitable death. It's a lot of fun to play with friends.

I'd always build battle vehicles. Huge cars with bigass hammers on them, or spinning blades.

I remember logging on one server and this guy made this HUGE vehicle with a hammer that put mine to shame. Mine just used the buggy as a vehicle.. he made this huge truck outta 18wheeler storage containers and this hammer that would flatten my car.

So, can you actually do anything with that hammer? like hit someone on the head with it? And if so, what does it do to them?

It work hurt players.. but you can spawn enemies and crush them. Or battle other people's cars.


I also built a howitzer. Basically had a huge tube made from concrete sewer pipes. Put a bucket inside that had strings of a certain length. The bucket had huge air things attached to it. You'd put something in the bucket, turn on the air... bucket would shoot up the tube and the cords would stop it right at the end of the tube and whatever was inside would be launched.

Does anyone know how to assign an animation to a npc ?

For instance, if I spawn barney in garrys mod, can I assign it a walk animation at all ? Or is this impossible ?
