EBF2 is a series (with somewhat long, and somewhat short episodes, such as this one) which attempts to re-create the wonderful world of MOTHER 2 / Earthbound, a RPG on the SNES from 1994, with Team Fortress 2 content (and a lot of stuff that's made specifically for it). You probably already know Mr. Saturn if you've played any of the Smash Bros. games!
That video was pretty fun to make, because it's all one big animation made in 3ds Max, then exported and rendered in Source. I can't judge my own animation very well, but I know there are some lousy parts... :)

Special thanks to Royzo for his help, Kikka for the Summers theme remix and Daimao for the Mr. Saturn model!

Yey !
Video reaction
HAHAHAHAHAA !!
Not bad, Mr Lebled.
At last, it is out!
bad
I can barely hear the voices though. 3Dmax is a waste anyway it takes a crap load of time to just make someone smile or move a hand then make it in gmod with some confusing scripts while i would just use the HAT simulator or better screenshots.
very impressive
That was sweet. Jeff made me laugh a lot.
Short but very, very sweet. I am a little surprised to see myself in the credits. Especially since I didn't do anything. But hey, I'm not complaining. :v:
Pretty sweet man. :)
It looks great. How much time took you to make this?
Couldn't really follow what was been said.
Still you did an amazing job.

This is the oldest automated backup of the 3ds max scene file so I guess it's exactly a month

i'm gonna go add subtitles i think
It's beautiful.
very very nice
just a shame he's french eh :xd:
I thought the pacing was off sometimes, but overall it's well made, be proud.
problem is I've never played earthbound so I don't get it

Don't really have to get it to realize that it's pretty well made and nice looking.

Also, added subtitles for those of you who don't like stuff that has been through loudness war filters
The animations are brilliant! Again, good job Max.
It's pretty awesome, but for some reason I don't like your animation style. It seems slow and unrealistic, overall their performance just seems completely fake. And the wobbly cam got annoying for me.
Still looks extremely stiff in some places with bad camera operating.
You're getting better though, keep it up.
^ What Icemaz said ^
[QUOTE=icemaz;28260047]It seems slow and unrealistic[/QUOTE]
Yeah, that's what I meant by pacing. Some scenes and actions took too long to resolve. But I guess getting a feeling for this and making it look less robotic and more human is an ability you have to gain through experience.
That was some awesome fluid animation there Max.
[QUOTE=Chipalt;28259138]I can barely hear the voices though.[/QUOTE]
turn up your volume then
[QUOTE=Chipalt;28259138]3Dmax is a waste anyway[/QUOTE]
it's the best modeling/animation tool availiable for free (if you're a student)
[QUOTE=Chipalt;28259138]it takes a crap load of time to just make someone smile[/QUOTE]
Face posing is not part of the animation process, you use Source SDK for that
[QUOTE=Chipalt;28259138]make it in gmod with some confusing scripts[/QUOTE]
to bad making some shitty gmod video won't get you a job or even joining a mod team
[QUOTE=Chipalt;28259138]while i would just use the HAT simulator or better screenshots.[/QUOTE]
no
That must have been quite painful.
good work man
