am looking to document and recover a significant piece of early Vocaloid history. I recently discovered the Hatsune Miku song "Frogging Dance" (sm1771019) on Nico Nico Douga and became fascinated by its production. This video was uploaded in December 2007, which predates the release of MikuMikuDance (MMD). Because a standard animation tool didn't exist yet, the creator, HanageP (鼻毛P), had to program their own custom 3D engine from scratch to render the video.
As a fan of lost media, I want to see if this specific software still exists. My goal is to verify if the original character models (the Anio-shiki Miku) and the environmental assets are still preserved in their "untouched" 2007 state. This program represents the "Nico Nico Engineering" era where fans were inventing the technology that would eventually become the foundation of the Vocaloid community.
The Details:
Video Link: Nico Nico - sm1771019
Original Filename: hanage_uljp00015.zip
The Model: It uses the "Anio-shiki Miku" model. I'm specifically looking for the version used/packaged with this 2007 program.
Status: The original download link (uploader.jp) is dead.
Does anyone in the archival or Vocaloid community have a lead on this file or know if it’s been backed up in a private collection?
