mmd_tools

Overview

mmd_tools is a blender addon for importing MMD (MikuMikuDance) model data (.pmd, .pmx), motion data (.vmd) and pose data (.vpd). Exporting model data (.pmx), motion data (.vmd) and pose data (.vpd) are supported as well.

mmd_toolsはMMD(MikuMikuDance)のモデルデータ(.pmd, .pmx)、モーションデータ(.vmd)、ポーズデータ(.vpd)をインポートするためのBlenderアドオンです。モデルデータ(.pmx)、モーションデータ(.vmd)、ポーズデータ(.vpd)のエクスポートにも対応しています。

The detailed documentation can be found at Wiki Documentation Page.

Environment

Compatible Versions

Blender 2.70 or later (Blender 2.75+ is recommended)

Usage

Download

Download mmd_tools from the github repository (dev_test branch)
- https://github.com/powroupi/blender_mmd_tools/archive/dev_test.zip

Install

Extract the archive and put the folder mmd_tools into the addon folder of blender.

.../blender-2.70-windows64/2.70/scripts/addons/

Loading Addon

User Preferences -> addon tab -> select the User filter with Community in 'Supported Level' check, then click the checkbox before mmd_tools (you can also find the addon using the search function)
After the installation, you can find two panels called mmd_tools and mmd_utils on the left of the 3D view

Configuring Addon

The following settings can be configured under mmd_tools Addon Preferences.

Shared Toon Texture Folder
- The Data directory within of your MikuMikuDance directory for toon textures (toon01.bmp ~ toon10.bmp).
Base Texture Folder
- Path for textures shared between models. In order to copy textures properly while exporting to pmx file.
Dictionary Folder
- Path for searching custom csv dictionaries. You can create your own dictionary or download from Hogarth-MMD/mmd_tools_translation.

Importing a model

Go to the mmd_tools panel
Press Import Model and select a .pmx or .pmd file

Importing motion data

Load the MMD model. Then, select the imported model's Mesh, Armature and Camera.
Click the Import Motion button of the mmd_tools panel.
If a rigid body simulation is needed, press the Build button in the same panel.

Turn on the "update scene settings" checkbox to automatically update scene settings such as frame range after the motion import.

Various functions in detail

Import Model

Imports a MMD model. Corresponding file formats are .pmd and .pmx (version 2.0).

Scale
- Size of the model
Rename bones
- Renames the bones to be more blender suitable
Use MIP map for UV textures
- Specify if mipmaps will be generated
- Please turn it off when the textures seem messed up
Influence of .sph textures and influence of .spa textures
- Used to set the diffuse_color_factor of texture slot for sphere textures.

Import Motion

Apply motion imported from vmd file to the Armature, Mesh and Camera currently selected.

Scale
- Recommended to make it the same as the imported model's scale
Margin
- It is used to add/offset some frames before the motion start, so the rigid bodies can have more smooth transition at the beginning
Update scene settings
- Performs automatic setting of the camera range and frame rate after the motion data read.

Notes

If camera and character motions are not in one file, import two times. First, select Armature and Mesh and import the character motion. Second, select Camera and import the camera motion.
When mmd_tool imports motion data, mmd_tool uses the bone name to apply motion to each bone.
- If the bone name and the bones structure matches with MMD model, you can import the motion to any model.
- When you import MMD model by using other than mmd_tools, match bone names to those in MMD model.
mmd_tools creates an empty model named "MMD_Camera" and assigns the motion to the object.
If you want to import multiple motions or want to import motion with offset, edit the motion with NLA editor.
If the origin point of the motion is significantly different from the origin point of the model, rigid body simulation might break. If this happens, increase "margin" parameter in vmd import.
mmd_tool adds blank frames to avoid the glitch from physics simulation. The number of the blank frames is "margin" parameter in vmd import.
- The imported motion starts from the frame number "margin" + 1. (e.g. If margin is 5, frame 6 is frame 0 in vmd motion)
pmx import
- If the weight information is SDEF, mmd_tool processes as if it is in BDEF2.
- mmd_tool only supports vertex morph.
- mmd_tool treats "Physics + Bone location match" in rigid body setting as "Physics simulation".
Use the same scale in case you import multiple pmx files.
