/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

I'm going to shill myself here because fuck it. Give me pointers. I think I got my audio fixed from last time I asked:
twitch.tv/flavorful

>>19436397
some babis like this guy >>19431028 managed to make it work

>>19436867
Does this count as working?

>>19436867
>managed to make it work
nice selfpost. shill yourself in /wvt/ next time no cares here.

yellow cat bad

>>19437275
not even him, my point is there are more reasons most babis here don't work than just being a babi

>>19437352

>>19437482
>there are more reasons
there's just one reason. anons who go babi are self centered and care more about getting their own willies off than entertaining viewers. that's it. everything else stems from that selfish desire to jack off to their own female bodies.

>>19437640
Might as well just start screaming "tranny" again with a statement that shallow and stupid, anon.

Is that crazy anti-babi anon raped by a babi or something.

>>19437709
Probably spent a lot money and time simping for a cute little girl on a MMO game and then found out it was a catfish and is still mad years later. I've seen it a lot firsthand. Case in point why I recommend aspies who are trans or babi to be upfront and open about it. You don't want to pander to cumbrains, try onlyfans for that if you do.

>>19437709
Babis bitch and moan about how they have low viewership while simultaneously thinking they'll get more views for having a female model. They've got brain worms

>>19437986
Has your entire existence really been diminished to bitching and moaning about people nonstop all day on an anonymous imageboard?

You have my pity, anon. Get some meds.

>>19438062
you and your kinda are just bitching because you know that babi is a debuff and you're refusing to accept it. instead of fixing it, you're shitposting here long with the rest of the retard babis hoping if you spew enough shitposts in /asp/ that the entire world will suddenly change their viewpoint of you. give up. just use a regular male model.

>>19438129
Desperately trying to make yourself feel better by putting others down hasn't gotten you very far in life, has it anon? We don't remind you to take your meds as an insult. You have my pity as well.

>>19438531
>uses a picture of Artemis
so not only are you deadset on debuffing yourself you're using an artemis pic to try and defend your arguments? i'd say i'm impressed that you can be this transphobic while also being this delusional but i've seen maybe two or three dozen of babiminded idiots like you. you're never gonna make it.

Post your WIP designs, /asp/. Show me what you got.

>>19438611
I hope you make it, toxic-anon.

>>19438767
Why do you want to use a female model despite not being female? Do you think this is to your advantage despite copius evidence to the contrary?

>>19438919
You are not worth talking to.

>>19438767
>>19438919
Let's settle this once and for all
http://poal.me/qga3cn

>>19438919
they posted why last thread, why are we having a timeloop so early in the thread?
if you don't like it so much stop giving replies to them

>>19439138
I don't dislike babis, I dislike their constant complaining about how no one watches them even when countless people have explained to them that most people who click into their stream because of a cute model click out immediately after they open their mouth. If you're happy being a no view because you got your cute girl model, cool, but stop making your no views everyone else's problem

>>19439293
BRO, READ MY REPLY YOU FUCKING RETARD
I understand what you are talking about but you are talking to a wall, most babis here know about what you are talking about because this is talked about every single thread, just give up on trying to making them change

>ask a question
>get a reply
>BRO READ MY REPLY
why are babis like this?

>>19439395

>>19438625
I just added a zigzag pattern so the design isn't too brown

>>19439588
Is that a Mexican poncho or is that a Sears poncho?

>>19439797
I tried to copy picrel but kinda gave up halfway through, i can't into texture editing

>>19440024
you should stop dicking around with a shitty model and just start streaming. get affiliate, make money use that to commission something that actually looks good.

>>19436867
>managed to make it work
It's been one stream, a debut at that. I've seen people debut to 50 people and barely keep 10, I'd say it's far too early to say he "made it work" so I wouldn't rush out to get your fap-material OC drawn yet.

Posted about this last thread but how bad is it if your design ends up looking mildly similar to a large corpo design? I commissioned mine through skeb right before the recent wave of Nijimales had their design reveals and now I'm worried since there were some design points I requested that are similar to one of them.

>>19440915
It's a non-issue.

>>19440160
Thanks for the reality check, i'm gonna do that

>>19440984
Good luck anon!

>>19436820
>twitch.tv/flavorful
Your png looks cool, are you getting it rigged?

>>19440728
>debut to 50 people and barely keep 10
seriously. whenever someone says they managed to "make babi work" i have to remind them of pic related. debut to 150 after a month of networking on twitter. barely end with low twenties. then go on a menhera hiatus due to the number drop. debut numbers mean nothing.

>>19441060
Hey thanks! Eventually I'd like to. Right now I'm a bit tight for cash because of IRL circumstances but that's the plan here pretty soon.

>>19441018
Thanks!

