/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

Indies... I will save you all

I've been overthinking a lot about my vtuber model, which made me think
What is more important:
The rig quality or the art quality?
I have seen a lot of chubas with not the best model art pulling big numbers so its probably just me overthinking.
Another question about the rigging:
Should i just commission a bust rigging? I feel like there is not much point in going for full body rigging and the prices vary. I want to spend 160max on a rigging this time instead of going for a cheap 70 option.
I saw a lot of good riggers on fiverr, but maybe anyone knows how to find some on twitter?

>>38697788
Rig quality. You can have the best art but if your rigger is shit, every angle that's not the default, straight-on pose will be horrible. Don't get absolutely shitty art either though.

>>38698339
I am drawing the art myself, i think I am an -okay- artist. Nothing too special but nothing too bad either. I struggle with the light sources and shadows but thats about it.

>>38699005
yeah i've seen a lot of people around here with art that isn't the best but you can feel the soul behind it when its selfmade

>>38697788
I think if the art quality is high enough than you can do better as a PNG than a crappy rig

>>38700285
nta, does soul apply to 3D models as well?

>>38702031
only if its more than a default settings default face vroid

>>38702031
I need examples of soulful 3D

None of you are gmi. Just give up.

>>38702962
i consider my 3d model soulful i suppose but i can't post myself

>>38702962

>>38703126
>none of you in jinxcord are gmi
Fixed it up for you.

Man, I didn't know where to post this, I don't consume vtubers and this is the first time on this board, and while this thread is not the best I just don't know where else to ask (maybe in /g/?).
Anyway, I don't know much about streaming but I thought youtube's streaming chat was a little panel outside the video with regular boring styling, while twitch allowed you to have cool custom chat styles (and is always within the streaming window/panel).
That was the extent of my knowledge.
But somebody linked to this girl in another board and she's streaming on youtube and the chat appears on the video and with a cool, persona (game) style.
What's going on?

>>38703854
Forgot the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnflM-byCbY

>>38703854
you can have your chat appear on the stream regardless of what website you use, you just have to set up the widget for it in obs and have it connect to your chatbox

>>38703854
streamelements or streamlabs obs chat widgets for OBS. You have to custom make it with CSS or get it from somewhere (I'm pretty sure a Persona skin should be floating around somewhere) but that's the gist of it.

They basically talk to the API of twitch get the chat data, style it through their own CSS and you throw it into your OBS. The same works for Youtube. I see streamlabs at least having the option for either youtube or twitch chat integration.

>>38703716
That's a good 3D model, not a soulful one

>>38703990
>>38704075
I see. So people who stream on youtube but don't have an in-video chat (the vast majority) either don't know they can have it with some tech wizardry or don't care enough.
I had no idea.

>>38703854
Basically, what >>38703990 and >>38704075
said. I don't know how exactly OBS handles it, but Streamlabs has pic related when you try to add a new source..

>>38704124
pretty much. honestly the value of a chat on-screen depends on how your viewers watch your videos. on either twitch or youtube vods are saved with the chat. It's good for twitch streamers to have their chat on the screen if they export their vods to youtube or make clips with them. But i'd argue the majority of small vtubers don't even make use of that (me included). It's a nice element to fill the screen with, especially if it is stylish like that. also anon your taste in vtubers....

>>38704246
I don't follow any vtubers, I was just curious about the chat thing. Came to this board because I didn't know where else to ask, sorry about the possible encumbrance.

>>38704246
>if they export their vods to youtube or make clips with them. But i'd argue the majority of small vtubers don't even make use of that
I definitely do. I export my VODs to Youtube because I want them to be findable relatively easily and to exist for more than just one week.

Somebody wants to try to ID the vtubers >>38688453 mentioned? Apparently some of them are /asp/ies.

>>38704791
>neither one of described people is me
Crisis averted.

>>38704791
one of them sounds like me...
oh no...

>>38705389
Who?

>>38696412
wtf do you do when you're inclining but all your new fans seem insufferable

>>38705876
Learn how to tard wrangle them.

>>38705876
Are you playing kids games or something that brings a child audience? Don't do that. Kids are not a reliable audience.

>>38705912
nah just creepy old guys
i get its a smarter audience to cater to but i feel super conflicted

>>38705876
This: >>38705892
If you can't raise your voice to a username on a screen, god help you. Set boundaries and don't be afraid of timing people out or banning them for making the chatroom a place you wouldn't want to be.

>>38702833
I'd be making it from scratch

>>38703826
Did any of those people at least make some friends or were they really all just constantly talking shit about each other?

>>38706984
i had sex with someone i met in the jinxcord so it worked for me.

>>38706984
i know there there have been small splinter groups made from people that met in that server so yeah it has at least managed to serve that purpose

>>38707605
Cublala...

>>38707605
IRL sex? If so, huge W. If not, I guess that's a mild W.
>>38707914
That makes me happy to hear. I lurked in there for two seconds and didn't wanna hang around, and all I ever saw in the thread made it look like at least a handful of people there were really only in it to talk shit about everybody else.

>>38708800
it'll always be like that; schizos in the thread getting upset at people for ing connections externally so they'll take opportunities to make things sound worse than they are

>>38709455
The attention seeking in the discord is real though, and not just Azu

>>38710048
i don't think anyone else was as bad as he was with it

>>38708800
It's a huge W as you put it. I have gotten very precious friends through my chuuba journey. I will "never make it", but the friends along the way etc. etc.

>>38708047
It can't be, she was supposed to be an idol...

>>38713165
A fallen idol...

>>38710048
i wonder if azu now does it in the other discords. i'm just glad lance banned him

I wish I could stream Dark Souls 3, but I can't make running to the boss room interesting while doing a challenge run. It's beyond my ability.

>get hammered
>fill out every question for the application
>write out a script for the five minutes self introduction
somebody stop me

>>38714791
Sounds like you need to git gud at more than just Dark Souls, anon. You could make that interesting if you have something interesting to say while you do it.

>>38715298
>somebody stop me
this is important: do you have a funny green face and a yellow zoot suit? are you currently "smokin"?

>>38715298
You will fail and feel regret and shame for wasting your time and getting your hopes up.

>>38715367
P-a-r-t-y? Because I gotta!

>>38715316
I don't normally have empty air but there's something mind-numbing about doing the same route over and over. My eyes even become unfocused. I can't imagine talking while doing it.

>>38715563
That's fair. I wouldn't wanna stream that either if that's how I felt doing it without an audience. Maybe there's another Souls game you could stream to scratch the itch?

>>38715453
Thank you.
>>38715298
In all seriousness, don't get plastered for your application. That's not even a little professional and is a guaranteed waste of your time. Do it sober. I don't think they're looking for a drunken master.

>>38715367
yes

I listen to miru's asmr for the plot, ahahah...

>>38705389
Which one? Lesbian?
>>38714728
He appears to have just quit Discord.

>>38714728
Why ban someone who doesn’t actually cause real trouble anywhere?
And he has never been in the lancecord.

>>38718918
Man makey me mad

>>38704791
I desperately need the Eimi Fukada lookalike link

It seems the Azu saga has drawn to a close?

Legit question: how many people here use a voice changer program or invents a voice to play for your own chubba? I'm practicing to get a voice according to my aspiring chubba, but can't get something outside my IRL voice.

lex got into niji

>>38731099

>>38731099
Stop coping and let him go anon, he has a much better career now

>>38705876
Hire Jignx to be your manager.

>>38731099
dude came out of retirement the day after graduation to clear rumors that it's him.
