After three years of not using SFM to animate or even pose still images, I finally did something with it! ^^ And this time, it's tickling that slapstick itch I've been having for months! XD Needless to say, a trip to the mountains wasn't such a good idea. But it sure gave them a quick trip back to the ground!

For the long and gritty technical side: SFM wasn't working right on the PC it was installed in. Something to do with the installation folder being in the wrong place from the actual program and Steam not really registering it. Plus it was pretty slow on there to begin with, so I moved it to the Steam Deck instead, copying my usermod files from a backup to go along with it. Since the Deck has a Desktop mode and can emulate Windows using Proton Experimental (in game properties under compatibility), I just ran SFM on that instead and it worked a LOT better than than on my PC. It took roughly a day to come up with the idea, get SFM installed on the Deck, animate it all, and edit the stills and some of the speed in post using CSP, Asperite, and EZGif. Was it worth it? Not for a lotta people. But for me, it was a great experiment to detour from my usual drawing and scripting routine ^^
Hope you enjoy!
