This is somewhat of a vent video. I have experienced my installation of windows 10 updating sneakily when I put my PC into sleep mode, resulting in me losing 5 hours of work because I forgot to save :(

Now, Garry’s Mod in Blender you say? Yes of course! Recently I found out that there is a group of people who make it possible to create your favourite gmod videos in the comfort of blender! I am sure to toy around with this more in the near future.

I also included a “making of” section in my main video to fully display all the functions blender offers over Source Filmmaker and Garry’s Mod. ( Yes I know the “Making of” Section is longer than the actual animation, all animators know the pain of how long things can take. )

Here are some of the resources I used to make this possible:

Here are some direct links to the blender addons used also seen in the videos above:
SourceIO tools: https://github.com/REDxEYE/SourceIO
( This also works for Garry’s Mod maps and opening any model from source engine games inside blender easily! )

Massive thanks to Hisanimations for his addons to load the TF2 characters easily in blender including IK support.
