Stop Motion Helper 3.0 tutorial

- Опубликовано: 4 июл 2024
- very fast half assed going through basic functionality of the SMH that has been updated to the version 3.0
2023 Edit: Please do keep in mind that this is a video that goes through functions of SMH and not an actual animation tutorial, considering how many nuances there is in animation. For basics in animation, I'd suggest to search up "12 principles of animation" on youtube, that should give some ideas. And don't worry about examples being in 2D, 3D, Blender, SFM, GMod or whatever - some animation principles and tricks apply anywhere, it's just the different toolset you'd have to use.
2024 Edit: @joacons made an SMH tutorial that goes a bit more into what makes a good animation, check it out here. It doesn't completely cover all the tricks you can do though, so there's still some stuff to experiment with, btw • How to ACTUALLY ANIMAT...

SMH 3.0 is compatible with your saves from 2.0, however you'd need to save them in the new version if you would like to use the spawning function.
You also can access your saves by navigating to ...garrysmod\data\smh , so you can backup your saves or move them somewhere else so they won't clog up your save menu.
Prop effects can also be animated properly now.
smh_makejpeg and smh_makescreenshot optionally can take a number value, it will make it start rendering from the specified frame. smh_startatone will also be considered.
When you select an entity, it might not get highlighted with the halo, however it still would be properly selected and keyframes will be recorded on it. I don't quite know why halos stop working.

This update will make animation SO much more streamlined, thank you much!

