Lip sync with text for Live2D models

#1 Post by minyan »

I couldn't find any information in the cookbook on how to do lip sync with live2d models, does this functionality exists? In Live2D itself, there doesn't seem to be a python equivalent code, and I couldn't figure out how to transfer the code they show in ren'py. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

To be clear, I don't want to sync lip movements with audio, just with the text, so the mouth starts moving when the character speaks, and closes when the text reaches the end of a sentence.

Was it actually added? Can't find it at 8.1 release notes.
