Killing Floor Fan Films - Help

[QuickSilver88X]

Hey guys, im new to these forums but im not sure where else to ask for help.

Im in the process of making a series of short KF films, one has been done already and is on youtube but ive ran into some trouble on the animations side of the post production for the rest...

Ive managed to get the models from KF but i cant get the animations to use within 3ds max, the fleshpounder model i used in my first film used Half Life animations as someone else had rigged the model to the smd skeleton.

Now, im not too great with 3d animating or rigging, so i have no idea where to start with rigging the rest of the models to smd skeletons or preferably getting the original KF animations for each specimen to use in Max.

If anyone could give me a bit of advice or if you want to help with the process then it would be much appreciated. Im not here to advertise the films or anything, i genuinely need some help from someone who knows their way about this kinda thing.

Thanks

I can tell you've never been to London, trying to film something there without people waling around in your shot is next to impossible.

Yeah...some parts of London, central especially could have like 200 people in one street.

I suppose i could use photos of London with no people in them, then just greenscreen actors onto it, but it'd probably look too fake and take way too much time to do.

Wow dude, that was amazing!
I have no idea how on earth to get anything out of .ukx files though.
There are many ways of turning your models and animations into .ukx files but if you want to get them out of those, you're **** out of luck it seems.

Hey that was half-dead in the credits! What does Tripwire think of this video? *hint hint.... Yosh or Wilsonam!

 

[QuickSilver88X]

Thanks mate!
I guess if no-one knows or can help me ill have to try and rig them to regular bipeds or something, bit of a shame though, the animations are really great in KF.

Oh my Jesus. This is... The best Killing Floor video to date. I'm going to cry out of happiness

 

[QuickSilver88X]

Thanks guys, im glad you all approve of it lol.

I suppose ill have to rig the models with basic bipeds and use free mocap stuff on the net or something if no-one knows how and even if you can get the animations from KF... Bit of a pain though being as those animations in the game are really quite good.

If anyone here knows how to rig the models to the valve bipeds then that should work too, i have no idea about that either, but i know how to import the smd animations from half life into max.

By the way, if anyone knows how I could get in touch with Half-Dead that would be good, being as it was his rigged fleshpounder model i used from garrysmod in the first film.

Just saw the video. Amazing work! Trying to get a hold of people from the office to watch it now.

Ok, getting word back that we "might" be able to help you out here with rigs. Trying to contact some people higher up.
