@Phobias
OH I DIDN'T NOTICE THAT, thanks for pointing it out

@Horridussss
Yeah but the Pyro lifting his mask where the tenticles are coming from should also give 'among us' vibes,

That husky with the tentacle in the mouth is giving me The Thing vibes.

@Phobias ok did some testing restarting SFM did nothing, however adding my own $color command did. Guess something in the VMT files needs looked at.

@Phobias: Hey sorry to bother but I'm trying to recolor the frozen and ghost skins but the in-built colortinit_base option isn't working for some reason even though it works on the other ones that have it. Not sure why? If you have any ideas let me know. I'll try closing and launching SFM to see if that fixes it. Usually that does it when $color doesn't work initially.

@ajhammack9007
Happy to help

Ok thanks for answering me so quickly Phobias. I really appreciate it. Like I said I'd have no idea what to replace to do what I wanted. I'll save this in a document for when I want to change it.

@ajhammack9007
Well that's the thing I've delved into using white texture to make the colour more customisation as I normally would try but from what I've come to fine it won't allow a change of colour if it's a pulsation effect only plain glow. So if you want to make it more customisation it would involve making the texture white and then removing the command that makes it pulsate.

@ajhammack9007
If you use notepad++ and go into the nuclear pulsation vmt file and replace the section:

---

"Proxies"
{
"spy_invis"
{
}
"Sine"
{
resultVar $selfillumtint
sineperiod 0.75
sinemin 15
sinemax 50
}
}
}

---

Replace with:

"Proxies"
{
"spy_invis"
{
}
}
}

---

Save it and either reload materials in SFM or reboot SFM.

@ajhammack9007
If you want to alter the colour of the glow assuming you made the nuclear texture white.
Add:

---

"$selfillumtint" "[0 0 0]"

---

The 3 separate numbers are the 3 light primary colours in order of: Red, Green, Blue.
adding a value of 1 will just make the texture bright but 2 and over will intensify the actual glow. it'll take some trial and error to get the result's your're looking for.

Again remember to save it and either reload materials in SFM or reboot SFM.

If for some reason something messes up I'll try help advise you correct it but I won't hold my breath as I'm still trying to fix the issue some people have on their end with any of my glowing or blur texture effects.

Hey Phobias I had a question, is there a way I can recolor the nuclear skin? I ask as I'm not very well versed in VMT files yet so wanted to do it properly. Basically wanted to know if I could make it a basic white color and then change that color while in SFM to whatever I wanted or needed. Thanks for the models and any help.

Kagune-type shenanigans about to happen!

nice

@Phobias
oh sorry but if you want you could watch some youtube videos of how to port sfm objects to gmod

@juaco.ge.zx
First off I never said I would port it to gmod.
Secondly I've stated in the past that I don't know how to port to gmod nor do I care to work out how to. I do however give permission for anyone to port it themselves should you put it on the workshop don't forget to credit me that's all.

when will you port this to gmod?

Take all the time you need.

@Spore Cannon
Nah I'll update it in the workshop even adding an extra display pic to point it out. This is when I get around to it.

Cool! Will you update the workshop page, or will be a secret between us? ;)

@Spore Cannon
It's cool adding a new skin ain't super complex compared to making a model, uv mapping and weight painting it. I can just use one of the existing texture files, make a few adjustments and update the models on the workshop no biggie.

Sure. Sorry to impose, it just seemed like something was missing.

@Spore Cannon
You know what I very well can. Could add an extra skin that's half as shiny with a fleshy sort of bumpmap. That sound good?

Very cool, but is it possible to make a non-shiny, more fleshy appearance?

@MACMAN2003
Well that is what the thumbnail is suppose to imply that and among us.

this is just like john carpenters the thing

Thank you, I've been looking for good Tendril models for Carnage

Mimi sentry boutta be wild

JOKER NOOOOOOO

Batman, I -I

BATMAN, THERE IS NO LAWS AGAINST THE POKEMON, BATMAN!
I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT WITH IT!

You know what I'm gonna do to that thing.

what a great model, i hope nothing bad comes of it.

God please no

this will either be used with tentacled monsters or for devious stuff.

The Thing

im gonna see some devious stuff with this

@Colonel Moonpool
I have actually considered doing something like sprite models. Say an animated panel that makes it look like the background is on the go like I guess a background scrolling.

Only thing that might be hard to make is animated fog to a degree, like if it were animated it can only be an idle animation can't be a starting/ending of a emission as I've not really seen if animated texture can be controlled as to when they start their animation.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That being said you maybe able to control it making it look like it starts/ends emission by combining growing/shrinking of the panel while also alpha fading the texture in/out so yeah that can work. I'd do more than smoke obviously like fire, water possibly electric.

I also have some useful overlays to finish working on.

U ever gonna happen to do colorable / resizeable sprites and fake fog gradient models? that would be super helpful for backgrounds for scenebuilding

Well, good luck, lad!^^

@Venom_Spy
Well yeah I'm always trying to guess what people could find useful even for very few are interested. I seem to bring out models no one knew they needed so much.

Not joking but I got hundreds of models somewhat finished that I'm fixing up to put out eventually. But still got lots more to make.

Got one medigun model ready to go out for months near on a year but I got to finish up 9 other models and particles to go with it. Motivation is maddening.

Man, I just LOVE your works! You're doing so, bloody, USEFUL models!

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

rain world

JenniferFM knows whats up

oh no

perfect for my tentaspy poster!! thank you

Hope this model is used something good then.... Something else

I have been informed that flipping burgers with tendrils coming out from your chest is unhygienic

Can't wait making a Cleavage of an Anime girl to have the Extra Long Tendrils coming out, which she will use to flip burgers while working on the French fries on a suspiciously long A&W Restaurant.

awesome, will deffo use for some future horror themed art or posters, thank you.

Very cool, can use these to imitate angel wings from Diablo
