Gmod Engine Types.

[zigora3]

slappers sound like like v style engines

small bore V engines such as most V6's are set at a 60 degree angle, short throw, this allows them to reach higher RPM's

Large bore engines tend to be set at a 90 degree angle to achieve more power, long throw

[EATSxBABIES]

just a thought but i found a way to fix the advance dupping issues with the more advanced piston engine. you were right, it was about the 2nd axis. just replace it with a ball socket, its locked on the y/z axis buy the actual axis and the x axis is left free with the ballsocket. you still get control and aid to the original axis but no advance dupping issues!

[SirJackpody]

That was pretty awesome. Nice to see a lot of good GMod engines at the same place!

[supergsx]

I hate the expression chips. Still only use multiple chips. It's fun.

[SomeNightElf]

@BasicEvil18 Yes, we wouldn't have a country full of fat people who sit on their asses all day.

[Waluigiftw]

hi, well, i downloaded your save and stuff and its great, i just have one question, what tool did you use to make all those engines anti-gravity? its cool how you can make there weight like 50000 and they don't affect the vehicle that they're on. And if you do have the download link, please not garrysmod(dot)org i gots banned :(

Sooo something like multiupload(dot)com would be great, thx in advance.

[13igAdam2040]

@Waluigiftw On a 3 year old video? Pull the other one, it gots bells on it.

[GforcePilotAustralia]

@Waluigiftw it's called physical prop, don't ask him stupid questions you really shouldnt be looking into engines if you don't know the main tools :/



[Waluigiftw]

@GforcePilotAustralia ssssooorrryyyy but 5 months ago i was still only building tub cars and actually, i watched just about every gmod video of BigAdams, and since then i haven't really done anything except improve design.

[robertsloze]

where to put it????????????

[adliikhwan280]

@robertsloze in the recycle bin

[WeasleFireable]

@SuperRegisteredUser I'm offended, I'm British.

[seelder]

how did u get the forcer tool ive been looking for it! please help

[MrScue]

How do i implement these engines into a car or train or something?

[E2controlledPlayer]

Video is quite old but you could use ranger without default to zero then connect output to delta gate and check if delta is smaller than 0, this mean that piston goes towards axle.

[JakkHack]

i prefer to use rangers and measure the distance from the wall to the piston and use comparison chips to decide when the thruster fires

[adliikhwan280]

great video. i dont understand why 3 people dislikes it

[Randomshit1353]

k 1. where can i get your short throw slapper it would be good for a lot of my projects

2. can u come on a server wit me (look in the lists for grazzhoppers server)

or my steam name (flashbang555)

[Xtclilium]

@Randomshit1353 lol flash. ur reqruiting? (kez <,<)

[lastxp]

There are other designs but those are the main ones

[PL1putnamehere]

Unless anyone else can prove it

[LightRP]

The 3 who disliked got blown up by a spazzing engine.

[956137142]

ould you upload the sve to medeafire?

[dumbass9319]

can ya make tutorial how to make that 3th engin

[TheFunky333]

cool gun

[DePcHaRgE112]

on your truster engine hogo u get it to go up and then down mine onnly go up :p

[Robmacracing]

u remind me of svengalie...

[wheelmanv]

the ol what a ma ding dong

[Randomshit1353]

build REALISTIC real world internal combustion engines

[Wep0n]

@Randomshit1353 you sir, fail. You CANT build such engines for various reasons: The explosions by the explosives (obvious) would just shoot out everything and break it.

[Randomshit1353]

@Wep0n i never said use explosives i said make a piston engine

[Wep0n]

@Randomshit1353 erm well, youre welcome to try. You get a cookie if you sucseed <_<

[grimmripper1]

wat chip setup did you use on the first motor

[napalmstrike2007]

Even if I use the offset force on forcers, they try to push the wheel forward(and the motors flies into space while spinning). It wasn't like that before the update, but they now suck. What shall I do to make them work? should I play around with the weight or something?