>>19438767
Stop spamming your shitload in every /asp/ thread, for every follow (you) manage to get there are multiple people creeped out by your incurable attwhorism. You're clearly ngmi.

>>19439369
Bigger question should be...who is complaining? I see most babi understand what will they face.

aspies who use tiktok what are your demographics like?

>>19441276
Lmao Jesus dude calm down. It's just a 4chan thread.

>>19442223
go make your own thread and stop shitting up the one for aspies

>>19442279
I'm not that guy that you were bitching about. You need to calm the fuck down though. You don't own the thread.

>>19442645
>13 IPs
>46 posts
look, i get that you're sucking off each other dicks in his discord but you're shitting up the thread. this is for aspies, not arrogant and self centered shitposting ngmis. go raid /wvt/ and not this thread.

>>19442701
This'll be my third post in this thread.
You're doing more to push people away with your nonstop schizo negativity than anything else I've seen here. Good job dude. One less person willing to post in /asp/.

>>19442701
That guy you're complaining about is a criminal, I'm glad you're one of those people who hate him too.

>>19442906
They seem to be somewhat legitimately insane from what I understand.

>>19443060
Nah, I know all about Swissedtoast and what he’s done the past few years, he’s a very dangerous individual. I’m just surprised he’s not locked up yet

>>19443296
Care to spill the beans while we're derailing or should we just leave it at that?

>>19443296
What’s with fucked yo people and toast?

>>19443372
Not yet, but, if he continues posting in here and bothering others who I see aren’t liking him so, I will.

>>19443606
up*

This guy is still going at it replying to himself 3 hours later?

My first very own dedicated anti from 4chan! I'm flattered be the sole focus of your existence, heheh.

>>19443837
I hope you get catfished again. XD

>>19439588
That's heartwarmingly cute lol, I dub thee burrito anon. Do you like 1800s revolvers and stuff?

Maybe the next thread will be about aspiring vtubers

>>19444160
this one is on topic, it's just shit

>>19444160
That's up to you, anon. What are you going to do to make that happen?

>>19444024
Apparently >>19437780 was right.

So to try to bring the topic slightly back to relevancy, how do you guys deal with streaming games that you aren't necessarily good at? What are some ways you guys make it entertaining

>>19445648
>games that you aren't necessarily good at?
can you make it fun? if you can then stream it. if you can't then dont. your job is to entertain not be a bitch and rage at the game. don't bother trying to point to rage youtubers from the 2010s, you're not them and they do it better than you already.

Legs. Even though they’re not going to be seen 99% of the time on stream (unless I go 3D and do VR chat in the next year or whatever)
Which direction should I go?
Open to other ideas as well.

>>19445648
Collab and multiplayer with friends it up. I pointed out to >>19436820 a lot of people start out narrating everything excessively, negativity and positivity are big things if you're raging at the game and not enjoying yourself your viewers won't enjoy it either. The game doesn't even have to be good either in itself. You have to be creative, I mess around a lot and keep things light-hearted. I frequently take a moment away from the game to conversate with my viewers about unrelated stuff too that they may be going thru in life, but that's just me. I do a mental/emotional health peer support thing to my streams, it's unique and really fosters a loyal positive following.

>>19436611
Wtf is babi?

And STOP posting your ugly design and @
Is annoying as fuck.

>>19445867
Looking fucking great, bodysuit anon. I take back suggesting you get a commission for the final draft. Your artistic ability is clearly more than adequate, you could even take on commissions yourself lmao.

>>19445933
short for babiniku, men who vtube as female character

>>19445955
cameltoe is TOS so you might want to cover it up with something or just omit the cameltoe.

>>19445867
>Which direction should I go?
If you mean between leg 1 and leg 2 personally, I think you want to fully embrace the android sci-fi energy. Leg 1 with the diamond shape knees is gives me a medieval catholic battle maid kind of feeling. The little servos and doll joints plus Miku 01 reference is a huge yes from me. It doesn't seem like you're going for the battlefield vibe, I'd say sci-fi it up. Maybe even go cyberpunk if you want some subtle dark elements.

>>19445867
>>19446193
I do wanna add, consider trying for some asymmetry. I've been seeing way too many symmetrical designs lately, some even literally mirror flipped shading and all like >>19438625

>>19445955
Thanks.
It just takes me a while to do really clean shapes/forms and lines, especially right now at the moment. I also need more practice with doing CG painting.

>>19445867
dammit bodysuit anon, did you really make your bulge smaller.

>>19446193
>>19446268
Thanks. In general I’m trying to go for sci-fi/“light”? cyberpunk vibes. I need to redo the colours and flip around the scheme a little with the main suit at least, and work on some more elements again like the hip parts.
This was the last version with colours before I started with the clean lineart.

