Description
Because someone asked about my apparent skill in posing ponies. It's not skill, it's knowledge... and maybe some skill.Big file is big.

Tutorial belongs to me, but I allow you to use it to help for your own pictures

Wow I never even knew about the physics timescale, thanks for the tip!

I'm really beginning to hate GMod 13. To add to my reasons, for some inexplicable reason, Garry decided it would be a good idea to unnecessarily move things around so many people can't find them any more. One of those things is the Statue Tool. From the change log:
•Moved statue tool to properties menu
As it turns out, to find the Properties Menu (and the missing tools), you have to hold down "C", right-click on a ragdoll, and choose the tool you want. A completely pointless change that wasn't fully explained.
You may want to redo this for GMod 13, as the menus shown are now inaccurate. Unfortunate, as this tutorial is extremely helpful in posing these fantastic (and spaztastic) models.

Huh. Always wondered how you do that.

I use this to get them level with the ground: [link]
Of course, one has to go the route of un freezing things in order to change the pose, but I'm stubbornly patient like that.

Dude, you seriously have no idea how much this helps. Posing ponies just got a whole lot easier thanks to your tutorials.

Why won't she be moved by the physgun at phystimescale 0?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
At 0 phystimescale, nothing moves (unless their movement isn't governed by physics, such as doors). That includes ragdolls, props, effects and certain projectiles (like grenades).

When i pick my pony and let it go and can't float like yours! Help?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'll go over the process.
Step 1: Turn timescale to 0.
Step 2: Spawn pony.
Step 3: Use statue toolgun on pony.
Step 4: Turn timescale to 1.
Step 5: Pick up pony with physgun and pull out of ground, rotating to the direction you want it to face.

Well just wondering do you use a laptop? Because I am getting garry's mod on my laptop.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I use a normal PC, if anything because my laptop has no internet access... yet...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh I see... Well I need tutorial of garry's mod for laptops I do NOT have a numpad with my laptop but my mom does
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm not sure how to help you with that... perhaps getting a plug-in keyboard so you have access to the numpad?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah that can probably work.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
No worries. I will make a second tutorial on pony posing later, as an extra bit of advice.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Yeah, but.. what if you un-statulize a pony model?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Unless you physgun freeze the parts you don't wish to move, then you've got the floppyness back.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you turn it down before you spawn them.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'll remember that for if ever I get a computer again...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But then, after the statue tool, if you want to REALLY pose her, like move limbs and stuff, then you would have to unfreeze her, and then we are right back where we started, right?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, that's another matter. I'll do a tutorial on that later, but I can say this: using the physgun, freeze every part you don't want to move for the image, and then un-statue.

I always just pose them normally, because I hardly ever have ponies just standing plainly.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
that makes everything a lot easier then the way i do it which is taking the time to pose every fing piece adn it never turns out as great in my opinion. (hasn't posted any do to suckyness)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i mean this is going to make it easy for an idea me and my brother were planning on trying. so i thank you for this it'll make it easier on us.

Don't forget to type in these commands:
physgun_timetoarrive 0
physgun_timetoarriveragdolls 0
It will make the physgun stronger against ragdoll physics.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
what do they do?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Make the Physgun stronger against physics so the beam doesn't bend.

i see :3 thanks ^^

I didn't know about those, thanks

If you've played GMod 9 then it will basically give you stats similar to that physgun.

I haven't played Gmod 9, only the Steam variety.
