Intro

Valve has added some nice touches in SFM, making it easy for users to make some awesome things easily, today I will light up (get it?) a trick for SFM lighting.
My name is Landeyx, and today I’ll show you how to do this, it’s pretty easy.

How To Do The Lighting

Step 1: Spawn a model

Step 2: Go into the motion set editor

Step 3: Hold ctrl and select a bone (I prefer the neck bone)

Step 4: Something should light up in the animotion set, right click it and hover over utilities and click “create lights”

Step 5: Play arround with the lights which are just created and create some nice lighting

Make sure to edit your render settings to Depth of field 1024 override and turn motion blur off.
