Although the names are different but the session im trying to import is named the same as the session im working on,and the content is the same.

I WANT TO COPY ITEMS FROM ANOTHER SESSION TO ANOTHER

how to use s2fm ?

I have a problem when importing a model with locked models, I get a message that "we are having problems importing this model" and all models that have been locked are now detached

i can only import one session, even if they don't share the same name

i think this doesnt work anymore, im trying to import a session into another (both are named differently), but for some reason the session im trying to import is named the same as the session im working on, which is not the case when i load it up, and nothing gets imported at all, what do i do?

There might be some error because sometimes it's not detecting last shot from saved file.

no worry's

i did it

how to restart sfm? im new

I can't figure out how to actually use this.

restart sfm

I can't find it in my main menu

Is there a way to combine 2 shots, for example, I have a model that I have saved and in the session, but I have another that I want to be in that same shot.

Its not working. Subscribed, but it refused to work.

no, not yet I'm trying to find a new way to import session files cause the one built into sfm imports files like your opening a session and keeps things memory, causing conflicts with the current session.

i assume no update

which thing the script itself? or the session files?

hey; It won't appear in my files, Can I please have some sort of help?

thanks for the info, i should have an update out sometime this week

again i feel as though somethings wrong as its just naming it "shot 1" or "shot2" copying the current shots name and not pulling the actual files shot name. anyway an update can be had for this?

hold on. seems i found an error. i loaded in an empty session.

added. it seems to want to load the same session i imported last?

imported session "the big cheese" and it loads "shot1_big cheese" but does not work. no error to pinpoint. just an empty shot and or a copy of the already current shot i have in session.

i go to dlt it and load
"brave bread" and it comes up still as. "shot1_big cheese"

these are just place holder names. but still, error is all the same

there arnet any errors that come up in the console. only that the scripts running.

it worked for me not too long ago on one session. its back to changing the session name to the session i have currently. so if i change the clip number or name to "shot1" it will change the imported session to "shot1" if i change it to "shot2" it does it as well. im not sure what the issue is.

does any error show up in the console?

It's not working. It's just not working. I start out in a session that's empty except for a map, and then I try importing from a session that has models in it...but nothing appears at the end of the film strip.

Nothing, nothing, NOTHING.

as reported. it does not change to the new shot.

simply put friends i think the scripts broken. a user reported using it. and it does not show up with anything from the imported dmx

I was hoping this would copy the models from a different session to the new one for editing, while given us the option of selecting which one to carry over, as my issue is a session that won't open due to a missing model that was deleted from the workshop, and the session was very packed, so SFM crashes whenever trying to open it.

I have a session that doesn't work, but I don't understand why.

No just completely blank. So my hard drive has a faulty SATA cable and my hard drive disconnected while SFM was running which corrupted the DMX

does any error show up in the console when that happens?

I'm trying to open a corrupted DMX and nothing happens. No shots appear in the importer or anything. Even the .BAK file is corrupted.

if an error doesn't show up in the console when trying to import then it might be the .dmx file. if you want, give me a copy of the file to find the issue.

If you mean regular dmx files, yeah, those open normally. I can get the shots in using the method without the script the misc thing, so I'm not really sure why its bugging out. Would an error log show up in element viewer if I attempted to load a shot in with the script?

does that session open normally in sfm?

Humm I gave this a try yesterday, importing scripts is a little new for me but it doesn't seem like I messed that up. it only shows one shot when I tried to import one with several. Any suggestions for troubleshooting?

yes or all of them.

Absolutely amazing script and so incredibly useful. Take my award.

ty

after its imported just copy it and paste it to the first film shot like any other thing from shot to shot.

sorry for bothering u again i meant like how do u just get the model only the model to the first film strip the one that was not imported

open up the script, you'll find it under the mainmenu bar->scripts->Import->Import Session
next select the session file you want to import from
then once its done loading the file, select and check off the shot with the model you wish to import.
then click import checked items. all import items will be dropped at the end of your film strip

@OMG Theres A Bear In My Oatmeal! but how do i do that

import only the shot that the model is in.

how do you get only the model you want from the imported session into your current session?

when i import a session it just copys the session

can you make a video with a step by by step? im reading this and i have no clue still

nope, sfm doesnt have a way to scale on a single axis.
