The size of the model is a large part of it, because currently the only positional markers in use by the Crafty Moment method are the center of the body and the feet. Which means the bulk of the animation is being translated via rotational vectors alone. My first attempts at this have been...

I've made an attempt at converting Gentleman, and posted the file under Free Scenes on the Hub.

My pleasure. I'm still learning VAM, but I used to do all this stuff manually in Blender so I know the structure for animation and rigging. I also work in tech and have a good familiarity with the JSON format VAM uses for save files. I've been using my moderate programming skills to correct a...

It's been an interesting process testing how to import new forms of animation into VAM. I'm posting a new test scene now that includes facial animation import. Afterwards, I'll find a decent copy of Gentleman and run it through the same process. The animation in the YouTube link didn't appear to...

OK, so it's definitely possible. I've already taken half a dozen expressions and automated the import of them into VAM. But there are a lot to go and then I'll still be tweaking in for a while. The biggest issue I see so far is that while VAM's engine can definitely handle it, VAM's interface...

Still working on a converter workflow on expressions. Should be able to parse the data, it's just now figuring out how to allocate the toon-based expressions on a realistic model. I'll need to start basic and work my way up...

Well, this should be a handy link to anyone wanting to do animation in VAM - a bone dictionary chart for converting skeletal formats: https://github.com/Hogarth-MMD/mmd_tools_helper/blob/master/mmd_tools_helper/bones_dictionary.csv

That's a very good animation - I'll use that one in my next batch of tests tonight. I'm currently going over github libraries to find all of the encoding parameters needed to upgrade my current worflow for facial animations. Some good finds so far for any fellow programmers following along...

Hi, I'm DarkChris - a Blender animator and programmer with a lot of experience converting MMD animation using Python scripts. While I'm very impressed with VAM's abilities, I've noticed the MMD options don't have facial expression and that simply won't do for me. I've noticed that a few years...