They're both very viable options.
shameless semi-related reelism 2 plug
thanks for the update, its beautiful
im one of those who use external recorders, so i really appreciate that smooth playback option, thanks again!
this reminds me of how dasboschitt started the tutorial. you both have common stuff in this tutorial i must say
yeah i kind of based the starting part off his tutorial, to cover the basic old usage stuff first, and then get to the new stuff. it shouldn't be too illegal, should it?
@@PenolAkushari not illegal. it gives the vibes of how much of a connection there is. it's amazing.
@@E7ajamy after all, all progress is generally made while standing on the shoulders of giants
@@PenolAkushari ye. good work
Yeah I noticed that too.
You're awesome dude. I've been dying for an updated tutorial on SMH
well, i couldn't have put up the new version to the public if there wouldn't have been an explanation on how all the new stuff works. although probably there is a need in some "advanced" tutorials about various concepts to help people make animations better
Thanks for making the *best* animation tool for Gmod! I use it in basically every video and I love it!
well, the "making" part would be mostly by Winded, as he developed the thing since the start of times, as I kind of just took over in 2021 as I thought that I could help out and edited some stuffs. + Winded also did the total rewrite of SMH from whatever overengineered stuff it was, so it was easier to edit it, whereas functionally it remained the same!
No doubt this is going to Help tremendously
I've used this for years (even with the standalone physics recorder) but this new update is awesome.
thank you so much sir
It all makes sense now. Many thanks and keep up the good work 👍
Thanks! This helps so much! Great detail and easy to understand! Love this addon and video!
good stuff man, and nice job replying to all the comments, crazy dedication
Thanks for the help
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ this video helped me learn how to animate I’m so happy!!! Someday when I get really good I’ll make a video like this to help people too!
This is a very useful video, so it deserves more likes and subscribers
Amazing work!
THANK YOU for this wonderful tool! I'll admit eltorro64's animation tutorial led me here since he uses stop motion helper
as his main source of animation control along with ragdoll mover, I was just putting the finishing touches on my silly animation
when I accidentally clicked a piece of the animation helper tool window that softlocks me D:
luckily I had JUST saved & I went back here to figure out how to retrieve it & now I get that each individual save has ALL character animations that were done in that timeframe.
I was able to retrieve my saved animations successfully. I am a beginner animator but I've watched enough gmod & sfm animations to get push & pull. :D
nice, although do you happen to recall how you got yourself softlocked? is it that occasion where people open save/load/properties window and then open console, which makes it so console and smh windows overlap and don't let you do anything?
Thx for the amazing and simple guide 👌
thx bro that so helped me
Thanks for the tutorials
Hi! You're SMH tutorials are absolutely great! They cover just everything important, I'd say! Thank you very much!!! It helped me a lot using the SMH and to know the tricks of this awesome tool! Thanks a lot! 🤩 👏 👍 🏵
well, tutorials do mostly cover the basics of using the tool, however there's still some more techniques to making more advanced looking animations with it. if you'd like to look into that, when you feel like you're familiar with the tool, you can look up 12 principles of animation, there should be some videos on youtube about these, and you could try to apply some of the principles in your stuff. they still help quite a lot with making good looking animation, both 2D and 3D.
@@PenolAkushari Thank you! 💐
THANKS FOR THAT UPDATE!!!!
I still don't know how to use the t-pose tool, but I finally know how to use the animation tool. I'm excited so far.
really good tutorial! thanks!
Wow very good tutorial👌
as someone that has been makeing stuff with powerpoint I had a mental brake win I found this.
Thanks for the help!
Even though I have gotten SMH down I still come back here for fun.
this is a good tutorial, thank you.
great guide, thanks to the author
I didn't think it was this simple, i thought it was gonna be complicated.
Thanks, I just downloaded SMH and I'm bad at it, but I'm getting better!
I’m a beginner and this helps a lot
As soon as I realised how it’s done, I knew I’d be able to do this as I’ve done stupid stick figure animations in a similar way 😂
Thank you
THANKS HELLO FROM 2024❤
thanks!
Hey thanks for the video tuorial. Quick question i've key binded it to be like you have but i have to hold it down to use Stop motion helper. Is there any way i can get it to press once and keep it on screen?
Geez, this music are so high!
the spawn button is nice
THat is very helpful video. New version of smh tool is great. Great improvement in gmod animating workplace..
yo im having an stupid problem when i pose the face and record the keyframes it wont replay and when i go the the keyframe it is all the same but when i animate or record the poses it works
What ever you do do NOT bind ; to smh menu
It just locks you into the menu and you have to force shutdown Garry's mod to get out
Interesting
It wont let me make him do the stand pose, like it just doesnt show up
My animation didn't play back. I tried to press n and it doesn't work
idk if the tutorial is too fast for me to process but for some reason I am struggling with the whole “World Keyframes” thing
I just can’t get the release and press key things to work properly (all I want to do is use particle stuff for like explosions)
yeah those things are tough to wrap one's head around, as their functionality also may depend on whether the stuff it's meant to activate uses toggle mode or not. is your particle thing set to be toggleable or not?
you get a sub for that
POV: You want to make a GMOD arg
Been trying to get into animating in gmod and god it’s hard
good luck! technically you could look into 12 principlies of animation stuff, there's some videos about those in 2D stuff by Alan Becker, and you can apply some of them to any animations really.
I usually animate with this by recording my animation with a recording software, however there is always some really intense lag whenever I play my animation which makes recording it impossible.
Is there a fix for this?
how many entities did you happen to record with smh, and how many keyframes did you record? generally having a lot of stuff in the playback can cause fps drops.
@@PenolAkushari
2 ragdolls and less than 100 frames, about 10 keyframes
@@YTDani75 were you using projected lights/lamps? just in case
@@PenolAkushari
Nope nothing at all
@@YTDani75 does that happen on any map, or you're working on some specific one? and lags only occur when doing playback?
5:29 But how to rename a models/entity, to do not being confused of choosin' a same models?
you mean the part at 8:33 ?
Oh... I forgot it. I apologize for that... 😅
the thumbnail described me
for some reason when I try to face pose it works but the entity stays with that pose until I change the pose and it will not animate no idea what Im doing wrong
switch off faceposer or select "ground" with faceposer to make it delesect that entity - faceposer updates face of selected entities every tick so it overrides smh's setting that only does it once per frame switch
Thanks for your program. Could you tell me how to make hair animation?
generally with gmod you'll probably need some way to move nonphysical bones then, as long as a model that you use has bones for hair. ragdoll mover and advanced bone tool can do that, and for storing such animation in SMH you'd use "Nonphysical bones" modifier
don't think i've seen any other models handle hair in any different ways yet
Does it get inside of your computer the animation?
I have a question, what addon do you have installed to show you the prop on the right side?
that's from Nadmod Prop Protection addon
there is no stand pose for me what do i do?
whats that mod where u put the ragdoll into a stand pose?

