Okay... I'm trying to use these models from the gmod workshop:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=110101728

But, as expected their Eyeposing flexes do not work! T_T I don't know how to fix it but if anyone can teach me that'd be great! :D Thanks!

So I was planning on making some sort of a Lost Planet 3 cutscene using SFM but I'm not sure where I can find a snow-based map like the ones in the project mainly by James McVinnie (Creator of "Practical Problems"). Here's the video if you haven't seen it yet:

Anyways, I'm not sure if there are maps similar or the actual maps he used available right now but it'd be great to be able to use them! I just need to be pointed in the right direction... At least. Lol but yeah I hope there are some out there because that'd be great! :D Thanks for the help in advance! :D

I think it's easily fixed.
1. Select the second shot.
2. Go to motion editor.
3. Select time from around 0:20 (before the curves go nuts) to infinity.
4. Put the playhead on 0:20 and apply 100% playhead preset to the selected time.

OH MY GOD IT WORKED THANK YOU! :D

I'll try this! Thanks for the help! ^_^

check the motion editor. make sure all time is selected. you can also use the motion editor the remove that section. maybe C&P another section over that.

can also try sticking another keyframe after that point and see if the

and did you once have a keyframe there and removed it?

I tried doing the keyframe thing and all it did was move the region of "error" and not extend it or anything so no that doesn't work! T_T

So yeah... I have this little problem with SFM... It's not letting me animate properly... I started this little project of mine for a POV animation through the eyes of a soldier. I haven't been far in the animation process, right now I'm only moving the roots to their positions THEN I'll start turning things and putting more assets in. I have the actions all written down so the whole thing is scripted. ANYWAYS, I was trying to start animating today until I noticed a problem... Here's the link to the video that I posted showing the problem, skip to 0:20 if you just want to skip the beginning part:

But yeah at some point, the parts just go to an unknown location somewhere in the map (which I have located). I tried to do some keyframing "tricks" (if you could call it that) but that did not work. I replaced the model with an identical one but THAT didn't work. So right now? I'm bummed. Considering this is my second attempt at animating with SFM both times have not been too friendly with me. My patience is waning. I need help! T_T

Thanks in advance!

I had the same problems on some big high quality maps.
There could probably be a fix for it, but I would think SFM couldn't handle it and would crash more frequently than it does already.

Ahh I gotcha, well I hope that somehow it gets fixed sometime ^_^

Okay, now if you guys have never heard about the cinematic mod for half-life then you need to look it up. RIGHT NOW. But anyways, I tried to open a few maps from that mod because I copied all the resources over to the SFM directory and I can't seem to open a few of them because of some "Engine Hunk Overload" or something like that. Now the problem, as fakefactory stated was that I need to put in a command in the cfg file in that directory but it was already in there. I can't seem to pinpoint any fix on that situation... Anybody have any ideas?

I actually don't know, but I would send the .bsp, as someone could create a .zip with malicous files within and it would look suspicious.

Hmm... I'll look for it

What do I send? Just the .bsp file? do I send a .rar or .7zip file with all the assets? (materials, particles) but thanks for telling me! :D

I tried to find a fix for missing HDR lighting but it didn't work for me so I was wondering if anybody else could do it for me because apparently it didn't seem too difficult but my computer somehow prohibits me from doing things like recompiling models to fix eye movement... T_T so yeah, it's just one map and it'd be great if someone could do it for me! ^_^ Thanks in advance if anyone does help! :D:postcardf:
