There are two different ways to install your scenebuild. The installation process you pick is up to you and how you intend to organize your directory:

 

Installation Process 1

This method installs your scenebuild as a unique mod to your directory

 

Create a new directory

Drag the folder “scenebuild_landscape_winter” directly into your mod directory “Steam\steamapps\common\SourceFilmmaker\game”

 

Update gameinfo.txt

Open the gameinfo.txt file that your Source Filmmaker uses, typically located in your usermod folder, and add a line:

 

Game scenebuild_landscape_winter

 

Save and close your gameinfo.txt file.

Locating and Opening your Scenebuild

Open Source Filmmaker. Click File -> Open and in this window, go to your mod directory and then go to:

 

scenebuild_landscape_winter\elements\sessions\scenebuild store

 

In this folder, you will find your scenebuild DMX file called “scenebuild - landscape - winter.dmx”

 

Once the scene is loaded, you will go to activate your Directional Scaling Script, typically located in Scripts -> umfc -> Directional Scale Patch.

 

Once you are patched, the elements in the scene will adjust to their proper size. And that’s it!

Installation Process 2

This method installs your scenebuilds as a single mod, that can contain multiple scenebuilds to your directory. Useful if you've downloaded many scenebuilds and want to keep them all in a single place.

 

Create a new directory

Go to your Source Filmmaker Directory : “Steam\steamapps\common\SourceFilmmaker\game”

And create a new mod. Call it something like “fluidscriptstudios_scenebuilds” Make sure there are no spaces!

 

Update gameinfo.txt

Open the gameinfo.txt file that your Source Filmmaker uses, typically located in your usermod folder, and add a line:

 

Game fluidscriptstudios_scenebuilds

 

Save and close your gameinfo.txt file.

 

Installing the Package

Open your zipped file, and click inside the scenebuild_landscape_winter folder, You will see four files called “Elements” “Maps” “Materials” and “Models” Drag and drop these directly into the “fluidscriptstudios_scenebuilds” mod folder you just created.

 

Locating and Opening your Scenebuild

Open Source Filmmaker. Click File -> Open and in this window, go to your mod directory and then go to:

 

fluidscriptstudios_scenebuilds\elements\sessions\scenebuild store

 

In this folder, you will find your scenebuild DMX file called “scenebuild - landscape - winter.dmx”

 

Once the scene is loaded, you will go to activate your Directional Scaling Script, typically located in Scripts -> umfc -> Directional Scale Patch.

 

Installing multiple scenebuilds

If you have downloaded other scenebuilds from our store, drag the elements, maps, materials and models folder to this same folder. It will prompt you whether you want to overwrite files. Always click “Yes, overwrite them all.”

 

All your scenebuilds will be located in the fluidscriptstudios_scenebuilds\elements\sessions\scenebuild store folder, which is great if you like to keep all of them in a single place.
