Live2D and Spine

Create Hiyori, a character drawn by Live2D, using Live2D's official sample model. The editor lists two things still to set up: install the Live2D runtime in this project (read the terms, choose the downloaded Cubism SDK for Web archive, and Studio builds it on your computer), then import the model folder. The choices for motion, expression and skin are read from the model; Hiyori has no expression files. Then bring her on in Walk together, an ending from episode 4, switch her motion, and play it in Dev Mode. Spine characters are chosen under Drawn by a runtime too, but you build the runtime yourself from NarraLeaf's guide. The sample model is used under Live2D's sample data terms.
