Wow you just make an video with screenshots and some audio that you can steal, no needed to buy expensive softwares this is the best man, thanks for showing me how to make Garry's mod videos
Great tutorial i never thought animating can be that easy thanks i also... were confused multiple times why i hear music in gmod and relaunched the game a few times oops

Hello, I could make an in depth tutorial about stop motion helper. I however did made a tutorial on how to get particles working in gmod, which you can also use as special effects for animations or artwork/screenshots. Link to the video is here, or you can look it up on my channel: th-cam.com/video/DODtsfTgAQ0/w-d-xo.html
These are from Team Fortress 2 themselves. You can follow this guide to search and find the hats you wish to use: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=395367659 If you want to equip them on a character you need to use the bone merger tool which is linked here: steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=104601200 If you have any issues please let me know I can help out :)
Heyoo, yes you could record instead of screenshoting it. It probably makes the process in the editing quicker too and maybe it won't be as laggy as mine. If you encounter any problems feel free to ask me for help :)
@@PizzaPieAnimations Okay, im starter in this. Im gonna try record it, and if you want send it to you. You can write the problems, what i need to learn ... . If you want reply to this :). Have a nice day.
Hello, watch the part at 6:26 you want to make sure to choose File Format: FFmpeg Video and at 6:33 change Container to: MPEG-4. This should hopefully render your video in a .mp4 format. In case you didn't know, I made a updated tutorial. You can check it out here: th-cam.com/video/EcipYWjbcoQ/w-d-xo.html
The biggest advantage for blender's video editing is that its free and very easy to install through steam. Other video editors like "Vegas Pro", "Adobe Premiere Pro", "Vegas Movie Studio" and "Movavi Video Editor Plus" costs money. Blender's video editing works a bit different than Vegas Pro's video editing but Blender is still capable of doing a great job for editing video's. It is up to you which video editor you choose. I choose blender for this video because its the easiest to get currently.
hey man i haven't figured out one thing.and that is how to make someone shoot a gun,lets say i want a spy to shoot a gun so i pose him and all and then..idk how to hide the muzzle or shooting effect before the spy start shooting the gun.
Hello, what you could try to do is in this tutorial, when taking screenshots: put a muzzle flash on the gun when spy shoots. For example: You have your 2 poses and at the part when spy shoots give the gun a muzzle flash. Once screenshot is done get rid of the muzzle flash and continue making screenshots. If you have any more issues please let me know :)
@@PizzaPieAnimations Well im working with smh 'stop motion helper' without taking screenshots because i think its easier like that.and because i wont have so many pictures in my pc.
Heyo, be sure you install stop motion helper before you start gmod. Install SMH then launch gmod and it should work. If you still have any problems let me know

@@CooleGuy456 Ja ik ben een nederlander :)
@@PizzaPieAnimations nice ik zag het aan de geavanceerde opties
this actually helped me make my first animation i thought gmod was harder than sfm but i made an animation with gmod way faster
Well, this definitely explains why the clouds in the sky always moved whenever a character is animated.
you can use a walker dupe to make ragdolls walk,there is lots of tutorials on it if you want to mix screenshot animating and recording together.
You are the most friendliest GMod Animator I’ve ever seen, have a fantastic life.

Glad people are still making these tutorials on how to make animations/machinimas in Gmod
Good to know that you don’t need to download anything to extract sounds from l4d2
Its very easy to get sounds this way. Hope this tutorial helped :)
you can also bind a key to +smh_playback and use OBS to record movement
You are a good tutorial maker, god will always be with you

Funny how I use F2 to start and F3 to stop recording on OBS lmfao
You should record it using obs studio,
Not using the camera tool, but still great tutorial
That's the way I currently animate my animations, but not everyone has obs studio.
you dont need to screen shot use a keyblind for smh_playback and screen record it!
since when can you edit in blender
Hi, can u pls send the link of the faceposer addon that u use?
Face poser is a tool within gmod itself. Open the spawnmenu with Q look for posing to the right of the spawnmenu then click on face poser.

@@PizzaPieAnimations thanks
Why do you need to make it like a stop motion? The whole point of SMH is so you don’t have to do it like this.
There’s a bind to play the animation.
In order to record the animation you will need a recording program like OBS, FRAPS or ShadowPlay. I would have to teach them how to setup OBS for gmod.
I would still highly recommend recording it instead of doing screenshots.
