My rigger is having difficulty with getting the ACTUAL face (eyes/nose/mouth) positioned properly with the head angles. Is there a tutorial for that? I don't see one from you, but do you have any recommendations?

Using a 3d model head as a reference base in live2d is actually genius and will save so much 'brain power' later in the pipeline. Thank you ❤

Thought it was common knowledge...I don't have a vtuber myself,nor am I a rigger but I want one one day and I thought 3D head references were common knowledge 😅

For people using the free version (like me :D), who are trying to do this and can't copy paste your mesh here's what I found has worked: select (control + click) the layers you need, in this case the lineart, colors, etc and proceed with the tutorial as usual. If you do the mesh with all the applicable layers selected it makes a separate one for each! Without the need to copy paste

I've watched so many l2d videos trying to understand rigging because the xy angle is always where everything goes wrong. And your video just assessed to me the quickest and cleanest way ever. Amazing

i love your tutorials so much! ive been rigging on and off for 2 years and needed a refresher, this was perfect! instantly subbed :D

I’ve been working on my model, and safe to say you saved my life lmao. I was pretty intimidated with head rigging but i hope i’ll apply everything correctly!

this tutorial is AMAZING!!! I've done my own rigging for a while by just winging it and I've had decent success, but I'm definitely going to watch all your videos now, tysm 🙏 subscribed

I rigged my vtuber one year ago and wasnt really satisfied with the head movement especially. I have now decided to redo the rig and am looking forward to it with your help! Also whoever said 3d model is genius fuck yes I agree holy I just got clip studio paint for only that reason! :D

Thank you so much for the straight to the point and concise tutorial! I learned so many things in the same amount of time other guide videos take to introduce themselves or explain one single thing. 😭You also used the better way (imo) to deform the face since it doesn't thin out/expand the lineart as opposed to using the default warp deformer I was taught to use Dx. One question tho, when you set the conversion division/bezier division to high numbers, does it also affect performance when you've exported the rig to .moc3? or is it just a performance thing /while/ you're still working on rigging it?

@fennryn

It'll just affect your Live2D while you're working on it. It wont matter when you're using it (from my knowledge and experience)

@fennryn

5 ай бұрын

If you're willing to try programmes like Blender, you can find free 3D heads online that you can put into blender and rotate around! you might have to warp and change the face slightly in blender to get it to look like your vtuber though!

question dear fox person, why not just have the face outline be already drawn in with the face base, instead of pasting it in as you add the mesh?

@o0EnderNyx0o

3 ай бұрын

I can answer this! While it’s easier to draw the face outline on the face skin itself, it makes it look warped in the rigging process and is REALLY tedious to try and fix. if you make them separate and glue them together in the program then it’ll look a lot smoother when rigged and a lot easier to fix if it gets a bit warped since they’d be two separate layers At least in my opinion 😅

i dont have ClipStudio, so does anyone know of another source where I could create a 3D model head to mimic the shape of my 2d model and use for posing like featured here? I've looked around on google and it's mostly pulling up AI websites

Hi I would like to ask a question, I've been trying ti rig my vtube model, but my model have a fluff on their cheeks, and my question is, should i seperate them from left and right or should i just merge it together with the head shape?

Trying rigging the face based on your tutorial and so far I love it!! Quick question in 5:56 - 6:00 the mesh turned back the way it was which was from Face X, and then you renamed it Face XY, how did you do it like make the mesh not scattered for Face XY?

@fennryn

Жыл бұрын

The reason the deformer changes name from Face X to Face Xy was because i made a typo when filming this and hoped no one would notice heh WHOOPS. All I did was go click on the Deformer, go into the Inspector menu in the centre of the screen, and added a Y to the end of the name. :)

How do you add the extra dots into the center of the face? I am struggling trying to learn rigging and can't seem to figure out how to do those dots without messing with the outer mesh...
