Live2D Help/Question Weekly Help Thread

This is the weekly help thread for small questions about Live2D Inc. software.

You are welcome to make your own Help post instead, but please do not post simultaneously in this thread *and* in a new post, so that your question is not answered multiple times and all relevant info stays in one place.

# Getting Help

​

If you are wanting help with a specific issue, please include as much information as you can. Information that may help includes:

​

* Whether you are on the Pro or Free version of the software

* What version of Live2D you are on (4.2.0, 3.9, etc.)

* A video and/or screenshot of the issue

\* If you need help with physics, please include a screenshot of the input tab, output tab, and pendulums.

\* If something you rigged is behaving weirdly, please include a picture of the expanded deformer list. The Parameter list also often helps, as we can see what parameters the selected item is keyed to.

\* If you are an artist having issues with your .psd, please provide information on the program the .psd was created with. Photoshop and Clip Studio Paint are the only two programs guaranteed to work with Live2D. Other programs may require workarounds to make the .psd suitable for Live2D. Procreate in particular has many compatibility issues with Live2D.

#Resources

​

The sidebar has some resources that may answer your question. In particular, [Faf's Live2D Commission/Model Art guide](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xdh4zjhesY4gdUiyyWsCuXPn-zt9zEMoQzZDApwiY8w/) is very comprehensive regarding preparing art for Live2D rigging. The guide is focused towards artists, but is applicable to everyone.

Live2D Help/Question My model's performance is not good

3 Upvotes

Heya! I have a qestion :3 I have a really big model (as you can see) and I already rigged a lot on it. The art ist also from another artist, who cutted it really well. My question is: how can I improve the performance? I recently learned that clipping is a performance killer, but I really dont see a way where I can reduce the clipping without destroying a lot of the artists work (they worked a lot with underfill and shine masks).

Live2D Help/Question does anyone have some art i could learn rigging on?

• Upvotes

Hello, so I want to learn how to rig VTuber models, and I found that it's very difficult to find any unrigged free models, so if anyone has either sources for me to look through for a model to learn on or has done some art that they don't mind someone learning, I'd appreciate it a lot

Live2D Help/Question Will nesting of warp parameters cause any issues down the line?

1 Upvotes

I've been stacking multiple warp deformers on top of each other for the same parts to get all of the parameters I want to work together, will this cause any problems like warps interfering with each other? I don’t mind if it's bad for performance, because this model will be used primarily for pre-rendered video and animation, not streaming.

Live2D Help/Question How do you learn advanced stuff?

8 Upvotes

I am on my 3rd model, I have learned all the basics as well as vbridger stuff and so forth, I'm also a professional animator and have used similar softwares before. I feel like I've got a good grasp of the basics. I want to learn more. I want to become an expert, but if possible I don't want to buy courses, especially since you can't always trust people actually are doing things right with courses.

Anyone who knows more complicated stuff, how did you learn?

Live2D Help/Question Should I just scrap the model atp

2 Upvotes

so my model is basically done, all the rigging and whatnot that you do in live2d is done, however, for the past few days I’ve been struggling to Import it into vtube studio, I’ve had multiple people try to help me out and while I appreciate their help, none of the things they suggest I do worked, nothing, I repeat, NOTHING has worked,

I got rid of the path deformers, I made sure to export it using 5.0, I put the model and texture into the right folder, I never used any blend modes, none of my files are corrupted, and I don’t have any unrigged assets, yet it still doesn’t work

idk What I did wrong, I watched dozens of tutorials and I still can’t get it to appear in vtube studio, and its not like its telling me that the model is invalid or that there’s an error with it, it doesn’t do anything,

on one hand, I don’t wanna scrap this model bc I worked extremely hard on it and I don’t want it to go to waste, but on the other hand, wtf am I supposed to do, stare at my computer until the problem is solved?? I’m legit at my wits end with this

the only solution I can think of is to pay another model rigger to fix this issue (albeit I can Only spend 50$ at most rn) which I’m very hesitant to do bc I’m worried that it just won’t work in the sense that they make it work for them but when I try to importimg It onto my computer it still doesn’t work, not to mention this is kind of an odd thing ask someone to do, like “hey random model rigger can you fix this one issue I, having with my model? you don’t need to make me anything I just need this one thing to be done“ idrk what modeler would be willing to help me out with this and again, I’m worried that this just won’t work,

i‘m basically In a rock and a hard place, either pay someone to fix this issue or scrap this whole thing, irdk what I want to do…

New To Live 2D Having Issues With the Deform Path Tool

3 Upvotes

Hi there! I'm trying to warp the form of a line with the deform path tool and after I set the deform path points on edit level 2 and 3 and then switch back to the arrow tool, I can't seem to move the deform path points at all. I can move them around when I am editing where the points are situated on the artmesh, but when I want it to actually warp the artmesh, it won't budge. I made sure I'm using the right editing level, the tool I'm using is the arrow, and the default form is not locked. Please help 🥺
