[MMD] Ariane BE

[Memo Pad]

http://happy-clam-911.deviantart.com/ is making some BE content with Silo9's, or vxaq3939's, MMD character, "Ariane".

Here's a link to his newest video:


The BE is subtle but still noticeable.

I've seen something like this before, and also what program is he using to make these, it looks great

Thank you for posting this. Quite enjoyable.

I hate to sound like "that guy" but I don't see any process in it, myself. I'm certainly not about to turn it away because of that though.

It looks just like the version of her the creator used for this video,


But maybe I'm just not very observant. You know, 'cause boobies and all. He did do a quick one with quite a bit of BE in it, but since took it down from his Youtube page, or made it private or something.

You can get a crappy flash rip of it at http://swfchan.com/22/108944/?wpm.swf , but I don't know where you could get the original now.

Program used was either MMD or MMM. Both are free.

MMD - http://www.geocities.jp/higuchuu4/index_e.htm

MMM - https://sites.google.com/site/mikumikumovingeng/

Here's a copy of the mentioned video, old Youtube rip. Sorry its only 360p quality.

so is one of them a full download or do I need to download a bunch of seperate files?

Hell, no wonder the link wasn't working, I forgot to confirm my account. It should be working properly now.

I think this is the straight BE video you are talking about, Matsu-sensei and Unbarred Sin.

For MMD I just use the MikuMikuDance（64bitOS Ver). Of course, get the MikuMikuDance (DirectX 9) version if you don't have a 64-bit version of Windows. Ignore the older Multi Model edition, all the newer ones can handle multiple models I think. You may also need the various Visual C++ runtimes listed below it plus the DirectX 9 runtime. I believe the basic download comes with one model and a sample project. You'll find more guides and tutorials for MMD, its a bit more popular.

For MMM, the basic download will get you the bare basics. Be sure to install .NET 4 even if you think you have it. They update that thing fairly often and I'm not certain the exact version MMM needs. The plugins tab on the left column will get you some nice shaders made specifically for MikuMikuMoving since the standard FX from MMD are not yet compatible (he's working on it).

Both can handle PMD and PMX models although load times vary between 32 and 64 bit version on the high poly count models. 64 is a bit quicker. Also, I love the timeline editor in MMM, it just seems to flow better for me. I can play around in either but it feels less headache inducing in MMM. Projects are not transferable between the two programs, they each have their own format. The can share motion data though using the common VMD format.

Sorry to ramble on, wanted to be thorough.

Bonus note, for anyone looking for more of Silo9/vxaq3939's stuff, here's his NicoNicoDouga page: http://www.nicovideo.jp/mylist/25667939

Ha, wow. I put just a little itty bitty tiny bit of BE in one of my videos to observe the reaction and this is the result.

Posted here, and by Memo Pad no less. Good eye good sir!

I'm really flattered. Course as you know, it's not my model. vxaq3939 is probably a lot like me.

Though we love the BE, I think there's a degree of embarrassment surrounding it, too. Plus I think there's a bit more to Ariane's character than just straight up boobs. It's fun, but not the point.

If you can respect that.

Plus, even though I've only been using MMD for a short amount of time, I've already come across people on both sides of the spectrum complaining about Ariane's figure.

People will bash the model claiming she's too big or looks ridiculous. While others get too caught up in the BE and poor Ariane just winds up a sex-symbol.

I've been wanting to do something a bit more than just straight up MMD dance motions for some time.

I originally began my journey working on Ariane fanfiction, a piece called "Awe Curses!". Turned to MMD to see if I could perhaps animate some scenes, but there are numerous limitations, it's fairly time-consuming (To make a motion from scratch) and I don't have the objects or models I'm looking for.

Wish I was a bit more skilled.. but.. what can you do?

Warning, self-plug here:

The overall plotline behind "Awe Curses" is that a pathetic necromancer looking to summon the goddess of death winds up accidentally summoning the goddess of dance instead. And various misadventures ensue. Ariane befriends a jealous flatchested vampire (a female bat turned human by one of the necromancers other failed rituals to reanimate the dead) and attempt to reunite Ariane with her sister Aira.

I'm currently working on the next chapter. (And the next video.)

Further BE is up in the air. I wanna make some... but I'm unsure how to proceed. I'm being delicate.

I might not be very observant, so I'm gonna sk the question : when does the BE start ? Because I'm not seeing it. XD

Silo9 is vxaq3939's other name? I only ever tripped over his youtube account some time ago before his BE vid so I wasn't aware o.o

BTW Car I thought you were taken by aliens or something 8D! I rarely see ya |D
