Hey everyone! Today I'm going to show you how to import OBJ files into Source Filmmaker (SFM) in just a few simple steps. If you're a 3D modeler or animator, this is a great way to bring your custom models into SFM for your projects. Let's get started!

Step 1: Prepare Your OBJ File

First, make sure your OBJ file is ready to be imported into SFM. This means making sure the file is properly textured and UV mapped.

Step 2: Convert to SMD Format

Next, you'll need to convert your OBJ file to SMD format using a 3D modeling software like Blender or 3ds Max. This step is essential for compatibility with SFM.

Step 3: Create a New Session in SFM

Open Source Filmmaker and create a new session for your project. Make sure to set the appropriate resolution and frame rate for your animation.

Step 4: Import the SMD File

Now it's time to import your SMD file into SFM. In the Animation Set Editor, right-click and select 'Import' to bring in your SMD file.

Step 5: Position and Scale Your Model

Once the model is imported, you can position and scale it to fit your scene. Use the manipulation tools in SFM to adjust the model's size and orientation.

Step 6: Set Up Materials and Textures

Finally, you'll want to set up the materials and textures for your imported model. Use the Material Editor in SFM to apply textures and adjust the appearance of your model.

And that's it! You've successfully imported your OBJ file into Source Filmmaker (SFM). Now you can use your custom model in your animations and bring your projects to life.

I hope this tutorial was helpful for you! Importing OBJ files into SFM is a great way to expand your animation possibilities and create unique, custom content. Give it a try and see what amazing projects you can create! Thanks for watching, and happy animating!
