Source Filmmaker on the Steam Deck

"It just works"... mostly! I had to use "-noqt -usevgui" to fix the viewport flickering. (This didn't actually change the UI, somehow.) The error behind the Engineer might be caused by one of the 200-or-so models from the Steam Workshop I had to grab while working on that one video segment for hbomberguy a couple years ago, but I'm not sure. Speaking of which, you won't see any pop-ups when running from the main Deck UI, so it will appear as if the program has frozen, but that's because you can't see the box that asks you if you want to download your Workshop subscriptions. So run the thing in Desktop mode first. (Well, you should do that anyway.)

Finally, I can now get frustrated by random crashes while animating on the go!

[@Mr.master117]

Finally I can spend hours of work only for the document could not save because there was an error writing the file error to show up

I thought it was a meme video but holy shit, last time I used SFM it was still super unstable, are you sure your Steam Deck isn't gonna explode

[@ExploderIlu]

sfm is stable now dont worry

He can solve practical problems, but can he solve those errors behind him?

Blender is on Steam as well, I'm curious how the Steam deck handles that?

[@myrminki]

As good as any decent pc with linux because blender runs natively an even faster than windows, but of course a monitor will be recommended

[@Jjules48]

its great, i made a couple renders for a meme, and it handled better than my pc.

[@ferpykins]

now to see how long it takes to render something LOL

Now I can animate Heavy doing funny things on the go!

OMG TF2 CONTENT ON MAX'S CHANNEL??? WHAT YEAR IS THIS????

[@TheVenomousBeetle]

Is this even good to use with a controller setup

[@R0ck4x3]

Doubtful, but the fact that it's possible is fascinating.

[@madjunir]

Looks good! But Maybe better to use it in desktop mode.

[@SCA_Edits]

How do I do this?

[@TGSuineg]

Try playing with 2 players.

Why

[@SillyMakesVids]

Oh shiiiii-

[@UmiZoomR]

seems practical

[@ShyStudios]

This thing probably has more powerful hardware than my computer did when sfm came out.

[@ShyStudios]

@Kalina Ann god bless. Would prob be a cost effective upgrade if thats the case.

No, thanks. Cool

Do SFM2

[@0scr_]

Wow, this might have some potential, if they somehow simplify UI without losing functionality.
Anyway, what was the video for hbomberguy?

[@MaxLebled_ALT]

I did a 2 to 3 minute segment in a video about RWBY
