Garrysmod is the best mod! He works so quickly and adds so much.

 

[TiMz]

lol, garry is fast becoming the king of the HL2 physics mods, better then Jb

 

[Goalie31]

I love the new VGUI menus, they are so clean and professional

 

[jonesey_11]

The sheer fact that any of this is actually POSSIBLE is a huge testament to the work at Valve. Oh, and the work at Gary...'s apartment? I guess..?

 

[lePobz]

Cool, Love this mod

 

[major5013]

very nice updates, will make this mod even more enjoyable to play.

 

[Dumb Dude]

Anyone else having trouble running it? It crashes to the desktop if my settings are on high.

 

[lePobz]

Help me, I cant stop laughing... this facial expression gun rocks!! And randomise mode!! LMFAO my chest hurts

rooofl

 

[[Matt]]

indeed

 

[Iced_Eagle]

LOL

Yea if you guys go through, you gotta give props to VALVe as well as Gary... Gary used VALVe's tech in a creative way, not created it himself

Like you can _really_ see the facial animation system and such, nothing looks unrealistic really (well teeth clipping) , just hilarious

 

[[daniom]]

Here is to I made

:E

 

[Asuka]

LMFAO this guy just cant stop with the ideas. Good job.

 

[Deltron]

little help...

How do I make expessions on the characters? I use the multi-tool gun and it doesn't do anything. Am I doing something wrong? Is it like the blood, where only another user can see it and not the creator?

Right-click to access the menu.

 

[lePobz]

Applying facial expressions via the multi tool doesn't work properly in multiplayer, only single player.

Pulleys Rock!!! Check out the puppet show, lol.

 

[Dinkleberry]

This mod looks a lot of fun indeed. I already saw the valve-whinging-about-porn thread, but I say to hell with it, lets get dooown and do the real electric boogalow.
