LIVE2D PARAMETERS AND DEFORMERS
Always note that you shouldn't assign more than 2 parameters to an object or deformer for things other than expressions to avoid performance issues! Also take note of the number of divisions of your deformers and make sure to verify your deformers as well.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ABOUT KIRA▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Kira is a peach who was turned into a virtual human by a magical fairy godmother. After becoming a real girl (a 3D model is as real as it gets), her fairy grandmother forces her to journey to the capital to help renovate the cottage and pay bills by working on Live2D, streaming, and a bunch of other stuff. Kira makes Live2D Cubism tutorial videos like physics, deformers and parameters, illustration etc. so other people can make their own VTuber model! Kira is also a vtuber model creator/vtuber model maker.

I hope you also share this vid to ppl you know who has been struggling with rigging expressions!! Watch out for the Q&A stream that goes with this vid for channel members~ As always, resources are found in the description.
Special thanks to Fukuyoru Luki and 2wintails for helping me review the script 💖
I would def buy bald-chan to study expressions on my own if you decide to put it on gumroad✨
Ohmygod lemme just appreciate the EDITING 😭😭 You can really feel the balance between professional and filthy memer in Kira 😂 this is goated
AHFLDKJF thank you so much yuuhiiii 💖💖💖 and ofc I needa edit my videos good for my viewers c:
I was not expecting you to be here XD
@@Karudesu I am where I need and want to be
I love your tutorials so much! Please keep doing them! I am currently trying my best to make myself a vtuber model but im really bad at it but these help me a TON
Thank you! Will do!
Took me several runs through but I think I finally get the toggle for facial parameters... thanks SO MUCH for this guide, I have no idea how I could have figured it out otherwise
6:50 give me a 100 bald chans please!
I love how you mix humor with -torture- live2d tutorials, its unique
I hope you know, I love your tutorals and I come back to them over and over, and usually when I have a question, as long as I know what to look up, I can find it here. THANK YOU
Thank you very much, Kira! This helped me a lot, and my friend who I was making the model for absolutely loved it.
And once again, Kira graces me with a video that although is outside what I do, is fun to watch and understand. Thank you so much for this and I hope you stay swell, local peach girl! :)
Thank you for your hard work, Kira! We appreciate the content you put out! Almost done with my own model with the help of your tutorials. I am very grateful.
You're very welcome!!! I'm glad that my tutorials helped you make your model :DD
I’m new but I’ve been binging your channel and your tutorials! You explain things so well and kira is so pretty! Thank you for teaching us !
thank you so much! I'm glad that you think that I explain things well ;u;
This will really help me with the technical side of things when I get to that stage, thanks! Especially the toggles since I'm trying to figure out making my model (or just parts of my model) transform. I'll definitely be revisiting this video a few times and checking out your other tutorial videos. :)
I was waiting for thissss AHHH thank u
Dear Kira Omori,
Thank you so much for these videos of yours. I had rigged my own model and I know how to work on Live2d thanks to you! I am still in the road of learning!
Thank you again~
I didn't know we could copy keyforms! I've already learned how to use stickers so this is a plus! Thank you!
I'm happy that I was able to teach you something new!!
OMG THATS THE MOST CUTEST INTRO I EVER SEEN!!!! And your video is very gorgeous! I really love your editing skills
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Awesome, I’ve been waiting for this one for a while!

To be specific a Gacha Vtuber , i love all your tutorials it really helps me learn more in live2d !
As someone who honestly is not used to live2d yet
the quality and effort in these videos are ridiculous. I'm surprised this channel isn't a bigger deal
I love your smile and laugh. Great video!!
Interesting tutorial overall :D :D :D looks good so far
Kira's voice is very soothing. Makes me forget about anxiety.
Amazing work like always

Спасибо вам Kira Sensei!!
Good video!!!i love your tutorials very much!!!
Rainy!!! Thamk uuu
♥ aww, i really love this uwu
puh, that's a lot. There were many things I didn't understand yet, so I think I will take care of making more mouth shapes first and foremost. your mouth movements are very good!
Thank you I’m rigging my own model prob so ty
Waaa I didn't know you can copy and paste the form using ctrl c and ctrl shift v... Thank u for this akdhskshsj
ooohhhh! new viddd!! yeyyy!!
yaaaay!
