How to Play Piano using the Valve Source engine and GMod

Still Alive Performed on GMod Piano <<<Clicky

Quote:

Crazy emmer effer called FPtje on YouTube has used the Valve Source engine and GMod (yeah grandma, that’s like, a sort of sandbox add-on thingie built using the Source SDK…er…which is kind of like a, um, forget it, never mind) to create a playable piano within the Half-Life environment, on which he plays along to “Still Alive” in this here video, seemingly BY AIMING AND FIRING HIS GUN. In theory I understand what’s happening here, but I’m not sure I would be able to explain it without reading from the post I just wrote. Holy shit, when did I fall so far behind?

Anyway, it’s awesome. As Mr. tje (or perhaps Ptje?) points out in his YouTube post, “It’s hard to play a piano with a gun!” I couldn’t agree more.

The video won't load. It's just all white where the player should be. :(

It happens with every YouTube video I try now.

would it be hard to implement a mode where each keyboard key is linked to a different note ?

you could make several sound sets and have jams in gmod :p

I think it's real.
Even if it's fake, it's impressive.

I made a piano in a TFC funmap five years ago.
I somehow suspect this is way more complicated... all I had to do was make buttons for the keys, have the button sound be a piano note, and could use TFC's built in pitch altering abilities to make each note a different tone.

Your title is false, it didn't use any aspect of the Source engine. The only thing Source had to do with this was Garrys Mod. The entitys where made in lua and spawned, then he figured out what he needed. It's real.
