All four of them are hand poses … and note they all have the pose-file extension. MikuMikuDance comes with four poses inside the Pose folder, inside the UserFile folder. What’s a VPD file … How do you Load a Pose? With that in mind, I like to start in frame Zero with one of my standard hand poses so that, at any time, I can make my model assume that original hand pose. So, be sure to copy the original hand pose from frame Zero and paste it in a few frames before you want to place the new pose. If you are in frame 70 … and you have not adjusted a hand pose since frame Zero … and now you load a new hand pose … you will see that, when you push play, the hand will slowly roll from it’s old position in frame Zero until it finishes with the NEW pose in frame 70 … probably not what you wanted.
#SITTING POSE MMD DL ZIP#
I put together all of the hand poses into a zip that you can download form the Downloads Page … and there’s a picture of all of the poses.Īs with any other “motion”, you have to think about the set-up you need before you can load a hand pose.
#SITTING POSE MMD DL INSTALL#
MMD Hands are complicated, all by themselves! Early-on I decided to create a set of hand poses that I could quickly install as I worked on my animations. If nothing else, it’s an easy way to show a friend how MikuMikuDance works … the way the program can create all of the in-between frames to make a smooth animation for you. You can see, here, that almost instant animation is possible … This image is just two poses, 20 frames apart … with a bit of a pause … before returning to the original pose, again. Not “Whole Body” … but just as useful are my “Right Arm Relaxed” and “Left Arm Relaxed” poses which, by themselves, relieve your newly loaded model from her stiff position. I have Stella the Alchemists “Standing 1 – Shoujo Walk” pose for a demure stance … my “Reggie’s Livelier Pose” fora good starting position … and my “Reggie’s Stand Dejected” pose for when I need someone looking a bit “down”.ĭownload Reggie’s Little Pose Collection. … Open Miku load the “Livelier Pose” … just like that … to snap her out of that frozen “just loaded” stance. They are great as the “first thing you do” when you load a model. I have only a few “whole body” poses saved. Once I am well into the animation and my “creative fire” has died-down, a little, I can go back and move a few bones, here and there, to get away from the “saved” pose data that I had loaded. I want to see my models in action … NOW! … so, having a few poses available lets me load my models, load a pose for each one … and start animating. I don’t know about you … but I bet you are the same as I am … When I start a new project, I want to get right into animating the scene … the actions and interactions of my characters I don’t want to spend time on the little details. I created a couple of poses … not for the whole model … but just for parts of the model … like “Left arm relaxed” … or righ-hand pistol-point … or left-hand relaxed-open. I discovered that having a set of model poses available “on stand-by” would speed-up the process. When I first started working with MikuMIkuDance, it was a desire to create my own animations from scratch that energized me! I jumped right-in and found out how detailed and complicated the work would be.
