Avatoon

You do V-tubing but you want to add a bit more life to your PNG avatar. Well... after a few months of development, I would like to present to you...

AVATOON!

A small, quickly-done v-tubing app that lets you animate your PNG avatar with a few more frames using your mic. 

This app was based on Scott Falco's ToonTuber concept, with the purpose of making the setup process a bit easier. (I hope...)

Here's what Avatoon can do:

• Three-frame speech sequence
• Up to 9 emotive states can be used
• Bouncy animation (with settings)
• Quick bouncy transition with custom frame setting.

How to set up:

You'll need OBS Studio if you wish to use this on streams. Or any video software that uses chroma key. (For this example, we'll be using OBS)

Download, extract and run the executable. Then open OBS Studio. Create a new window capture source and select Avatoon as the window to capture. 

Then Right click and find filters. Add a Chroma key filter and set the background color as the color to put transparency on. 

Developer's note:

This was meant to be an app made to relieve some stress from a rather unfortunate event that happened recently, and I needed something to make content with. That and I needed a refresher. 

Keep in mind that it cannot pick up key inputs when unfocused, so it might be a bit hard to use for streaming. But it can definitely be used for making videos and skits. Though it's up to your creativity from here.  Forget this part, global input has been added, at last! You can now switch states off the app, so now you can use this for streams effectively.
