Hi there how did you port your gtao character? Also I assume it was from on pc, know of any way to do it from ps5?

OpenIV is just base models, ninjaripper would get the actual face as is in game.
In the files you'll see models labelled from like head_000 to head_045 or something similar. Each head is a base head, and the game itself will morph heads together to create a new head for your character, none of it is saved to a tangible model other than when you see it in the game

Thanks for the reply! Does OpenIV record your saved character's model and face stuff or does it just hold the generic info for it?

You can use openiv, or the newer codewalker (I havent used it)
Ninjaripper is a faster way to do it though. OpenIV can export files in openformats, which can then be imported into 3ds max or blender if there is a plugin for it. I have no idea about codewalker, but I've heard its better, more supported, and more recently updated
Once its all imported to your modeling program, you can follow any source engine rigging tutorial, but if youre doing it for gmod, search specifically for either Half life 2 or Gmod tutorials

How did you port this character to gmod? Is there a way to get the character models straight from the game files or do I need ninjaripper?

Do you still do this or do you take payment?

@SPACECATGAM3R You're a damn hero if this works. Thank you.

@Coltr1 The files are in
x64v.rpf/models/cdimages/streampeds_mp.rpf and then you do either mp_m_freemode_01 (Male online character) or mp_f_freemode_01 (Female online character)

@SPACECATGAM3R I have the OpenIV program, my trouble right now is locating the right files to port

@Coltr1 Im still looking I asked Super chief If he cant help me and he replyed with this:

Super Chief [author] 29 Dec, 2016 @ 5:49am
@SPACECATGAM3R, You need program called OpenIV, to open gta giles, from there you can open/port .ydd/.ytd files. If you want to open the model in modelling program, you need a custom plugin for it, depends what program you are using.

@SPACECATGAM3R Thanks, thats mostly the the part im having touble with, is locating my character files. If you find a tutorial, or other useful information, could you send that my way?

@Spike But I recomend you to take a break from doing those so you can have fun making these again!

@Coltr1 Yea when you Open OpenIV you locate the GTA Files (From your char) and then you have to port that but we all dont know how because all the ones that know wont sharew the goodies

@Spike Well I that you dont want to make them anymore but I forgot the "for now"

Well, heres a picture of my character if you feel like doing it https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/profiles/76561198027596605/home

I'm super new to this, did you use openIV to download the character models?

@SPACECATGAM3R That isn't true, I do still want to make characters and stuff, but just not as often. Don't really know why you said that

man, because i had a great one i could have requested, mine, i wanted to play as myself. oh, but clealy, what your consumers want doesn't matter, right?

Oh, really?
that's a shame....

Unknown Spike dose not want to make any Chars anymore!

Can you do my model?
ThePlayerUnknown

If you find two models, use the one with the blue hoodie, red pants.

This guy is my brother, here is his link.
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/id/7654314/

i love how 4 thousand or so people downloaded this guys character

@Reck No it wont be so hard if you know what to do!

ooouuu

@Reck Yes I know but you know if it would be more dteailed it would be easyer!

SPACECATGAM3R, here's a quick guide.
Step 1, get GTA 5.
Step 2, get openIV.
Step 3, extract the models & textures.
Step 4, convert the models to an "useable" model in external software.
Step 5, rig the model.
Step 6, port model & texture to the format used by gmod.

no one's going to do a video tutorial, it's a ton of work

So tired of this GTA Online characters addons. I wish someone could make a GTA Online Character Redactor or something to make characters yourself.

i'm going to defend Spike here. he can't do every Online character ever in the world. and if he doesn't do your character, please don't whine and say "but he did that character"

Could you plz make Limes4ever?

Let me make this simple:
People say "Make my Guy PLZ"
You could make a video or a comment explayning how to
Then you can have it in the desc. like "If you ask if I will make your char. "Link here" This explains EXACTLY how to"

@Spike Look a simple No is fine. We dont need it so badly in a game that we play for a little bit of an day. They wont be mad you know you can just tell them how to and you can you that as a "No I wont but if you want do it yourself because Ive explained it here"
Just a tip!

Alright, I'm responding.
I don't know if I will get to your guy's characters because I'm human. At first I enjoyed making these, now it's just a chore. I feel afraid of saying "no" because people will get mad, and say stuff like "but you did his character :(".

Spike can u make mine I sent u messages sorry if I'm sounding greedy or something but please

se parece a nexusHD

Spike, just fucking respond to people for fuck's sake. At least say no, so people stop asking!
