Could you build this?

No Developing a standalone 3D format converter from scratch in pure Python without Unity or Blender requires deep mathematics and low-level 3D file spec knowledge. Parsing binary formats (PMX, FBX, XPS) and computing bone transforms, skinning weights, morph targets, MToon shader properties, and SpringBone physics constraints cannot be vibe-coded.

What it would actually take: Requires expert 3D graphics and linear algebra programming. The stack involves parsing binary formats (PMX/MMD, FBX SDK/custom parsing, glTF 2.0/VRM specs) directly in Python (e.g. struct, numpy, scipy), translating bone coordinate systems (DirectX left-handed to OpenGL right-handed), retargeting humanoid rigs to VRM humanoid specifications, and synthesizing VRM 1.0 SpringBone collider structures and MToon material extensions into valid glTF binary chunks.
