Desktop Mate Modding GeneralNote: I'm not going to type like I normally do because this is going to be a general, and I want people to be able to read the OP a bit easier.
This also serves as a VRoid Studio general by extension, so feel free to ask questions about VRoid Studio here if you're using it to create a model that will (hopefully) be used in Desktop Mate. If you have any questions about VRoid Studio or Desktop Mate not covered in the OP, or you need help with either one, please ask them in this thread!
FAQ:
What is Desktop Mate?Desktop Mate is a program that lets you have cute anime girls on your screen! There are two models that come with the app, Aieru-tan and Hatsune Miku (although the Hatsune Miku model is DLC, so you have to either pay for her or pirate a version of Desktop Mate that has her). The reason this app is even being mentioned here though… is because of the ability to mod it to add your own characters!
How do I get someone else's custom character into Desktop Mate?Refer to this tutorial.

You can use VRoid Studio to make a model for Desktop Mate! If you want to learn how to use VRoid Studio, there are many tutorials on YouTube. It's pretty easy to learn! And when you're finished making the model, export it to a .VRM and refer to the section of the FAQ that's called "How do I get someone else's custom character into Desktop Mate?" to import it! If you feel like sharing the model, upload the .VRM file to Catbox or another file sharing site, and preferably post a screenshot of it too!
Are there any mods that Shemmy users have made?Of course! There's already one for Tama. The download link is here!
