I'm subbed to you for the Vtuber drama, today I searched for a Live2D tutorial, and I'm so happy I can learn it from you! I admire you as an artist and content crator, you inspire me to keep working and trying my best to improve my art
this has been an absolute life saver! I create vtuber models in live2d but I couldn't figure out how the actual animation portion worked. I wanted to make a cute streaming soon animation and this helped wonders :D
I very much enjoyed learned. However I myself am a pngtuber and what you described was a discord reactive image. Most pngtubers use Veadotube and it has 4 separate images for eyes and mouths opens and slots for extra expressions that can be assigned to hot keys. It’s very easy to use and opens my mouth when my mic hits a certain volume to make it look like I’m talking. I use a MMO mouse and can easily change expressions!
Thank you so much for this tutorial!! I’ve never done an animation before, I’ve barely even digitally drawn before but I was able to do a basic animated drawing thanks to you 😊❤
this is much easier than making a vtuber, my toxic trait is wanting to keep implementing new things to it then just give up on it after it gets too complicated then half a year later coming back on it
i hope you do more tutorials for live2d soon because yours is so helpful and easy to follow. if you don't mind me asking, do you have any tutorials on how to use physicis to make the emotes and pngtubers bouncy?
Same happened for me, but I dragged the project file (cmo3) from the menu at the top right window down to the timeline and the "create movie" popped up. Worked and you can follow the video again after that.
I got a question, I rigged my parameters, but when I opened the animation menu I couldn't click anything anymore O.o Do I maybe have the wrong format? (It's cmo3) or do you know how to fix this?
It would be a bit more helpful if you showed the whole program, you make changes and You’re not explaining it or showing it so it leaves the viewers completely confused and unaware of what you just did although I do appreciate you sharing the basics.
Rectangles aren't showing up around my individual layers, there's no way I'm messing up something as simple as selecting them all with shift though :( o well
This was a really helpful video, Kat. I've been toying with the idea of trying to make my own emotes and overlays lately, so this really helps. Do you know if you can Import files from gimp2 into live2D? Or would I need to convert to photoshop? TIA 😁
You can generate a PSD file with GIMP. You'll just need to select "Export As" in the File menu and find the option to "Select File Type (By Extension)" and select psd from there.

Nah, you absolutely can. Maybe not right away. But eventually, with enough repetition and dedication to learn you will be able to 100%.
Same 😅😅😅

u saved my life c: loved ur tutorial
WOW. i just watched your sub badge video, and i was like "i wish there was a tutorial on how to animate an emote on L2D"... you're magical.
This was Great thank you so much!
I watched it on 2x speed and it was both informative and hilarious! XD
Thank you so much, that Video helped me a lot to do my first ever GIFS out of my Emotes. c:
Thanks for the video! This has helped me learn to animate for a 3rd time.
Thank you for sharing the knowledge 😊
I learned animating emotes by watching this very video so thank you!!
I love this! Thank you so much! i ANIMTAED MY FIRST EMOTE! the question now is, how do i resize it to 112 px after exporting it
In the inspector tab, there is a resize canvas option. To shrink your image you hold down shift as you size it so you don’t squish it!^^
my toxic trait thinking I will save this in my playlist to make one, then I get distracted..
omg tysm for this tutorial. was literally a lifesaver LOL ♥
ty very much appreciate it
Thank you, you made it so easy to understand. Definently helped me grasp the basics of it!
I can say I was hard to see the mouse pointer... but did the job I wanted. Thanks
job well done!
When I exported the file as GIF, it doesn't loop like what yours look like. Anyone knows how to fix this? ;w;
Thx u so much for this tutorial!
this is much easier than making a vtuber,

great video, thank you! i don't understand why the forg turned gray though
when I switch over to animation, all the film looking buttons are greyed out and I'm unable to click on them :') any idea why?
Me too any help pls q.q
ANY LUCK WITH THIS PLEASEE
Same happened for me, but I dragged the project file (cmo3) from the menu at the top right window down to the timeline and the "create movie" popped up. Worked and you can follow the video again after that.
just out of curiosity do you offer like art classes?!?!
i know you have many tutorials but im just curious
You can use this gif as a pngtuber still, and have one with open mouth etc to add more life :)
please help, howd u import it on live2d with multiple parts? because im importing the file then its only 1 picture and not by parts.
You got to save it as a .psd without merging the layers.
This was so helpful, thank you so much!
I got a question, I rigged my parameters, but when I opened the animation menu I couldn't click anything anymore O.o Do I maybe have the wrong format? (It's cmo3) or do you know how to fix this?
I had the same problem as you but I found the solution 😞
Is live2d free for the functionalities needed for this?
what program did you use to rig?
It would be a bit more helpful if you showed the whole program, you make changes and You’re not explaining it or showing it so it leaves the viewers completely confused and unaware of what you just did although I do appreciate you sharing the basics.
Hey, shift key doesn't work for selecting them. I am confused.
Yay! So I made my first gif thanks to you!
When exporting it you might just have to change the ratio a bit smaller so the file size isn't too big, or lower the FPS number ^^
do you not use the texture atlas?
How do would you overlay this onto a real life picture??, great video keep it up:)
Can't I just do this on Procreate?
yes, you can export your file as psd. I did my vtuber rigging from a procreate file :)
how do you save it properly?
Also, Im importing a CSP file into Live2D and turning into a .psd file, but when I import the file I dont have my seperate layers.
howd u save it by parts ?
You save it as a psd. You have to draw each part separately. So when you upload the psd into live2d it will already be in parts.
If only I can draw simple thing without making more and more layers only on front hair alone.
Rectangles aren't showing up around my individual layers, there's no way I'm messing up something as simple as selecting them all with shift though :( o well
did you select all the layers in live2d on the left hand side :o i had an issue where it wasn't working until i realized i had no layers selected LOL
This was a really helpful video, Kat. I've been toying with the idea of trying to make my own emotes and overlays lately, so this really helps.
Do you know if you can
Import files from gimp2 into live2D? Or would I need to convert to photoshop?
TIA 😁
i guess that you have to convert
You can generate a PSD file with GIMP. You'll just need to select "Export As" in the File menu and find the option to "Select File Type (By Extension)" and select psd from there.
Hello ! Thank you for this great tutorial ! It helped me a lot. I just need a little help please !
I want to animate an emote, so it need to be in a square like 112px112px but it always display and export it in a 16:9 ratio
How can I set my own dimensions ?
Did u ever figure it out
Anyone know if this can work with procreate files?
16:21 I accidentally deleted my character here😨🚨

Is there a reason you didn't do all of this inside Photoshop?
Do u help out new streamers I need friends and help
