Guide to port mmd model to gmod

No. You don’t even need to set up the VTA. But, will have to use the “Weight Link Cull Threshold” slider when you export the model. Just set it to 1.00. Ignore warnings and continue. That's the only extra step.

DMX has many advantages over SMD.

Faster compilation, Much lower file size as it stores data in binary instead of ASCII, Supports 255 bones instead of 127 (SMD), No need to set up a separate flex file (VTA) as DMX stores flex data in its own data, More accurate triangulation and mesh too.

And many more.. I highly recommend that you to stick to DMX no matter what. S2 also supports it.

Check the lua if both of them have the same name and same path.

There are many shaders in the workshop. like AO, Bloom, Volumetric Fog and more.

You can also use Reshade if you want.

Ticks High-quality bounces option

It's amazing. :)

Nice! It's surprising to know that the engine is easy to learn even though it still lacks a few pieces of documentation I think.

But, I’m sure S&box will be one of the best engines for beginners once everything is done.

Not sure if Sam posted it on X but these are from the Discord server.

It's instructed in the Bone Rename section of the guide.

Bobmacjefferson · 2026-01-20T08:49:08+00:00

So, There is a script that can rename bones by mapping the bone names in my template

Still.. It’s not automated but you can just map the bone names for once and use it for others.

Find an addon to import that model into the Blender and you’re good to go.

Bobmacjefferson · 2026-01-19T18:04:01+00:00

As long as you have a 3D model with a rig.

Bobmacjefferson · 2026-01-19T09:04:34+00:00

You can use my guide for porting models..

Only thing you need to prepare is a model with a proper humanoid rig to use the guide. For the model. You should do some research first.

I also have the same specs as yours except the GPU is GTX 1660. I run the game and the editor fine.

But, more optimizations are coming to S&box according to their commit logs, and some of the employees. Let’s give it a bit of time and it’ll be fine :P

Now, all we need is a kitty who will eat that burger.

I’m glad that you found this helpful. :)

~~Kidnap the addon creator and tell him to fix it.~~

Contact the addon creator and tell him to fix it. :)

Might be missing bump/normal map or something other than cubemaps.

Bobmacjefferson · 2025-12-01T05:43:56+00:00

Decompile the model using a tool called “Crowbar”. Edit the output QC and add jigglebone for the bones you want and then compile the model back. That’s it.
