If I know I'm not using Overwatch models because this is a Warhammer animation, I can just turn off the Overwatch folder and SFM won't try to index or load them).Ĥ) You can't use the mod filter in the SFM search to anything like the same degree.
It needs to be resolved by disabling content folders that aren't currently being used for a project using the SDK*, but if everything is just in usermod, there is no way to resolve this error - a) it's the master folder and cannot be disabled in the index and b) the content will be so poorly organised you can't disable specific parts of it anyway. If it tries to index too much content (as your installation naturally grows), it will crash with an CUtIRBTree error. Putting things in here can override important SFM files (particularly if the files are from other Source games, which should *definitely* be put in their own mod).ģ) Indexing overflows. Installing the wrong thing in here can overwrite important SFM files.Ģ) It's the master folder (and cannot be reorganised in the search paths).
Could you elaborate for me? All I've been doing is throwing stuff in usermod The three serious issues are:ġ) It's a critical folder. Originally posted by OhIDunnoRick:Interesting point on the usermod folder. Could you elaborate for me? All I've been doing is throwing stuff in usermod If the folder you've installed to is a new one, you'll need to right-click Source FilmMaker in your Steam library, choose "Launch SDK", click "Edit Search Paths For Selected Mod", and tick the box for "customstuff" on the list. Now copy those folders into your -/SourceFilmmaker/game/customstuff/ folder. (Not all of these folders will be in all downloads).
7z files) and navigate through it until you have a collection of folders called things like "maps", "models", "materials", "sounds", "scripts" and the like.
#Source filmmaker models download#
Now you've got a "customstuff" folder, unzip your download (you will need a program like 7zip to unzip. In this example, we'll assume that "customstuff" is the new folder's name.
#Source filmmaker models install#
(Obviously, you don't need to make a new folder every time, but the general rule is to not install to any of SFM's default folders except if specifically updating content extracted from the game the folder is for). For example - "Bioshock", "Tomb Raider", "Overwatch", "Warhammer", etc. You can call it whatever you want, although being descriptive and well organised is a good idea. Now navigate into the "game" folder, and make a new folder. A File Explorer window should now open inside of Source FilmMaker's installation directory. Right-click Source FilmMaker in your Steam library (in the "Installed" or "Software" tab), and choose "Properties" > "Local Files" > "Browse Local Files.". Lots of people will tell you to install to usermod, but this is a bad idea for several reasons you probably won't want to hear all the details of, so I'll just suffice to say it can cause a lot of problems, either immediately or in the long run. Originally posted by That festive guy in a black hood:And once I download SFMlab files do I need to do anything convoluted to get it to work?Correctly installing custom content to SFM is more complex than lazily installing it, but it's a good idea to do it properly, as it can save you a lot of trouble in the long run.