[CalmDraven]

hahahahahhahaXD dude i love your accent it so awesome XD awesome video dude

[AnonymousCheif]

Hey could you possibly make a tutorial for all this? I know you made a save, but how about a tutorial?

[cammanderWho]

im trying to make a engine that can be shot and disbaled any idea how?

[themightydaw]

nice i wanna now how to make engines with chips insted of E2 cuz i dunno how to use that but i can use the others things but not nowing when

[Oatinator]

That's very cool, however I fail to see the point. Why not just use the motor tool? Trying to make it more realistic or something?

[deliveriesinrear]

Forcer motors, never thought of it, well, I use it for those downhill maps where my friends want to go up hill with custom engines. Works great.

[dvdvideo1234]

I use rangers works really fine

[13igAdam2040]

@fordtruckrule Good for you.

[SkatingRocker101]

@13igAdam2040 hey dude i know this is a stupid question but what folder do i put the rapidshare file into im kind of a noob on gmod so yeah

[GayBoyRunning]

@fordtruckrule Oi you fukwit dont say the F word..The guys is by the sounf of him is clearly Brittish

[TheLamas408]

@fordtruckrule Fuck you fordthetruckrule why you got to be a fucken troll. Just watch the damn video and dont fucken complain. I think the accent is pretty cool. People these days...

[AdmiNLocK]

how do i control the speed or throttle.

[SuperRegisteredUser]

I am Swedish. I was just kidding about the mo ooe.

[SuperRegisteredUser]

what the hell is a "mo ooe"? it's called "motor", filthy Brits.

[13igAdam2040]

@SuperRegisteredUser Norfolk drawl don't help.

[fatpickel]

@13igAdam2040 yeah i got gmod of steam and it dosent come with wire mod or the engines and stuff it only has simple stuff like thrusters and stuff can u help me

[super6plx]

@SuperRegisteredUser

what? lol?

what IS a mo ooe? you tell me lol! I actually have no idea what you're talking about

I'm assuming just for now you're american as I think that's the most likely possibility as I don't think aussie and british accents are far off and your english is reasonable. so in an american accent "mo ooe" would be "mow oo-ee"

what the fuck is mow oo ee?

please, you tell me LOL

(btw I'm australian not british)

[iwanabeawarcraftGM]

@SuperRegisteredUser You fail.

[BasicEvil18]

@SuperRegisteredUser You know, if it wern't for the british, we wouldn't have America. Think about that.

[dvdprui]

try dualgyro. That's my default for any timing; plus dualgyro works well because you can adjust the power to the piston position

I have a serious question: Ive produed some engines, but I'm right now looking to make a "universal engine" I'm working on a boxer engine w/ a one-part cast block, under 30 props, two cylinder, two stroke, with rev limiting, to power heavy trucks, tanks, and planes. Any ideas? I figured I'd ask you, you're better at this than I am (thoguh mine are more portable)

[h0troddude]

you can use muscles instead of thrusters on the zeos motor.

[sierrxhadlin]

I think the next thing gmod needs is pneumatic and hydraulic physics, that is water or air pressure that can be contained within a cylinder or entity.

[MachineFight]

@sierrxhadlin gmod hydraulics already exist

[madnesscombat5]

hes talking about fluid physics, like air pressure, heat, and compression. not just the hydrolic tool.

[smidge146]

I made an up and down engine which used a ranger to make the thrusters fire.

I attached this engine to a train and engaged the clutch and it did nothing, the engine stopped and the train didn't move at all, I had about 10000 units of thrust in the engine. what did I do wrong?

[sierrxhadlin]

@smidge146 try gearing the engine down, it may not have had enough torque available.

[dvdprui]

@sierrxhadlin I use throttle limiting. You run too fast and it cuts the power; allows a wider power band, so use can use them on heavy shit. This way if your object is light, it produces less power. With dualgyro (one upright on block, one on crank, so you turn the block itcalculates the diff between the two) it works well.

