After 3 weeks of work, here's the SAMSA(Teniwoha) dance, performed by the BLU Engineer from TF2. Here the dress is designed after Bayonetta 3 and Nier Automata. I put a lot of different techniques and experimental features into this dance! Shoutout to I_am_THEdragon for helping making these features possible!
Here I utilize the flying butterly effect. Each is made by randomizing a pair of butterflywing texture particle. These are then applied to the framed specimen board, the transitioning butterfly explosion, the circularly flying butterflies and the ones flying out of the floating cabinets.
I also combined multiple parts of the magic circle from the original MV to make a parameterized magic circle and applied them to various parts of the effect. They can have any where from 4 to 10 radially symmetric lobes.
The second part of this is the eyebrow and iris movement. By changing morhph name of these parts to that of cell parts, I was able to utilize their additional animation channels to control their motion, adding to Engineer's facial expression!
Overall, I quite enjoy how this turns out! Follow me for more updates on this project, and checkout my first MMD mod with camera movement, include 18 new MMD dances, with 7 having designed effects by me!
