Getting .py traceback errors when exporting SMD
Alright, exporting with Blender 2.79 seems to work fine with ver. 2.10.2 of the source tools. However if there's a better way to do the proportion trick in new Blender, someone let me know please.

I've been using ver. 2.4.1 of the source tools, so I guess I'll try one closer to 2.79. I do wonder why this guide is using 2.79 if it's so outdated though.
I'm getting this big traceback error in Blender 2.79 when exporting to SMD after using this proportion trick method I found on YouTube.

Here are links to both my Blender 4.3 and Blender 2.79 blend files:

This is the guide I'm using: https://youtu.be/EmVZBAM7i_A?si=ADZ9yfNIxjijAhFi

If I'm using the wrong guide and/or there's a better method please let me know. I'm horrible with these kinds of things.
