if you still wanna tinker around a bit, arc9's Escape from tarkov ported weapons are great, pairs really well with any body cam mods because it uses some space age technology that allows anybody from an outside perspective to see exactly what your view model is doing, including a third person camera attached to your head/body, they call it "Third person inverse kinematics" and it really feels good to play around with

Hey, thanks for using my map in the video, I appreciate it! As an amateur gmod mapper, with gm_construct_2022 being my very first map it warms my heart, seeing something i've put about a month of work into, be recognized. For anyone interested in further developments, i have huge plans for an update, as well as a new map, being fusion between flatgrass, construct and bigcity, however motivation dried up for the past year and it takes some astronomical lengths to optimize these kinda things, something which i've been unable to do properly for this particular map for the 4 months i've worked on it, despite vast usage of anything i could get my hands on in terms of optimization, as some areas just flicker due to the sheer amount of vertices visible, as well as invisible water and broken skybox, despite all leaks fixed and hour long map build times through hammer itself, making things actually gruesome to work with. If anyone has some tips, i appreciate it!
i feel like people forget the entire point of a sandboxwhen they ask "why not just play this other game instead?". having all of these mechanics, aswell as the freedom to create what ever scenario you want with whatever environments, weapons, and enemies that you want is so much fun.
I don't have enough creativity for these sandbox games sometimes. One thing I do really like doing is exploring unique maps from the workshop though. That's usually what I do whenever I play Garry's Mod. I was never big into RP and I usually encounter a lot of jerks on there that think they're so high and mighty like admins.

I love Ratlobber videos. They have this weird Adult Swim, ADHD, Nostalgia swamp vibe to them. Really unlike anything else on the platform now but also oddly familiar in this inexplicable manner.
I completely agree. I think it's the intro and outro shorts, and how they look purposefully dated, with the weird spinning 3D models, old internet-era font usage, and the cartoon drawing boards.

