Customize player models in Garry's Mod with detailed features like jigglebones and faceposing. Choose from characters like Amatsukaze or Darth Talon.

Customizing your player model in Garry's Mod allows you to personalize your in-game appearance with a wide array of characters from various franchises and original designs. These player models often come with unique features and animations, enhancing your gameplay experience.

Many player model addons offer extensive customization options:

  • Character Variety: You can find player models for characters such as Amatsukaze, Black Gold Saw, Camilla, Choukai, Darth Talon, NCR Ranger, Gordon Ramsay, and various Warhammer 40k Space Marines (Default, Devastator, Assault).
  • Detailed Features: Player models frequently include:
    • First-person view arms
    • Bodygroups for interchangeable parts like hair accessories, skirt armor, or different armor sets
    • Jigglebones for dynamic elements such as hair, breasts, and lekku (hair-like appendages)
    • Faceposing, eyeposing, and fingerposing for expressive characters
    • Accurate hitboxes, making them suitable for gamemodes like Trouble in Terrorist Town (TTT)
    • Colorable elements, such as the visor on the NCR Ranger model
  • NPC and Ragdoll Support: Many player models also come with NPC versions (both friendly and enemy) and ragdoll physics, allowing for more interactive scenarios.
  • Required Content: Some player models may require specific content, such as the wOS ANIMATION EXTENSION BASE for certain animation features, or may include all necessary content within the addon itself.

To ensure your custom player model works correctly, it's often necessary to restart the game after installation. Some addons, like the Black Autumn Playermodel Selector Tools, can assist in managing your player model choices. Additionally, certain weapon addons are designed to fix projectile spawn locations to align correctly with various player models.
