A little help? please?
Hello there! Recently, I discovered this nice website called "mixamo". However, I wasn't aware of the fact that they ended support for source flimmaker and GMoD almost 2 years ago. I didn't think it was possible to import the animations to SFM anymore until I found this one video where they used an animation on a SFM video from the site on an character. Is there actually a way that it's possible to do this? If so I would glady accept any help/ answers that will benefit me. Thank you for reading, have a nice day.

It's not impossible to import Mixamo/Fuse characters, but it's now a case that it has to be done the "full manual" way that other non-Source models do, so the program has little advantage over other alternatives.

In any case, there are going to be many people who still have copies of Fuse content from before support was withdrawn (the removal of support doesn't retroactively affect models that already work), so recent videos using Fuse models don't really demonstrate anything - they could be old models, or models done manually.

you can always attempt to rig sfm characters from scratch or beta skellies. :)

Fuse on Steam is dead. It died at version 1.3 just before the release of 1.4 (like days before). It was bought out by Adobe. The old Mixamo site that allowed auto rigging and allowed you to download rigged models from FUSE for GMod and SFM was killed by Adobe about a year and a half after the buy out.

Adobe offers FUSE for Free if you open an Adobe CC account. The auto rigger there does FBX and DAE rigs which can be imported to Blender then Exported as DMX/SMD files. They also offer animations that you can append to your characters for free.

So with that tool i should be able to get the animations into source flimmaker right???

No, the adobe Autorigger does not do Gmod or SFM rigs anymore. Blender is a full fledged 3D editor, and you can't just import, export and expect a model to work in SFM. There's a heck of a lot more to it and a big learning curve to get there.

Which is why I created this guide.
