Garrysmod Go-Kart

3D Model

A drivable go-kart vehicle made specifically for the Source game Garrysmod! Available as a Workshop addon, and fully functional! Ingame, it is fully animated and has a colour mask, so it can be tinted to any colour. It also comes with a Bodygroup of a Glider, that will be utilized in an upcoming Kart racing gamemode.

This model was Commissioned for a Gmod gamemode that will be released in the future!

By importing a default gmod character model, and applying the “driving” animation, i was possible to model the vehicle directly to fit the player models, allowing it to work surprisingly well with the default animations. The seating position was modified by tilting it backwards by about 12 degrees, allowing an overall lower profile, a little hack I was very glad to see working! Somewhat unrealistic for a kart to have full suspension, but was needed to fit the Source vehicle animations. And yes, it’s electric!

Animation system uses simple constraints and 44 seperate bones (Including gauges and the root bone)
