i just wanna say that your vtuber tutorials are the best i've seen so far! Simple, straight forward, short and to the point and i love how each video covers different part of making a vtuber model so its easy to find what you need instead of having to search in hour/2hour long video ueee you are a blessing, when i looked at other tutorials i felt really overwhelmed but you make the process seem much simplier/ easier to understand qwq thank you!!
Thanks Grinu! Good luck with making your model! Im glad you find my videos helpful, i wanted to make some introductory videos and make it seem simple. You’ll eventually need the half hour long videos about rigging blinking and mouth shapes and hair movement but yea. Making a model is tedious (especially separating parts and rigging) but its not difficult :D
Uwa thank you for this! I’m using prprlive rn but my eyes always shake so much its good to know that im not the only one when im watching the differences. I’ll try vtube studio!
I'm so glad I found your video, I didn't know there was a fully free non-watermarked face tracker out there until I watched it. Thank you for the information!
Thanks for this detailed video, from what i've seen camera quality/fps doesn't affect tracking that much, maybe it has difference in eye/mouth tracking but its not noticeable enough I would say to anyone trying to get tracking accurately, put your webcam/phone in front of you, because angles can work weirdly if your webcam has fisheye o Your face
Thanks Garo! I have a cheap $30 webcam thats 1920x1080 and 30fps, so its nothing amazing but it works fine. I havent noticed any problems. I have it sitting under my monitor and I just calibrate it away in the face tracking program.
I'm thinking of making an eye catching education tools for my future class, a virtual model sounds great, so I just wanna say thanks for these informative videos
how do you crop out the watermark on vtube studio, your model completely blocks it and if i try to just move the red outline, the entire illustration gets moved
Prprlive is a nightmare for face tracking: The face tracking software couldn't identify my iris and so my avatar eyes where always facing the wrong direction.
Thank you so much. But I cannot make the mouth capture on VUP what I must do ?? the face is ok but the mouth cannot open on character ?? what I must do ??
Hi! I want to ask, How do I create a live2d file folder? do I make some expressions, then put them in the file folder, and open them in Vtube? will it auto tracking when opening the folder?
I go over exporting in my "How to rig your Vtuber model with Live2d" video. But yes you put all the expressions in the same folder the Live2DModels folder in Vtube Studio.
The video was very helpful! Was wondering what i was supposed to use when i finish my model! Also do you have any recommendations on cheap/affordable computers that can handle OBS and the VTuber program stuff? I have a windows 11,8gb ram, and been thinking maybe a 16gb might handle it all,i dunno😖 sorry for the long question!
Hi Kappa (if ur comfortable with me calling you that lol-)!! I have a few tutorials i need/vid ideas for you! How to draw a fricking scrunchy How to draw as good as you How to shade How to set up ur vtuber stuff- (like how do these programs work, what do you need- cuz im dumb and not very familiar with this vtuber stuff yet lol)
My problem is my model for Vtube Studios says I'm missing the texture_00.png but I have one? It refuses to open my model despite being exported correctly.
Just wondering, why do you use game capture for VTStudio instead of using the feature to use VTStudio as Virtual Webcam? In my experience, that lowers the dangers of webcam mishaps ^^
I do have a little question is anyone can answer this. I understand the programs now and seen wich programs capture the motion best. Yet what i dont know is, is a webcam enough or do i also need extra motion capture software ?
I dont think you can? I dont think Live2d cubism cant import .moc3 files so I think you need the original .cmo3 file. I dont know enough about Live2d tho.
dumb question, i know, but is this just for 'live'? Can I also use this to make a recording? which I can then transport into say, Canva to add the back ground?