Also try raising the weight of the thruster.

[2346]

what about the rotary engine

[Dth091]

Rotary engines would be impractical and extremely difficult to correctly reproduce in gmod.

[2346]

yeah the physics in the game make it impossible but it would be cool if it was possible the only thing i was able to make was the rotary housing

[Dth091]

In theory, you could make some good props for a rotary, and use forcers if you want.

[maxiconrad]

how about V engines?

[WinstonBroderick]

That's just a slider engine with the pistons opposed at 45 degrees (in the case of a V8) which he covered in this video.

[Symbiote93Return]

toast and cat engine

[1stHALO]

lol u forgot that crappy engine u run with the gravity gun

but nice!

n how do u attach them to axis wheels so that when the engine runs, the wheels run

[13igAdam2040]

Adv.Ballsocket. Set everything that's EVERYTHING to 0 and tick free movement.

Click crank, click wheel, job done.

[allukoira]

only thing is that i've never had them to work (I mean expressions)

[13igAdam2040]

...what?

[Hotgreensoldier]

@13igAdam2040

E2 i think, expression2

[landon9560]

@13igAdam2040 i have found out the forcer engines are SHIT it turning wheels for cars (made two of them one for each wheel)

[landon9560]

@13igAdam2040 but again i did make it myself...

[Tannerthomas]

The key with using rangers is to use the rangers velocity output function. you can then use a comparison chip to only fire a forcer on the piston when the piston has a downward velocity which runs super super good.

[mrfourtysevenman]

i made an engine out of only 3 parts, one slider, one axis, one elastic, and one thruster.

it spins fast and is very small.

it was inspired by the 2 stoke engine in my rc plane.

[TheTONYMUL]

wat mods did u use

[master1257]

what wire chip is that below the screen?

[13igAdam2040]

Expression one.

[andymboss]

could utell me how u did the third one ? i really am curious bc i'm noob to wiremode , so dunno how i should use them . also , where the hell is that pusher thing , i cant find it xD

[xShisalax]

Love the videos, and deffinitly love the voice, thanks for these very helpful (Even though i hardly know what G-mod is apart from videos on Youtube)

[Xurydoz]

With the Gyroscope engine, wouldn't it be possible to place another Gyroscope (not attached to the axis) and subtract one from the other, making the engine work when you spin it around?

[13igAdam2040]

I'm sure you could, but I can't figure it out, then again not given it much though.

Might try to play with it.

[13igAdam2040]

Punctuation is a god send darling.

Also the save is over a year old, what with Garry's Mods constant updates issues do occur.

[SthealthRaider]

Hello i made a gyro engine! but if i wanted to put it on my train it failed... well the engine worked bbut it wouldnt drive it!! maybee i must make a 2 cil

[13igAdam2040]

Could just up the input or add a gearbox/gear reduction.

[DJLOC1991]

lol you sound like kermit the frog

[13igAdam2040]

I'm sure you sound fabulous too.

[joscpe]

For the ranger idea, you could probably use delta to tell if the slapper/piston is coming in or out. Just an idea...

[AMDkicksass]

lol ive made engines powered by explosions they cant power bugger all but fun to watch

[limited06]

Whats in the expression for the first engine? (The forcer one) I cant load it for some reason.

[13igAdam2040]

There isn't one.

[Theronguardaaah]

how do you build one of these?

[Jbo332]

You lie... There is an expression chip there... :P

Unless its another chip... Disguised as an expression chip!

[13igAdam2040]

I like the smaller chips. Okay, a slight lie there ARE expression chips in this video but I only use them on the control plate.

...

Oh wait, you are right. Damn, I did this thing ages ago. But the forcer engine doesn't use an expression.

[SthealthRaider]

how u add throttle to the gyro engine the first one??

