Practical Problems [SFM]

by James McVinnie 2,001,867 views

Hey guys. Just found out that this hit 2mil. Thanks for all the comments and support. I'm working away on my next big thing when i can. It's going well and is currently set to release closer to the end of the year. I will be releasing a trailer and community challenge soon to get yourself involved with it. Hold tight. X may not deliver, but James will. I'll post more regular updates in my steam group from now on. You can find it further down the description.

Thanks to all who supported this through the saxxys. As many of you know this video was made long before the saxxys were announced and was never really intended to be part of it. I make videos as I enjoy the process and evoking emotion. Some people consider mo cap as cheating. I see it as an easier means to acheive my goals. How you go about making the piece doesn't matter. It's the end product which does. I'm grateful for even getting nominated for the saxxys. All the winners are well deserved. Entering this was a last minute choice due to the large amount of people encouraging me to do so.

Due to the people adding me on steam. I decided to make a group. Feel free to join for gaming and updates on my vids. http://steamcommunity.com/groups/mcvee

Thanks to everyone for the great feedback and comments from the various places this has been circulating around. It means a lot. At this rate i'll be jumping back into SFM soon to explore some other ideas I had.

------------------------------------------------------------­--------------------

As many of you may know I've been pretty busy as of late. But after getting an infected foot I had a bit of free time. I had a plan to do this video since TF2 first came out but I wanted to wait for Source Filmmaker to go official. 130 hours in SFM and Hammer later, here it is. As my foot healed I was getting less and less time to work on it. So I got it to a point where I was happy and just shut it down. It has it's flaws but it was a case of release now or never.

The animation work i did is pretty janky, i'm still learning a lot of this.
Most of it is kinect mo cap of myself and Zach. I barely touched it afterwards for clean up, mostly only the head and hands.

I figured i'd try these as some goals of stuff to release:

75,000 views = Making of video showing mo cap data and custom maps/perspective tricks.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IdvqHhXPwg

150,000 views = A load of still 1080p wallpaper renders.
Find them here: http://www.monkeyjunkie.co.uk/PracticalProblems/

750,000 views = I'll make the destroyed 2fort set public. (Bare in mind that outside of the viewable area on the video its just regular 2fort and isnt really playable)
Find it here: http://www.monkeyjunkie.co.uk/PracticalProblems/

2,000,000 views = New vid. Decided to start this one already. Not a direct successor as much as a spiritual one. But on a much larger scale.

I Still play TF2 quite a bit, always a demoman.

So I decided to give lip syncing a try, seeing that I haven't bothered with it yet. The final render seems a tad out of sync, which wasn't apparent when I was within SFM. Not sure what happened.

I decided to use the famous phone call monologue from taken, enjoy.

[Saxxy Awards winner, 2012. Best Drama]

Thank you for Everyone who Voted for this and helped it to succeed. I believe the bulk of the credit for this video should go to Lars for his amazing music composing. His songs are always such that I dont even need to think, the video just flows from the music. Thanks to sarcasmosaur for the awesome vested medic, and a secret thanks to Norpoify, who posted up the DMX for his short "Patient" which served as the original file basis for this video ( though extremely modified and torn apart). I'd also like to take a second to tip my hat to Soimon , with his entry "story of a sentry". I believe that a video only needs to do one thing well to succeed, and in my opinion, his amazing characterization of the sentry outshines any single element in my video. Give him some love and respect, that guy has fantastic instincts and I think he deserved to win too. you can check out his entry here.

This piece took me 4-5 days to put together. the map is Black_void, one of the stock sfm maps. If you are interested in an alternate version of this movie, I have an earlier somewhat different version here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScEKQvwyQHc

One of the top complaints I've gotten about the piece, is the little bit of violence at the end being too cartoony, which I agree with, but the way it is now just has a special place in my heart, and I couldnt bear to change it.

[OLD][My first attempt at SFM] Once Upon A Time In 2fort - SFM

by Konstantine Rymaruk 172,472 views

90 hours of hard work. It's not perfect by any means. In my eyes I still would like to improve a lot of things, but the project piled up to be such of a clusterfuck that changing something will result screwing up something else. After all this is my first project, and all mistakes I did in this one - I'll never repeat in the future ones. What I also probably will never do is SFM movies that are so long. If I ever do something like this in future it will probably be a lot shorter.
As for the story you have probably guessed - it's inspired by Tarantino. But what it doesn't make 100% Tarantino style is a lot of blood and cool 70-s soundtrack. I was desperate to add blood pools and splatter, even had an idea on how to add them to SFM, so I asked around on forums but nobody helped me out. So I left it without blood, which makes me pretty sad. As for the music - I didn't want to break any copyright rules so I decided to keep stock Valve music.
Originally it was supposed to be more silent, serious and almost without any dialogue, but it was too boring, so I decided to add a few engineer lines in the beggining. Sure it sounds goofy, but it creates some decent build up.
In case anyone wonders - this is my first attempt at animating.
Also - fun fact, I had this idea of a movie since 2009, when I created this Garry's Mod picture. http://sexykot69.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=24#/d29i70v
But only now, when SFM is released, I managed to make it real. :)
Thanks for watching, I really hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.

P.S. Walking animation - bane of my animating existence.

Special thanks to Jimer Lins for his 'tip of the day' series. He helped me out a lot! Check his channel out right here: http://www.youtube.com/user/JimerXLins

Mini-Sentry wants to show you something (SFM)

by rigaudio 125,212 views

He learned to walk! Ain't that a cute lil' gun.

