This MMD render was created using babylon-mmd.

I am pleased to announce the release of babylon-mmd version 1.0.0!

Refining the API

This release does not ship headline features, but it completes the last major breaking changes needed to tidy up the API. The goal is to give developers a stable surface they can rely on as the project moves forward.

The reason I made the mmd loader

Hello, this is the first post I've written since I started making a document.

What is MMD?

MikuMikuDance (MMD) is a free 3D animation software developed by a Japanese programmer named Yu Higuchi. It was initially released in 2007 and gained popularity quickly within the anime and virtual idol communities. MMD allows users to create and animate 3D models, primarily focusing on humanoid characters, using a straightforward and intuitive interface.

MMD still has a large community, and all the high-quality 3D models and motion assets created from them are stored in MMD's custom formats, PMX(Polygon Model eXtended) and VMD(Vocaloid Motion Data). These assets are often shared on the Internet, and many people use them to create videos and images.
