I'm glad you enjoy the video though it is an older video from many years ago. The method should still work but I'm sure the qc code has been changed so it would be best to use a newer mod as a reference for your qc.

Good video but I have a problem, the zoey one doesn´t have the reference but the rochelle mod does, but in the file of animations of zoey there are three SMD extra files named a_proportions, a_proportions_corrective_animation and reference

I would just leave it as is since its pretty much a tag that lets the game know that section is the body and can be swapped with other bodies under the same tag. (I think)
That may mean that your qc did not compile correctly or that perhaps you are looking at the wrong folder since survivors and survivor arms are placed in different folders, also make sure the compiler is set to l4d2. I hope that helped.
@@MonkeyRebel117 Can I get in contact with you through discord so I can show you it directly, I was able to correctly compile the survivor folder but not the arms, my discord is "Jigsaw_#0189" also thanks for helping me out

I imagine you have the code like this instead than? } $bodygroup "CHARACTER HEAD" { studio "CHARACTER HEAD.smd" blank } $bodygroup "CHARACTER TORSO" { studio "CHARACTER TORSO.smd" blank If so than its pretty much the same thing but usually body group is used to combine the models together like heads to upperbodies and lowerbodies. (Well I'm Guessing) So if you have multiple smd files than just copy and paste the body groups sections over the $model line segment
Hey me again. So I have a quick question. So I'm kinda suck at the compiling part. Every time I try to compile the .qc file I always get a small error saying, " ERROR: c:\users\deejr\desktop\leon-nick\models\survivors\decompiled_nick\survivor_gambler.qc(11): - bad command flexfile. ERROR: Aborted Processing on 'survivors/survivor_gambler.mdl'" Then it says its finished but, every time I go to open up the file nothing shows up.. I'm so close lol. Thanks in advance.
Alright sounds like its looking for a flex file, so something like a head animation or eye movement, in the code. Make sure to get rid of all the flex files lines in the qc if you don't know how to use them. (I don't know how to use them properly) An example of a flex line would be like this: flexfile "survivor_teenangst.vta" { defaultflex frame 0 flex "frame01" frame 1 or anything with flexcontroller in it Remember these are just examples of codes involving flex files, so they may look different but delete them and similar ones. PS. Make sure to make backups of orginal qcs just incase something just goes wrong.
Ahh great it worked! Now the only problem i'm getting now is that the model is showing up in game, but now the textures aren't applying to the model. :/ ... I did what you said in the video and copied the texture files and made sure to link the right files in the .qc to find, but I keep getting the black and purple textures. Guessing i'm doing something wrong. I'm litterally sooo close lol. Mind if I add you on steam or if you have any other platform like Twitter etc. I can add you on? I don't mean to flood your comment section haha. Thanks in advance!
if you are talking about the line of code than yea it can work ya just gotta change the name to whatever ya want since you are just saying that the model that you are using is called "this" but the actual file is called "this.smd"
Sorry for the late reply, Is this add-on already made and you want to simply change the character to another survivor or do you want to know how to do it form scratch? If you want faster feed back go ahead and look me up on TWITTER or STEAM I get notifications on my phone when I get messages there.
+MintyMiku Do you know how to use 3DS MAX or BLENDER? I should also mention that 3DS MAX has a program that will give you three years free and not charge you when it ends if your a student. BLENDER is a free program regardless.
If its an already existing add-on that has the models you need than you can download it and decompile the files from it. Then download an already existing mod replacement for the one thing you want to replace and decompile that as well to get the raw qc code for it. Then by theory you should be able to place the raw smds for the model you want into the new mod folder you're making along with the new qc code that you would edit to have the right materials and model paths in it. Remember to always make a copy folder that you will use as a test folder so you don't accidentally alter the raw file you are using as reference.

