The problem is the flexcontroller, the flexcontroller is not a command. Is it?
Anyway, I don't know what to do. All the commands are already laid about by the developer. I am not the person who made this model.

Now that I see this, I think I know what your problem is....

Your Flexcontroller statemenst are out of order...

Here you have flexcontroller commands

.... flexcontroller CloseLidU range 0 1 "CloseLidU" flexcontroller CloseLidDown range 0 1 "CloseLidDown" flexcontroller end range 0 1 "end" flexcontroller JawD range 0 1 "JawD" flexcontroller JawR range 0 1 "JawR" flexcontroller JawL range 0 1 "JawL" flexcontroller Smile range 0 1 "Smile" flexcontroller Platysmus range 0 1 "Platysmus" flexcontroller CheekH range 0 1 "CheekH" flexcontroller CheekRaiser range 0 1 "CheekRaiser" flexcontroller lipStretcher range 0 1 "lipStretcher" flexcontroller lipPuckerer range 0 1 "lipPuckerer" flexcontroller EE range 0 1 "EE" flexcontroller mad range 0 1 "mad" flexcontroller upset1 range 0 1 "upset1" flexcontroller happyBig range 0 1 "happyBig" flexcontroller squint range 0 1 "squint" flexcontroller cocky range 0 1 "cocky" flexcontroller end range 0 1 "end" ....

There is no $model statement or flexfile definition

Then you have these local vars defined but then again, what are they defined for?

localvar end %CloseLidU = CloseLidU %CloseLidDown = CloseLidDown %end = end %JawD = JawD %JawR = JawR %JawL = JawL %Smile = Smile %Platysmus = Platysmus %CheekH = CheekH %CheekRaiser = CheekRaiser %lipStretcher = lipStretcher %lipPuckerer = lipPuckerer %EE = EE %mad = mad %upset1 = upset1 %happyBig = happyBig %squint = squint %cocky = cocky %end = end }

Finally you have things listed properly here in the qc. You have the $model statement but, this is not for the character's whole head, it's just for the just for the eyelids.

When using SMDs you can only have 1 $model statement and Flexes and controllers can only be defined once.

$model "lids" "judyhopps_eyelids.smd" { flexfile "judyhopps_02.vta" { defaultflex frame 0 flex "CloseLidU" frame 1 flex "CloseLidDown" frame 2 } flexcontroller CloseLidU range 0 1 "CloseLidU" flexcontroller CloseLidDown range 0 1 "CloseLidDown" flexcontroller end range 0 1 "end" flexcontroller JawD range 0 1 "JawD" flexcontroller JawR range 0 1 "JawR" flexcontroller JawL range 0 1 "JawL" flexcontroller Smile range 0 1 "Smile" flexcontroller Platysmus range 0 1 "Platysmus" flexcontroller CheekH range 0 1 "CheekH" flexcontroller CheekRaiser range 0 1 "CheekRaiser" flexcontroller lipStretcher range 0 1 "lipStretcher" flexcontroller lipPuckerer range 0 1 "lipPuckerer" flexcontroller EE range 0 1 "EE" flexcontroller mad range 0 1 "mad" flexcontroller upset1 range 0 1 "upset1" flexcontroller happyBig range 0 1 "happyBig" flexcontroller squint range 0 1 "squint" flexcontroller cocky range 0 1 "cocky" flexcontroller end range 0 1 "end"

Now, if you decompiled this model with Crowbar, there may be multiple VTA files, but only 1 will have a large files size, the rest will be much smaller and should be the same filesize. I think it is being caused by the multiple bodygroups. The LARGEST VTA file is the one you want.

Ok, im gonna go give it a try when I have time. I'm kinda busy on some things. Thanks!

Btw, I saw your channel! Sub!

Ok... I am on Blender right now.

There is no $model statement or flexfile definition

What would I type to give it a definition? I do not understand a lot about coding.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then you have these local vars defined but then again, what are they defined for?

How would I define them? With $model, $modelname, etc? How would I connect them to the face of the model?

I don't know how to troubleshoot by myself. I think I need a teensy bit of help.

Not sure if you told us or if we asked you, but what game are you trying to compile this for?

I don't know what I am doing, This is why I need your help.

Can you please explain what to do here? I am looking at your video and it seems that I can't compile it and compile on Crowbar.

Ok, lets start at the start.

You have a model and your working on it in Blender and your want to use it in what Valve Game, (like SFM, TF2, GMod, L4D, etc)
which game are you wanting to use this in?

The answer will determine how I respond to your help request.

I am not creating a model if you're implying that. No...
I am trying to send it back to SFM but it's not really "compatible" to put all those files into the workshop folders. I got this model from the workshop.

Sry, I am busy on weekdays and I need to get up early on Sundays
I want to use this in SFM, I want to use this model and animate it on SFM... That is all :)
"it's not really "compatible" to put all those files into the workshop folders. I got this model from the workshop." Ignore that, I had no idea what I was talking about :/

The thing is, SMD only support 1 VTA file. When you decompile with Crowbar, there are VTAs created for each bodygroup it encounters but the main VTA file will have the largest filesize. Only 1 bodygroup can or will actually have the flexes.

Now in you QC snippet, I'm seeing thing like $model commands for eyelids and judy_hops and references to _03.VTA and _02.VTA, this won't work for SMD type model source files. It is possible to have multiple bodygroups with flexes in DMX model source files but it is hard to make them work properly and the practice is frowned upon unless the flexes between the 2 or mre objects aren't related in anyway.

But in a SMD based model source, you can only have 1 VTA file. The lids, tounge, eyeballs, lashes, etc all have to be part of the same object, shape keys added to that 1 object and only 1 VTA file created when exported. So your model is dead right from the get go.

Link the model you downloaded and decompiled so we at least know what it is you're working with.

This is wrong. In fact, a single SMD can use multiple VTA flex files if it wants to.

I also think that, though I don't know for certain if, you can use multiple $Model statements for the same QC file, allowing you to use VTA flexes for multiple SMDs(/DMXes, although DMX flexes are preferred there). Yes, VTA flexes are unuseable for body-groups, but they can be used as much as you want for non-grouped body parts (until you hit hard flex amount limits, but that applies to DMX flexes too).