>>19446707
If it were me I'd stick you full of Matrix-style plugs something like Ghost In The Shell. As shit as Cyberpunk 2077 was there was a lot of really fantastic design elements such as light-up clothing and personal hologram projection. It would definitely be amazing to see you do a 2077 stream and laugh at the game's broken bits as much as appreciate the good parts. It's not a really high skill level game either. You can play it entirely diplomatically or stealth aside from loud last I cared to read about it.

>>19444083
I used to be somewhat into guns in general but i eventually lost my interest, as for 1800s revolvers specifically, i think they're cool

>>19446707
>tail
UOH

Also might I recommend slimming down your upper arms a bit. It could be simply an optical illusion because of your sleeves. If the ridged part went all the way around you'd get that wide open boot shaft slim legs illusion. Also considerable to bring out your thighs but you're deliciously thicc and spilling out of your legwear, which is nice.

>>19447116
I was considering this piece but I ended up opting for an old favorite the Mateba autorevolver since I'm embracing near-future dystopia theme. You could make a PNG of it and put it on your overlay like Korone does lol.

>>19445648
There is bad then there is bad. Don't get suck for an hour in the same place, it's tedious for everyone. I've seen some of my favorite vtubers do it, and no matter how cute they are, I start skipping forward in vod or concentrating more on whatever else I'm doing (mostly browsing 4chan) when it's live.
If you're "bad" at the game but manage to get through it, then it's fine. Don't hesitate to lower the difficulty. It's admitting you're a pussy and can't get good but it's not like you were building your audience around being good at video games anyway.

>>19446707
>>19439588
i hope this isnt weird but i sketched your models cause i needed practice and i thought they looked cool also sorry if the guy looks weird i draw girls too much

>>19448700
based menhera drawfag. really really cute! I'm sure they'll be thrilled, profile pic worthy.

>>19446707
cute feet

>>19447270
I will consider it, thanks
>>19448700
Yo! Thanks! It's actually the first time someone makes art of my character, mind if i use it as a PFP? How do i credit you?

>>19443610
I can't stand him can you cancel him ITT once and for all post everything about him for us to have on permanent archive record. Cancel the babi schizo /asp/ needs your help if you know something please tell us! I will personally report it to my inside friends. We will help you cancel this guy once and for all.

>>19448700
Wow cute!

>>19449857
you write very strangely but i also share your sentiment; there's been a whole anti selfposter arc going in /wvt/ and while i think those schizos are dumb this yellow cat is making me reconsider if selfposters should have rights

>>19446193
>>19447196
Slimmed down the arms a bit, and played around with doing the wrists first as a test idea.
>>19446974
Going full GITS might be an idea… I haven’t designed the backside yet but I did have some ideas in mind including making the tail a part of some kind of mech spine early on,
>>19448700
Wow! That is cosmicute. Possibly cuter than I ever hope to actually be to be honest

>>19449180
thanks hheheheheheehee
>>19449827
uhhhh now that i look at it the drawing sucks balls so i did another one you could use as a pfp and u dont have to give me credit but this is my twitter lole

Jokes on you that was literally me falseflagging as an anti-me trying to get that retard to get himself banned.

Hey everyone, I was wondering if you guys had any feedback for my youtube videos or in general my whole channel/content.
I'm not sure if the edits are a bit abrasive and in the way for the viewer.
When I play games, I'm usually quiet which is why I do these edited contents and not livestreams.

Am I handicapping myself for not doing livestreams in terms of growth?
Besides the community aspect (which I am a part of in others), I met many wonderful and helpful people online.

Thank you !

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE8H_e_951zHWciykV1N8wQ

>>19453252
Ohhh, i knew the artstyle felt familiar but couldn't nail down why, thanks again!

>>19453800
oh, it's you! i just saw your twitter account a while back and have seen you in chats before; i didn't realize you were becoming a chuuba; best of luck to ya!

>>19455319
Thanks!

>>19453669
Oh you're doing the hyper edit style. That is indeed best for youtube. Just don't try to be another dank memer le so epic with nonstop meme audio/video edits. That field is completely overrun I think it's pretty safe to say.

You'll probably want to livestream full on Twitch and upload edited compilations on youtube like Veibae or Chibidoki.

Also stop calling yourself "VTuber" you won't build a name for yourself that way imo.

>>19453252
oh wow it's you lol. upboated, phenomenal art skills. keep up the good work!

Where can I find templates for overlays? I want to make my own but I don't know dimensions

>>19453669
Cute model, cute voice! Also nice that you don't scream a lot, you're relaxing. You should stream through twitch though if you want to grow. Just try to get used to talking more.

>>19455946
debut when

>>19456621
Can you be more specific.

