So as you see my Scout having a MvM bot's arm wanna know how to do so? Thin follow the rest of this guide.
Spawn a Normal Ragdoll.
I use Enhanced Texture Models, not required its just I like them better thin the default ones.
Stand them up and remove all the Bodygroups. (Optional)
Scout has the most bodygroups, But its optional.
Use the Submaterial tool; with the Invsible Material.
While using this tool each part of a model has its own parts, The 2 parts I made invisible were, models/player/scout/scout_red and models/player/scout/scout_sfm_fingers. If you want the Blu one just scroll intel it highlights models/player/scout/scout_blue and make sure to keep the head of the model.
Goto addons and find Expanded Gibbed tf2 Characters
It shouldn't be hard to fine.
Spawn the one Gibbed Character you are using.
Most likely you should've spawn the one that you need for the character.
Select what parts of the body is damaged.
Just to show you what each bodygroup looks like.
Use Submaterial + Invisable Material again.
Now with this you need to select models/props_frontline/expandedgiblets/scout_gibs_red.
Use the Easy Bonermerger Tool
Right click you're character thin hover over the gibbed one thin left click.
Spawn the MvM bot for that character
Just make sure to have the Team-color selected first; It looks better with the same color. c:
Use the Inflator Tool
Shrink all the parts of the MvM bot except the ones you need. *Note* (The Scout Bot won't let me remove the dogtags, So your just gonna have to deal with it)
Use Easy Bonemerger Tool again
The same thing when you attached it with the Gibbed Character right click the normal one hover over the MvM bot and left click.
And you're Done
Now add some customization to you're new robotic character you can use normal bone merger. *Note* (I would require you guys to save it before you Bone Mearge stuff to it first; If you mess up you'll have a copy of it to help yourself.)
Examples
Just some little peices I made to show you what it would look like on other classes.