oh i absolutely love those photo scanned environments, particularly in steam vr home, they are gorgeous! i have so many just saved to my home, i love just hanging out in them and looking around. they're so cozy
i bought gmod from a garage sale and the guy gave it to me for free, i booted the game up and hyper-realistic kleiner looked at me and choked me through the screen
I LOVE that you used music from Blade on ps1 in the intro dude, the game was a masterpiece, and the music was 10/10!! fave OST ever for ps1 right there
7:14 I don't know when this was recorded but in there is a weapon base called 'Arc9' made by Arctic. Someone ported most of Tarkov's weapons using Arc9 and it by far is the most 'realistic' weapon mod out there. Ammo jamming / Misfires, hundreds of different attachments, etc.
Tarkov recoil though. irl operators can get 30 shots in like one inch without much issue but in tarkov it's like we're new gun owners who are like "WOAW THIS KICKS"
@@predzoru I found it finally but man I wish they had a specific recoil slider for Tarkov, I'm fine with the recoil on others but Tarkov just doesn't feel right
alot of the mods he uses here are not on the steam workshop you actually have to hunt down quite a few of them although it is weird that he didnt link anything in the description
Would you mind making a workshop collection with all the addons you ended up using and tossing it in the description so we could follow after some of the improvements you made? Great vid!
Never played Gary’s mod despite seeing it around now for years. But I can understand taking something you like and overhauling it and from that perspective it’s probably the better Gary’s mod I’ve seen Thanks for sharing
Even if it is graphically dated by todays standards, compared to most other games at the time, like halo 2 for instance, it really is impressive just how good it looks for 2004, even holds up a bit today
@@-kstyle Half Life 2 today is not the same as Half life 2 in 2004. The source engine has gone through multiple updates since then, including HL2. They were still pretty good for 04 standards, what was most impressive were the physics and the facial animations.
The photogrammetry stuff happens cause usually you’re meant to take pictures of only 1 object at a time like they did in Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, not a whole room
dont watch this when sick, it made my head hurt, but honestly ignoring the headaches the maps, lighting, guns, character models, etc. actually looks beautiful
The reason Gmod realism is so much fun is for the same reason Gmod is fun, it’s customizable. Yeah, I could just get Ready Or Not and play that, or I could make my own tactical shooter and tweak it to my liking. For example, you use the MW weapons in the video, and I often do too. But I often go into the system setting if it in Gmod and change the position of the gun on my screen. And when I don’t use MW weapons I can use CW2 or the Insurgency weapons, which completely change how it plays. And of course there’s all the different maps to choose from. On Ready Or Not I’ve got a majority of the base maps memorized and I know the layout and where people tend to be. Even with it be randomized every time, there only so many places people can be. In Gmod, I can put anyone anywhere, let them roam for awhile, and then have no idea where they are.
I was honestly very confused when i saw the green co-op sign. Like, I didn't know if it was a reference or just a fluke. But now that I think about it, it's quite obviously a reference.
@@rushroll4ever643 yeah, it is an actual grocery store in Sweden. The real name is “COOP” without the “-“ But I guess they put the line in the middle to not get sued for using the real name.
I could've never seen more better Ratlobber video than this. I suggest continuing GMod Realism, (you probably won't,) because I binge watch people installing Realism mods.
Seeing Insertion 2 hit me with powerful nostalgia. I've spent a month with distant relatives in a very similar looking Swedish suburb once. It was the last summer before things went really bad too. I'll have to download that map and walk around...
You sound like one of those people that call a high definition good looking game unplayable because there’s a low quality model in an area you’re not supposed to pay attention to
Gmod realism has it's own charm. It's uniqe because you can make your own stories, operations, machinimas with it. It's still sandbox limited just by your imagination. It's YOUR story. Hell, you can even pair it with wiremod, stop motion tool a few friends and create "War of the servers" size film. Gmod has so much possibilities.
I have to respect every single modder who sat down and spent the time to "clean up" models over the course of more than a decade. Some of them were younger than 18, I bet. They loved Garry's mod enough to put hours of work into figuring out how to clean up every asset from Half Life 2 and Half Life 2 Episode 2. They knew they'd never get paid for it, but they did it. And I respect every hour they put into it for things like this. If you're one of them reading this - good fucking job. You did a thing. And you did a thing that people should respect in the years to come. Edit: Some things might be AI done, but I know there are modders out there who did it personally.
Very good video and very good modding! It's a personal preference but imo there's too much bloom in certain environments in your end-result. Other than that, fantastic work
Why does those women being Asian matter? I didn't quite understand that part, I don't get how downloading those models is sketchy just because the race of the women is Asian.
I am not American, I lived in Australia, yet I feel I can maybe shed some light onto what I think that may be. In the USA I notice often among right wing and republican type areas, a lot of people imply that you are a creep if you like Asian women. I never quite understood it myself, but it appears to be some kind of racism to do with preserving the white race or something, which a lot of the right wing there are obsessed with. These same types of people also really hate it is a black person is with a white person as well, and they have all sorts of rhetoric against that etc.
I don't think he was implying it was creepy because they were asian I think he was just saying that it's creepy in general to install 4 GB of photo scanned woman.

