The Guard Dog SFM

Agile, intelligent, and lethal - all apt descriptions for the Guard Dog! Specifically bred to fight on the battlefield, this boy has all the bark and bite. In fact, Mann Co has told us he contains almost 50% more bite and 250% more bark!

With a pair of deadly fire devices and ready to attack any enemy on the spot, they also provide support to their teammates, handing them ammunition and first aid kits all over the field with a special mechanical lifting device.


- Compatibility with SFM/GMOD
- Viseme/Emotions/Phonemes for SFM sessions.
- Imitated Guard Dog propotions / face.
- HWM (First dog HWM?)
- Team colors and über textures
- Sequences for walk/run animation.
- Weapon bones (Easier to use for SFM users)
for Garry's Mod users, use Ragdoll Mover
- Shirt bodygroup
- Weapon bodygroups: The Hater, The Hanger, The Helper
- Flexible ragdoll version for Garry's Mod users.


Hey, It's been a while.
While I'm busy with my university studies I barely had any time to focus on more model releases (oh my!), in the current situation of Team Fortress 2 It might not have been a surprise at all to see the further decline of content creation.

I decided to look back onto the old days when TF2 was rising and people created amazing content, like the Guard Dog fan-made update[guarddog.50webs.com], remember it?

The Guard Dog was one of the earliest examples of great community work, a.k.a class update "ideas" for Team Fortress 2 brought by Pyanodon[guarddog.50webs.com]. I'd say due to technical reasons (e.g impletenting animations such as running backwards for quadruped-based character model) and other gameplay balance reasons It would have been a very difficult task to overtake and implement such thing into the game. But that doesn't mean the idea/model couldn't be used.

I've spent days/weeks creating my own version of the 3D model, and I'm happy with the overall results. Thank you Pyanodon[guarddog.50webs.com] for the amount of effort and time it took to create the webpage and the Guard Dog model, I'm really hoping you don't mind to have an imitation of the model released for our Film creators and artists. If you read this, please contact me ( maxxywarrior@gmail.com ), I can add you as a contributor to the workshop release pages! Lastly, I also want to thank all the contributors for helping me with the model release, most notably Anomidae and Magnus for creating an amazing trailer, and Cryme Tyme and VaultScout for a visual guideline/concept art, and lastly Sync for model testing + a promotion image! Enjoy the model release and good luck with your projects.

P.S Valve, please give us a statement about the Saxxy Awards/Source Filmmaker, nobody knows if we should work on our films or not.

edit: Pyanodon is here! :D I'm very grateful for being contacted, now invited to the contributors! All credit goes to him for the original Guard Dog website![guarddog.50webs.com]

- Download the legacy addon from here.[dl.dropboxusercontent.com] and install it to your game folder.
- It's not accurate because a game model has to deform slightly differently in order to compensate for limitations / minimalism.
- I tried to contact the creator and no such luck, rumours also say that the files of the model are lost due to HDD failure.
- Yes. However there is no approximate release date for any of the potential models.
- I intentionally made the default rig "TF2" biped rig work on it, hence why the limbs are bent and such. I'm honestly too bad for python to make a script. If anyone can create an IK script, please let me know. I will feature your addon in this page. :)
