There's one Live2D feature that I wish would get used often: Custom Events.
Imagine a trigger at specific time of animation. You can have it play sounds, set post visual effects or even change OBS scenes.
This feature is supported by VTS API, but few mainstream plugins is taking advantage of it

Reposting my #Live2D "survival" guide here for working with big models
From working on a gaming PC to a Macbook with 16 GB of RAM, both giving me around 45 FPS in average while working in Editor.

How it started vs how it ends

Aside of adding interactable Live2D on my Carrd site, I also added lazy loading videos, carousel gallery, etc with responsive design in mind.
This was a fun personal project of mine and I have more ideas to come!

Oh and my Live2D rigging commission is also open 👀

I've been working on my new website since past 6 months and I had a lot of fun with it (even more than Live2D ironically)
This is my first time using Figma. Have a sneak peek 👁️👁️

I've been using Affinity on and off since v1.0. I love how they managed to combine all app into a single package now.

The pages were made in Adobe Express, exported as PDF to Affinity. I used Layout mode to switch between pages, Vector mode to edit the text, and Pixel mode to draw over the images.

It feels nice when an old client pre-2020 get back to me asking if I still have their model files.
I always do, in fact I still host my first commissioned models... those are Live2D 2.0 files, they weigh almost nothing compared to today standard

i dont know if this is intentional but they are referring new cubism core SDK as 6.0.0 instead of 5.3.0

Rotation deformer position can now be flipped instead of staying in place!

I know one person who has been begging this for months...
You can now combine Blendshape parameters, and edit them as well. Be careful as it can get confusing with certain setup
August 27, 2025 at 4:55 AM
You can now copy over properties like opacity/screen color/etc to other objects. Deformation data are not transferred over

New Live2D 5.3 QoL updates:
For the glue addicts, there's a new "hardness" property to set glue brush radius similar to deform brush!
Also you can set weight display opacity

Symmetrical mesh editing is here!! Vertices position and deletion are now properly mirrored
August 26, 2025 at 6:53 AM

Finally found a reason to use @obsidian.md over Notion... the free-form Canvas note. Perfect for planning my new site. I think I'll move over my Notion notes that doesn't require database here
