I have actually done this in the past, but I think I attached the physic to the stage's motherbone.  I like your idea of creating a dedicated bone for the physic.  That probably would simplify positioning the physic.  I will try that next time.  Thanks.

Both methods are valid, just use the approach easiest for the task on hand.

do you know how to convert MMD into 3DCG files?

Nope - I leave this kind of stuff to the modders.

Check with MMD3DCGParts but I'm not sure he accepts requests. But when it comes to 3DCG>MMD he's the best there is in my books.

If you're nice to people, people are usually nice to you. Well at least that's what I've learnt from my own life experiences.

my case too but some MMD "artists" I've met here are so arrogant and bad-mannered

Professionally, I'm a 'designer' and have never used the term 'artist' to describe myself or anything that I do as 'art'. I have no time for arrogance or rudeness from 'artist' or anyone else for that matter. 

But you know, a 'jackass' is a 'jackass' regardless of their professional credentials or lack thereof.

Hey,
Firstly, thanks for making it (I was the one who requested it after all).
The .pmx model already has a bone for the sofa in the pic you said that there were problems. Shall I make a new bone again or it isn't required?
And which option shall I select for the sofa design (box, capsule) ?

Trackdancer In reply to OneSerendipity [2015-07-29 21:54:59 +0000 UTC]

Up to you whether to make a new bone. I like the new bone method as it's a lot easier to use a bone to shift some physics into place but if you're comfortable using the PMDE, you can do without.

Box, cylinder or sphere physics shape choices depends on what shape you're trying to fill. But chances are that if:

1. They're going to put their 'ass' on it - a flat surface
2. They're going to head butt it - cylinder or sphere

Hope that helps ... ^^
