to spin it

im just use my gravity gun

Cool!

we need more of this

@originalname just like half life 2, you use your gravity gun to spin it

Hey, can you explain to me how this works?

Nice.

@mall cop thank you so much you helped alot!

@-Kronii it should be in your dupe menu, it's not an addon.

I feel like im stupid but I for the life of me cant find were the trap is in my menu

@Mall Cop

I tried doing as you said but turning the gif into a JPG breaks it entierly; I think its best you make a guide on the exact process of how you do this; I think were missing a critical step here.

@Father Andrew

I'm not sure why it isn't working for you, when I put the gif into the dupes folder (remember you have to delete the older jpg - which will be called something like 3cb062e1a1a0d105225c60da0ba4edf9) and rename it, it works for me. (Remember, its not exactly called 3cb062e1a1a0d105225c60da0ba4edf9, it'll be some other random series of number.

I'll consider making a guide soon. But I'm a bit busy rn so probably not straight away.

@Mall Cop

better off just make a guide honestly

How are you converting it to JPG and not losing the animation?
is there a step I'm missing?

if i save it as a JPG it breaks.
if I rename it to .jpg it wont work; i get an error and it wont upload

@Mall Cop

Seems you dont need cloud converter; ezgif has one already

@Mall Cop

Thank you.

@Father Andrew It's kind of complicated. But what you have to do is record a video, use ezgif.com to crop the video, then use the resize tool to turn it into a 512x512 mp4 - and then finally putting it into something like CloudConvert.com to turn the mp4 into a gif.

After you've done that, go to Steam / steamapps / common / GarrysMod / garrysmod / dupes . Here, you'll find your dupe thumbnails, find the jpg of your dupe (It'll be called something like 3cb062e1a1a0d105225c60da0ba4edf9.jpg), make sure you copy the random letters in the name of the jpg - delete the jpg and move your gif into the dupes folder. After that just rename the gif to the random letters and turn it into a jpg.

You can now publish the dupe and it'll now have an animated thumbnail.

How do you add the animated thumbnail?

good
