MMD 3D Printing Tutorial
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 сен 2024
- Don't expect more of this, but it took me three days to figure out how to do something that takes three minuets, so i figured i'd share.
Basically, pose the model you want in the pose you want in MMD, then save the pose (facials won't save, so don't bother). then open the model in PMX. open the transform window and load the pose, then save the model. open the new posed model in PMX, then export as a .obj. you can then open this in any editor of your choosing (i chose Blender) and you can export it as a .stl. (you may have to edit the mesh a bit as it might not be watertight for 3D printing)

Literally lifesaver
Thank you so much for this!! I was trying to figure out how to transfer an MMD model into blender without the bones and extra pieces (Trust me the other way I tried looked HORRIFIC) so I could then 3D print it for a class project. This made it so much easier to understand!
I'm glad I could be of help!
poor you... 3 days for only 217 views... apart from that, thanks! this was extremely helpful!
Thank you, wanted to print kizuna ai, don't know what to do, and found this video.
If anyone is having trouble with the print, just use mesh mixer, there are tons of tutorials out there. :)
I'm glad you found it useful! I recently discovered Kizuna AI myself, she's very cute :)
Getting my first 3D printer tomorrow! It will be fun to try printing a bunch of mmd models that I've seen in VRChat.
Thanks for the vid :D
Glad I could help! you'll have to make sure the meshes are clean, but that's mostly just Blender work
Yeah, I have a little experience with converting mmd models in blender to use on VRChat. So I'm hoping I can carry some of that knowledge over to 3D printing.
this is so amazing and helpful!! :o thanks!
+Chaku No problem! I might make an updated video in the future about how to fully prepare it for 3D printing in Blender
getting a 3d printer soon, I'm looking forward to your next video!!
hey the load pose in pmx doesnt work properly it loads some of the pose but not all
make sure it's all registered when you save the pose, try using the pose on the unposed model in MMD first to make sure everything is registered.
If i load my pose in pmxeditor the whole model gets destroyed. I have saved the pose normally through mmd and registered all bones (i guess).
that's really strange, how does the model get destroyed exactly?
+LavenderTownsGhost how do we include facial expressions in the pose data?
I haven't figured that out yet sadly :( for some reason, only bone data transfers over into PMX, not facials. Once i figure it out, I'll make another tutorial.
*select all facial frame
Thank you so much!!
Sure thing!
after i open the model in Blender my model doesnt has a color :( what happen?
Sometimes the color doesn't carry over because it's looking for the textures in a different location. It shouldn't matter for 3D printing, because the OBJ will always be grey
so when i print out my model its no longer grey?
It will be a solid color, whatever color printing material you use. I know that there are some 3D printers that can do multiple colors, but I don't know how you would set up the model for those.
I tried this. But when I load the pose in PMX editor in got hopelessly warped.... While it loaded perfectly in MMD. Any ideas? Maybe version imcompatibility between the MMD and PMX editor I'm using?
The only thing I can think of is the bones not being the same between MMD and PMX, but if you're using the same model it shouldn't do that
@@LavenderTownsGhost thanks for your reply. Will try again but I used the same two files in both programs... perhaps I will share a link to the files so you could check it out? (Would be much obliged.... ;) )
Fixed!!! Problem with decimal point and decimal comma in windows. Another tip in the old 32 bit version you van uncheck 'vertex morph normalize' Which allows for poses to be incorporated better on different models. Can't find the option in the newer versions though...
@@phamoen I'm glad you figured it out!
@@phamoen Hey man! I was running desperate because I was having the same issue and no one had an explanation for this and you just solved it! 2 years later. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!! This is so helpful!!
I'm happy to help!
I've been trying to find a good tutorial because I'm making figurines from my game for my classes! This was a format that was quick and easy yet really detailed!
That sounds super cool! As long as you get the mesh ready for printing, they should turn out fine :)
I am having some problems. Every time I open T my models arms disappears.
