You're not gonna make true friends. The Vtuber scene is full of people that will only approach you if you have a bigger follower count. Viewers come and go, they might show up to every single stream for a couple weeks and all the sudden you never see them again. You need a better reason to be a chuba that doesn't involve other people actively, otherwise you will go menhera when you realize that is unachievable.

Mix it up.

Not just in what game you stream, but:

1 - the type of game. Don't stick with MOBAs, add in a GSG, or a zatsu game. Hell, do a Skyrim challenge run
2 - the time you stream. If you normally go after work, try doing one beforehand. Do a weekend cozy stream
3 - the thing you stream. If you normally game, do a tier-list and argue with chat; or do an art stream where you make your schedules, or wigglies.
4 - the places you advertise. Do you selfpost here? Or the back front? Or in friends discords? Change which ones.
5 - the people. Reach out and organize collabs. DM me, and I'll gladly join for something I already have, that I've been wanting to pick up, or that you buy for me.

Exactly. I've said yes to every collab offer anyone approached me with, and even though some didn't work as well as they should have, they're a way to improve. Even if it's just from watching the other and seeing where they fucked up.

>>13682989
I'm not gonna say it's the same for everyone, but most chuubas will *probably* accept if you reach out with a properly formatted request for a collab:

>Hello [Chuuba], I've been enjoying your [streams/shitposting/discord] for [time], and really like [specific thing they did]. I saw you played [game/genre] OR expressed interest in [game/genre], and it's one I [play/want to play]. Would you be interested in a collab?

Make sure that you have a plan. I organized a collab last week, where a friend reached out to ask if I wanted to do one... Then left all the planning to me on what we were doing, only knocking back some suggestions, and changed plans last minute. Easy to fix (we'd planned on being on their channel, but without telling me, they decided we'd run on mine), but a minor nuisance.

you're still conflating the two together, but it really doesn't matter.

that doesn't change the fact that she puts character performance first to make the stream entertaining. lore comes second. the acting on stream comes first.

the lore can be whatever. she could be a princess type character from the past, a magical girl princess, ufo alien or some succubus, it doesn't matter. you can retcon or rewrite that any number of times and it would have zero impact on her ability to perform on stream.

paid version is like $2.50 usd after exchange rates but it's real simple to use from the ui. you need 4 png with eyes and mouths open and closed. put them into the respective boxes. set the microphone to about 60-70 so that it knows when to open your mouth when it hears you. then just hit start.

you have Ctrl + arrow keys as four different hotkeys if you have different expessions like sad, angry, blushing along with your default. make sure they have open and closed mouths too.

you can also just use veadotube which is another program some english speaker made.

I'm planning to redebut next year with a higher quality model. I am a 10view right now and have several regulars that always come around.

How much detail do you need? Generally the process is
>choose the base for your article of clothing
>edit texture
>right click the layer and click “export guide”
>draw your thing on the guide
You can also draw within Vroid to see where the guide lines up with the model, though it’s gonna be less robust than a real drawing program.

What's funny is that it's not even complex details that I'm after but simple things like an open vest or a tight fitting sweater.
Admittedly, I'm not even decent at Vroid but it's crazy to see how much I struggle giving a character a vest without getting surgical with the eraser to avoid clipping.

They're not done because no one wants them but if it can be 3D modeled then it can be used as a vtuber. Human beings naturally look for a "face" (which is why we see faces in places there aren't faces) and it helps us associate with the thing.

Not sure what you'd want to see that isn't humanoid seeing as most monster girls are also humanoid and the ones who lack legs in favor of fins, tails, etc are human on the top half, which is all you'll ever see to begin with.

This feels really anal, but agency chuubas are always getting permission to stream games
Is there like some specific viewership threshold you need to cross before you have to worry about that? Or what's the deal there?

Its really great for her and all, but I can’t help but feel jealous and demoralized since a lot of indies will never be able to compete with corpos, even the small ones. It's really been on my mind a lot. I wonder how things would be if I had been part of an agency

I mean, it sucks and all, but what can you do? Just keep pushing and hope you're noticed.
It's no different than being a new actor or musician or any other novice to an artistic field. Maybe you'll rot in obscurity -- but you enjoy what you're doing, right? So be it, you may never be rich off of it but at least you're doing what you love.
But maybe, just maybe, a corp will notice you...

Yeah but its really hard to not compare yourself to others, especially in the artistic field. Streaming used to be a lot more fun but then the more I networked, the more I realized how much numbers matter. Everyone is always posting about numbers and pushing for partner and things like that so its hard to ignore. I don’t mean to be too negative, but it's just been on my mind a lot lately.

its just an issue for jp corpos since japan doesnt really have fair use laws so game companies can (and have) struck them for copyright, leading to them asking permission to ensure that doesnt happen again. if youre not japanese or working for a japanese company then its nothing to worry about

Thanks, I'll try to work on it! Trying new colors is just a matter of changing a few things with little effort so i will try it out! thanks again!
>>13801409
Thanks! It's based on a theater mask >>13802442
Thanks! I too think it's the ultimate goal, probably because the character was born that way, the change i did was because I'm not well versed in delicious chocolate coloring and didn't want to make such a mistake!
>>13802781
Yeah i wanted to go for flat, but ended up adding cups to se how it would be, I might just remove them as the main body type is indeed loli
>>13802875
drill bangs!
>>13804570
Thanks I'll try it out!
>>13839021
Definitely got some luna influences haha, I miss her...

>>13844266
Wow! that's wonderful art! thanks, mind if I use it as a reference? While your mature is pretty eroi and cute I prefer the drills of the loli and also the concept and body type fits the character a bit more!
But I'm thankful nonetheless! Love the rendition of the puffy shorts you made! (very important) I know the red is a bit too much but you see the clothes are based on a Teater mask from Italy called Meneghino but maybe I'll try the yellow borders too! Thanks again friend, kindly!

Is there anything in particular you don't like?

Anyway here's some unrelated old drawing I did
I was never good but i put a lot of effort in this one.

What do you consider big?

There’s a handful of chuubas at the 100-200 level who use highly modified vroids. But almost all of them incline harder when they drop the vroid. A good example of this is girl dm.

I personally used a vroid for awhile but it was pretty garbage. When I dropped it for a proper model I jumped about 50 extra viewers to make of it what you will.

I'm frequently giving talks on various weeb/game-related topics at my local Discord server. As we're all weebs there, I was thinking about getting myself a vtuber avatar to make the presentations more fun.

Is it possible to use the OBS (or some other kind of tool) to display Discord comments on the stream?

I don't think the incline revolves around the vroid changing, it's just that usually for bigger people, a new model also involves a new setup, new content, and overall them "getting serious" so to speak. A lot changes besides just the model.

I avoid looking at numbers even after the stream. They just make me feel like I'm not working hard enough.
>>13862813
Maybe indies that started early or have the money to get high quality assets themselves. I haven’t seen any recent indies incline the same way corpo chuubas do. But either way, going corpo has a lot of benefits upfront that most indies don’t have at the start.
