anyone have a tutorial for the sequences or good at writing instructions? I have been trying but cant get it to work as attended. Thank you! If I dont respond for a while then my apologies. I will try and check regularly.

very very thanks you my hero

I did. It was just under some really bright lights in my animation and it reflected them so much that it just looked white instead of the normal blue. I just had to dim the lights a little to account for it

replace the shield textures with this.

It's all pretty good! Had some issues with the shield being extremely reflective, but other than that, it's a good model

Yeah, I did the roll which isn't too bad and tried to do the walk, but that didn't turn out as well as i hoped.

Thank fuck I came back to read this. I spent like, an hour animating a roll before I thought: "Shit, did they make a sequence for it?" Saved me so much time, thank you

sorry it works just I want a rig so that I dont have to move a huge amount of joints no rig i have works with it

Works fine for me and of the 1500+ subscribers, this is the first I've heard of this issue.

this crashs sorce film maker for me just this model nothing else so idk I cant even load it without sfm crashing but any other model works just fine! just your droideka gives issues!

?? I have no idea

Hey im making this in to a GMOD npc whats the animations codes?

Please port this over to Garry's Mod.

can you make other droids please

Great. Thanks for the response.

It worked!! Thanks so much!!

Crappy job, but someone has to do it! lol

@Pte Jack Why are you such a helpful fellow

BullDog, Read the desciption for this model... The Edit Note: Test this for me would you?

Sorry Bulldog, Got sidetracked yesterday. Working on it now. I have a few more things to look at first.

It's been awhile.. Have you got the link...?

That looks like a checkerboard from what I can see of it (the capture is awful small Check ShareX in the Stream Store for a better capture program, it's free.) Give me a few I 'm going to set something up and give you a link to what I think is the missing texture. I'll tell you how to install it when I send the link.

Here it is...

It's all there.... Why the heck is it not working.. I'm gonna try SFM and if it doesn't work I'll post another comment.

hmmm, I've removed all my work copies from SFM and subbed this. The shield "should" play like this when deployed. http://i.imgur.com/teSeEnM.gif

When I subbed the item it did not ask if I wanted to replace any materials, so this is not the problem.

Have a look at the following path and see if the materials and textures actually exist. steamapps\common\SourceFilmmaker\game\workshop\materials\models\ptejack\starwars\droidekas

However the Shield VMT calls the Shield3.vtf in that folder and it also calls a detail texture file which should be in your game\workshop\materials\effects\tiledfire\bluefire\ folder called firelayeredslowtiled512a.vtf See if that eixsts.

Also check the tf\materials\effects\tiledfire for a bluefire folder and that texture file.

I have a sneaking suspicion that the model didn't wrap up that texture when it uploaded to the workshop. This would cause the shield to appear purplish with checkerboards if it doesn't exist. The checkerboards won't be really obvious because the material is animated.

Let me know. I may have to rework the model to find the correct texture and get the material to upload.

Also, take a screenshot of the problem, upload it to an image service like imgur or to your profile artwork and send me a link. But I think this might be the problem. I'm just surprized that no one reported til now.

Didn't do anything..

Unsub start SFM and let it clear, then resub

I accidently clicked No to all and I've forgotten what file it conflicted with.. It isn't asking me again about saying Yes to all etc... I don't know what to do..

as in B&P checkerboard? It is possible that the the file didn't finish downloading from the Workshop, Unsub and resub, if asked to replace materials always say yes to all.

Or the other possibility is that you have another model that has material named the same in a higher priority and the model can't find the material or texture, but this is less likely because of the way I named and placed the materials for it.

The shield is a purple texture.. How can I fix this?

SUPER GREAT JOB PTE JACK KEEP UP :) :) :)

THEY ARE NO MATCH

Jack does it again. XD

in other words, go for it

I mean, I may use it if I ever get back into make posters or even a project. Lost interest but I was saying that this would be an interesting piece for my things.

Why would I post it to a public workshop if not? Nothing commerical though

This is a really neat-looking model. May use it in a poster or two. :P

sry

could you ever fix a rig for this masterpiece?

Well at least think about is all I ask, thanks.

I probably could, but probably won't

Don't suppose you could do the unmasked pyro model that Gmod has?

yeah that's coming from Blender into SFM. There's always some degradation. (well, sometimes anyway)

Nice job Pte Jack! Your animations are a bit rough, but I created my own rolling and shooting animation so far to replicate their counterparts in the Episode 1 film. Old school animating really does kick some serious clanker!

As for making a rig. Yes you can use the Autorigger in the workshop to do it, however, because of the way SFM creates its IK rigs, the bones twist and turn without warning. I've tried. Also building manual IKs produce the same result, IKs just aren't pretty on this model. Old School animating produces the best results.

Just got another report of the shield being a missing material. I'm investigating, but it may be a workshop material conflict (though there should be none). I may have to do a redo on this model if it is a conflict and make the materials more unique in name.

Been waiting a long time for this!

Bakugan, before it was cool.
