Posts: 698 		Two years after their last release Valve have done a new video: Meet the Medic!





They have also announced that Team Fortress 2 is going free-to-play, which is perhaps the greatest video game news ever.....

It seems they use their own animation software called "Source Filmmaker" that runs inside the Source game engine.

Im sure you can make some really cool animations with this but i highly doubt that the video at the top of the thread was made with it.

The meet the medic animation looks 100% custom made.....and if the company says otherwise then im guessing that they are bending the truth (lying).....

Posts: 176 		As someone who's spent like... 400 hours plus working in the source engine I can tell you with hopefully some meagre level of authority that Muvizu's animation system is far, far friendlier than the one in the source engine. for example:

$sequence idlealert "idlealert" loop fps 30.00

$animation view_yaw_left "view_yaw_left" loop fps 30.00
$animation view_yaw_right "view_yawright" loop fps 30.00

$animation view_pitch_up "view_pitch_up" loop fps 30.00
$animation view_pitch_down "view_pitch_down" loop fps 30.00

$sequence turret_yaw { view_yaw_left view_yaw_right blendwidth 2 blend turret_yaw -60 60 }
$sequence turret_pitch { view_pitch_up view_pitch_down blendwidth 2 blend turret_pitch -15 15 }

And that's how you make a turret dance in Source like this:
