What It Is
An MMD-ready, dreamy stage with a mirror floor, and some audio-reactive elements. It's meant to be used with your preferred MMD player plugin. I wanted another flavor of easy-on-the-FPS MMD stage after creating City Lights, but I also didn't want to simply do audio-reactive spotlights like Laser Haze. So instead—particles rotate, the VFX on the floor follow her feet, she kicks up particles as she dances, and the background pulses with the bass.
Demo
This scene is intended to be used with your favorite MMD player plugin and motions, and will react to audio on the lower frequencies, adjusting lights and visual effects in real-time. I've been working on making the stages I create more customizable, so you can have as much or as little as you want this time around. The UI for toggling several things in the scene appears when the main UI is open (U-key), located to the left of your idol.
Recommendations
These are a couple of things that I typically like to use to enjoy MMD-style scenes.

Tips
- An MMD player plugin is not included with the scene—see the recommendations above for a free option
- The scene has been set up for depth of field and motion blur effects. These can be toggled via the UI button or via Scene Plugins in edit mode
- Mirrors are very frame-hungry, especially with more complex hairstyles. Try toggling off Mirrored Surfaces Enable in your user preferences temporarily to save additional frames
- If your model is taller than the Gen2 default, or you want to use heels, move the Glass and VFXParticlesPlatform down to give her extra room
- Custom light rig—good for photos too, not just dances
