"Failed load of .VVD data for" Problem
So I'm trying to port a model from Garry's Mod over to SFM, but I keep getting the error MDLCache: Failed load of .VVD data for Junio_Sonic.mdl. My first thought was to rename the file from junio_sonic.mdl to Junio_Sonic.mdl since these problems can be fixed by switching a few letters, but it still shows the same error. What makes this more confusing is that it doesn't show the file path in error message. So I have genuinely no clue what the solution could be. Can anyone help me?

The VVD error states that the model files must be located at...
-/SourceFilmmaker/game/[folder]/models/Junio_Sonic.[extension]
...(with "[folder]" being any active search path). Note that it must be in the root "models" folder, not any sub-folders.

Garry's Mod can load a model from wherever it's located, but Source Filmmaker will only load models from where the MDL file says that the model should be located, so some Garry's Mod models need to be moved around to work in Source Filmmaker.

Thank you! One last question though: since the model that I am attempting to port is a player model and it gets stretched to fit the human rig, does that mean that I have to create a rig for it myself, or is it somewhere in the files? I am assuming it's the former option.
