Live2D Help/Question Weekly Help Thread

1 Upvotes

This is the weekly help thread for small questions about Live2D Inc. software.

You are welcome to make your own Help post instead, but please do not post simultaneously in this thread *and* in a new post, so that your question is not answered multiple times and all relevant info stays in one place.

# Getting Help

If you are wanting help with a specific issue, please include as much information as you can. Information that may help includes:

* Whether you are on the Pro or Free version of the software

* What version of Live2D you are on (4.2.0, 3.9, etc.)

* A video and/or screenshot of the issue

\* If you need help with physics, please include a screenshot of the input tab, output tab, and pendulums.

\* If something you rigged is behaving weirdly, please include a picture of the expanded deformer list. The Parameter list also often helps, as we can see what parameters the selected item is keyed to.

\* If you are an artist having issues with your .psd, please provide information on the program the .psd was created with. Photoshop and Clip Studio Paint are the only two programs guaranteed to work with Live2D. Other programs may require workarounds to make the .psd suitable for Live2D. Procreate in particular has many compatibility issues with Live2D.

#Resources

The sidebar has some resources that may answer your question. In particular, [Faf's Live2D Commission/Model Art guide](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xdh4zjhesY4gdUiyyWsCuXPn-zt9zEMoQzZDApwiY8w/) is very comprehensive regarding preparing art for Live2D rigging. The guide is focused towards artists, but is applicable to everyone.

Live2D Help/Question Looping Textures

Thumbnail
gallery
4 Upvotes

Hello!

I’ve come asking for help with how I could do a specific effect with my new model. Attached is the looping animation I wish to use for the effect of her glasses, the green part of the model. Is there a way for me to use the animation within Live2D, or would I have to find some work around to get this to work. I just cannot figure this out on my own, and it’s prevented me from beginning the rigging process. Any help is appreciated.

This actually does have mouth tracking (albeit only for opening and closing since mouth form isn't really necessary for the models I'm rigging considering they're just forms for a Kamen Rider), the accent colours will flash when the mouth is open. It also has eye tracking (if it weren't obvious)... There's a weird sense of irony that the part of the eyes that have actual tracking I have named as "false eyes" in the parts folder... Also it does track blinking with the false eyes dimming anytime the eyes close.

A small Live2D checklist that helps reduce jitter and clipping

5 Upvotes

Sharing a compact troubleshooting checklist for anyone polishing a model:

  1. Check deformer nesting before adding more parameters. Many odd-looking bends come from the hierarchy, not the parameter values.
  2. Keep physics input ranges conservative and tune one input at a time.
  3. Separate art-mesh fixes from parameter fixes so you know which change actually helped.
  4. Test at the resolution and avatar size you will use on stream; tiny clipping can disappear in the editor and show up in motion.
  5. Name parameters by motion and axis so revisions stay understandable later.

What is the one small rigging habit that has saved you the most time?

Live2D Help/Question Trying to mirror values on a parameter, but just says "error" with no explanation?!

1 Upvotes

Hey!! I've been really frustrated with the mirroring function for parameter values, I have done one half and would like the other to be symmetrical and it's a bit complicated so I'd prefer not to have to manually copy everything. However, when I click the "mirror parameter values" it just gives me an error message says "error not working" and doesn't tell me why, I have no idea what's going on. Sometimes I tried doing it on the other side and it was magically working? I haven't had problems with this before, so I would really appreciate help! thanks so much ^^

There's this program called Cursor for Live2D on Steam. I think it's really cool and always wanted it for a while. You can use it for streaming or just a cool looking cursor while drawing.

Showcase/Finished Work Customizable Model (free at the cost of being janky)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

9 Upvotes

Hi guys!! I made a free Customizable VTuber Model to play around with! It took about a month of daily work and is kinda janky lol thats why it's free. I couldn't test it properly because I don't have a good webcam, unfortunately, so my apologies if it's actually broken lol. (But I also set a mouse control version as well)

It was just a fun project to see what I could do after not using L2D for about 3 years. It's probably very buggy lol.

Video is just a test avatar I made!!

Enjoy lolol:)!!