Hello MonkeyRebel117,How to Port a Gun From Another Game or Item from Another Game to your left 4 dead 2 Example.Porting Halo Sniper to Left 4 Dead 2 Sniper without getting their Animation and no invisible Hand I really Getting Mad that i porting a Gun it's Working in Left 4 Dead 2 but it's invisivle Please Help
Quick question. Can this be applied with just animations? Say I have a Rochelle model and it is using the basic Rochelle animations and I want to replace her animations with Zoey's. Can I use this method for that?
It should be possible but you will lose the face animations unless you properly attached the VTA file and raw SMD files from Rochelle you want to use to replace the animations of Rochelle to zoeys. just make sure you use the raw qc code as a base for Rochelle since it has all the info already there. You just need to add the proper code in order to giver her the animations.
This method is for the game L4D2 that contains survivors from both available maps in L4D and L4D2 but if you only own the base game for L4D1 than the method will be different.
Well this is an older guide so perhaps some of the qc code was changed over time. Also I do know that Zoey replacements tend to t pose a lot and I don't know if it's because there are so many qc versions of her.
Please delete this video. It is lacking very important information required to make animations work in online games. I've just had someone ask me for help as to why their mod doesn't work properly. After watching the same tutorial that they had watched, i understand why its broken.
I posted a comment here earlier but I did some revisions to make sure things are working properly. I use the same version of Crowbar that you use in this video, I configured everything in both the program and in the desired QC I intend to compile. When I clicked compile I got this: Compiling with Crowbar 0.29.0.0: "I:\Steam\steamapps\common\Left 4 Dead 2\left4dead2\addons\New folder\New folder\thorne\survivor_mechanic.qc" ...

I have no idea what the problem might be because I configured the QC accordingly and what I hoped to fix this situation didn't work. The model in question have no face flexes but I don't understand when it says there are no sequences. Edit: never mind, I think I figured it out
@@MonkeyRebel117 Thankfully the model works. The only problem I have now is that one part has missing textures which makes no sense because it's a killing floor 1 model. All of the VMF files are configured accordingly, it's just a singular like of code for the textures to work but I can't figure out what the problem is. The part in question that's missing textures is the right eye.
@BasilBonehead alright here I recommend you look at the progress Luke how you sent it before and look at the material names it's looking g for and make sure it's calling for the proper material in the proper folder.

Well this is an older guide so perhaps some of the qc code was changed over time. Also I do know that Zoey replacements tend to t pose a lot and I don't know if it's because there are so many qc versions of her.
@@MonkeyRebel117 I despise my life. I should end it.
@@larrypinhead7572 Nope that's not the right way to think. Suicide is never the answer. There are help lines available.
Please delete this video. It is lacking very important information required to make animations work in online games.
I've just had someone ask me for help as to why their mod doesn't work properly. After watching the same tutorial that they had watched, i understand why its broken.
You know this video upload 5 years ago and im not sure this chanel still alive or not
But i like your Mod btw
pls make a tutorial mrfunreal😢
I posted a comment here earlier but I did some revisions to make sure things are working properly. I use the same version of Crowbar that you use in this video, I configured everything in both the program and in the desired QC I intend to compile. When I clicked compile I got this:

I have no idea what the problem might be because I configured the QC accordingly and what I hoped to fix this situation didn't work. The model in question have no face flexes but I don't understand when it says there are no sequences.
Edit: never mind, I think I figured it out
@@BasilBonehead oh nice! I hope you did figure it out!
@@MonkeyRebel117 Thankfully the model works. The only problem I have now is that one part has missing textures which makes no sense because it's a killing floor 1 model. All of the VMF files are configured accordingly, it's just a singular like of code for the textures to work but I can't figure out what the problem is. The part in question that's missing textures is the right eye.
@BasilBonehead ah interesting, I wonder if it's looking for a specific material name. I know source eyes that move have a specific material name.
@@MonkeyRebel117 What's weird is that killing floor models don't have that, the eyes don't move. It's static.
@BasilBonehead alright here I recommend you look at the progress Luke how you sent it before and look at the material names it's looking g for and make sure it's calling for the proper material in the proper folder.
