Pastaeater 7 Dec @ 6:02pm 
@jhonnyhawkeye can you like send a image where that is im a dumbass
Jonnyhawkeye 7 Dec @ 6:01pm 
it should be in one of your SMH settings.
Pastaeater 7 Dec @ 5:57pm 
how tf do i fix this
Pastaeater 7 Dec @ 5:57pm 
ok i now figured out why my stopmotion maker is broken i cant make keyframes normal on ragdolls but i can only make keyframes on ragdolls if i selected the ragdoll with my ragdoll mover tool
Pastaeater 7 Dec @ 5:51pm 
ok i figure out how to solve the ragdoll mover promblem i have to disablle collision but theres still the promblem i cant animate the ragdoll still
Pastaeater 7 Dec @ 5:38pm 
@jhonnyhawkeye where do i find the ragdoll phycics bone settingd

In the Ragdoll Mover page, I’ll make a discussion post to help troubleshoot this “ragdoll mover working half the time” issue :steamthumbsup:

It sounds like an addon conflict to me, but I can’t assume that without more info
Jonnyhawkeye 7 Dec @ 2:43pm 
also did you enable physics bones on ragdolls? that might be the problem
Jonnyhawkeye 7 Dec @ 2:42pm 
ragdoll mover works only half the time. ive had no problems with stop motion.
Pastaeater 7 Dec @ 1:31pm 
i cant use the ragdoll mover on the ragdolls nor i cant use the stopmotion animator on the ragdolls the props worked alright so i dont know what happened

@dim sum un, thanks!

I also want to mention that my version stems from a work-in-progress version [github.com] of Stop Motion Helper (SMH) that made some breaking changes to keyframes. Workshop SMH can’t use the saves from that one, and from extension, workshop SMH cannot load saves from my version. Hence, I wanted to keep my version self-contained from the workshop as there would be plenty of issues related to compatibility that doesn’t need to be discussed here

The source for the “Stop Motion Helper Improved” addon can be found in the Audio/sounds discussion post . I’ve linked to the reply where I mentioned “my fork” as the source code for that addon. There’s installation instructions there so you can use it immediately

@Alfredo IBR @reikerdude

I have asked the person who uploaded that addon to take it down.

I’ve decided against uploading the addon to the workshop because of multiple reasons. The foremost one is to respect the original roadmap of this addon. Many of the features on my version are already planned, but haven’t been implemented. Whether the features on my fork will be implemented in the official version is up to Penol; nonetheless, the upload policy for my fork is to not reupload it to the workshop as it would add unnecessary competition to this addon, despite the usefulness provided by those new features

To compensate for that, the fork stays on github. That doesn’t mean it’s not available; it’s just not accessible for the common Steam user (as in “finding it in the Steam Workshop” accessible). If you want to share “my fork”, just share the link to it (refer to the Audio/sounds discussion post)

@reikerdude it's really sad, is it possible that someone will restore it? I really need this addon, it makes working with bones much easier((
reikerdude 4 Dec @ 8:26pm 
@Alfredo IBR sadly it appears to have been removed form the workshop I came by looking for answers of its possible reupload or an answer to its disappearance
Alfredo IBR 4 Dec @ 3:04pm 
stop motion helper improved
Alfredo IBR 4 Dec @ 3:01pm 
yo, where did the other variation of this addon go, where you could animate the bones of regdolls?
Jimmis Atha 4 Dec @ 12:15am 
Is there an option to auto playback my animation when spawning? I need to import an animation to look like raising zombies from the ground when spawning them.!
Jackgamingbro2121 2 Dec @ 1:32pm 
i binded b as smh menu and n as smh playback (exactly as the video had said) and it didn't work.
Jonnyhawkeye 2 Dec @ 10:21am

кастєт 1 Dec @ 1:11pm

@PLAYERTIMEN @SethDaBoi2
I made a procedure to check for conflicting addons in the following post. This might help narrow down the addon that's causing your issues
PLAYERTIMEN 28 Nov @ 10:47pm 
Tried to look up command +smh_playback as if it were a variable.
+*Scrap*+ 28 Nov @ 3:53pm 
@Soldiertf2 Then why did you comment on it??
ScoutTF2 28 Nov @ 3:36pm

toy bonnie anims 21 Nov @ 10:48pm

Pafich_ 19 Nov @ 8:13am 
Why +smh_menu don't closing
SethDaBoi2 18 Nov @ 8:35am 
@Metabloxer it says "Tried to look up command +smh_menu as if it were a variable."
Wiese 17 Nov @ 3:14pm 
Did you really need to add fumo slop
dim sum un 15 Nov @ 1:50pm 
It's possible; SMH can control Advanced Camera 's FOV
Master Chimp 15 Nov @ 1:21pm 
I wish i could control the camera's FOV with this thing
☭paradoxer☭ 14 Nov @ 11:38am 
@Metabloxer, i don't know how really smooth animation like joacons, LOL
Metabloxer 13 Nov @ 10:28pm 
Seth, I believe you'll want to use "bindtoggle" on a hotkey instead of "bind", but I haven't tried it yet.
classic-zombie, I literally don't understand your questions.
☭paradoxer☭ 13 Nov @ 10:15am 
how to i can sfm
SethDaBoi2 11 Nov @ 10:47am 
is there a way to toggle the menu and the playback?
elierickson 6 Nov @ 6:13pm 
I started it and then i cant move could someone help
Sublevel 2 Nov @ 6:11am 
I <3 this magnificent addon
PenolAkushari  [author] 31 Oct @ 4:20pm 
doesn't sound like much. was the animation lasting for a lot of frames too? i don't recall running into issue like that, so all i can suggest is to make backups of your saves from data/smh folder inside gmod, sorry.

would you happen to remember what you were doing when the issue happened? being able to reproduce it on my end could help with finding a fix so that hopefully won't happen again
PyrosKZ 31 Oct @ 3:15pm 
only 6 ragdolls
PenolAkushari  [author] 31 Oct @ 3:10pm 
hm, that's weird. did your save have a lot of entities animated?
PyrosKZ 31 Oct @ 2:24pm 
I was working on an animation that ive been making for about three weeks and all of a sudden an error appeared and somehow one of my saved animations overwrote some of my other saves including the one I was currently working on;

[Stop Motion Helper] lua/smh/shared/saves.lua:33: SMH file load failure

2. Load - lua/smh/shared/saves.lua:33

Goobert 26 Oct @ 3:00pm 
does this let you replace animations for a single entity? if it doesn't, you should try to figure out how to add it.
dang 24 Oct @ 6:18pm

정말좋아요!!!!
PenolAkushari  [author] 21 Oct @ 12:15am 
left the server? in the sense of singleplayer one? rather weird that it won't load though onto a ragdoll. would you happen to have the save file?
