I actually saw your tutorial and tried out the function before seeing Trackdancer's tutorial XD
I unpacked MMD 9.10 after seeing your tutorial on the the new function, thanks

Now I can use all of the sword models with facials I've made/downloaded more easily, now if they could create a more compatible MME it would be great. What's the difference between the regular Appearance and Adult Appearance Mikus? Other than that rather terrifying facial expression...

A more compatible MME, what do you mean?

Adult Appearance is taller and has a more developed physique. Also the eyes aren't as large which makes her look more mature and less child like. Also the bone structure is a little more complex than that found on the original. It's a nice model, terrifying facial expression aside.

This feature simplifies attaching models to OPs without having to use PMDe and save a new model, now they need to add in the arm bones like in MMM XD

I'm not too sure that an IK bone structure for the arms is such a great thing.

As it is in MMD, it's not as I have tried it, however in the case of MMM, it isn't a fixed IK bone, the wrist bone acts both as an IK bone and a rotation bone which can be both be used simultaneously and not affect each other as it is only one bone unlike the MMD counterpart which has 2

I don't much care for IK bone structures for the arms. I don't think they help any. But that's just my opinion.

Oooo, they finally have this kind of function in MMD too? That a great news!
Now, that would allow even more complicated animating to be able to be achieved. XD
By the looks of it, it seems a simplified version of MMM IK bone attachment ones?

Can't really comment on MMM, been yonks since I've touched it. But in itself, this feature is a big boon for MMD users.

Ah, I see and yes of course. It should be even easier to animate a PMX object that have complex functions added to it now along with the desire model.
In normal cases, you will need to switch between X. assessory and PMX on times when you wanted to show changes to that item like removing the clip from a gun or you will need to combine them in PMDe to get the whole fuction. Though both can cause some problem in their own way.Β
With this new function, I don't need to go through all the way there now. XD

Wow!
Because of this new feature, Β it will make animation a lot easier for me.
Thanks!
I faved this and save it for later when I start doing animation projects again.

Same as the Physics Diagnostic tutorial.
Another helpful guide there.

Yep, the new physics are really cool. Doubt many people will use them, but for those who comprehend what they really imply, they can be extremely useful.

Yeah very useful.
