    I got bored of Gmod rather quickly whenever it was that I tried it.

    So did I, but my problem was more to do with the fact that it was just too complicated for me. If it's not intuitive enough, I'm usually not patient enough.

    I might give it another go though, this time with some sort of guide.

    Id get it once it has been out for a while just to play all the games made within the, uh, game <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

    The wide range of games in 9 was fun enough, can't wait to see what they do in 10.

    It's a sandbox mod. You get an altered gravity gun that lets you freeze things in midair, and you can spawn any model, object or NPC in the game. Furthermore, you can weld, rope or connect all those objects together with regular welds, hinges, elastics, wheels and much more. Add some thrusters onto it that you can control by the numkeypad and you have yourself a homemade racing kar. Or robot. Or helicopter. Whatever you want.

    It's like legos in HL2 style.

    Almost more importantly though, lua support for custom gametypes.

    Hi guys!

    I actually play GMOD9 a LOT. Some features:

    LUA scripting for gamemodes and weapons
    Welder and EZ-weld (EZ makes the two objects jump together wherever you weld them; welder does not)
    Axis welds
    Ballsockets and EZ-ballsockets (EZ jumps objects together; normal doesn't. Same with all other EZ/normal)
    Rope
    Elastic rope
    Nocollide (objects that are nocollided to each other will not interact with physics)
    Ragdoll face poser
    Ragdoll eye direction poser (either right click to have the eyes look at your current position or left click a point to have that ragdoll look in that direction)
    NPC spawn (as mentioned above)
    Spawn any model and use it as a phys object
    Hundreds of mods (get too many and you can't play singleplayer XP)
    Thrusters! (Attach to something with power set to 30,000 and see what happens)
    Phys properties (make something ice on ice and it'll slide forever; make something float and you can even float a cargo container)

    New in Gmod 10:
    HYDRAULICS! (like thrusters combined with ropes and powered up)
    An even easier system for welding (with the spawn menu up, use your mouse pointer to select an object then click where you want it welded as long as it's within your current sight range)
    STEAM SUPPORTED AND DISTRIBUTED!

    I am so getting this...

    EDIT:
    THE GREATEST CONTRAPTION EVER BUILT IN GARRY'S MOD 9!

    What did he sell out to? AFAIK he just wanted to make cash. Selling out is when you give up your goals. He might need more money to further expand upon his goals.

    But I don't know enough about it so I don't know V <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" /> V

    To be honest why not make a quick buck off of it if you have the market. Although it is probably the most pointless game/modification you can buy considering it's a gimmick and not really a full modification, hence the really cheap price in which Garry will get around $2 per unit sold.

    You do know Valve gave him the full source code in exchange for half the profit of every unit sold.

    What's the difference between full source code and... not full source code that the SDK has?

    A big difference. The full source code costs thousands of dollars to license (although part of that is just the ability to distribute the thing).

    SDK source includes no engine code. None of the "inner workings" of the game are revealed, just the stuff on the outside that defines game entities and rules. All an SDK user gets is a few callbacks to use <i>some</i> of the engine functionality.

    For example, the quality of the portal gun would be difficult, if not impossible to reproduce without the engine code. You can make a copy of it, but it would be jerky, and you probably wouldn't be able to get it to work just right.

    Gmod is an outstanding modification. By no means is it 'partial' or 'incomplete'

    Garry Newman has essentially opened up game/object/level editing and development to the thousands of creative users who aren't nearly as skilled in source-code programming or level design as others.

    Gmod is an outlet for creative expression, and a very powerful (but mostly fun) development tool.


    Gmod 10 adds a lot more functionality - it's much more streamlined, adds many new features, and most importantly, is entirely re-written in LUA making it highly customizable and distributable. You can make your own mod, in-game, and distribute it almost instantly to anyone who connects to your server (or any server running the mod script) - just check out the video of a 'missile command' mod made with GMOD on youtube. And don't worry, LUA file downloads are automated and highly limited so you don't get spammed by potential security threats unless you're sure about it.

    As far as pricing... This guy has put a ridiculous amount of hours into creating the mod. It's a service rendered to those in the market to purchase. I'm sure the money he's making wouldnt even come close to minimum wage for the amount of man hours he's put into the work. And if it does, good for him! Capitalism wins, and so the consumers do too.

    AND, if that wasn't enough, the GMOD 9 version is still available, fully functional (and nearly as fun), for FREE.

    Sellout? My ######...

    If you don't want to play a game, don't buy it. Simple as that.

    People want 10 because it's a lot better than 9 and offers you new features on an unprecedented level. If you don't want to use them or don't want to pay $10, don't play GMOD 10. You're under no obligation to pay for a game you don't want to play. So why ask?

    He's asking for convincing? If the previous version is fully functional, does 10 really provide that big a boost over 9 that it becomes worth it? (Note: never used Garry's mod, just speculating).
