[S2FM] SCP: Saferoom

A lone MTF agent fights his way across a site of the SCP Foundation, in a desperate gamble to make it to the saferoom. Really, more an excuse to animate some SCP related "tactical" action scenes in SFM/S2FM. Those are fun to animate.
Yes, those are Half-Life 1 HECU models I am using for the enemy forces. No, I couldn't get one from any GoIs hostile to the SCP Foundation, like GOC or Scarlet King or any of that stuff. I tried. Retexturing the models to something more SCP-like is something I'll explore in future SCP animations.
No, I don't know whether I'll go back to SFM for a while. Animations in S2FM (especially realistic ones) are less time-consuming. This video took 150 hours in S2FM but could have taken 190-200 in SFM. Though the TF2 resources in S2FM are far fewer, so I'll have to find a way to import my kit. Or stick with SCP animations until someone imports the proper files into S2FM.
Also, action is really fun to make, even though it takes a lot longer.
SCP: Saferoom is loosely based on SCP-4856 by MaliceAForeThought, who brought it to my attention a long time ago and drilled a hole in my mind since.
scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-4856
Of course, most of the animation isn't based on any single SCP, but a series of random tales involving MTFs I have read over the last 7 or so years. SCP: Saferoom is based on an old video that Callegos made about Solid Snake fighting guys to the beat of Blue Monday, but I think he took it down or something.
So, my first incursion into Source 2 Filmmaker. I hope it goes well. I think RUclips has put the channel in algorithm hell for some reason and hopefully SCP: Saferoom does well enough.
And in case you don't know, the song is Blue Monday by New Order.

If you liked it, rate it on Steam. I don't know how it could possibly help, just that it does.
Trivia:
Again, an animation that took too long. I don't know why. It might be something to do with the learning curve of S2FM.
The animation progress started on 13/04/23, ending on 03/07/23. My laptop died mid-way, during the early progress. It died from pure overuse, which is anomalous for laptops only 2.5 years old. I probably cooked it.
My favorite SCPs are still 2639, 3780, 4856, 093, 1861, and 3021.
This is my first animation in 24 FPS in 5 years. This is because I don't know why S2FM refuses to animate properly in the usual 60 FPS. I think it looks fine, but the motion blur difference is still odd to me. I hope it doesn't minimise your enjoyment.
The MTFs cannot move their faces. This is like SCP: Ordinary World, but worse. All models had serious issues with faceposing, which proved a challenge since a lot of my shots and signature moves rely on emoting, and nobody talks in this animation.

READ BEFORE COMMENTING
I'm moving to S2FM. The lighting's better.

[@DrFrost1229]

Okay

[@loki8582]

Interesting choice going with Gamma-13 “Asimov's Lawbringers”, Don't see much stuff that involves them or any other MTF than the core few of Epsilon-11, Alpha-1 and Nu-7

[@ADummie]

It's mostly because they aren't that famous, which I like. And they fight robotic anomalies, I think.
Good catch!

[@loki8582]

Yeah they fight Anomalies Robotic contacts but they also mostly respond to stuff relating to Anderson Robotics as they're logo is the Anderson Robotics bird with the Foundation arrows, I personally love Sigma-66 "Sixteen Tons" they're so interesting@@ADummie

[@jalontf2]

Upvoted as soon as I heard Blue Monday. 80s music was the greatest, and fits so well with modern games/sfm

[@ADummie]

I remember seeing it a long time ago in some SFM about MGS, but could never find it. I think it was taken down. So this is the homage.

[@elitely6748]

Sweet animation as always man very energetic! Can't wait to see what else you have in store for us with s2fm!

Thanks a ton!

1:30 your talent, or hard work is really great to see you display it

[@ilovehelldivers5317]

I really hope it doesn't change things that you move to SFM2, with your skills you'll probably do fine

[@ADummie]

Thanks for the appreciation!
I will say though, my channel has been in algorithm hell for a while now so I'm unsure on how to proceed in terms of viewership and direction.

[@ilovehelldivers5317]

@@ADummie I'm sad to hear that, and sad to even suggest this but, maybe try something other than SCP like how the Exploring Series did, not sure there are many 40k models though, best of luck on these trying times o7

Ahh it's this animation style again.

[@ADummie]

I'm curious, do you prefer my usual "energetic cartoony" style or the more "grounded" style? My subscribers prefer the first one but general audiences seem to like the latter.

[@kriffianRamblings]

@@ADummie I think if you could do both then they can be different for certain kinds of animations, like if you were making a full on Realistic SFM then it'd be nice to have a grounded animation style but if it was TF2 SFMs of any kind and such then your energetic cartoony animation style would fit in.

Though seriously it makes for a nice change of pace and especially if it means we get more uploads more often.
