#Vtube Studio can't read model file

I'm almost done working on my new model, and when exporting into vtube studio to test out what I updated it keeps giving me this error and I don't know what's the problem/ how to fix it. I've recently had issues with my PC's storage being too full and I've been deleting files so that Live2d can actually let me save my model at all, so I'm assuming it's related, but again I have no idea how to fix it. Kinda freaking out because it's really late and I have work in the morning but I don't want to close anything before I know my model is ok 🥲
Sorry if this is a common question! I've only learned the bare necessities of Live2d so it's really hard for me to look up proper terminology ;; Any help appreciated!

Did you use the same vtube.json when inputting the new model3?
Is the filename of model3.json different from the older one?

#

check model name in vtube.json ?

Open by Notepad.

If youre still struggling with drive storage, trying to load a model in vts may corrupt some files

Clear up at least 500 mb if not 1 gb of storage and then reexport the model, do the steam file integrity check for vts and then try to load the model in vts

#

Vts will have to create its own files when loading a model so you’ll need storage. Its good practice imo to not fill up your drives, move old documents to externals or uninstall unused programs. Esp for C drive

Ohhh ok i see! Unfortunately i have to start getting ready for work so i cant check, but will definitely try this! Yeah my computer came w a really small storage, i really dont have a lot of things saved but i got an external drive now so hopefully i can move some things, I'll update when i get home and do it, thank you!

Also im not sure if this helps but looking at the model folder the file vtube.json and also items pinned has 0 KB, not sure if it's supposed to be like that? like i said i really dont know much about live2d

why your filenames doesnt match?

marsh sand
#

delete both of those and try to open up your model in vts

#

those might just be corrupted from when you tried to load it initially

yes im blind sorry i thought it was from eve

#

eve is that all the files you have?

#

there is not model file in that list

#

there we dont see, the tecture folder, the cdi3 or the moc3

lunar sleet
#

will try deleting the two, heres the whole folder

#

sorry i want to blur the full title for the time being haha

glossy moth
#

does all names are wrote without spaces or simbols right?

lunar sleet
#

yeah i made sure there was no hidden spaces

#

OH THANK GOSH IT WORKS i have to reconfigure a bunch of the stuff because it's acting like a brand new model which sucks But it's loading now!! thank you guys so much this saved my life 😭

glossy moth
#

oh yes, thats because you deleted the vtube file thats the one that saves all vts settings so if something was broke it got removed

lunar sleet
#

ahhh makes sense, i knew i shouldve wrote down what i numbers i put for the custom mouth inputs, oh well! at least it works!
