It is extremely important to register it ON A KEYFRAME. In this image, I found the elbow keyframes where the hand goes through the model’s chest, adjusted it, and registered it on the keyframe. Since each model has different anatomies, clippings are expected to happen! A model’s arm might be too long compared to the original, and as a result, it may move too much. MMD motions are calculated by the angle or distance the bone is set to move by the original creator. They might have longer arms, shorter body, or a larger bust. Some models might also have different proportions. You can see that the way the bones are placed is different in each model. Take an Animasa Miku for example, and compare it to the model I used. The reason clipping happens is because each model has a slightly different skeletal structure. If your model’s limbs are clipping into the body in a way that shouldn’t be possible, as shown in the first picture, then the easiest way is to go through the entire motion, find the parts where the model clips, and simply move it out of the way. In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to fix these minor issues, as well as a few tricks to make it easier/faster for you. Adjust downloaded motions to fit your MMD models … just don’t redistribute that motion file and claim it as your own… always credit the original creator of that motion file. Is it OK to adjust downloaded motions? Many times a motion will say not to change it or not to use parts of it… but the creator wants you to be able to use the motion: that’s why he or she put it up for download… so it’s OK to make the tweaks necessary to fit your models and your stage. Not only does it just ruin the viewing experience, but it’s an easy fix if you’re willing to put a bit more effort into videos. It’s really annoying to see these issues in videos. “Clipping” where hands or whole arms pass through the body.Ĭamera motions designed for models taller or shorter than yours. If you’ve downloaded motions before, then you’re probably familiar with these problems: Why is my model out of view when I load a camera motion? Is it OK to adjust downloaded motions? How can I adjust a motion to fit my model? Why do my model’s arms go through the body?
