I could see the right way to do stuff because a lot of the time Valve had already done it somewhere else in the code. This was one of the good things about GMod. So I just pretty much copied that code into a simple weapon and it worked. I didn't know how to make rope so I thought back and realized that the Barnacle's tongue was rope.
I had no idea how anything worked, but managed to throw version one together by thinking back into Half-Life 2-to work out where I'd seen the feature before. I was really out of my depth in the Source engine at that point. In this recent interview, Garry describes the humble beginnings of his eponymous mod: But it started out as something much simpler. If Garry's Mod sounds a lot like a full-blown development environment inside a 3D world governed by physics, that's because it is. It has also become a tool for users to create music videos, comics and other forms of Machinima. Newer game modes have inventories and highly advanced capabilities including Item Combining and Stock Markets.Īnother example is "Wood Wars", where teams make vehicles or buildings out of wood, and then attack the other team's creations with weapons made up of anything from gas canisters with thrusters on, to shells launched from makeshift cannons. In a server running the Roleplay modification, you have money and tools which enable you to sell items on the map, or to interact with other players. There are a large number of Lua scripted 3rd party modifications for Garry's mod. It's an incredibly successful mod for the game Half-Life 2 that essentially converts it into a giant sandbox powered by Lua.
Garry's Mod is a fascinating study in guerilla programming.
