Would be cool if you could set the "Engine Path" in the Add-on settings and dont have to set it every time

need help with the "error could not execute studiomdl" issue

Need some help, getting .py errors when I try to export. Have not been able to find a tutorial/instructions for exporting a model to sfm. On blender version 4.1.1.

I think I am having trouble importing a character model I made into SFM and as a PM + NPC for GMod, yes it does have 18-19 bodygroups and has a lot of shape keys.

@talesyoung Blender Source Tools can export it's model into a format that any source 1 game can recognize. After that, it's the game's executable that "imports" it into the game. You basically go Blender > SMD (Blender Source Tools) > Game Asset (studiomdl,exe).

help me the export thing is just a bar its completely empty

HEY uh if you join the group can you import blender models into like gmod and sfm just wonderin

Uhhh, any blender source tools 3.3 in the Blender 3

im using blender 3.5.1

can you make blender scorce tools 3.5.1

im editing an qc file which i decompiled from an mdl file using crowbar, however im a little confused on how to save the qc file and i can replace the decompiled qc file with a new one, any help?

Those are all of the import options.

uhhh the source tools are broken...????? like i can only import .smd, .vta, .dmx and .qc files help where are the other import options???

how can i import source engine models to Blender? im learning to make some l4d2 mods

I tried to rejoin the group to update my discussion post but; I fixed my problem, the issue was the body segments on my physics model werent 100% red apparently, I missed a few spots. After this it worked perfectly. Thanks for trying to help regardless Artfunkel; that discussion post can be solved or closed or whatever

Can I make a discussion? I am having an issue with importing that might require some back and forth

I have no idea what you mean. Please try again to make a discussion and describe your idea in more detail.

That too with whatever actions you have defined on your model already taking priority.

I wanted to try and add a discussion topic but it won’t let me. So I ask this.
Would it be possible to automate the “Proportion Trick” with Blender Source Tools in the future? Such that you’d import a .mdl to use its animation set, and make Blender export your model with all the existing animations angle changes only to your model’s skeleton. Or supply a folder of decompiled smd’s from that .mdl include.

Garry's Mod will be recognised as an engine branch in the next release. Until then, just leave that field blank.

Jem, same dude, i've been trying for 1 day searching for an answer, but couldn't find anything. Maybe try unistalling gmod?

I cannot export as smd because the engine path of Garry's Mod is an error and doesn't detect it. I've already tried changing blender versions and still nothing. I can confirm I have the "studiomdl.exe" so why is this issue happening???

does anyone know how to Import the MDL models PLZ

I am getting this error in the console when trying to compile a qc

qdir: "c:\program files\blender foundation\blender 2.93\"
gamedir: "D:\Idk help\steamapps\common\SourceFilmmaker\game\tf\"
g_path: "*"

can you add the feature to export the qc and not just the smds

I'm having trouble with exporting a cosmetic I've created for TF2. It seems to export fine, however when I try to preview my item a page shows up saying the build has failed, and at the end of a long list it says:

ERROR: unknown attachment link 'bip_head'
ERROR: Aborted Processing on 'workshop/player/items/medic/item_preview/item_preview.mdl'
CTargetMDL::Compile Failed - c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\team fortress 2\tf\models\workshop\player\items\medic\item_preview\item_preview.mdl
WARNING: CTargetZIP::Compile - Target 1 Compile Failed

Other people have seemed to run into this same problem but I don't know if anyone has figured it out yet. Does anyone else know what this means?

can someone tell me why everytime i try to export my model to either DMX or SMD, it says

"WARNING: 1042 verts on "*body part name*" have over 3 weight links. Source does not support this!"

the model is ported from BO:CW if it is of any help.

when i import a qc file into blender, how come it always says python traceback error and doesn't get in

Where can i get the blender source tools for 2.79?

Does anyone know how to export a blender model as a "vmf" file?

He meant the surface of the faces of the model not normal map. https://all3dp.com/2/blender-recalculate-normals-simply-explained/

I do not have normal maps for my materials

most likely inverted normals

someone can help me?
