The Expression Editor feature for models

Changes made to the eyes, mouths, etc of each facial expression, like Default, Smiling, and Joy, can now be defined as a set.

So far, all VRM models created and exported via VRoid Studio had only preset facial expressions. Now, with the newly added Expression Editor feature, each facial part within each expression set can be modified as you see fit. Within the Expression tab in the Face Editor, if you edit the parameters of each facial part and export the VRM, you’ll be able to use the model with these changes to their expression reflected.

The Expression Editor feature can be accessed from the Expression tab in the Face Editor.

Models’ mouths are now closed in the Default expression

The mouth of the Default expression of models made in VRoid Studio has now been changed from “slightly open” to “closed”. Basically, the parameters of the Default expression of models made in VRoid Studio v0.11 and earlier was set to 0, but in v0.12 and later, it’ll be set to 100.

Changes to facial expressions can be checked in the Face Editor > Edit tab. This change can be applied to a VRoid file made in v0.11 or earlier after updating the file in v0.12 or later. However, it’s also possible to restore the mouth shape to how it was originally using the facial editor and exporting the VRM.

Before the changes (v0.11 and earlier): the Default expression had the mouth parameters set to 0.

After the changes (v0.12 and later): the Default expression has the mouth parameters set to 100.
