[Garry's Mod] Plarail Advance Addon

Hey there!
Im pretty proud to show off some of the work ive done in the last months. As i mentioned earlier in my introduction im a hobby modeller and programmer and work most of my freetime at making train based addons for Garry's Mod. Currently im working on a Plarail Advanced Addon for Garrys Mod! I modeled every piece myself and put all of my knowledge into the Mesh Physic and Textures. Its still in development but its getting (kind of) close to release. Im very excited myself to be able to announce this so i look forward for any feedback! Currently i have 3 trains modeled but only for developer reasons. If the lua system is fully complete ill add more (at least one Shinkansen! ) Hope there are some people here having Gmod in their Steam library laying around so we can have alot of fun while playing with these ! Here are some screenshots of early and late developement (from early to latest).




































Here is also a very short teaser

I have not heard of this Gmod stuff. Is it mainly for gamers?

Well Gmod / Garry's Mod is a Sandbox game where you can play around with the Physic and Graphic Engine (called Source Engine) from Half Life 2. Its not only for gamers but (as for every software) you need to know how to use it obviously.

This may get me to boot up GMod after a few months...

When I first read this thread I thought it was about creating new train bodies for physical advance trains, something I've got on my list to try now I can print them

As the advance trains are mostly a single size I think this is something that I should be abe to achieve pretty easily once I get one done. I wonder how much interest there would be in Thomas models in Advance size? I know I'd love to have some so I reckon I can't be alone

Anyway I drift a little, regardless its an interesting post and I wait to see where you end up with this

I thought i'd post a screenshot of the newest (wip) Train



The E5 Shinkansen is maybe 60% done but i really look forward to finish this one.

Nice Ron...have you thought about getting into 3D modeling for making 3D printed trains?

I already have the Capsule Plarail ones, but I wouldn't be against seeing the Arlesdale smallies in Plarail Advance form.

Very good question there Super, you can get the 123Design package for free (it's what I use for creating STL files for printing).  If you make the designs Ron I could print them

Well i have no experience in 3D printing. I guess it could work but my System is designed for Garry's Mod not for the real world. I could try but i never thought of 3D printing before because i create my own world in Gmod
