Removing hard edges on projected images
For most modern projectors, the visuals will have hard edge. If you want a more vintage touch
to these visuals (or just that hard edges seem too jarring), the easiest method is to utilise
*DUCT TAPE* to tape over the edges of the projecting lens on your projecter. keep your eyes on
the visual and make sure that the tapes evenly blur out your image. This technique can also be
used to cover unwanted headers and footers of the projected image.
Rerigging VRM models with AutoRigPro
For those using auto rig pro to re-rig a vrm model(i dunno how many of yall might want to do
this), the initial vrm bones need to bend slightly at the joints(ie. kneecaps, elbows) in the
direction of natural movement in order for autorigpro to accurately figure out the
direction.
Otherwise, the minute you hit "quick rig" the entire armature is gonna bend in all
directions and mess up the entire thing
Blendshape animation lost when using Autorig's FBX export function
The workaround is quite simple, but it took me quite a bit of trial and error to fix. Essentially,
u would want to line all the NLA armature animation with the blendshape animation into two strips
(one for each) so that all the bits of animation play one after the other.
Then, when you export, under the export settings, animation -- type, switch that to NLA, and
then check force bake blendshape (or sth similar to that name) is on. Export and plop it into
Unity. In Unity, go through the usual routine of setting up the armature to be humanoid etc
Under the animations tab in that model (Unity), there should be a box that says "Clips",
and there would be only one. Just click the plus sign and trim all the separate small bits out
one by one in Unity.
App forcequitting while navigating Kantan Mapper
This seems to be primarily a mac compatibility issue. For most cases, kantan Mapper's default
settings work and there is no need to change anything. However, from my experiance, the two
checkboxes at the end of the Kantan Mapper settings page seems to be the culprit for most force
quits. Work on a windows computer if you have to change these settings.
