all of this was actually extremely helpful! especially with the motion blur options that I never actually got the hang of for a while. thanks alot man!
Idk what parts of the tutorial that did this but after doing this tutorial, my rendering time reduces from 7 hour to 30 minutes like how dude, that's just helping me so much man thank you
Thank you so much that motion blur trick helped me so much I never realized how bad it looked, compare an animation of mine to my latest one and there’s a huge difference thanks!
Really helpful tutorial, one thing about rendering in 1080 through launch options tho, People with a less powerful PC might not be able to do it because it decreases performance and adds more render time. What I do is render in 720p and then using an editor I render in 1080. I never knew about show focal plane though, makes it a lot easier to mess with focal distance. All In all amazing tutorial man, I've learned some really cool things from this.
Upscaling isn't very effective. Instead of making something sharper and more clear, it will make it blurrier. I would animate in 720p, and just render overnight in 1080p. I'm glad you found my tutorial helpful!
next video should be about lighting tips and also, if you want, a way to not have compression when exporting videos on youtube, that would be quite helpful

i render it to AVI. file then i edit it in a video editor then after i did it i export it to a avi file the edited video and it jsut goes to 1 MB then i dlete the rendererd one and then i save myself some space i uplaod the video then i delete all the files i made to uplaod it after its uploaded
Help! When I up the samples, it doesn’t change anything. The volumetric lighting won’t change it still has that annoying shadow thing when you put through like a Freddy mask Edit: nvm I found out why I fixed it
Wow thanks! But I have a question please? I am a beginner FNAF animator and I try to change the pupil size of my models by typing *r_eyesize* in commands, but it doesn’t work. How do I fix this ? Thank you.
My pc is a low end pc so I can't use motion blur or stuff like that but my main problem is the model movements all my movements always looks robotic even when I try not to do it that way it just happens and I kndw my pc doesn't cause them to look blocky but it does limit what I can do on sfm I can't have more than 25 models in a shot and it won't let me have more that 8 lights at a time I dunno if that's how it usually is could anyone give me some tips on how to make my movement look more natural and less blocky and robotic
40 gigs? You are for sure fine ram wise. Unfortunately, there is no way to tell how good a gpu is based on age, but there is no harm in giving it a try
SFM renders TGAs faster than PNGs, but TGAs have a larger file size. It's your preference weather you care more about speed or file size. Also TGAs are far less compatible.
So, if you want to use motion blur, 128 DOV samples, and 64 motion blur samples, what should be your shutterspeed? (also, adding 64 motion blur samples is the way to add motion blur, right?)
Usually you would decide how much samples you want to use based on your shutter speed, since shutter speed decides how much blur there will be. 64 samples works with shutter speed above 0.004, and I would probably use 0.007 shutter speed.

thank you sooo much for all of this, also ur animations are amazing !

Ik I’m late to this but it’s very helpful, learned lots of things I didn’t know, hope to put them to use.
Me watching sfm tutorials instead of going to sleep knowing full well I use a diffrent software
These were some very helpful tips thanks
Thank you so much for the tips it help me a lot🙏 i use sfm since 5 months so idk how i really use this but thanks again🙏
Thanks for this amazing tutorial :)
You actually really helped me I had problems with quality and what the best render setting are thx for the tips

Yeah sorry about the audio, I wish I could increase the volume after it was uploaded, but RUclips discontinued that. I hope you're okay lol

can you do a tutorial on how to get TARGA for formatting?
nice video
nice video!
can u do a sfm tutorial for distorting lights? thx
I love u..
Thx channel name here, now i still dont know what to make in sfm😊
yes
What happened to the two minute Five nights at Freddy’s song that song is on a different channel now but it’s not on your channel
Jaze cinema purchased the video, and now it's on his channel
Let’s gooo
If we are keeping shutter speed at 0.003 can it still work with 60fps?
but how do you make eyes glow for animation and not just a poster??
What computer do run on your sfm? Because my sucks
"Qwally"
2:30 you shouldve been a bit more clear on this part because i thought it was for both motion blur and depth of field samples
hey can you make a vid how to pose and move their arms cuz i dunno how ):

Ok thx
i dont know why i watched this i dont even use sfm to animate, but if i did use sfm i would def not know that lol
i render it to AVI. file then i edit it in a video editor then after i did it i export it to a avi file the edited video and it jsut goes to 1 MB then i dlete the rendererd one and then i save myself some space i uplaod the video then i delete all the files i made to uplaod it after its uploaded
If your video file is only 1 mb, your compression must be ridiculous. That's about the size of a single image file
@@channelnamehere9085 yes that video editor turns the file into 1mb idk why jsut 1mb doe LOL im saving me GBS of space
are MOVs good rendering platform?
Are animation helpers just for these particular models? Because i've never seen these before with anything else
How did you get into quick access?
I hace a bug, directx 9 shader model higher end graphics Something like that
How do i control the light?
movments next time?
How do you do REAL TIME floor reflections? I've seen some shots in the video that has it.
like how i do my movements?
When I finish rendering a poster, the lights are not the same and it is grainy?
but how do i export in TGA, i mean i know how to export but i dont have the option to export in TGA, how do i get this TGA ?
One question what file donyou recommend to render when you export it as a movie not a image sequence?
Pls answer tis question,
Can I run SFM with a computer with 4 gigabytes of ram and an Pentium?
Help! When I up the samples, it doesn’t change anything. The volumetric lighting won’t change it still has that annoying shadow thing when you put through like a Freddy mask
Edit: nvm I found out why I fixed it
I make poster and images easily but the animation part it's tough i just watch videos and try but 😕
So I tried the 1024 DOP and the volumetric light still was choppy do you know how to fix this?
what was your maximum distance?
what the hell is shutter speed ?
Yo!!!!!!!!
What are your pc specs?
what does the launch options say there? 5:28
