Lvl. 1 | Stage 1 - Download the FREE Lua Model & Importing


Download the Free .psd File Here:


Lesson Objective:

  1. Prepare a Live2D file for .psd import.

  2. Import a .psd model file.

Lesson Quests:

Quest 1: Change the canvas size in Live2D.

Quest 2: Import the .psd model file.


Quest 1: Changing the Canvas Size in Live2D

Before Importing the .psd file, we must change the Live2D canvas size to match the .psd canvas size.

Lua's .psd canvas is 4200 x 7400 pixels, so we will change our Live2D file to match this:
We'll hit "File > Canvas Settings"

The following window will appear:

We will want to change the Width to 4200, and the Height to 7400.

The canvas will change to the proper size.


Quest 2: Importing the Model

There are two ways to import a model:

  1. File > Open, then selecting your .psd file

  2. Dragging the .psd file from your computer onto the work area window

Hit "File > Open"

Select your .psd file, and this window will appear:

If you select:

"< Create new model with PSD file >" - A new Model File will be opened with the .psd.

or

"Untitled Model (Model)" - The .psd will be added to the file we opened in the previous lesson.

Select "Untitled Model (Model)" in this case, and this window will appear:

Here you will want to press, "< Add all layers as new ArtMesh >".

Your model will now import into Live2D.

The model will look a little odd, but don't worry.
We will fix this in the next lesson: "Level 1 - Stage 2: Clipping"