[13igAdam2040]

Give bigger input.

[breethdeep]

for some reason i cant get phx to work could you do a video on how to get it on vista i cant seem to find any

[DaManWitDaPower]

just drop it in ur gmod/gmod folder

[predatortheme]

great motors

respect :D

[specopps117]

How would ou implement the forcer motor?

[spinafire]

Maybe you should do a tut for gyroscopes. It seems you know a lot, and bunches of people would probably watch the vid.

[noop5000]

Expression for the 4 cylinder engine please?

thanks

[anthony101derek]

well to make it more intresting if thats all that happen put it in a car that your driveing in and then add some explosives so that if the engine over loads KABOOM

[anthony101derek]

you should make one go to its limet and farther

[13igAdam2040]

Work mean work it to destruction?

Really, the most that happens at REALLY high RPM is the gyro goes loopy and flys away. It's really not that spectacular.

[13igAdam2040]

The ranger would tell the thruster to fire at say "10" units from the ranger.

So when the slider/slapper gets close the thruster fires. But, as the flywheel carrys it round it then fire again when the ranger is 10 away (when slapper/slider is on it's way down). So they fire on the up and down.

[13igAdam2040]

Thanks dude.

[xXalteranXx]

where is da weight motor?

[13igAdam2040]

Far left?

[Kheperan]

for the gyro motor what is the rope thing that goes from the bar to the wheel , isa it a hydraulic

[13igAdam2040]

Nope, rope with rigid option ticked.

[NarrowFire]

awesome!

[13igAdam2040]

Ta very muchly.

[44R0Ndin]

idk whats going on with my gmod, but i seem to have sliders that hate me, if i put any force on them at all they just start spazzing and eventually give the "infinite origin from vphysics" error followed by the slider and prop just going *poof* (disappearing)

[13igAdam2040]

Easy, sliders are rubbish.

Use slapper style instead, far stockier.

[zakokiller]

i cant make the screen you use =( what wire mod do you use?

[13igAdam2040]

Latest SVN version.

[zakokiller]

can you send a link to me?

[13igAdam2040]

Ah, never knew that about the replays. Did wonder why they where going. Also the "I an humanity weep for you" was me.

I'm not a gmod tech support and the option is right there under options (shockingly).

[13igAdam2040]

How so there Sparky?

[13igAdam2040]

I and humanity weep for you.

[VVilcord]

Thanks, very interesting engines. I'm still trying to make the first engine, but I don't know much about wiremod.

[13igAdam2040]

What are you stuck with?

[VVilcord]

What's the small thing under the screen? Is that Expression Gate?

[13igAdam2040]

That it is.

[VVilcord]

Wiremod 633 has some limits. I can't enter outputs on expression chip. I managed to make a very nice slapper engine thanks to you, but it also has some problems.

[stompee500]

i cant seem to get my wire mod working cuz i cant use the wire tool... it doesnt do anything at all please respond if uhave a solution!

[13igAdam2040]

Remove and reinstall? Normally works for most things.

[DaManWitDaPower]

2 questions- 1 what do you use engines for liek how do u use them propolly 2 what do attach the gyroscopes too?

[13igAdam2040]

1 - Cars and being different.

2 - Crank.

[DaManWitDaPower]

i mean like do u attach ropes to the gyroscopes and then there u go or do u use wire and wire thm to the thrusters and what not

[ImAmWatching]

Oh and very good work on your videos

[ImAmWatching]

I didn't know Gmod could be so complicated, all I've ever made on it is a crusher and a very simple flying machine and the Gmod I'm using at my local cyber cafe is rubbish compared to this. shame :(. could you make an simple introduction to the latest Gmod including wire.

ImAmWatching

[myutube67]

you forgot V engines :(

[13igAdam2040]

It's the same as a slider, just in a V shape.

[allukoira]

how do u use the gyros-scope

[spongebobranchpants]

when i load the map i dont have the buttons to use the engines what is wrong i have cheeze buttons wtf thanks for help.

