Description
This is kind of nice. I can turn off physics with drivers too. So in addition to an all-physics on-off slider, I also turn off ear lobe physics when the earrings get hidden. Physics and MMD-rig are zero-to-one sliders, rest are on-off switches.

Rig does some weird stuff due to physics dependencies, but works fine so long as you're animating. The rigids are weighted to bones in the rig and other bones in the rig follow the rigids. So Blender kind of thinks there's a loop but there really isn't. Animates fine, but sometimes posing is screwed up. That's one reason why the physics slider is nice to have. But can also be used to reduce the influence of physics, if they're too crazy for you. Having the MMD slider makes it so you can smoothly interpolate between MMD motion and your own motion.

Of course, all the drivers work in rendered view also.

Also did a little bit of mesh hiding. Not a lot. And it's not usually necessary at all, but, better safe than sorry.

Biggest remaining problem is that my file is 80 megabytes. Time to clean it up, shrink the textures, make sure I didn't leave anything embarrassing hidden away with a fake user....