Thanks for this great video. I have a question I'm hoping you can answer. I'm making a super low-budget animated movie and would love to use VTube to animate my characters in their talking scenes. Is there a way to export what you capture into a program like After Effects to composite it?
Does anyone have any experience using these face trackers as someone with glasses? Do they interfere with the eye tracking at all? Thank you for these tutorials btw. Idk if I'd have the confidence to become a full vtuber, but the idea of making & rigging a model has always appealed to me as an artist. Your tutorials are very straightforward and help the whole process seem less intimidating as a beginner 💜
Are you well lit? If you dont have lamps pointing at you, face tracking wont work well. If its making your model small and big when you leaning back or forward. In vtube studio setting, go to the 3rd tab, set the movement config for Z to around 3.
I dont use the phone app but I think I found the answer in VTube Studio Official Documentation! Take your model folder and put it in the “Live2DModels”-Folder in VTube Studio. Where this folder is located differs depending on the platform. In the Steam-version, you can use this button to open the folder: For iOS Open VTube Studio app data folder on your iPhone/iPad in iTunes (Windows or macOS) or Finder (on macOS Catalina). You’ll find a Live2DModels-Folder. • Copy Live2DModels -Folder to your desktop • Put your new model folder file into that folder • Copy Live2DModels-Folder back into your iPhone/iPad (overwrite the old folder) Alternatively, you can also directly access the “VTubeStudio” app data folder on your device using your iPhone/iPad file browser and put data in there directly from your gallery, phone storage or iCloud/Dropbox/Email/etc. For Android /Android/data/com.denchi.vtubestudio/files/Live2DModels Now start VTube Studio. When the app is started, it automatically looks for new Live2D models and creates a VTube Studio Model (VTS Model, .vtube.json) in the same folder. This file is human-readable and contains all information about your VTube Studio model setup. You should now be able to see your model in the model selection bar. If not, make sure all files are present and there are no errors in the logs.
Nice video About vtube live sooo i got a problem, whenever i try to change window, for example i go from vtube studio to obs the model stops tracking, is there any possible way to fix that or do i have to keep the window constantly up? whenever i go in full screen on things like games, recording software or chrome! everything stops tracking, but when i got back to the window of vtube studio everything is fine. so basically, i am forced to stay in that window and i cannot use any other windows, no recording, no gaming. pretty much nothing.
I'm using the free version of vtube studio >< (because I don't have an income lol) There's no difference between the free and paid version right now, only removing the dancing gif at the bottom left corner. The face tracking and settings are exactly the same, vtube studio is honestly amazing. I didn't really emphasize it, but I highly recommend vtube studio.
@@KappakoChannel thanks for the fast answer but I dont have this setting. I only can check Auto-Blinking and if I check this I have auto and manual blinking
I read that the android version cant blinking manual, so I just choose the "auto setup android" and now it works. Dont know why I cant disable it myself in the default Webcam settings.
I haven't tried VUP and Animaze, but I have both PrprLive and Vtube Studio. Not sure if this helps but, I usually lag in most of my games when I have PrprLive open, but when I use Vtube Studio, I don't have that problem.
Sorry im not very tech savvy >< so Im not sure how to check which is least resource heavy. But these programs are all free so you could check yourself!
Hi! When you’re finished in Live2d, just go to File and then Export for Runtime as a moc3 file , at least I’m pretty sure that should work? Then you will have the file of your model
i would deff put VUP at the end, their facetracking is very poor.. especially when you look left and right if you notice in the video, look closely when you look left and right its very stuttery, and laggy looking.
Everything shown here is on the PC. Vtube studio is available on phones, but its not free. Its iphone tracking is currently the best, better than pc webcam tracking.

