Animating in general can have problems like this if you're not super aware of the program. Usually, its your fault, not the programs. Seem like in SFM, it's always the program's fault.
Guy 1: Welcome to the salty spitoon how tough are ya? Guy 2: how tough am i? I make tf2 animations guy 1: yeah so? Guy 2: using Source Film Maker Guy 1: err...right this way sorry to keep you waiting
I remember that it took somewhere about year for Valve to make a Meet the Pyro, cause most of the time animators had to deal with all those bugs and glitches in SFM
Oh Lazy, that's not the scariest thing that SFM can do. Picture this: you're adding a load of sound files to the project, but there's one sound file that is cursed, and it causes SFM to crash SO hard, that even looking at the sound channel on the project view makes SFM crash and shut down. Now that may sound like the worst thing to happen... until you remember you still have to do ALL THE LIP SYNCING AND YOU'RE SEVERAL HOURS INTO MAKING THE ANIMATION, AND THE WHOLE FILE IS CORRUPT! (The above is a true story, and has happened to me at least twice)
This is why I save in increments, sure it annoying to have multiple files that take up a lot of space, but I would rather deal with a minor annoyance than having to start all over again
i have tried this too, Luckily i "only" had to repeat around 5-10 hours of work, If it crashed at where I am now... Well, Suicide statistics need some love too right :kms:
And here I thought it was bad enough when sometimes a sound file refused to play no matter what. The problem is always the bitrate, but sometimes even after I change it it still doesn't work! This happened to me several times, and every time I change the bitrate, it still doesn't work, and after that I do not remember what I did. So every time, I have to trial and error my way until it works
9:30 I actually perfectly understood what that meant. Lights in Source have a soft, colored sprite to give the illusion of the glow when you look at a lightbulb like that and the console command is effectively removing every single instance of that sprite. In effect, the lights won't look as bright but no more GTX 3060 SUPRIM lightbulbs. "ent_fire" is the start of a command to modify an entity on the map, "env_lightglow" are the sprites that were mentioned and now the command is targeting them, and "kill" in this context will delete every entity that was targeted
I have so much respect for SFM animators it's unreal. One of the backbones of the tf2 community. I genuinely wonder how their inner monologue sounds like when they work.
"get that here. move this over here. slide a little bit. little more. dammit. ok where is- oh its over there. add this- wait. WTF, no, not like that. z...Z....ZZZZZ, F*** i meant Ctrl Z"
Tbf, that came from the source (no pun intended) they probably could've just fixed everything manually with all the right code and complete knowledge of file behaviors
As a programmer myself, the “ent_fire env_lightglow kill” is what gets me the most. “Ent” is usually used as an abbreviation for “entity” in debug consoles for games (entity being anything spawnable like characters, particles, weapons, etc.), and “env” is usually used as an abbreviation for”environment”. This means that the glow for *that particular light* was using the glow that the *fire particle* uses. That is a level of spaghetti code that I haven’t heard of in a LONG while.
As far as I'm aware, the "fire" part of ent_fire refers to firing commands to entities. The particular entity it targeted was the environmental light glow, and the command was kill. Far less cursed than you may think.
ent_fire is a command to fire an input on an entity, not related to fire. env_lightglow is the entity name for the glow effect entity, kill is the entity input that is being fired
That's not true, ent_fire just causes something to happen to what ever entity that you specify, in this case it's env_lightglow which is the sprite like light glow effect you get when looking right at a light, and kill, which means to destroy all instances of env_lightglow in the map. Like I said before, you being a programmer doesn't mean you have some inherent understanding of an api, especially because things like entities are specific to source and I can't recall any other system that uses entities in the same way. Using ent_fire or creating an ent_fire entity allows you to trigger something to happen to one, a class of, or all entities in the map to disable, enable, kill, and many other custom methods that one can create. So I can create an ent_fire entity In the map that activates from a logic entity that then does something to the map, for example, changing the spawns by disabling the first spawn area and enabling the second for payload maps. A lot of the scripting is actually put into physical space in the map for that reason, Lua allows for more nuanced modification and manipulation.
Honestly, I think lazypurple should just send an SFM video to valve where he doesn’t fix anything and he just leaves the glitches as is. Show valve how broken their system is.
9:30 If anybody is interested: ent_fire sends an output to an entity on the map. env_lightglow is the type of entity what he calls for. kill uh yeah just removes it. So translated it means: "Dude remove dat lightglow around the map."

I know I'm 4 years late but just want to say thank you, Lazy, for being the first person to mention those god-forsaken bleed through lights. I was dealing with them for years before this video and every time I would just sigh and change the camera angle to make sure they weren't in frame. There isn't really an easy way to describe them when you want to try and ask for help or google the fix, but with the advent of this video, I have somewhere I can go to back to and find the exact command I need to get rid of them; god bless you, you beautiful man!
I’m not sure if this helps, but on cp_Badlands (a fixed version I downloaded, not the one that crashes instantly), I had that problem. The problem persisted on the arena version of the map (or whichever version is in SFM and actually works), so there wasn’t anything wrong with the version I downloaded. I eventually figured out that it would only happen if the animation was higher than 49 FPS. I found a few different ways to “fix” it, but it never looked quite right. Finally, on a Steam forum thread, a helpful soul shared that you can fix it by setting the shutter speed to 0.001 (either by looking at the camera in the Element viewer or by overriding it when you’re rendering; I did the latter). Changing the shutter speed can mess up the motion blur, but motion blur doesn’t work when the frame rate is at 60 anyway (due to shutter speed limitations), so you aren’t sacrificing anything by simply disabling motion blur.
this is me with when i learn about any computer science, hence why im not electrical and computer engineering, just electrical, and even my ECE friends have this reaction as well to their CS classes

