SFM, And What I Do With It

I learned how to use PVKII models with Source Film Maker. It is apparent to me that I am not alone, in that regard.

Regardless, the models initially did not work for me, so I changed VertexLitBeckmann in the VMTs to VertexLitGeneric. If I have made a grave error, please let me know.

For my first endeavour, I made a silly picture.

If I make anything else, I'll put it here. Like those other guys who do this.

    Nice! Can't wait to see more SFM movies of PVKII.

    That so reminds me of magicka.

    Now get to it lad, I also eagerly wait to see your masterpieces!

    Denshin is a rather overpowered class.

    We're currently working on making Denshin less OP.

    I need to add a disclaimer to everything featuring that model.

    "Not Magicka"

    That, or I give him a wizard's staff... Oh hey, I have one of those.

    If you're interested there's this project that I'm working on. It consists of an adaptation of the PVKII assets (in this case the characters) onto SFM. Your idea of faceless knights actually makes me want to ask you if you're interested to work on certain aspects of these models, more precisely the hats and other wearable props. You know, posable bandanas and capes.

    I already had a wizard's staff model, but I thought I'd make a unique staff for an Arch-mage.

    I'm still working on these things.

    This one is more editing than Source Film Maker. I didn't like the idea of doing all of that background in SFM.

    Is there a larger version of that? Would be an awesome desktop wallpaper.

    I know, right?

    Use that magnifying glass icon in the lower right, and then use it again. That should give you the full size image.

    Based on a true story.

    And then the trinkets respawned.

    I plan to make a few more of these, in honor of the player behind the Gestir.

    Eye-posing is trippy.

    Gestir's eye-posing is fridgeed beyond belief. It still gives the character a lot of personality because of that.

    Fridgeed? What tha fridge is that word supposed to mean? I meant "fridgeed" and not... that thing.
    Edit: lol, I just realized the whole cussing rule. I always forget that the rules here aren't the same as on YouChew.

    Frostbite's lighting is about as messed up as the eye-posing. Yellow and pink and bright neon colours in general all over the icy surfaces.

    I've always wondering what's with the colorful sparkles in Frostbite. That also happens in some Gmod maps like Middle of Nowhere_Day, and even Valve-made models like the chandelier from Mann Mannor. By saying that it's a VMT issue like the VertexLitGeneric one from the classes, so someday we can solve this mystery. I still want to know why is Island's water yellow instead of being, well, water.

    Tortuga's a pretty good map for SFMing. Relatively few strange lights and errors.

    While not quite compatible with the other animations, these poses will nevertheless be immortalized on this forum as the greatest ever created. Until that day, they will remain as simple renders.

    Oh wait, that last one actually works with the other animations.

    Not actually made with SFM, but there's so much post-editing that it's hard to tell.

    No you may not have the sombrero. It is not yet finished. I was merely trying to test it out when suddenly a sunset appeared.
