1963 Volkswagen Beetle (+Herbie) Model

Description
This model of everyone's favorite VW was ported from the Source Filmmaker Workshop by me. Credits to the original model go to RobGamings: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/id/RobGamings (ported to Source and made it into Herbie) and dimistic. (made the original Beetle model) Here's the original addon: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=863956795&searchtext= All I did was port it to Gmod and fix some of the textures.

This model has the following functions and features:
Fully posable windshield wipers, doors, hood and trunk, sunroof, wheels, bumpers, antenna, mirrors, eyelids, seats, spare tire, and steering wheel.
Bodygroups to remove sections of the body.
A blank white skin.
OFP 857 license plates
Movie-accurate Herbie skin, made/edited from original by me
Not drivable, but can be made drivable by someone who knows how, and will be if I learn.
Shiny chrome all over, which is, again, something I did, for some reason the original model had no shiny chrome, and matte gray instead where there should have been chrome. I replaced that with the stock Gmod texture env_cubemap_model, which made it shiny/chrome.

You MUST use the Animated Props tool to spawn it as a model, if you spawn it from the addon it is an effect. I have no idea how to convert effects into models, otherwise I would make it spawn as a model by default. The effect version cannot be posed, the model/prop version can.

In order to pose any of the things I showed, you need the Overhauled Bone Tool.

Enjoy!

How can you not know that if spawning things is one of the standard things to do in Gmod? Do you know how to spawn other things?

i don't understand how to spawn him in

I don't know why that would happen.

I mean, you could try using the Forza models... that's what me and some buddies are doing for a GTA V mod

I would too, but it probably won't happen if I never learn how to model. Thanks, accuracy and quality were two things I aimed for.

With what you said before, I'd love to see a new model for the Beetle, as a huge Herbie fan, I find it very unfortunate how there aren't any good Herbie addons for this game, apart from yours, your skins for the beetle you made are fantastic...

Probably, but to be honest this model isn't very accurate compared to say TDM's Beetle model, which I hope to replace this one with at some point. (don't worry, all the posable features would still be there)

Would it be possible to create a that could be used with Wiremod Expression2

Have no idea, at some point I hope to update this addon with a new and MUCH improved model that's a ton more accurate.
