    This is about how to use your animation in Source (as the title card in the video clearly reads), and not about how you create one.

    That's exactly what this tutorial is for

    If you want me to teach you how to use a 3D software package then I must inform you that is a ridiculous request

    eh just a basic tut on how to make it.
    this tut is just about moving your custom animation from the 3d program to source.
    hardly touches up about how you actually how you animated.
    make a tut talking about the basics of rigging and key framing the models

    Does that sound morally acceptable to you?

    well the tutorials pretty useless if you dont know how to animate.
    he makes them almost like its in a series he should teach you to do a simple simple animation and then how to move it to source.

    I mean its like making a tutorial on how to save a facepose and play it in gmod.
    if you don't know how to lip syth then its useless.

    why do i need to thank max? he made a tutorial which is pretty useless if you dont know how to do basic animations.

    what max did was make a tutorial were he assumes his viewers know the basic.
    he should either make one that teach's the basic and concepts of just making the animation not just exporting it to source.
    or point to a tutorial that dose.
    If not then the tutorials useless to the vast majority and its a waste of effort on his part.

    HOW

    TO

    USE

    Making animations is easier than learning how to put an animation in the source without tutorials (for me).

    ps: Sorry for bad english

    Scoutking, what you're doing is basically trying to make Max feel like what he's doing has no purpose thus making him feel worse; It's very obvious, and you're not very good at it. Stop trying to fuck with people and be a little more useful in the forum. Although we might not take is as seriously, alot of people come to the section looking for help and when they do we all need to pitch in and tell them the good stuff. Wow, i'm quite off topic, aren't I? But back to my main point, stop ur trollung

    The good stuff?
    thats exactly what im saying point in the direction of the other half of the basics and concepts of animating for source or make one.
    Im ASKING to know were "The Good Stuff" is for the other half of animating the part were maxed assumed, he can suggest were to start OR make one, if he dose neither 1 or 2, what he did was pretty useless in my honest opinion.

    You still fail to understand this is all about USING your animation in Source and not CREATING it

    "Custom animation tutorial "
    imply s your going to learn to animate and maybe use it in source.
    Name your threads correctly then.
    I would say the title "Custom animation from 3ds Max To source"
    or "Custom animation importing/exporting tutorial"

    Holy shit you are retarded, comparing a backflip to animating is a horrible analogy, even if your trolling thats pretty bad.

    well I was also waiting for the tutorial, i am one of the people who asked him to make a tutorial over custom animations, so I was expecting something els completely before the tutorial was even posted, is it not natural to be a little disappointed?
    now go have some more life issues and get out of FP

    If i'm animating say a combine or a CSS model or a special character, (Breen, Barney, etc,) would I still use the male compilation files?

    yes because they have the same proportions and bones, but you wouldn't be recompiling the same MDL

    for example metrocops use police_animations.mdl

    Who says he isn't? I just tested my animation and copied it into the Models folder in Gmod. It works.

    By the way Max, thanks for the tutorial!

    Max, where can I get the compilation files for the TF2 characters? I'm pretty sure all of their skeletons are different, right?