The feet are a bit wobbly, but I'm proud of the overall result. This took me about twelve hours to do, including the sound effects. Most of that time was spent fiddling around with the graph editor and getting frustrated.

To get a sentry model with all the bones, use the _heavy ones. If using a level one sentry, change the body to 3 so that the toolbox disappears.

Source Filmmaker - Armed

by tkellaway 74,874 views

The Scout, looking for some first aid.

I've gotten some music together for the next videos, this one is very quiet in places. Also hoping to make future ones a little longer if possible.

There was a lot of trouble getting the music to play so I had to add it in with video editing software, but other than that I learnt a great deal about rigs - so I should be able to do some nice walking animations among other things.

The next 'Meet the TF2 Commentary' is almost done, but I'm not happy with my noobish animations in places so I will likely re-do quite a bit. I've also had quite a good idea for a new series which is unlike anything else I've seen for SFM, but I need to develop it a bit more so that I don't waste it.

A TF2 Minute (Source Filmmaker)

by TheRealSlot 650,257 views

My first real project using the Source Filmmaker. The concept behind this video was to show the gruesome slow motion details happening in Team Fortress 2 while telling a very small tale of the losing red team.

Every kind of editing was done within the Source Engine, no external programs was used to edit this, showcasing the strength of the Source Filmmaker.

I'LL SMASH IT WITH A HAMMA

by Mateedge 393,679 views

...or, to save on postage, I'll just poison him with THIS!

Okay, so it doesn't make much sense that he takes out a can of Bonk at the end instead of Jarate, I didn't see that until I was pretty much done, and was too stupid to figure out how to make the Jarate copy the motion.

I'm happier with this animation, though I still think I need to work on making my motions less jumpy. I think I rely too much on bends in the knees from pose to pose, and they're much too pronounced. It doesn't help that I come into a lot of the errors only AFTER I render the video, which again, takes a while on my machine. Next video I'm gonna work on some more slow, subtle motions. Also, I have to thank Steam User General for rendering and editing the video for me. He'll probably be doing all of the rendering for future videos. His Steam ID:

Little 2D animated bit done in Flash. I'm a complete doofus in Flash (I practically had to learn the thing to make this), but I think I managed.

Just One More Hat

Interview on ValveTime.net - http://www.valvetime.net/threads/20-hours-later-with-the-sou­rce-filmmaker-interview-with-jojje.208653/
Finally it's done.
Took 15+ hours to animate and lip sync, 4-5 hours to render (but I was asleep at that time) and 30 minutes to final render and upload.

I didn't ask for all this attention, (or maybe I did) frankly it's kind of scary, but at least most people are enjoying it so that's cool.
I know the animation isn't top notch, I'm quite new to animation I can assure you, you can probably tell. But that's why I do videos, to try to improve and get better.
Some people are treating this thing to be the best thing to come outta TF2 or SFM or whatever, I dunno if I agree with that. I think it's nice, myself, but there are things, looking at it now, that I can improve on and change to make it better.

Also no it's not me singing, not my voice, it's Ken Ashcorp.

Here's lyrics, again, all music credits go to Ken Ashcorp.
He is the one singing, not me.

Look at this server, isn't it neat?
People with all their collections complete
Wouldn't you think I'm a guy
A guy who has everything
Look at my pack - five sandmans bold
How many wonders can one backpack hold
Looking at this you'd think, sure
He's got everything
I've got Targes and Pain-Trains a-plenty
I've got Kritzkriegs and Banners galore
You want, Bonk drinks? I've got twenty
But who cares? No big deal, I want more
I wanna be where Gabe Newell is
I wanna see him, see him dancing
Strutting his stuff in that
What do you call it?
Oh, fro
Idle servers don't get you too far
Chances required for every second
Strolling around in that Killer's Kabuto

Up on their heads
Up where their hair
Up where that mullet feels lighter than air
TF2's wrong
And oh, how I long
For one more hat
What would I give, If I could live
With a Tough Guy's Toque
What would I pay
To spend a day with that
Rubber Glove

And oh how I'd love
To speak up above with Robin and
Increase those drop-rates
Soldier's Stash
I'd pay cash
If only I could
And ready to know what the Devs know
Ask them some questions and get some answers
What is a trollsman and why does it
What's the word?
Troll
I'm ready to roll
Why don't you drop
A towering pile of hats up to the top?
The top of my head
I'll wait 'till I'm dead
For one more... hat

This is the final, (somewhat) finished version of the Pulp Fiction scene I displayed a little while ago. Try to ignore the obvious clipping on some things (Scout's bag, demo's chin, etc.), and the bloom at the start which I could do nothing about really bar turning it off.

I didn't really change much in the starting scene apart from more emotion in the demo's face, but you can probably see I got better at some things later on in the clip. It's taken me long enough to go through the film step by step to replicate the little details, and when I was finished I didn't feel like going back and fixing up the start, so sorry for that.

The map was made in Hammer, Valve's level editor, so the scene is somewhat similar to that of the film, although not exactly because of differing proportions and I was going entirely off of visuals. I couldn't find a decent door model that would open in one of the ending scenes, which is why the medic seems to appear from nowhere.

This final version took about 3 hours to render (because it only seemed to want to compile off of a single core), and approximately a week (working week, 5 days) to make.

Anyways, enjoy.
