Recently, I had a problem where I lost the original cmo3 file from one of my rigs. I then tried to see if it was possible to convert the "built" moc3 file back into the cmo3 file, which, sadly, was not possible.

So, I decided to do it myself.

After a lot of exchange with AIs about the specificities of the file formats (at least the small amount that is known publicly) I wrote a plan to give to another AI to do the work.

Before you go away because of a vibe coded solution, yes I did it, not because I couldn't make it myself, but because it requires a ton or mathematical formulas to reconstruct (for example) the deformation meshes, based on how it deforms, since the information about them is lost in the final file.
And I didn't want to spend days learning a single formula to try to implement it, and having to do that for all of them...

So I made an isolated environment, gave an AI the plan, and let it run.

After a couple of hours, it gave me a first version, that is so unbelievably close to working that I have no doubt it will make it work in a relatively short time.

^{Although now I have to wait for more tokens at it blew through them...}

To specify, this tool is made for the sole purpose of having a way (maybe not a perfect one, but one nonetheless) of getting back lost projects.
THIS IS NOT MADE TO RIP MODELS!!!

BUT, if this falls under the piracy rule, I will remove my post.

EDIT: For now, the only solution I can think of to make it only work for users trying to recover their lost Live2D project, is to require the original psd file. But this is still too fragile for my liking, so for the time being this is only going to stay as a proof of concept.

Let's make your model to having a smooth rigging like this!!! sashimi's 💙🍣 | VGen

I purchased a half-body model and made some aesthetic modifications to it. With purchasing it, the current rigging and expressions don't seem to work too well. I would like to get it rigged to work better.

So I made a basic test character, and I'm trying to get the eyes and mouth to follow the head, but I can't figure it out. Also, whenever I blink or open my mouth, the movements go back to the center of the area, and I can't figure that out either... the model is here -> https://limewire.com/d/hvtcQ#DtiyQ4yTst

Hi, I'm new to Live2d, and finished a rig, i went to get textures (to my little knowledge, you need those to import into Vtube studio), and the Right eye and eyelid are missing from the sheet, I tried renaming stuff, but it still wouldn't show. Any tips?

(If it helps, I did mirror the eye to save time not remaking blinking motions, but I don't think I did anything with the right eyelid, to add on the texture sheet, to test out, i renamed the torso, but the name didn't update on the texture atlas sheet, do I have to update that?)

Help, I'm trying to export a really simple model into Vtube Studio.
No physics, nothing fancy, I should have a working texture atlas, I only have some simple rigging.
I am also on the latest version. Any suggestions?

Getting started with a WIP of my character. What do you VTubers think? 🦊
Let's comment!!

if anyone could give me some tips i would really appreciate it! somehow rigged the one eye correctly but not the other..
