Elsajoy’s guide to GMOD Pt 1: Inkling model

Pt 2

Hey everyone! Elsajoy here, and today I’m going to guide you through Splatoon GMODding!

Step 1: get the required addons for this specific guide:

Enhanced Inklings

Splatoon 2- Headgear

Splatoon 2- Clothing

Splatoon 2- Shoes

Easy Bodygroup Tool

Easy Bonemerge Tool

Stand Poser Tool

Face Poser Tool

Finger Poser Tool

Eye Poser Tool

IMPORTANT: In order to do Splatoon GMOD in general, you will need team fortress 2. The addons won’t have the right textures, therefore mes your poster.

Step 2: start up Garry’s Mod, and click start new game.

Simple enough, and you should load into the map after sitting through the load screen.

I have chosen Inkopolis Square as my map of choice for this tutorial.

The gun you will have in your hand when you spawn will be the physics gun. This is what you’ll use for posing. I’ll go over the keys and what they do now:

W- forward

A- left

D- right

S- backwards

F- torch

Q- open menu

C- open sub-menu

Z- undo addon

V- no-clip mode

Space bar- jump

Any of the number keys/ middle click- change weapon

You’ll need to use Q first- this opens the menu to your addons.

Whilst holding Q, scroll down until you see the Enhanced Inklings pack. Select the character you want.

I’ll be using the normal version of the Inkling girl. NOT the alt version (where the girl uses the boy hairstyle).

The inkling, or ragdoll in of GMOD, will spawn in front of you like this.

Left click the inkling with the stand poser tool (scroll on the right hand side of the menu until you find the tool named Stand Poser.) and then left click again where you want it to stand. It will stand still in T-Pose where you clicked.

Find the TF2 paint tool in the menu and choose the colour you want your inkling to be.

I’m going to make Agent 3 in this one, so I’ll be using a green colour. Then get the easy bodygroup tool from the menu, and left click the inkling. Hold C to bring up the Sub-menu and from here you can select the skin tone and underwear. Let’s go for a dark skin tone, shall we? :eyes:

Go to the Splatoon 2- Headgear pack and select the headgear you want. Like I said before, I’ll be doing Agent 3, so I’ll use the hero headset. Headgear can be painted too! Select the colour you want for the headgear.

Then get the Easy Bonemerge Tool and right click the inkling. Left click the headgear and it should go on the inkling just like that.

Go to the Splatoon 2- Clothing pack and select the clothing you want. Again, since I’m doing Agent 3, I’ll use the hero jacket. Use the bodygroup tool on that too. Some may not have any bodygroups, but gear like the hero jacket do, and what I’m doing is removing the squid and light from the back. Then Bonemerge it onto the inkling.

This is optional, but you can add the cape, and Bonemerge it.

Then go to the Splatoon 2- Shoes pack and select the shoes you want. Colour them if wanted and Bonemerge them.

Scroll or press 1 three times and click when not in the menu to select the physics gun again.

I recommend pressing V to go into no-clip mode, allowing you to get closer to the ragdoll.

Left clicking allows you to move the various bones on the ragdoll, whereas right click holds said bone in place.

Finish the posing and boom! You have a posed character!

Then get the face poser tool and select the facial expression you want by holding C in the sub-menu.

Posing the fingers is also an option! You can pose the fingers any way you like by right clicking the hand and opening the sub-menu!

Then get the eye poser and right click the ragdoll. She will look at you.

And now your inkling is finished! Scroll or press 6 and click to view your poster! Left click will save to to your computer.

I hope this guide was useful! Happy GMODding!
