Valve Products always have parts so good that the community puts up with the parts you wouldn't believe came out of an actual professional development team.
As someone who keeps dipping in and out of Source 2's filmmaker, I really appreciate these videos. Particularly excited about that 'porting internet/source files to source 2' video. The way I learned was quite slow, but with a quick enough workflow I'd probably, finally, take the plunge.
Wow, lots of helpful stuff in here! Those spline rigs in particular actually look really convenient, no more hand animating wires and cables! I look forward to seeing some more tips and tricks in the future!
As a person who has no plan in ever working with source or 3D animation whatsoever, I can still confidently say I’m so concerning interested in everything this man does out of his sheer talent
Yeeesss! Thank you Harry for sharing your knowledge with us! I've been wanting to get into S2FM for a while but just couldn't get around understanding all the features. Excited for more tutorials to come!
That clip showcasing parallax/displacement mapping in Source 2 makes me jelly as someone who converted to using Eevee in Blender whilst waiting for S2FM.
What a sweet buttery voice doin the explaining. ^^ I don't use Source... at least not yet, and even I see how neat of a tutorial this is, since there seem to be many problems with the engine new users wouldn't know how to solve. Maybe I can use it some day in the future or just to have nice some knowledge.
im 99.9999% sure i’ll never use sfm, both 1 and 2(or others if valve ever learns how to say 3), but by god is this interesting major envy of ya’lls patience, learning and mastering stuff like this, i know my ADHD would never let me concentrate long enough for that

"I'm not even angry. I'm being so, sincere right now. Even though you broke my heart and killed me. And tore me to pieces. And threw every piece, into, a fire. As they burned, it hurt because, I was so happy for you!"
This is super awesome. I'd like to ask, would you make a tutorial on how to install S2FM? I feel that would really help a lot of SFM users who may want to try out S2FM.
I have a question : In SFM, some eye-textures allow to make animated irises by applying the "$irisframe" integer by using custom materials in the model tab. It allows me for example to animate an eye and to make it shrink or grow at will. The vtm texture allowed for multiple textures to be compiled in a single one, allowing me to animate it. I'm still looking for a way to achieve the same result in S2FM. Is it even doable ?
Not sure if you still reply or look at comments on this, but I have a big question. Gradient fog in hammer works after compiling and loading in-game, but NOT in S2FM. Any way to make it work without using volumetric fog?
Someday..I will have a strong PC And then I'll start learning source filmmaker 2.. and I'll watch this video again time because I'll forget every tip 😅 but now i just wanna say, your voice is really cool
any tips on creating environments? i want to get into the art of my OWN spaces and objects... what tools or programs would u recommend in making realistic stuff like that? and also, how do i implement that into S2FM to make my own scenes?
i REALLY WISH i can learn source filmmaker but i dont even know how to animate a single frame or make incredible lighting would be great if there was a "starter" tutorial or smth
@@TheGreatHalberd the extra complexity is almost all engine side, in terms of actually using it its nearly identical, with some quality of life improvements
6:00 Ah, the traditions of Source tools. "Hey, so this part of the engine is supposed to work, but just doesn't. At all. So I've included a download that allows it to work..."
Well, it's working as intended. The issue is that Half Life doesn't ship with all the source content (because that would double or triple the game size for no reason) You only need the original files if you intend to edit and make custom stuff, so it's a pretty niche problem overall. =P
Hi, I was wondering if you could explain to me how to make model's eyes glow? Like for example the combine models, the eyes do not glow and I'd like to make an animation
I am sooo late, but do you know how I can fix broken materials? For example, some citizen models have a red grid on them and I don't know how to fix that.
was hoping one day we'd get a proper S2FM standalone release with more graphical systems, fixes to tools and janky workarounds, etc. But it seems like S&Box is doing that now? I've asked around but still haven't gotten an answer about what S&Box's S2FM is like
I love the sudden cuts to "...other...body parts." Harry knows, and he's judging everyone.
3:02 there you go 👌🏻
Ah, the internet, such a beautiful place

Great (?) to see that at least S2FM keeps having things accessible or fixable in a confusing way, just like the ol' SFM!
The lighting is much more impressive than before.
Super useful. Really looking forward to future episodes 👏

I don't plan on using sfm (1 or 2) anytime soon, but I do love learning how things work, and this was interesting from that viewpoint.
Now, I've heard of sourcery BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS!
This was very helpful actully
Thank you
Thanks for uploading this! I’ve been considering someday going into SFM animation myself, and this could be helpful for when that time comes!
every time I see your video, I want to switch to the s2fm engine :)
Yeeesss! Thank you Harry for sharing your knowledge with us! I've been wanting to get into S2FM for a while but just couldn't get around understanding all the features. Excited for more tutorials to come!
Never thought i would get a video tutorial from Harry on how to use Source2 Engine but i love it!
Finally, a tutorial from the god of animation himself.
That clip showcasing parallax/displacement mapping in Source 2 makes me jelly as someone who converted to using Eevee in Blender whilst waiting for S2FM.
...i suddenly appreciate the hell sfm animators go through to bring us joy
This is a MASSIVE help, I can't thank you enough.
How do you make the lighting do this -> 0:34?
I did not expect new SFM to have so many cool features...
Nice voice. Very smooth, very narratory.
What a sweet buttery voice doin the explaining. ^^
I don't use Source... at least not yet, and even I see how neat of a tutorial this is, since there seem to be many problems with the engine new users wouldn't know how to solve. Maybe I can use it some day in the future or just to have nice some knowledge.
that is actually cool that there is an Comunity that is Truly trying to get some Great videos made in SFM. i give you full respect to what you do :)
i don't even use source 2 filmmaker but this was entertaining to watch
WOW, the Xen Shader stuff comes with so many useful features I never dared to investigate (like parralax occlusion mapping)...
2:39 holy... ive been begging for something like this
Holy crow that a lot of things
Thanks sure this stuff will help great work
im 99.9999% sure i’ll never use sfm, both 1 and 2(or others if valve ever learns how to say 3), but by god is this interesting
major envy of ya’lls patience, learning and mastering stuff like this, i know my ADHD would never let me concentrate long enough for that
I didn't understand a single thing but still watched, Source2 is amazing.
Definitely hoping to see something on the engine's cloth physics!
Amazing, well beyond me. Last time I dabbled with this sort of thing was Hammer. It's funny to see that things still spawn at origin point.
This video might convince me to use s2fm again

