Some advice please

Alright. So, yeah, I finally got Gmod 10 and yeah, it's cool and all, but I never knew how hard it would be to manipulate the ragdolls! Me and my friend can't figure out how to get them to look in the right direction, and how to get them to hold a gun the RIGHT way. Also, how do you make it look like the gun is firing? Theres probably and easy way to explain this, but my friend and I just can't figure it out. How the heck do you get the ragdolls to hold a gun convincingly??? It's been driving us crazy. Please help

Ok, to make them hold guns, get out the "no collide" tool and click on both the objects you dont want to collide (they will go right through each other) which makes it A LOT easier for gun placement...and use the emitter tool to get effects like muzzle flash and blood, mess with the emitter settings to get it to work the way you want it.....once you take out the camera, the "emitter" itself goes away and all you see is the effect, but make sure you do a no collide with eh emitter and the object your putting it up to

Thankyou very very much Wal-Mart. My friend and I appreciate it GREATLY...We were getting extremely frustrated

umm try using the physics gun (blue energy gun) and hold the E key. This puts you into rotation mode. thats the best way to turn heads and guns the right way.

yeah and like wal mart said, no collide will be one of your most useful tools.

actually,without no collide, all gmod poses would look like crap.
