Description
www.youtube.com/watch?v=zO4nADβ¦This is kinda like a tutorial I guess.
In blender the facials are called shapekeys. When I created shapekeys, I basically move the parts of the face with 2 tools:
Proportional edit(Shortcut key is "O") and Connected proportional edit(Shortcut key is "Alt+O"). It's easier(at least for me) than using pmx editor or pmd editor.
The face was not ripped by nor created by me.

If you want to create eyelid or jaw expressions, I think you can do that much more quickly by positioning the 3d cursor at the center of rotation, choosing the 3d cursor as the pivot point, selecting a row of vertices and rotating the selected vertices (with proportional editing enabled).

Veeeeeery useful
I'm working on a my own face model, created from scratch but I was in fear about all expressions to add in PMXE (a very hard, annoying and stressing work, to move any single vertex one by one). What plugin do you use to import/export PMX from/to blender? Blender version? Unfortunately I'm learning "new version" Blender (i.e. 2.5 and above, actually 2.76) while most of game modeling related plugins have been made for older 2.4x versions...

Thank you!!: D I know there are people that still make facials vertex by vertex x.x oh god, if I had to do that, none of my models would have facials. At first I had some issues with blender, but once you get the hang of it, it's actually kinda fun c:
I have blender plugins up for download actually. I posted it a while ago. I use 2.70 because anything older doesn't have symmetry option I don't think and the pplugins work find for me. If you cann't get them to work however, I think I have a link where you can download blender with the plugins already installed.

"People that still make..." ... groan. I've discovered MMD just some months ago. And still learning blender basics. I've ever used Poser/Daz Studio, before
Well. happy to hear it. I plan to finish modeling the head in a few days (I play on it at office, when I have not work to do) then I'll try thsi plugin. Many thanks again. I'll "call" you if I'll have any trouble with that

I only started earlier this year. There's a lot of old users, and some childish ones make fun of noobs and shit for whatever reasons. But before, I'm guessing blender wasn't an easier option. I haven't had any previous experience with 3d models, programs etc either so you can imagine lol.
hope it goes well with the head!~ You're welcom ^^

thank you so much for this!
how do you export it to pmd editor with all the facials intact?
π: 0 β©: 1
You're welcome!~ Β
Well I export to pmxe, because I don't use nor can I export pmd files. But, usually I don't have any problems with facials. Someitmes if all the sliders that display them aren't at 0 it will cause a slight problem, but that's it.
Also I don't know much about crating bone facials in blender.

when you export it, what format is it to? (like obj, .x, etc.)
π: 0 β©: 1
I export to pmx. obj for some reason doesn't ever seem to import properly, and .x files either. I have a plugin that works well for me.~ It's available for download in my gallery somewhere

darn >.< could you teach me how to do a face and hair? every tutorial I find doesn't tell me the tools to use what tools to use and it's soo fast x.x
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, I know there's very few tutorials on that >_< and most are for more experienced users who are very familiar with the program, I get lost even most of the time, but just seeing how they use different techniques help a bit lol. But if you want I can show you how I make things C:

yes I bet you could show me. If I can't learn from you then that's something i just can't learn >.< I just hate putting allot of preasure on you . like asking for allot of requests x.x
