Update:

New solution:

Import mmd's vmd motion onto Daz Character in blender, without a mmd model:

Old

----------

MikuMikuDance (aka MMD) is a free catoon dance animation tool, which has many free motion data both for model and camera.

We already know the dance motion can be converted into bvh file by a free tool named "LiveAnimation", so DAZ Studio can use them.

Now, I creat a small tool to convert it's camera motion data into Daz Studio.

First you need MikuMikuMoving (aka MMM). because this converter is its plugin.

MikuMikuMoving is some kind of MMD's next generation, you can get it here:

**Download removed, this is unpublic now**

How to use:
1. Unzip plugin, put the dll file into MikuMikuMoving -> Plugin folder.

2. Open MMM, select the camera icon at the left down corner.

3. Load a vmd motion file with camera motion data.

Now you have keyframes on camera

4. Click the CameraToDS plugin button to convert.
It will convert the camera motion, into a Daz script file (.dsa)

5. Use this script in Daz Studio, it will create a new camera with the converted motion.

6. have fun.

ps: version 0.2 almost fix every problem. good to use.