"Ent_fire enc_lightglow kill" Ent=entity Fire=light, valve is weird Env=event Lightglow=glow amount Kill=delete UPDATE Lightglow is glowing light env is environment fire is activate a supported output of an entity, credit to Vincent Swart
@@moneyman2256 that would explain a few things... Maybe if we somehow show fire to Valve's CEO it'll motivate them...? Its a joke obviously... put that flamethrower and that flare gun down you damn psycho.
Almost. Ent=entity indeed Fire=activate a supported output of an entity Env=environment Lightglow=glowing light Kill=delete indeed So ent_fire tells te console that the next commands will point to an entity and what output to give it, env_lightglow means that any environmental glowing from light sources should be targeted and kill tells the console to activate the kill-output to disable any env_lightglow entities. In normal TF2 lightglow produces a normal halo effect around light sources but because SFM is sp00ky it will cause that effect to flicker like mad.
He already has. Don't you remember the scene in the originally uploaded video where he builds a mini-sentry over the scout's corpse, where he forget to equip the Gunslinger in the SFM animation.

Actually, I spotted another mistake in 'How it FEELS to play Engineer': at the starting SFM scene, when you refill your metal with your own dispenser, the meter stays AT FULL.
I've been using SFM for over 5600 hours, and I've never heard of a particle whos color is changed by a controlpoint bone, and the fact that it doesn't even work as intended really goes to show how outdated the program is. I've heard of some weird stipulations to use certain objects and tools in SFM, but that one takes the cake. And oh my GOD can I relate to the sentry animation bit. The number of times I've had to manually animate a turning object because of the graph editor contorting the model to get it in the right position is absurd
Sometimes in SFM I've had models literally switch textures and bones for no apparent reason whatosever, and on restart I can't reproduce the same glitch. Spoooky
I know he was joking about the small mistake in the Engie video ruining our perception of it, but honestly after seeing THIS, I would not have cared if an entire scene had missing textures. I would've just went "Aw man dw about it, SFM is the Devil's pants, great video you hardworking, talented man"

There isn't really an easy way to describe them when you want to try and ask for help or google the fix, but with the advent of this video, I have somewhere I can go to back to and find the exact command I need to get rid of them; god bless you, you beautiful man!
I’m not sure if this helps, but on cp_Badlands (a fixed version I downloaded, not the one that crashes instantly), I had that problem. The problem persisted on the arena version of the map (or whichever version is in SFM and actually works), so there wasn’t anything wrong with the version I downloaded. I eventually figured out that it would only happen if the animation was higher than 49 FPS. I found a few different ways to “fix” it, but it never looked quite right. Finally, on a Steam forum thread, a helpful soul shared that you can fix it by setting the shutter speed to 0.001 (either by looking at the camera in the Element viewer or by overriding it when you’re rendering; I did the latter). Changing the shutter speed can mess up the motion blur, but motion blur doesn’t work when the frame rate is at 60 anyway (due to shutter speed limitations), so you aren’t sacrificing anything by simply disabling motion blur.

"Ent_fire enc_lightglow kill"
Ent=entity
Fire=light, valve is weird
Env=event
Lightglow=glow amount
Kill=delete
UPDATE Lightglow is glowing light env is environment fire is activate a supported output of an entity, credit to Vincent Swart
So is valve just pyro?
@@moneyman2256 that would explain a few things...
Maybe if we somehow show fire to Valve's CEO it'll motivate them...?
Its a joke obviously... put that flamethrower and that flare gun down you damn psycho.
@@retromastery7010 too late >:)
Almost.
Ent=entity indeed
Fire=activate a supported output of an entity
Env=environment
Lightglow=glowing light
Kill=delete indeed
So ent_fire tells te console that the next commands will point to an entity and what output to give it, env_lightglow means that any environmental glowing from light sources should be targeted and kill tells the console to activate the kill-output to disable any env_lightglow entities. In normal TF2 lightglow produces a normal halo effect around light sources but because SFM is sp00ky it will cause that effect to flicker like mad.

Spoooooky
you need a special editable model for that, someone recently added one to the workshop.
Dude stop your gonna give him a heart attack
I've been using SFM for over 5600 hours, and I've never heard of a particle whos color is changed by a controlpoint bone, and the fact that it doesn't even work as intended really goes to show how outdated the program is. I've heard of some weird stipulations to use certain objects and tools in SFM, but that one takes the cake.
And oh my GOD can I relate to the sentry animation bit. The number of times I've had to manually animate a turning object because of the graph editor contorting the model to get it in the right position is absurd
Sometimes in SFM I've had models literally switch textures and bones for no apparent reason whatosever, and on restart I can't reproduce the same glitch. Spoooky
