Help Problem : Rig controls not showing

• Upvotes

I was fiddling around in SFM and reloaded a new map. I wanted to move the models and there are no controls other than this universal one. The models are .mdl, from valve and they are not anything usermod or custom. I had this problem once before but after closing/opening sfm it had fixed itself, so I'm not quite sure what to do. Toggling the 'Hidden Controls" does nothing as well. I'm sure this is an easy fix but I have no clue, only been using sfm for a few weeks on and off, any help is appreciated thank you :0))

Я понимаю что вы можете обо мне подумать (сублимация вещь хорошая )Мне нужна объективная оценка моих работ.

Сейчас я размышляю над тем, чтобы попробовать монетизировать свои навыки, но для начала хочу понять, насколько мой нынешний уровень соответствует этому. Поэтому решил выложить свои работы и попросить вас о честной оценке и критике.

Для понимания моего опыта: у меня около 200 часов в SFM.

Пожалуйста, оцените мой уровень по шкале от 1 до 10. Буду благодарен за конструктивную критику и советы о том, над чем мне стоит поработать.

Заранее спасибо всем, кто откликнется!(I'd like to get some honest feedback on my work.

I know what you might think of me (sublimation is a wonderful thing, after all).

I'm currently facing a dilemma: I'd like to find a way to monetize my skills. But first, I want to make sure I'm actually good enough to start doing that. That's why I've decided to make this post.

For context, I have around 200 hours in SFM.

So, please, what overall rating would you give my work on a scale of 1 to 10? I'd really appreciate your help and honest feedback!)

Help How did I do this?

Post image
7 Upvotes

I was trying to make a camera shake that slowly faded. I somehow succeeded, I did *something* that allowed me to adjust the tapering effect I wanted by adjusting the motion editor but it was completely by accident and now I can't replicate it. Anyone got experience with this feature? How do I do it again?

Animation Dr.Chainsaw old sfm?

1 Upvotes

Does anyone remember a SFM skit from the early days when TF2 went f2p? from what i remember it involved the medic, engineer and heavy. The conversation went something like:

Engineer: Dr, I've hurt my finger strumming on my banjo
Dr.Chainsaw: Let me take a look at that finger, Oh it doesnt look good, i think theres something wrong with your pancreas.
Engineer:No, I dont think thats it.
Dr.Chainsaw: Sorry son, I'm gonna need to take a look at your pancreas.

*cuts to Dr & heavy eating sandwiches*

Heavy: Oh these sandwiches taste good Dr.Chainsaw what are they?
Dr.Chainsaw: pancreas
Heavy: *throwing up*
Dr.Chainsaw: Oh son that doesnt look good, i need to look at your pancreas.

It's just something a group of friends still quote but cannot find it for the life of us, google hasnt been much use nor youtube.

Request I'm building a new SFM Model Browser. What would you change about the current one?

2 Upvotes

I'm building a replacement for SFM's Model Browser using a modified version of VPKEdit.

A goal is to load and preview models outside SFM's 32-bit memory limits, reducing crashes when browsing models.

What frustrates you about SFM's current Model Browser? What would you change or add?

Below is an early alpha preview. Development is ongoing.

Animation Animation freeze

1 Upvotes

Does someone know how to fix my problem?

I was making an animation, and wanted to export it. I wanted the animation to be shorter and accidentally, by low sfm knowledge i double clicked the shot1, and thinked that making these yellow model boxes shorter also works like shot1. And now when i exported the animation. i noticed that in the video the animation just doesnt play, only 1 frame for 1 minute, and when i checked my sfm animation i noticed that my animation is frozen, and i cant unfreeze it, can someone help me?

(My keyframes are still on their places)

Help Is it possible to use models from the gmod steam workshop in SFM

1 Upvotes

[SOLVED]

There are a ton of models on gmod that I want to use to animate, but I only know how to work with SFM and I want to if it is possible to use the gmod models on sfm because both are based on source

*I use linux and I only found solutions for windows