I know everything similar to Source Filmmaker. I would love this video and something quite exciting.
52 seconds and I'm already excited to see what he's learnt because I don't no much
Harry any news on like a official sfm2 release?
I do not understand a single bit but i love seeeing behind the scene editing
Every time you upload a video I get excited, because you rarely upload videos. :D
Source 2 makes looks like SFM underwent a whole super saiyan transformation
*Grabs desk, chair, notepad, and pencil*
Alright. I'm ready to attend to the next sfm2 class.
Does your desk include a built-in voice recorder, camera, and rocket boosters?
@@aplimsollpunk2738 unfortunately no because Gabe is a greedy bastard who doesnt share until they mass produce it.
omg I'm looking forward to these series ! Do you mind doing a video or two for total beginners ?
Please continue making those portal songs I listen to them everyday
3:14 - 3:15 WAS THAT HARUKA FROM THE YAKUZA FRANCHISE?!
That was a based move. I like that.
very cool
i love you forever, harry
Feel that will never forget his animations for some in explainable reason
This is super awesome. I'd like to ask, would you make a tutorial on how to install S2FM? I feel that would really help a lot of SFM users who may want to try out S2FM.
"Its finally here"
source 2 looks so good i think now might be my time to learn sfm
Just know that it isn't going to look as good as Harry's animations without a lot of post processing.
I've never used Source in my life but this is still interesting
Same
Good tip: Use re shade to make such contrast inside the portal 2
This is so informative! How did you learn all of these tips and tricks? Trial and error?
Finally! YEEEESSS!

I don't understand anything at all, but it looks cool
3:08 where can i find this aircraft model for s2fm?
Interesting… I’m gonna use this tip if I ever become a s2fm animator (never :cry:)
I'm surprised you didn't talk about the weird S2FM map lighting situation.
Amazing!

So...meet the cores 4?
Probably not. 😕
I can't seem to get the post-process editor's effects to show up in S2FM. How were you able to do it?
Not sure if you still reply or look at comments on this, but I have a big question. Gradient fog in hammer works after compiling and loading in-game, but NOT in S2FM. Any way to make it work without using volumetric fog?
Me: watching this to learn how to use SFM 2
Also me: doesn't intend on getting SFM 2, I just enjoy Harry's videos haha.
Ah. The first and hopefully not only episode.. PLEASE HARRY DON'T LEAVE ME STUCK LIKE YA DID WITH SFM!
Needs more Lens Flare and Camera Shack. :U
HES STILL ALIVE
tanks for da help
I dont use sfm but still watched the video bcus maybe I will make vids/images in the future :)
Спасибо!)
Someday..I will have a strong PC
And then I'll start learning source filmmaker 2.. and I'll watch this video again time because I'll forget every tip 😅
but now i just wanna say, your voice is really cool
Hey Harry
Where am I going to download S2FM?
hi i got a little problem whenever i tried to download the map pack it either crash or when i download it from steam it's empty how can i fix it ?
NICEEE~~ 👍😎✨.
is there a way to port particles from sfm to s2fm?
Harry, would you mind sharing those HDRI maps? I can't seem to find anything similar anywhere on the web. Did you create them? Thanks
any tips on creating environments? i want to get into the art of my OWN spaces and objects... what tools or programs would u recommend in making realistic stuff like that? and also, how do i implement that into S2FM to make my own scenes?
i REALLY WISH i can learn source filmmaker
but i dont even know how to animate a single frame or make incredible lighting
would be great if there was a "starter" tutorial or smth
There is actually a series of tutorial videos valve themselves made, it's for s1fm, but i believe that it's applicable in s2fm.
@@adeeta5701 From what I know, S2FM is just SFM, but more complex.
@@TheGreatHalberd the extra complexity is almost all engine side, in terms of actually using it its nearly identical, with some quality of life improvements
ye but its a bit too "complicated"

How did you get the water in the outro
how did you get the aperture desk job models into s2fm?

do you get all the functionality no matter where you get SFM2 from? Like, If i get it from dota, will i be able to everything the Alyx SFM2 can do?
could you make a video about lighting?
So is meet the cores 4 gonna be in both SFM and S2FM?
Hi, I was wondering if you could explain to me how to make model's eyes glow? Like for example the combine models, the eyes do not glow and I'd like to make an animation
Will "Meet The Cores 4" come out?
2:17 we all understand what you talking about. We all understand...
I am sooo late, but do you know how I can fix broken materials? For example, some citizen models have a red grid on them and I don't know how to fix that.

1:30 when you accidentally channel your inner LGR.
How do you get S2FM from Aperture Desk Job?
i cant seem to see post processing take effect until i go to timeline and click motion editor kind of annoying to jump from window to window
im going to watch all the tips and tricks of sfm maybe i find some how to do a mirror
This might be a strange question, but can I import objects or even maps from Roblox into this?
Any chance for S2FM beginner tutorial? ;)
good to know Source 2 still has a lot of spagget
The spaghetti is tastier though!
