How to make costume models?

[Alankiller]

I notice that the player models in rp were original models however with different hands and head. I just want to ask how to do it with normal models in gmod singleplayer, if its possible? In short I want to take the costume head and put it on different body which normally has its own head and hands.
Its only for my purposes, such as character screenshots.

Thank you

If I recall correctly its a system based on Bone merge.

You can do it simply with something like PAC3 or E2, which'll probably suffice for single player.

I have no clue how the bone merge for the server clothing system works but its a damn good system.

if you want to take some of the tnb heads and put the clothes on them like the server does, you need to download the bonemerge tool. you just spawn some of the tnb clothes, right click on the model, then left click on the little yellow effect symbol below the clothes to put them on the model

if you mean making other, non-tnb models just be heads and give them a different body/head, that's not always possible unless you know how to make model addons and edit models and stuff.

what you CAN do sometimes though is use the submaterial tool. just input 'null' into the material path so that its invisible, and then on some models different parts of the bodies are seperate from the head. so you can individually make a body or a head invisible and combine two or more models. to put them together you'd use the bonemerge tool again.
