Appreciate it.

Yo, just read everything below and posting this for any future people. Thought id give this a stab:

When in the Motion Editor, if CTRL+C CTRL+V doesn't work, right click on the motion editor and click "paste samples" after copying the samples

Excellent work on the animations regardless, Stefano. :)

In fact it was very confusing at the beginning, and I couldn't stop making questions.
Anyway, I'm sure it'll work out (you can also look on YT for SFM tutorials, in case).

Thank you! But once again I apologise for not really being able to grasp the tutorial the first time, I'll give this a go.

So, you want just to copy the bones of the skeleton of the "animations" base to the one you want...now I got better what you just wrote.
Actually, it's pretty simple the procedure: copy the bones of the skeleton of the "animations" model and paste it on the ragdoll (making always sure that the skeleton is compatible with the model you have in mind, otherwise you just mess up).
Anyway, this how you copy an animation:
1st select the model and go to motion editor;
2nd once the model is selected, select ALL the bones you believe are necessary for your model and then do CTRL+C;
3rd go to your model and then go to motion editor (make sure to have the model selected) and then just do CTRL+V and you'll get the animation (or pose) pasted.

In all this, make sure both the "animations" model and the model (yours) have the skeleton compatible.

Oh yes, I did manage to figure out the problem with the facial flexes, I'm just a little confused on how copying the animation works, locking the skeleton also gave me issues with cosmetics, the animations given were exactly what I've been needing, which is why I'm trying to see what exactly I'm doing wrong.
my sincerest apologies

Again...WHY are you using the base of the animations as main model...?
I mean: it just gives you the animations you need for your ragdoll....
Also, you can lock the skeleton yes, but for facial flexes and other stuff, the "animations" base is completely useless.

Then I'm having some trouble getting it to work, despite the instructions given. I'm afraid I'm not entirely sure what exactly I'm doing wrong, although I'm not entirely sure how you copy an animation and apply it to the character you're using, I just thought that meant locking the skeletons together.

Uhm, the "model" is just the base for the animations.

I do apologise, but I'm afraid I'm having some trouble with specifically the heavy model that came with the download, it's textures are slightly off, the texture on the hands is completely missing and despite experimentation, I can't seem to make the facial features work right, this is difficult, because more custom animations for specifically heavy is what I've been looking for for the better part of a year.

Nice!

Fixed "missing" custom animations regarding the engineer.

Fresh update has been released.
Make sure to "re-download" the .rar .

it dosent work

Shit I'm stupid

Did you read the description...?

steam blocks the link

i like tf2

Thank you for making this useful stuff . It helps me a lot :D

This is amazing. Thank you so very much.

First of, since you said you're new, you should learn the basics of how to use it. You can just skip the steps, hoping to learn everything in quck way

i did that but i dont know how to use the animations

Read the description, and after that, put the models section in your "usermod" folder and you're done

im very new to sfm how do i use this

You don't even need .dmx files. Just put everything in "usermod" folder and the thing is totally automatic

How do I import the animations because it said it needed to be dmx files and I couldn't find any

Download the .rar first, then place everything in the "usermod" folder

Where do you go exactly to do that? Where would the files be located after downloading them.

ive been looking for thies animations, thank you lad for making them

NEW ANIMATIONS HAVE BEEN RELEASED! DOWNLOAD AGAIN THE LINK TO HAVE ACCESS TO THEM NOW

"how I do it cause usually" <- All right, first of all, load the model having the animation you're looking for. Then load the animation like you're loading an animation on random character, and done that, copy the animation you loaded and put it into the character you want it uses (the medic, in this case)

this is awesome !

How do I import the animation to the model? for example I'm trying to do the Shake it! on a medic and I'm getting stumped on how I do it cause usually, They make It so you go to Import - Animation then find it in the workshop folder. But I'm guessing this is now how this one works. I do apologies if I sound dumb.

That too, especially because I noticed some models lack of the "line" that allows them to have the animations included (some enhanced models for example, have that line, while others no)

Ah, so we basically disregard the models and just copy their animations over the actual characters?

Those are for showing the animations, in case people would have been curious about them (and later want to copy and past them over the TF2 character they want to use)

Hay, I have been wondering how you install these correctly, since every time I download these and put them in my files, they show up missing eyes, hand textures and missing things such as a hard hat or bullet belt

СПАСИБО!)

I fixed that a while ago. Unfortunately, now it's another thing that steam doesn't even bother to explain me

Just a hunch but you might be hitting your workshop limit, I hear Valve only gives you so much space to upload workshop content.

oh thx
