UPDATE:

Improved textures.

There are others who can do a better job.

can you port character models

UPDATE:

Improved textures, models should look nicer now.

Do not post twice.

Add me if you want the smd sources.

If I get the chance I'll have a fiddle.

The effect seen here is only possible with mesh stacking. Like wise the amazing pbr stuff that has been put out for sfm and even gmod is only possible via mesh stacking.

I doubt that the effect seen here can be recreated using only single meshes. If it can be really done using single vmts, please demonstrate, it would help me immensely. On the other hand, simply saying that it can will not get us anywhere.

I don't fancy demonstrating. I'm just saying - you can achieve the same thing much more simply just with .vmts. Source isn't exactly a modern engine so I doubt you're getting much out of your effort with this "mesh stacking" anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The problem is that I used mesh stacking on the models and merged several meshes. If you decompiled them as-is, several meshes would come out with smoothing broken beyond repair. You need the originals.

Also, if you truly can achieve the same shading effect without mesh stacking, please show it to me.

having just taking a look at the models myself I don't see why that'd be necessary? they'd just need to be re-rigged accordingly like any SWEP. there also seems to be a lot of *unnecessary* uses of meshes here where .vmt settings would suffice. I don't see why anyone'd who's about to do a SWEP would need a tutorial for this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Gonzo, it's too long of an issue to put on the description. I basically need to give you a tutorial on mesh stacking.

for say that galaxy you never search on the workshop

That's something ive never seen yet on gmod...no WW2 sweps

what is this issue that must be discussed? you may as well just put it *on* the addon so that mod creators know before diving in.

It was referring to a comment I deleted actually.

Very irrelevant comment.
