Garry’s Mod and Kinect, a recipe for madness


Garry’s Mod, the oddball Source sandbox and bizarre facial expression generator, is receiving Kinect support. In a preview video posted to YouTube, Gmod’s Garry Newman shows… Actually, you’re better off just seeing for yourselves.
Yep.
Garry provided some details as to how it works in the description of the video. “You move your arm and the ragdoll moves its arm. You jump – and it jumps. It’s live, your body is directly controlling the ragdoll.” And you won’t just be performing for your own gratification, as there’s multiplayer support too. “You can join a server and take control of a ragdoll. Your friend can join and take control of one and you can dance together.” You can read more about the development process of the update over at Garry’s blog.
You’re now all imagining Half-Life Full Life Consequences as a mo-capped performance, right? Good, not just me then.
Thanks, Reddit