Thank you so much Dandelion and Bardock!
My favorite part was when you cropped the watermark with obs RIGHT after displaying there was an option to buy it and saved me $18
haha yessss LOL we gotta save whatever we can when we start out
You are a good person, Kappako. Thank you for this tutorial

Thanks for watching Jouss!
thanks for the review, really helpful
Thanks for watching Dennic!

Ok i realized that the reality ( the gacha vtubing app ) is basically the same how to cast it on stream but with scncpy
thank you for this
really appreciate it ^-^
Thanks udbhav!
how do you crop out the watermark on vtube studio, your model completely blocks it and if i try to just move the red outline, the entire illustration gets moved
To crop a source on obs, press and hold alt while dragging the side buttons
So I'm trying to set a transparent background in VTube Studio like you did but for some reason its not working
On the right side, click the bigger green circle, choose color picker, and turn on transparent in capture
The Game Capture button disappeared from 2022's OBS, how do we do it now
Prprlive is a nightmare for face tracking: The face tracking software couldn't identify my iris and so my avatar eyes where always facing the wrong direction.
bruh why does your vtubstudio look so good
TYSMMM it really helped
Thank you so much. But I cannot make the mouth capture on VUP what I must do ?? the face is ok but the mouth cannot open on character ?? what I must do ??

My problem is my model for Vtube Studios says I'm missing the texture_00.png but I have one? It refuses to open my model despite being exported correctly.
Im not sure but I would check that the folders have the same name, for example Live2DModels > yourname > yourname.4096 > texture_00.png
Got a question what if I'd want to place my model over a game I'm player (such as during live streams) is there an application for it?
yep you can do that with the programs i talked about in the video
Just wondering, why do you use game capture for VTStudio instead of using the feature to use VTStudio as Virtual Webcam? In my experience, that lowers the dangers of webcam mishaps ^^
Did you use a webcam or an iPhone for your face tracking?
I use a webcam for the free pc program. You can use your phone camera for the phone app, but the phone app is paid.
I do have a little question is anyone can answer this. I understand the programs now and seen wich programs capture the motion best. Yet what i dont know is, is a webcam enough or do i also need extra motion capture software ?
Awesome!
unrelated question, but how can you import already rigged live2d models into cubism?
I dont think you can? I dont think Live2d cubism cant import .moc3 files so I think you need the original .cmo3 file. I dont know enough about Live2d tho.
only one of my eyes are blinking in vtube studio any help?
i want that doggo, also ur char is cute o/
Thank you!
my model isnt makind any movements idk what to do :(

i know late awnser but you could use a screen recording software like obs and hide the background with a filter or allow transparency

Setting up the vtuber model to be used is actually more complicated than making the model
how did u download vtube studio? Cause when I searched it up, it said it wasn't for laptop
here's the link
store.steampowered.com/app/1325860/VTube_Studio/
check that you have met the system requirements

m provlem with vtuber studio is that my oc keeps zooming in and out. is that a webcam problem or can that be changed in the software?
Are you well lit? If you dont have lamps pointing at you, face tracking wont work well. If its making your model small and big when you leaning back or forward. In vtube studio setting, go to the 3rd tab, set the movement config for Z to around 3.

I got a free model from yt but idk how to import it to vtube studio and I use moblie

Take your model folder and put it in the “Live2DModels”-Folder in VTube Studio. Where this folder is
located differs depending on the platform. In the Steam-version, you can use this button to open the
folder:
For iOS
Open VTube Studio app data folder on your iPhone/iPad in iTunes (Windows or macOS)
or Finder (on macOS Catalina). You’ll find a Live2DModels-Folder.
• Copy Live2DModels -Folder to your desktop
• Put your new model folder file into that folder
• Copy Live2DModels-Folder back into your iPhone/iPad (overwrite the old folder)
Alternatively, you can also directly access the “VTubeStudio” app data folder on your
device using your iPhone/iPad file browser and put data in there directly from your
gallery, phone storage or iCloud/Dropbox/Email/etc.
For Android /Android/data/com.denchi.vtubestudio/files/Live2DModels
Now start VTube Studio. When the app is started, it automatically looks for new Live2D models and
creates a VTube Studio Model (VTS Model, .vtube.json) in the same folder. This
file is human-readable and contains all information about your VTube Studio model setup.
You should now be able to see your model in the model selection bar. If not, make sure all files are
present and there are no errors in the logs.
Except Vtube did something recently that takes up 40% of your CPU no matter what you do, and they will not help you resolve this issue.
is there a way to save the animation as a video? like without the webcam, just the animation made from the parameters?
yes you can make animations in live2d. i have never tried it before but there are tutorials on youtube.
Nice video
About vtube live
