Are you sure this isn't just a similar looking rip? If you can give some proof that'd be great, but you honestly haven't provided any evidence.

Some really cool rips going on around here great job

its basically my model in a T pose. he made it a T pose and edited some textures

You may want to note that he did that in the readme and include the unedited textures. Its kind of rude not to credit somewhere where its due.

I ripped all the stuff from Gmod just to clear things up.

Wait, so you just took what was somebody else's rip anyway and you just extracted it second hand? *Sigh* Now I really am going to have to remove it. Don't even try to tell me ripping from GMod isn't second hand because there's no way you could find those models in a Valve game otherwise.

awww darn it....i just got done converting them too...i have to say scaleing that pyramid head was really hard to do (the way how it was posed made it hard to see if i was sizeing it right.) crap.
well i'm always looking for more models to use even if they ar'nt the best. MikeyLevi I'd love to use the rest of your models on MMD but it's they can't be posted here. just PM them please? The nurse model actually looks pretty cool the way how it's posed.

Ehh, a lot of the rips on here are from Gmod. >_>

Like what, because I can guarantee none of mine aren't from it and a lot of the others aren't either. If you could specify which ones ARE I'd honestly love to know. The only GMod rips I'd want on the site would be Valve models since they would literally be unchanged aside from their file format and the very few that are actually specific to GMod.

What is mikey talking about? the person who imported it into gmod got it from my rip which was the first one that was posted. i just didnt know how to tpose it so mikey ripped the one that was imported into gmod, which was originally mine.

Ah well that would make sense. I'll reupload it than.

Whats it matter if a model is ripped from Gmod or not?

GMod is hardly the original source for the model. Its existence there means that someone ripped it from the original game before that same person or someone else messed with it to get it to work in the program. It'd be like ripping sprites from a fangame and posting them as if they were straight from their original game. Which it is in this case pretty much every way you think about it.

Thats where you're wrong. Most of the models in Gmod are straight from the game, just with a rig added to it. You don't need to edit it to work with Gmod.

But that's the thing dude. As I said, you're getting it second hand at the very least. I may sound picky, but I much prefer to see things ripped directly from the source whenever possible. Not to mention I've seen my fair share of poor rips simply dumped carelessly into the Garry's Mod, which really only reinforces my already solid opinion on it.