@@KiraOmori love the editing and great job as usual!! uwu
Some extra advice for toggles, if you want two toggles that will interact with one object group (such as angry / excited for mouth) you can reduce your parameter count by making a single expression parameter with a range of -1 to +1 and associating one emotion with -1, and a different one with +1. You can theoretically use a larger number range (such as -2 angry, -1 sad, 0 default, 1 excited) but this has the downside of the emote change flowing through -1 while to goes to -2. Then when setting expressions in the Live2d Viewer you just set the parameter to the appropriate value for each expression.
Hello Kira.. I'm new to live2d and your tutorials are very helpful. I have questions about expression.
So if we have made parameters for eyebrows (sad and happy and normal), blinking, some mouth forms, is it necessary to make every single basic expressions into exp3 (i'm sorry if I spell it wrong) files? Like open eyes smile, half open eyes smile, closed eyes smile, then open eyes sad, etc? Or is it only necessary for adding expression such as in the case for the stickers?
OUR LIFE SAVER KIRA T_T would you ever do a tutorial on something like specific keyform activated motions? something like animal ear twitch only when eyeOpen = 0, something like that!
I could do something like that in the future!
As always that mouth rigging so good
thank youuu hehehe
my model has SO MANY LAYERS that I'm required to buy the license lmao
it's cheaper to rig the model myself instead of paying someone to do it
...as far as I've understood.
BUT thank you so much for this video Kira!! I would've felt like a drew those expression layers with wasted time if I hadn't found this (TTvTT)
OMG your so cute!~🥺💜 bta Arigatou again!~
Thanks and you’re welcome!!
Early gang!!!
YEZZZ EARLY GANG!!!
💖💖💖
I feel like you are having fun I like hearing you laugh
Live2D is just really really fun
I dont rig but I'll still watch
thank you for this video to help make a model but I will ask you where you got stickers and expressions 😅... Do we need to include drawing stickers and expressions for character design😍..so we can separate layers (PSD files)? or does lived2d cubism provide to add stickers or expressions?🤗... I'm very curious about it...
Hello Kira! I was wondering how did you get good lip-sync on Vtube Studio?
i like your laughter its so cute
awww thanks!
Thank youuuuuu for the tutorial! omg im strugglin' with the toggles! This is out of the tutorial topic but, what software did you use to display the keys u pressed?
BTW thanks for the effort and Hard work pls take care of yourself don't push yourself to much
Once I have the money for it, I'll definitely commission you to rig my model!
Waa thank you for the tutorial.
I wanna ask, Anyone who can answer please dooo....
when I rig the stickers to make my models more expressive, it's all work, but when I Export it and open it on Live2D Viewer why tge sticker that I made still visible? And I cant make it Invisible even tho I do it the same as the tutorial (and many tutorial vid)
I just recently ended up in the VTuber rabbit hole and I draw as a hobby so I was thinking of doing an avatar. I don’t have a pc yet so I can’t check the program to answer some doubts that I have. I see everyone using a single file for rigging. I unfortunately only use procreate to draw (yeah, layers limit is a pain) so I was curious to know if it’s possible to import different files in a single project to use for the rigging. Also I used a 3kX3k for drawing and cutting the face, and a 5kx5k for the body. I’m curious to know if I can change the size of the face to fit on the body, keeping the quality (like when you se vectors). Thanks in advance
When you're showing how to open the model file at 9:55, on my computer it doesn't work. Windows is acting like I don't have the right app to open the file for some reason. Am I missing something that should come with Live2D (I have Pro)? Thank you for your amazing tutorials like always!
I got a question, what is the to go camera for face traking except an iphone?
Hello ; A ; can you explain how to work with the opacity?
I LUV BALD CHAN
how can I add emotes to model? i didnt add it to my first file, can I just add them in...life2d file?
Hey kira I really love your works! Theyre amazing❤ you really help my live2d project the rigging was great
but when I import it to vtube studio and trying with the camera my avatar is jumpy(?) It zoom in and zoom out constantly whenever I move back and ford is that normal?
Could be an issue with your camera! You could try turning off the movement config in VTS, it’s in the settings with the parameters
hi kira!! do you think you'll be open for commissions again soon? love your content, thanks!
Hi! Thank you so much for this tutorial. But I have a question how do we actually use the model? Like for stream or a UA-cam video. If you already went over that in a video, could you send the link?
It's vtubestudio prprlive or some other app or service, you could've googled it, just saying
I do not know how to open .model3 file in Live2D >~< it just runs a second time
how do you install live2d free version? i'm struggling
9:19 What does this mean? "Paste it into all keyforms"?
