- Users without compatible MMD models and motion files prepared for import
Our take on Figure Workshop
The defining mechanic is pose selection from a frame-by-frame slideshow: imported motion is processed, displayed as captured poses, and reduced to one figure pose for display.
What is Figure Workshop?
Figure Workshop turns MMD model and motion files into virtual figures.
Import a character model in PMX, PMD, or VRM format and motion data in VMD format. The software calculates poses across the motion and presents them as a slideshow for selecting a figure pose. Materials, base color, transparency, patterns, and facial expressions can be adjusted before placing figures in a cabinet. The software includes school dormitory and apartment scenes with display slots, plus PC case and car show locations. It supports humanoid models, including anime characters, Ultraman, and Hilichurls, and includes Steam Workshop support.
