"Welcome - BJ" video in 360VR format
Added 2019-05-15 20:06:17 +0000 UTCok guys, while you wait for the new animations I am working on I will be making some regular videos for Iwara using random dance motions and will be uploading some 360 videos of my previous animations to the video folder, this might or might not be uploaded to Iwara at a later date, 360 videos are kinda hard to make, well more like they take a lot of time to make, this one for example, if I exclude the time it took to animate, set the scene and light/shade it since all of that was already done I just added a few extra light sources, not taking all of that into account it still took 7 hours to make this one video, like I mentioned on twitter, I really hoped that by now someone would have already figured out how to make these with shaders, guess people just gave up, who knows, once again you can watch these videos with VLC or if you have an up to date windows 10 machine you can use the "Movies and TV" app to open these videos and they should be recognized as 360 videos automatically, here is the new link to the video folder, please enjoy, and back to animating for me.

Nah it's cool, thanks for the offer anyway, I've tried domemaster but it really is what I am reffering to when I say shaders can not be used with it, not even AdultShader, dome master just ignores them, it is no secret this far that the method I use is called cubemapping and is as you describe it, render six different camera angles and then join them, this is what takes 70% of the time it takes me to render one of these kind of videos, what amuses me is that no one has crack the missing step, or rather do it with free software because there are a couple programs that can do that but they are paid software and is intended to be used with a GoPro camera rig and I don’t now is is could work with MMD made videos, I mean it should but I haven even tried, but there is a way to turn a cubemap into a panorama for free with free software I just happened to stumble upon the missing info on iwara’s forums of all places, the quality is just better than using dome master and I think I could even make 3D360 videos but I’d have to test how apart the cameras should be placed and I don’t have a headset to test that, that and of course it would take twice the time it takes me now to make one video, I think I will hold that info for a little while longer but I will be putting it to use here.

2019-05-19 19:52:42 +0000 UTCThis is a great animation for VR. Brazo. As far as figuring out shaders do you mean for MMD renders? I've seen 2 main ways that seem to work the best for MMD (though I haven't tried either). One is to use Dome Master to render a 3D 180 video and the other is to use a form of Panorama effect to render 180/360 videos. Both should allow adding character and scene effects. The problem with the first is there seems to be a ton of setup involved and a lot of the guidance is in Japanese. With the second method, you have to render like 6 times and piece together the final video. Even though both of those would be faster than Blender in the long run, I still prefer Blender for my VR renders. If you want some info on either of those 3 methods let me know. I'd be happy to send what I have and help out, especially if it's for Blender.
