Creating a VRM Character

Creating Your VRM Character
CineV2026-02-06

CineV recommends Vroid Studio for beginners.

It’s free, easy to use, and exports VRM files that work well with CineV.

Recommended Character Size

  • Female: 160–164 cm

  • Male: 170–174 cm

When creating a character in Vroid Studio, the default body proportions already follow a realistic human body ratio and work well in CineV. If you need to match CineV’s recommended character height, you can adjust it in Body → Body Size from the right-side panel in Vroid Studio.

⚠ Characters with proportions that differ significantly from realistic human anatomy (e.g. chibi-style characters with a head-to-body ratio of approximately 6 heads or less) may appear unnatural in animation, alignment, movement, and camera angles.

Vroid “Look” Tab

  • Options such as outline, rim light, shading, eye alignment, and bones are not applied after import.

  • CineV converts characters to its own internal shaders.

Polygons / Materials / Bones

  • No manual reduction is required at export.

  • Hair physics may appear overly soft; CineV will adjust internally and provide updated guidance later.