[13igAdam2040]

Do you have an up to date version of wire?

[WhitePum4]

I could show you how a ranger engine works and its very simple and can work asif it actually has gears, but with my 4 cylinder with crank when you dupe it the crank just starts getting wobbly and the slider acts like a rigid wobbly rope.

[13igAdam2040]

Aye, dupes tend to wobble. Hence slapper motors.

[spongebobranchpants]

what prop packs do you have when ever i have a engine that i spawn it is coverd in errors and i dont know wich prop packs to dl wich ones does you have.. thx

[uzkanda]

You mainly use forcer or thruster ones try alternative power source like wight(insane amount of energy leak and the fastest I know for now(my top speed 109mph)), explosives, turret, hidraulic(my favourite insane amount of power)...

[magicoooh]

hehe

"i attempt to build cool crap and then fail spectacularly as my saves always screw up"

hehehe

nice engines

[BuckettheBeggar]

Love the video - very insightful and illuminating. Also inspired me to experiment with building engines.

I'd like to see an explanation or tutorial on gear relationships - how to build and work with them, especially in the context of a vehicle.

Also, may I say, your accent is very pleasing and hypnotic.

[13igAdam2040]

No probs, I can do a gear tutorial.

[PivotAX]

What About V Engines?

[Troglodita1996]

small to the BIG! nice :D

[SthealthRaider]

how do i make zeos engine?? the one whit the 2 bars and wheel

[13igAdam2040]

Errr, which ones that? They are all engines I've made so I'm not sure what you are on about with the Zeos engine.

You mean the up and down engine or slapper one? As I'm willing to do a tutorial for either.

[Forsaken379]

please make a tutorial for engines id love that i subscribed and love it thanks even the small one ( irated it 5 stars)

[13igAdam2040]

Cheers for the 5 stars, which engine would you like a guide for?

[ravencaliber]

how do i work the little tv screens that show throttle i wanna use 1 for a spedometer on naval play,

also can u make a guide on using wire coz i have no idea what to do with them

[13igAdam2040]

Spawn Screen, connect A to Speedo Output Z (you'll have to split the outputs).

Job done.

[drmysko2]

intresting build a big and realistic boat and put the engine iin it.

next time you show up engines take full speed

[jasonthewolf]

you kno you can make gyro engines that work upside down

you just take the gyro on the crank then - a gyro attached to the body. what this does it output the normal gyro on the crank like norm but will act like norm at any angle. just make shore when the attach the gyros there both facing the same way.

[BIGCAL50CAL]

Dude this kicks ass! 5/5*

[puredogs11]

you can make way more engines than that <.< i can think of 5 more already but still very nice wish i have watched this video before i started getting good at engines i could never find out where to put the rope :S but i made a slapper16 radial engines boxers and blah blah btw that big gear thing looked hypnotic ^^

[13igAdam2040]

Aye, I went with engines I know. Shows my limit somewhat.

Really posted to show people engines and explain a little about them, too many gmod engines on youtube that just have horrid rap music put over the top with no explanation.

[Cathodeon]

i didnt underrstand a word of that!! :D lolcim noob too gmod,too me all i understood was thruster :S

[timesplitter66]

howd u get throttle to make the forcers faster?

[13igAdam2040]

Use use an Adv.Input. Or in the video I use the panel.

[timesplitter66]

awesome video. the things that are the ropes on 4:25 engine. howd you get them to stay straight and is it rope or something else im not sure. GREAT engines

[timesplitter66]

oh wait sorry solid ropes. i shouldve listened. :P

[13igAdam2040]

No probs.

[jackster137]

At 4:24 can you tell me what settings you used for the rope?

[13igAdam2040]

The ropes are just regular ropes with the ridged option ticked. No added length either.

[mauststeven]

you forgot radial and the aussie :D

-Deviance
