Just some newbie posing. 







Any tips for how to make em better are appreciated.

Use coloured in-game lights to add a more realistic lighting, instead of using filters. It will be harder, but look better in the end.

Other than that, they look really good indeed!

Practice posing my man. The real fucker is getting the right height.

My advice for you would be to start adjusting the height of a ragdoll from the chest until you see the knees have a slight bend.


This prevents the back from arching right forward or backward as has happened in some of these pics.



If you're really struggling try downloading the Easy Animation Tool to help you pose. It lets you put ragdolls into animations then back into ragdolls, while keeping the animated pose (which lets you make some alterations to them). I still use it myself quite a lot 'cause it's fucking great.

I fucking agree Oobrie, the tool seems fucking great okay? I fucking love it I tested it and it's fucking cool dood, keep that fucking shit up man. @Oobrie

Get the "Standing Pose Tool" to get the ragdolls into the "T" pose (arms stretched out, head to toe straight) to begin, then use the "Ragdoll Mover" to move each bone of the ragdoll on each of it's Axis's to make accurate adjustments to the ragdoll.

EDIT: Also, what are the models used in the 4th Scene?

I actually have no idea. They're in the HL2RP community called "Nebulous"'s content pack. They are custom made I think.
