What I'm workin on now (1/2)
🕑 Added 2020-12-07 05:38:24 +0000 UTCI was feeling like doing something totally different, so on and off, over the course of a few months, I've been porting over TF2 stuff into Blender. It was so long ago I forgot how I got the map in, but I converted koth_nucleus into an SMD, but the method didn't keep the textures (more specifically the UV maps), so I've been manually adding the textures back in.
If you look at the other pictures, I've just been looking at the material names(1), finding the VTFs using GCFScape(2), exporting them using VTFEdit(3), adding it to the material in Blender(4), looking at the original in SFM(5) and manually UV unwrapping(6). I need to find and decompile the world props like the computers, chairs and railings as well, but at least those were UV unwrapped when I used Crowbar to decompile them. The hardest part of that is finding what the props are called, I find those by just looking through all the props you can add in SFM. Takes a long time but it's pretty relaxing, I put on Simpleflips playing Desert Bus or something.
The video itself is just gonna be a little comedy skit thing, Demoman setting up sticky traps and people keep falling for it. I had a lot of terrible anime meme ideas that I'd probably put in a separate sequel video or something.
Something that's even more theoretical, I was also considering making a video essay / storytime animation thing talking about my introduction to fighting games, and how they make more sense than I thought they would. Stuff like how quarter circle back kick is often a projectile invincible dash, a shoriyuken input is almost always an anti-air attack, you basically know all you need to know once you play Ryu for like an hour. Writing scripts is hard though, it ended up spiraling off into a rant about smash bros for far too long. I'd have to do some sort of voiceover for that, and if ya didn't know, my pronouns are in a bit of a đŸ¤”state right now, so that, uh, complicates things...
I was also working on moonbase songs, as usual, but I can only take so much repetitious work, that's why I took this break. Those are in the next post, I don't know how to embed audio into an image post.
