• Made balloons use a shiny material
• Fixed black FATCAN being offset from the object you attach it to
• Made tincan thrusters solid so you can remove them individually

• Now saves static/prop camera properly
• Fixed spawning in CS maps
• Moved manhack spawner to the multigun
• Restored original pistol
• Moved render target camera positioner to multigun
• Restored original 357
• Updated map (Terrain doesn't look like Barry Manilow's face anymore)
• Fixed problems caused by latest steam update (My fault - not theirs)

w00000000000000t, we've claimed back the pistols! a victory of getting some of the real guns!

installing now, i wanna try this texture thing. Painting people has gotta be fun.

Very nice indeed

TBH I'm probably the only person in the world who only goes "neat" and doesn't bother to download... Those sorts of mods just lost their appeal to me... I just need some good new gameplay :\

But I can say that Garry is making fantastic strides, awesome looking material switcher!

Glass, water, jelly don't work for me

Do you have a DX 9 video card?

Do you have a DX 9 video card?

Affirmative, I can see normal water fine, it comes up with the purple and black check-board when I use the material selector on anything for glass/water/jelly

how did it?

I just noticed now, he made a CS:S version of GarrysMod, so you can play in CS:S maps. There's also some CS:S props in the spawn menu.

Hmmm. Have you tried validating? The water and jelly were taken from the CSS Stress test, so it might be that you need to validate CS? I dunno.

you might need to update or roll back your drivers. im not sure what kind of video card you have but thats almost definately the problem. this happened the first time I ran HL2 when it came out and updating drivers solved my problem.

Also, this addition to Garry Mod looks great and im assuming since its version 7a, that he will go all the way to v8 before he "retires". We can only hope this is the case

when is he gonna have special weapons made for all the new features? That would really complete it I think, could have some neat looking things used for making all this stuff.

 

[Asuka]

Wow this guy just keeps adding to his mod.

Yea, original weapon models for all the different modes would give it a much more complete and professional feel. Plus, Im sure theres loads willing to make some kickass models.