I seem to have a wierd issue with smh_save preset in that I think my name prevents it from working. My name on steam contains the character "﷽" (Actually it's the only character in my name) and thus doesn't seem to make a save. If i change it to some temp name it saves fine, but even renaming that save file that has the temp name to the steam name I usually use doesn't remedy it either. Any way to fix this?
Seems like your OS doesn't support those characters? Or you can name them fine like that when browsing files? It could be related also to the characters that gmod's file writing system supports. If you want to use smh_quicksave, then you may need to rename your steam name to something else while you work for now, I'm afraid, but if you use usual saving throught save window, then that wouldn't be needed, although it will take longer, of course
So we still can't load animations on different maps? I don't remember if the creator said it's impossible or not so I wanted to check.
spawning function can help with that, although it can be a bit tricky to get things right
How do u make the Ragdoll stand up? Someone please help me
It's this tool, I probably would need to add it to the tutorial for the new version once it goes up. Won't be soon though steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=104576786&searchtext=standing+pose+tool
Quick question, whenever I'm trying to record a frame, I hit the record button and nothing happens, I have the right addons. I have the same keys binded, is there something I'm doing wrong?
just in case, have you selected an entity (ragdoll, prop) to record stuff onto in the first place? you do it by opening up smh menu and right clicking on an entity you want to record poses of, it should get highlighted by green halo, but sometimes it doesn't work due to some rendering stuff, but it still gets selected
@@PenolAkushari that work! Thank you!
I hit replay it didn't replay
Update:i didn't freeze all🙁🙁🙁
I was about to say how do you make the playback play the whole animation but I realized you're not supposed to press you're supposed to hold it sorry I'm a little slow
yeah people generally have some issues with it, so probably in the future there could be more options for these things like toggles and whatnot

@@PenolAkushari how do i animate face flexes because for some reason they dont work for me
is there a way to transfer keyframes between two same ragdolls. for example i did an shooting animation for a rebel and i need to do like 10 of them and doing that manually would be an huge pain
spawn offset function should help with that, although i dunno if hl2 guys all share same skeleton, i hope they do, so what you can do is record a guy, save that animation, use spawn offset thing and spawn him around some places you'd need, save that, and then try to apply those saved animations on other rebel/citizen ragdolls, if that makes sense. might not 100% work however
@@PenolAkushari thank you so much, btw i just gave an example with rebels, im going to use custom which have the same skeleton
@@gececi2317 ah, good then, that should work
so I bonded n to smh_playback and its sill not playing, can somebody help me?
What addon makes it to where you can put the pose to standing?
standing pose tool steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=104576786
How do you stop the face from going all weird like when I move it there’s nothing moving but when the face is like messed up and then when I go back it doesn’t change it’s permanently
i assume that's the thing that happens when you didn't initialize model's faceflexes, sounds scary, but all you do is right click a ragdoll with faceposer before recording it with SMH, so it will set some tf2 faceflexes to be 0.5, as otherwise SMH assumes that they are 0 by default, which messes stuff up. (stuff like jaw flexes on hwm tf2 guys)
Thanks
this is VERY cool, thank you! Would be awesome if there would be timestamps tho :D
happened to get around to do it, is there anything else that i should timestamp?
The face animation isn't working for me, is there a separate addon i need to have?
do you still have ragdoll's face selected with the faceposer when you play animation? if so, unselect it by switching off the toolgun or right click somewhere else, faceposer's settings override what smh puts up
@@PenolAkushari that worked! thanks!
when i try to open it it says its creating errors
what ragdoll mover war you useing?
an older version, i got on to make updated one shortly after finishing up this smh thing, as older ragdoll mover pissed me off a bit
if i cant use bindtoggle then am i just forced to hold it down
yeah, primarily that's how commands with + work. you can input it manually into console and then press the bind to let go of the menu or playback, however i feel like that would be awkward to do all the time