Hi! I want to ask, what is the price of live2d pro?? I really need this information🙏🏻
Alhamdulillah thanks
Finally
yeah LMAO people have been asking for this for months OTL
Is the ctrl-shift-c and ctrl-shift-v "copy shape" and "paste shape?" when i try those hotkeys nothing happens at all ( i double-checked in settings to make sure they are assigned), do you have any idea on what I'm doing wrong?
I went to .8 -> select -> ctrl-shift-c -> assign keyforms on half open -> ctrl-shift-v on "half open" parameter. but nothing gets assigned to it.
If you have the pro version of Live2D and selected the bigger keyform on EyeOpen (any keyform bigger than 0.8) when you paste, it should work ;o;
Does anyone know anyone I can commission for rigging? I already have my model and assets created (made them myself) but I'm not confident in my abilities to rig this, like at all.
What app did u used for making 2d >
Hey I was wondering if it's just editing or a program you use to get the little keystrokes to pop up to show what keys you're pressing
it's built in Live2D :>
eyy its Jono Funk ^ -^
“I wonder if you’ve done your homework”
me, with 3 assignments due who knows when putting them off because this video seemed more interesting: *sweats nervously*
Is there a way to make your character play an animation with the press of a button?
If you are using vtube studio, yes you can set hotkeys to trigger animations ("poses")
I would pat myself on the back but I don't know how to animate the arms.
What should I do next then??? How can I import those expression into my model??? In face rig pls help I’m watching other tutorial but I didn’t work out for meeee
I think there’s a tutorial on YT abt setting up a cfg file for facerig, facerig is outdated and doesn’t use .exp3 files
is it possible to make it so that one toggle has multiple toggle states? so for example : no scarf / scarf on / scarf pulled over mouth? Or would I have to do something along the line of having multiple toggles, and linking them in some way? so one changes transparency of the scarf, and the other changes the state of the scarf?
Yea that’s possible! One parameter can have multiple states of a toggle, you just have to have enough keys for it + set it up in the Live2D Viewer
Cool, thank you!
9:56 Help, I can't open this file! Windows is asking me what app I want to use to open it but I don't see the appropriate software for it??? I don't know what to do.
Please choose the Live2D Cubism Viewer!
How do you import the emotions into Animaze???
I don’t know how to use animaze, sorry about that!
IF my model has already been rigged, but I'm not really happy with some of the expressions and want to edit them myself, does this tutorial still apply? Or is there a different tutorial I need to watch?
Yep! This applies. You need the editable Live2D file from your rigger though, it’s the .cmo3 file extension :)
@@KiraOmori Alrighty
i want to adopt bald chan >:0
how do you do the model3.json cuz i dont know how to do it :(
it's there when you export the model
@@KiraOmori never mind ik how to do it 🤣🤚
Sometimes I go to ctrl+copy parameters it doesn't work! Are there other factors to be mindful of besides hitting select?
Oh you mean the Ctrl + Shift + C and Ctrl + Shift + V don’t work? There aren’t really any other things to be mindful of :>
@@KiraOmori I *think* I figured out why- it's similar to when Draw Order/opacity params are greyed out- somewhere, a keyframe is yellow/not selected on a key point, so the copy wont work
kira for the love of god im begigng yhou please put bald chan two point oh on your shop i want to buy it so muchhhhhh
My anxiety is cured
Vtuber that teach how to be Vtuber 👍
Next video.. how to use glue :)
the copy paste doesn't do anything for me, Ctrl Shift C and Ctrl Shift V does nothing
one question, could you rig a vtuber with a mdp file?
It should be in PSD, I think medipang is capable of saving something as a PSD
@@KiraOmori does it work on chrome book?
did you draw your oc and then rig it with Live2D???
yep!
Im actually curious, would it be possible to make a vtuber model with the free version?
yep!! I don't recommend making an overly complicated model though. I recommend doing a bust-up or half body to be really safe from deformer and parameter limits
@@KiraOmori This information is gonna help me a lot so thank you!
Kira-Sensei I have a question how much does Live 2D Pro cost? or do you have to pay daily?
this is all here one heart 'u' / 💕 wait this is two ;^;
hi! there's information in Live2D's site ^^ there's monthly, annual, and 3-year payments!
@@KiraOmori oh Okay! thank you >:D
I'm 44mins late
But great video though 👌
better late than never huehue
I got a question how do you rig skirts flowing
Watching this when i dont even have a computer to make a vtuber