This guy used the songs from Ape Escape 3 at various parts of the video I love it so much. I never thought I would here those songs anywhere else.
As a Swede, it was incredibly cool to see such a realistic Swedish map.
I was honestly very confused when i saw the green co-op sign. Like, I didn't know if it was a reference or just a fluke. But now that I think about it, it's quite obviously a reference.
@@rushroll4ever643 yeah, it is an actual grocery store in Sweden. The real name is “COOP” without the “-“ But I guess they put the line in the middle to not get sued for using the real name.
@@Jhjv1 Yeah, I know.
Did you make a modpack ? I would want to have those assets (I'm still waiting : October 2024)
I could've never seen more better Ratlobber video than this. I suggest continuing GMod Realism, (you probably won't,) because I binge watch people installing Realism mods.
This video feels like schizophrenia moments while on acid
8:17 I appreciate the Ace Combat 3 music
15:23, hey sorry to bother. But do you know what addon you used to have the character use their offhand to flick on the flashlight?
Seeing Insertion 2 hit me with powerful nostalgia. I've spent a month with distant relatives in a very similar looking Swedish suburb once. It was the last summer before things went really bad too. I'll have to download that map and walk around...
Note: if npcs don't work on a certain map, it might be from the lack of ai nodes, insertion2 has ai nodes linked in its description
Had it paused at 3:57 and someone saw my screen and thought it was a photo. Abort mission.
man, this channel is great to watch when crying
Why are you crying
@@zakshei because i am
i wish he made a mod pack
7:37 "most professional feeling weapons" as the guy's index finger is completely jagged up
You sound like one of those people that call a high definition good looking game unplayable because there’s a low quality model in an area you’re not supposed to pay attention to
@@shiftysoffline if you click the time stamp i linked, the fucked up finger is right in your face lmao
Gmod realism has it's own charm. It's uniqe because you can make your own stories, operations, machinimas with it. It's still sandbox limited just by your imagination. It's YOUR story.
Hell, you can even pair it with wiremod, stop motion tool a few friends and create "War of the servers" size film.
Gmod has so much possibilities.
2:36 that one didn't age well
gmod went from having an unique visual identity to looking like an unreal engine asset flip, great video
unreal asset flip with blinding bloom
@@omphya6229 yeah
16:38 Looks like a Gmod 2 add
that aperture reshade, consider it source 2
Also congrats for being the most popular gmod realism video!
Thank you!!! this is practically a list for me of realistic gmod mods which ive been needing.
Wow ratlobber blue-balled us by not releasing a workshop collection of everything.
Damnit
man is basically making a AAA game using the source engine, literally put more effort than arcane studios redfall
not really he just put a whole lot of different mods together.
average gmod experience
Did you know that Titanfall games are made with source engine? Yeah let that sink in.
Most redditor-ass comment I've seen on youtube in a while
He typed stuff on his keyboard and pressed a couple Subscribe buttons.
Can my Windows 7 laptop run this?

ONLY 7 LIKES 💀
a modders slow descent into game design is always a treat to watch
I have to respect every single modder who sat down and spent the time to "clean up" models over the course of more than a decade. Some of them were younger than 18, I bet. They loved Garry's mod enough to put hours of work into figuring out how to clean up every asset from Half Life 2 and Half Life 2 Episode 2. They knew they'd never get paid for it, but they did it. And I respect every hour they put into it for things like this.
If you're one of them reading this - good fucking job. You did a thing. And you did a thing that people should respect in the years to come.
Edit: Some things might be AI done, but I know there are modders out there who did it personally.
We need a mod that makes it so if you die in game, you die in real life.
@ManaCloak exactly
14:24 thought this meant something else at first ☠️
🤨
Very good video and very good modding! It's a personal preference but imo there's too much bloom in certain environments in your end-result. Other than that, fantastic work
honestly he did such a good job at this that half way through the video i kept forgetting i was watching gmod until he said it.
Was that the Ace Combat 03 Opening OST
? Thats crazy
Okay, now I'm gonna male this into a version where you play as an assasin, using beatrun
Now make gmod as unrealistic as possible
He did or am I being wooshed
Why does those women being Asian matter? I didn't quite understand that part, I don't get how downloading those models is sketchy just because the race of the women is Asian.
I am not American, I lived in Australia, yet I feel I can maybe shed some light onto what I think that may be. In the USA I notice often among right wing and republican type areas, a lot of people imply that you are a creep if you like Asian women. I never quite understood it myself, but it appears to be some kind of racism to do with preserving the white race or something, which a lot of the right wing there are obsessed with.
These same types of people also really hate it is a black person is with a white person as well, and they have all sorts of rhetoric against that etc.
I don't think he was implying it was creepy because they were asian I think he was just saying that it's creepy in general to install 4 GB of photo scanned woman.
"Easily the most professional feeling addons"
Meanwhile finger: 7:35
I appreciate the OG Ape Escape track you dropped in there
can you put them all in a collection please?
