My model is just this grid. Transparent means "on" and green means "off". I want to make it so when laughing is "on" all the others turn "off", same with the other emotions.
I've only managed to make this work with neutral but I can't seem to make it work with multiple parameters. I'm very new to Live2D so apologies if I have a hard time understanding!

you would have to manualy set the exp file to set the value of those
vast frost
how would I do that, or do you know where I can find a tutorial on it?
vast frost
these aren't expression toggles though they're linked to my facial expressions, would it still work?
brittle bridge
how would you linke them to a facial expression?
vast frost
when i smile the laughing toggle turns on, frown and angry turns on etc
brittle bridge
are you gonna use a plugin?
or are you connecting in vts parameter tab?
how are you setting this?
vast frost
vts parameter tab, but if there was a plugin to solve my problem that would be great
brittle bridge
i mean, i dunno, but i ask as if its that parameter tab
what would you do when you do like
smile while frown? how does it gonna decide wich one to triggers?
maybe if you use vbridger and set something like a code thing you can do this with only tracking
vast frost
thats the main problem im having! neutral works because in l2d ive made it turn off when the others are on, but if i smile and frown then it overlaps
maybe i can mess around in vbridger and try figure it out
to explain it, ive made a face-tracking giftuber model by running my gifs in OBS and overlaying the grid to use as a green screen and chroma key out the other expressions. its inspired by a vtuber called alpine showtime who did a similar thing
but my only problem is the gifs overlapping if i frown and smile at the same time
brittle bridge
maybe they are using something like mixitup
vast frost
i tried looking into mixitup but i couldnt really figure it out to be honest

you could key these squares to the mouth form and open parameters instead of making a separate toggle for each, and have them instantly swap between like how pixel art models do
i think it would be easier to break the gifs apart into frames and have those directly inside live2d instead of messing around with green screen stuff tho..

Aww no worries at all, you're doing great for just starting out! 💖
What you're looking for is called a mutual exclusion setup, where turning one emotion on automatically turns the others off! The easiest way to do this in Live 2D Cubism is by using Expression parameters and setting keyframes so that only one emotion can be active at a time.
If you're using it with Vtube Studio or similar, you might want to link them as toggle groups using hotkeys or blendshapes, depending on your setup. Alternatively, setting the neutral expression as the default, and creating custom toggles where activating one emotion auto resets the others to zero, can work well too!
I hope you get it now?

Ashley, how can you make an Auto reset toggle in vtube studio?
