Faceposer not working

[The POSTAL Dude]

I think there's other threads that already complain about this issue, but so far none of them have been resolved.

For some reason recently, only one or two of the faceposer sliders will work for ragdolls. All others just completely don't do anything at all, and it's definitely not because of a poorly-ported ragdoll as this happens with even base L4D/TF2 ragdolls.

I'd appreciate it if someone could give me some ideas as to why this might be happening.

Do the following for a test:
- Close GMod
- Verify the game files
- Start the game
- Load a map
- When loaded, spawn a ragdoll
- Use all sliders in the face poser
If they work, then I think I know what you mean
If they don't work, let me know

It appears to have fixed it? At least, I think it did? Ragdolls that weren't working before are working now. Maybe it had something to do with the map I was playing on since it caused an error with another addon upon loading in and then after I disabled it my issue began happening. I'll update this thread if anything else happens.

It's happening again, loaded up a map today and tried to facepose a ragdoll from a mod. For some reason, none of the sliders work except the very last one, which makes the ragdoll's faces glitch out.

I noticed that for some reason this doesn't seem to happen with TF2/HL2 ragdolls and some of my downloaded addon ragdolls still work. Maybe this problem has to do with bad porting????? I'll keep looking into this.

This is a common error with the source engine and does not have a fix, it also happens to me sometimes.
There is a way to avoid it, try not spawning too many models with too many sliders in the face poser, or too many high detailed models