Great tutorial, although I don't think you covered copying and pasting keyframes. How do I do that?
1:42 , you only can copy existing stuff on currently selected entity, as there's no keyframe "copy-paste" between different entities.

i put in my bindings but when i press the key it says "unknown command +smh_menu unknown command -smh_menu" and "unknown command +smh_playback unknown command -smh_playback" and idk what to do
steam workshop didn't happen to mount the addon correctly. i recall someone disabling all their addons except for smh and then it started to work, after what all the addons can be enabled back up with no issue
i haves an issue, i cant select any ragdolls, no matter how many times i right click them
that's generally a rendering thing, green outline doesn't appear but thing still gets selected, try recording it and it should work
hey, i'm back. i have a problem with the playback part of SFM. When i hold the key binded to this command, the frame drop will drop really. Yet my device can consistently run GMOD around 60 FPS. The frame rate does not drops when i mess with the timeline manually. Am i the only one having such problem?
would you happen to have freeze all disabled? also how many keyframes do you have recorded for the playback? i fucked up greatly with optimizing the thing, for now i could suggest enabling freeze all as that should lower the calculations the thing would need to do so it won't need to determine which physbones of ragdoll were frozen or no
@@PenolAkushari Yup! Freeze all made it a lot smoother! Thanks for your great addon, pal. If I ever happens to upload some Gmod animations on my channel, it's all thanks to you!
Why won’t it work? My animation doesn’t play. I got it to play once. This tutorial is very helpful tho!
how are you trying to play it, just in case? you did record some frames for entities too? is your playhead at the start of the animation, as playback starts from playhead's position and if you have a lot of frames in framecount, it may be stuck there for a bit as it'll go through empty frames too
so gmod thinks its an unknown command when i bind the +smh_menu to a key, am i doing something wrong, what can i do?
that generally seems to be an issue due to gmod mounting stuff from workshop weirdly. try disabling other addons and see whether it'll start working then
I have question when i record a keyframe it doesnt show up how do i fix it??
have you selected an entity to record keyframes onto in the first place? without stuff to record onto, it will not record anything at all
Yo i need your help.
How do i make a bullet or the smoke around the gun appear and disapear ?
(They are not changeable with color and texture)
generally for particles i've seen people move away particle emitter stuff out of the view with 2 frames that do not have gap between them, so thing you want to hide moves instantly away from view (unless you have smooth playback which may make it a bit weird)
@@PenolAkushari thx
Anyone know if the Gmod VR or even Xbox Kinect makes it easier to animate with stop motion helper??
nope, kinect would probably be a pain to polish up, no idea about VR. but probably will just make stuff harder. however, nothing stops you from trying. i guess kinect stuff can be recorded with physics recorder
which other addons do you use? like the ragdoll mover
there's quite a bunch. out of "essential" stuff, ragdoll mover, standing pose tool and physgun undo are quite a must have, i'd say, and they all are made by Winded. as for the quick selection wheel thing, this edition of radial menu ( steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=265292490&searchtext=radial+menu ), would need some messing around with setting up binds and the tools you want to use yourself, you also can assign console commands to it, like physgun undo, very handy.
if you're dealing with tf2 guys or the like, there's tf2 paint to color some of the specific cosmetic items in specific tf2 colors, and also easy bonemerge tool to easily attach cosmetics to the guys, although it only works properly if the cosmetic was meant to be on the guy you're merging it to, as using scout's cosmetic on heavy might not quite work.
@@PenolAkushari could you link the mods you said? i would need some of them
@@veracc technically all the things should be up on workshop, they will probably come up as first results if you search for them
can anyone help me? my SMH menu is viewing in chinese, but i have no idea what these symbols mean :,)
do i have to really hold the binded button for this menu? bs
i tried doing frames with scout using ragdoll mover but it still doesnt play after i recorded it. and im on a laprop. how the fuck am i gonna be able to use a stopmotionhelper that can do 2 shits with a scout.
When i press the playback butten N it wont play but i binded it the way it was suppose to pls help
does console write anything when you try to use the bind? keep in mind that for animation to play you have to hold down the key
i need to hold down the keys to keep the menu open how do i turn that off?
no way around that, sadly. generally putting +smh_menu in console would keep it up, until -smh_menu command is given.
due to how source works with commands with + sign, once you press a bind it will call +smh_menu, for example, and on release it'll call -smh_menu that will close it. some people tried using bindtoggle stuff to no avail. perhaps i could look into making a separate console command for that
how to make a fighting animation like the one at 0:03?
that would require knowing quite a bunch of stuff, posing, fight choreography, timing and all that stuff. if you're just starting off, i'd suggest to start with the basics, you could check out 12 principles of animation which go through some concepts that could be applied to any animation to make it look a bit better, and then try to apply some of those to your stuff. you also could use some reference, like try to animate some stuff like walking from one of those videos where a person walks on youtube, although also do think about how exactly does the stuff move in your reference as to be capable to reproduce some of that stuff you did, and then also make some changes to achieve some sort of animation style that you desire, like cartoony stuff is quite keen on exaggerated movements.
It says it’s an unknown command what do I do
When I change the face for the animation , it doesn’t work ,it just stay as the same face I put
did you happen to unselect the ragdoll with the faceposer when playing the animation?
@@PenolAkushari nope ,but now I realized like few mins ago

