Source Filmmaker / Valve compatible rigs?

[jujube]

This is something I'd love to see, too, just to have easy access to all those TF2 maps.

Does anyone have the pertinent specifications available?

I don't know of any MH dev who works with those technologies.

No, I mean how the rigs have to look to fit: bone names, rotations, rest poses etc.

Just from the variety of models available in sfm (realistic humans vs five nights at freddy's), I suspect you aren't limited to a single kind of rig. I don't have a clue about what a standard rig for any program would normally look like, though.

But there does seem to be a valve developer wiki that may be useful:
https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SFM/Making_custom_rigs

The most important bones that are required are the root, pelvis, upper leg, lower leg, foot, collar, elbow and hand bones. Other bones can be added or removed to the rig as required by adding them to the list of variables.

It's a somewhat too big endeavour to install and read up on these platforms for me to engage in atm, but seeming as both UE4 and Unity already works without any particular measures implemented by MH, I would assume chances are there is a viable workflow toward source/valve too using standard tools.

Thus:

I was wondering if there might be plans for models to be compatible with Source Filmmaker / Valve / Team Fortress 2 through the rigs?

Assuming these platforms are able to handle custom rigs and read a standard object format, such as FBX, then what exactly is really missing?

Googling for it, there seems to be FBX support: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wik ... ng_a_model
