I'm confused as to what you were doing in the Display Pane...deleting repetitive bones or something empty? Not entirely clear on what the Display Pane does in the first place. This is an amazing tutorial, otherwise - one of the cleanest I've seen.

deleting duplicated groups and empty groups yeah......so when actually using the model in mmd.exe the left side isnt all filled up by useless/duplicated/empty groups..

@@jason199506 Oh okay, gotcha. And the Bone tab is to edit the bones while the Display Pane shows which bones have morphs... Also, I still had things in each second white box under the Morph tab, so I didn't get rid of anything in "Expression" under the Display Pane...wasn't sure if I should get rid of those anyway since I'm using a different head. Thanks for the explanation!

@@NightWink129 bone tab is for all the bones in the model.
display pane decides what bones you can see in mmd.exe.
some bones might be hidden, and when wrongly manipulated, some bones will be duplicated

@@jason199506 I know this was a while ago, but thank you for this reply as well. It's nice to have some good help in a community that seems mostly chaotic and very touch-and-go. 😅
