How To Make Animated TV Mods For L4D2
By TOG | K1CHWA and 1 collaborators
my 1st video tutorial ever! (so have mercy) sorry about sound being so quiet.
this video attempts to show you how to make an animated tv mod.
..im sure there are other means to this end.....this is my way.
anyhow, I hope this will help others understand and be able to create their own complete and proper animated tv mods.
all the software used to create the mod in this video is free-to-download and free-to-use (except bandicam)
thanks to all that have supported me thru the years.
special thanx to all my friends at DEAD4MODS http://steamcommunity.com/groups/Dead4Mods
the best place to go for modding advice.
and thanx to jules for making me fix batch editor....frame by frame reedits are tedious
*NOTE* valve recently imposed a .vtf file size limit on l4d1 and l4d2 in their last 'security' update.
this useless limit has broke several of my pc/tv mods....i will try to salvage what i can in the near future.
to avoid issues, keep your tv mods under 999 frames (.vtf file size under 64MB)

@: TOG | K1CHWA : Very late to the party xD, but just to say that the limit is around 64Mb and not 32Mb and that there are sort of "easy" ways with proxies to double this size, if you use $detail on the TV ;) (and put 999 frames of $basetexture and 999 frames of $detail) ;)
