Live2D model public application is now open! I'm interested in working on more posed models or models with custom animations. If that sounds like what you're up to, I'd love to see it! Regular full/half body are accepted too Slots are limited, apply below!

Here's a neat #Live2D trick: You can use rotation deformers and the temporary path tool to space objects evenly and line them up in the direction you want

Her halo is purely physics driven and is not attached to her body rig. I wanted to give that floaty feel like it's trying to keep up with her movements #Live2D

Everyone already shared their fair take about 2D Vtubers source file access rights, and I'd like to add from technical viewpoint that Lina's bring here. You can, in fact, import moc3 file back into Live2D Cubism. However you can only import them in Animation mode. Which means you can make new animations out of any Vtuber models, and export the motion3 files. That's the most extent the editor allows you. Anyone can "steal" your physics settings. Physics json delivered in your models is a readable text format. Live2D Editor has function to import physics file. Give someone an hour to recreate the parameters and they get your whole physics setup without the model. And then anyone theoretically can make expanded use of their models to be used in games or other applications. I'm not sure if this has been tried however. I do heard some Vtubers games featuring Live2D models but I'm not sure if they are using actual models. Those are list of possibilities of what you can do with Vtubers moc3 files that I can think of. Now what if Live2D editor allows us to import moc3 files to Editor? Say that, deformers, parameters and meshes can be imported, but read only. Only modifications they allow is either opacity, screen blending or removing the objects. Moc3 has no PSD info attached, but you can regenerate atlas from imported meshes. Any people can add new PSD on top of those and rig them just like they normally would, with a moc3 as a base rig. I don't really have much knowledge in 3D modeling space so I appreciate if anyone "umm actually" me on this, but with exported 3D models you probably losing info like bone names, rig script, modifiers, but anyone can import their 3D models back to Blender and edit the meshes or even retopo it as they like. We could have same thing with 2D models. However that means Live2D has to rewrote their 20 years old codebase from the ground up (happy 20th anniversary btw), but it's actionable. The only question if they think it's worth the effort. Live2D is still in this weird spot whether they want to go all in Vtubers, Game devs or even TV Anime production (yes they are making anime too. Aniplex owns the majority shares of the company). One decision they make will impact the others. Japanese bureaucracy doesn't help either. With that in mind I don't believe it will changes in near future.

Updated my Carrd site to add quick links for mobile. I figured the homepage needed clearer navigation on small screen. I don't want to add more to the fullpage carousel, so I repurposed the welcome card to show button links, classic Carrd style. After a few weeks I can see it helps improving visitors bounce rate.

More demos featuring #VTubeStudio with touchscreen! Triggers are assigned to specific parts of the model, letting each tap activate unique toggles or animations. It's a fun way to show off Live2D models in public✨ Be sure to check out these amazing creators @!

After 5 months of planning, our first Live2D Jakarta Chapter event was a huge success! We brought an interactive Live2D showcase to the biggest anime con in Indonesia, featuring over 20 finest models created by our local artists and riggers. This showcase also included a custom-made plugin for VTube Studio that adds touch interactivity to Live2D models, allowing visitors to interact with VTuber models in a more engaging way! We hope this demo could open up new potential for Vtubers in IRL events. Special thanks to Live2D Inc. for trusting me to host this event! The showcase attracted many curious visitors and gave us the opportunity to introduce this tech to a wider audience, and we hope we are opening up new opportunities for everyone. Look forward to our next one! (Model: Key Oriesa by @karamomokitchen)

Fun fact: These are all my selfies If you are at Comifuro 22 this weekend, come see our booth and play with these amazing Live2D models by talented Indonesian creators! They'll be in a big touchscreen panel that you can interact with, first of its kind with VTube Studio. That means face tracking and touch triggers👀 Come and see it by yourself!

This is neat.. Live2D 5.3 allows items to have its masking and color blends applied to the model below them

world's sleepiest angel... i overslept ehheheh _(:3」∠)_

Fefe’s idea is on fire!! I experimented with this toggle for weeks and finally figured out how to rig it😭 Letsss join her stream and see how she plays with this lollipop😳 Vtuber : @CovfefeChan Asset Model : @da3iann Asset Rigging : Me!! Vbridger Mouth Rigging : @iinneo

I worked on new costume base VBridger for @CovfefeChan! Happy (belated) birthday~ 🎉 #Live2D #VtubeStudio