@@babyboo-ek5qn You do type them in as +smh_menu and +smh_playback, right? Does anything pop up in console when you type in smh in general, like smh_record or so?

@@PenolAkushari So the “Turn off some addons” idea has worked! Thanks for that suggestion, or I wouldn’t have known.
@@babyboo-ek5qn Yeah gmod workshop sometimes does that. If you really want some of those addons, you can just find smh in its workshop folder and unpack its .gma and put it into gmod's addons folder, then it should work I think without any issues with whatever addons you'd enable

shrug. perhaps it's something my texture proxies could handle, but that's not certain
@@PenolAkushari Alright, thank you. 👍
idk why but it wont work for me i did everything and the keybinds wont work at all
probably steam workshop messed up and didn't mount the addon correctly. try to disable all other addons you have through addon menu in gmod and check if SMH will work if it's the only thing enabled. generally that seemed to help some people, although don't think it will be a 100% fix. if SMH will work after that, it should work properly once you enable other addons i think, as it's not inherently a conflict thing
Hello Creator I’m Currently Using Your System/Tool And It’s Working Perfectly, but, There’s a problem basically Every Time I Input The Code to Preview My Animation It Doesn’t Work And Yes I Do Input The + Sign and Input It In The Console.
Please How Do I Fix It?
well, did you have some animation recorded there to play in the first place, and was the playhead put at the beginning of it so it'll play from there? also make sure that don't animate physbones option is turned off, or else ragdolls won't play their animations
@@PenolAkushari Oh No!
I’m Sorry For Wasting Your Time I Accidentally Forgot To Input The Command For The Playback [bind n +smh_playback] Thanks For The Response.
Thanks.
ah, nice now that's solved, probably i should've started with asking whether the bind was done correctly
how do i loop animation to play over and over again?
if you're doing a video recording, then holding down +smh_playback bind will keep repeating whole animation.
otherwise you also can use shift+left click to select multiple keyframes that you need and copy them forward to make that animation repeat, if that makes sense
