Having issues converting?
I was following this tutorial http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/56420/share-solution-how-to-convert-mmd-s-motion-data-into-ds
It's a few years old yes, up to the part with the CMD converting I have issues. Not sure if I should ask on this website or in the miku miku dance fourms on devinatart.
Basically I'm converting a VMD motion file made for mmd characters into a BVH file for a Daz character I tired using Live Animation instead but it only imports a pose and everything is written in Japaense which I don't understand.
It seems that the aniamtion exports but not the character I used doesn't at the end of the command it says that it can't open the pmd/pmx file. Which is the model I'm using to convert into bvh format for daz.
I'm pretty sure I did everything right in the tut I'm not sure if the guy who made the tut is still on here or not.
I downloaded Mecanim for MMD extracted the Pmx2FBX folder onto my desktop I placed the pmx2fbx.xml file in the same folder as the pmx2fbx.exe
Then I placed the model inside of there also the motion
Then I went into CMD and typed in the command
cd plus my files location.
cdC:\Users\S\Desktop\PMX2FBX
pmx2fbx.exe "TDA_homura.pmx" "happy_skip.vmd"
It loads a bunch of files then says it can't export the model file...
I don't know if I'll get any answers but thanks for reading anyway..

Jade,
Did you ever get anymore info about converting VMD to BVH? I followed the same tutorial and tried to send a message to the guy that created the tutorial but never got any response I have tried many different techniques but can't get the same results as he did.
