Another TF2 Physics Override

This addon overrides the default TF2 physics models with additional colliders, while preserving the default joint constraints. This allows you to still throw around the TF2 characters as you would expect in the game, but still provide options to pose the character to or beyond form.

Speaking of posing, I recommend using the Ragdoll Mover tool to bypass the physics constraints from manual Physics Gun posing. The tool is highly intuitive, and it allows you to pose ragdolls beyond their joint limits.



This addon is incompatible with other TF2 physics overrides. If you do not see any of the features mentioned below, try the following:

• Try removing the conflicting addon (e.g. TF2 Better Phys V2)
  
• Check your GMod file system to see if a file might be overriding the physics (for example, look for models/player/scout.phy, and see if you have the other mercenaries physics files)

If the two above still doesn't work, try moving this addon to the bottom of your load order (in other words, this addon should have a larger number than some addons that replace default TF2 physics).

• Every spine bone (bip_spine_0 to bip_spine_3) has a physical collider,
  
• Collar bones and the neck bone have physical colliders,
  
• This addon preserves, if not approximates, the TF2 default physics aesthetic, with stable* joint constraints

*AFAIK the default TF2 physics also has some instability. The new spine and collar colliders may add some instability.

• Make hexes of the TF2 characters with these additional colliders: some TF2 addons like the TF2 SFM Models addon may miss out on the benefits of this addon.
  
• Make the TF2 characters floppy: other TF2 physics overrides increase the range and degrees of freedom for TF2 characters; this addon aims to maintain the default TF2 physics aesthetic

There is some gray area, such as if adding physics colliders to the toe bones or prp_bones violates the TF2 default physics aesthetic or not. I am open to adding these features to this addon on later updates, as they are not too hard to implement. For now, use Ragdoll Mover to move/rotate these bones around.
