Can't change motion or expression of Live2D model

[Belle]

Hi everyone,
I love TyranoBuilder and made a quick VN using it. Now I want to up my game and use my Live2D models instead, however I'm having trouble with them.

After importing it into TyranoBuilder, they display their motions and expressions correctly, and when I click on each one it plays the animation how it should. However once I add them into the game and try to change the expression or motion, it just keeps using the idle animation and doesn't change at all.

Any ideas why this is happening? What am I doing wrong?

If you import your live2d models into TyranoBuilder and they play when you click on the animation, then there should be no problem importing the game. Perhaps I misunderstood you (because I write in another language via google translate).

If animations work in live2d itself, and when transferred to TyranoBuilder do not work, then it is worth setting up animations in Live2D Cubism Viewer, there for each animation, write "Group Name"

There is also a difference between animation and facial expressions. To put it simply, facial expression blocks animation of a specific object, and only another facial expression can change that.

Hello. In the beginning, I want to say that at the moment turanobuilder 1.8.4 (steam version) is compatible with live2d version 3 and below, and live2d itself currently has version 4+.
I am working with live2d version 3.3.03. When installing live2d on the computer, Live2D Cubism Viewer is also installed. Next, I describe everything for v3.
When you export your model from live2d (. cmo3) you get files that can be opened in Live2D Cubism Viewer (.moc3), Live2D Cubism Viewer needs .model3.json. Next, in order for you to have a movement, you need animation files (. motion3. json), you can drag them with the mouse to Live2D Cubism Viewer. Next, in Live2D Cubism Viewer, click on any of your animations (. motion3. json)
and there will be a menu where there will be "Group name", if it is empty then in turanobuilder you will have the model itself but without animation, so you need to write something here (write anything). If you write "Idle" here, then this animation will be constantly played even if nothing happens on the stage ("Idle" can be assigned to several animations , they will be played in turn). Next, export Model Settings and get. model3. json. Next, in turanobuilder, open model3.json file and you will see in the list of movements those groups that you wrote in "Group name".

I also don't work with live2d version 2 (you may have problems with files of this version). If I need models from Live2d v2, then I open the model in v3 and export the new one and get the files that I described above. I do the same with animation files. (in Live2d v2, the animation files are ". mtn")

Thank you dude, it works. :)
However, I give up using live2d because it takes more time to load in web version. Besides, it doesn't work when I input a motion into the scene. The motion can be previewed, and it all goes well in the live2d window, but not work when testing and playing. The model stay freeze or "idle". Do you have any idea about this problem? Thanks again.

I don't understand what your problem is. Perhaps the problem is in your model. For example, I found it difficult to create a model because of the large number of masks on my model. (the model was not visible in tyranobuilder, I reduced the number of masks and the model was displayed in tyranobuilder). Try to download another model to check the performance,
you can try this one:

- (if you need sound, you need to adjust it)
if you need live2d v3, I can upload it later