>>19453669
Your voice alone could help you grow so much, you don't sound disgusting unlike most male vtubers. Look into posting your clips on TikTok and start streaming on Twitch

>>19453669
Watching your train video you're entertaining and have a cute model and voice. You got potential to be big to be honest. You're currently doing the opposite of what most vtubers are doing in that you're making edited content on youtube but you have no streams to speak of. Doing streams would be the best way of attracting new audiences combined with social media reps. Then they can come to your channel to watch your edited videos to catch up which is good.

We need more cool male vtubers here, keep up the great work!

>>19456801
My bad, like stream overlays! (Chatting screen specifically)

>>19456621
i've only made really simple overlays for 16:9, 4:3, DS, and 3DS screens but i don't think you really need a template
just make a rectangle that's of those aspect ratios and use them to cut holes into the design of your overlay and design around that

>>19453669
Slow down the edits, watching you gives me anxiety. You're on the right track I guess, though I get a very strong copying and trying to imitate other streamers feeling. There's very little context of the game itself, which is a bit disappointing. It's going by way to fast, I think you'll be perfectly fine even if you give yourself ~20 minutes per video to work with. I'm a real stickler for originality and authenticity though, you have a lot going for you especially voice and presentation. Keep on keeping on.

>>19453669
I also just watched your Ghost Train video and I really enjoyed how snappy it is! 8 minutes is a good time and it's a really good play by play of the action! How long was your original stream and how long did it take to edit?

>>19456746
I technically debuted a while back, i'm taking a hiatus because i noticed i had way too much dead air and wanted to see if i could improve upon it by gaining some more life experience, which in hindsight idk if it's the best idea, i maybe would've learned more by doing. As to when i'll stream again, i think i'll go out of hiatus fairly soon but don't have an exact date

>>19457831
Have you considered uploading time lapse art? I think it'd be good for you too!

>>19453669
You have charming voice, but yeah i think you should try to do streaming.

>>19458049
I can't into art (Minus some very basic Blender skills) but i'll consider it

A little bit more*
I accidentally a word.

>>19456496
Thanks ! I should keep in mind not to do nonstop meme audio/video edits.
When ever I edit, the first thing I think of is "What kind of meme (anime) edit" can I throw in this? I should probably keep in mind a good balance of "regular" gameplay that is watchable and "le meme" stuff that enhances a video.

And at the beginning of my journey, I also thought that I was pigeon-holing myself into the vast sea of "VTuber" labels. I'll think about this. There's literally so many other people who label themselves as "vtubers". how do you stick out if I'm a generalist? I'm not a "TF2" youtuber player or a "Destiny 2" youtuber player. I literally play anything that seems enjoyable. I wonder if I have to go up and beyond regular gameplay edits to get exposure.

>>19456680
Thank you ! I'm trying to find a niche of not being abrasive/stoic/loud/horny/anime protagonist vtuber. Hopefully just by being myself, I'll find others who like my content. And I'll think about streaming.... in the far far future....

>>19457051
What's funny was that I didn't even know about there being a TikTok vtuber subgenre. Apparently another male vtuber whose name escapes me grew up big there and onto twitch. and thank you!

>>19457076
Thanks ! When I started out, I literally had no specialty. No singing, drawing or cooking or what not. I refused to enter obscurity, and thought that the one big thing and 99% of other vtubers are not doing.. are uploading/vaulting editing videos of their content. I met many amazing livestreaming vtubers, I hope they can also jump on the trend of sharing their memorable moments online.

>>19457671
Thank you. You're right about giving content about the game. The viewer would have no idea what the fk is going on if I'm going edit to edit. I'll keep that in mind. Maybe I'll try narrating or at least reading outline dialogue given in games and reacting to it better. This 100%

>>19457778
Chilla? The group/person that makes these horror games usually take 1-2hrs to beat. Editing takes me a little over 1 week. I at MAX record 2 hours and cut down if I have more. Screw editing, I have life obligations haha

>>19458094
Thank you ! And maybe...


Thank you all for the wonderful suggestions. Before starting out I received many criticisms with earlier videos (rightfully so), and I'm still trying to find a good balance of edits that represent me. I'll be more mindful and make sure its not too intrusive. And for the external social media stuff, I'm fully aware that I'm handicapping myself after reading these comments.

And for people wondering why I chose my model to look the way it is. It's because I find it the closest resemblance to me. Buff, edgy, sharp chin, demonic looking, adventure quest ( i miss this game ) looking mofos wasn't doing it for me or the "character".

Hope everyone has a good day ~

I also promise to god i won't be a coomer baiting vtuber

>>19459649
Think of a more creative/engaging title or use your own name. The latter might take some time to work effectively, it's a bit circumstantial usually best for clippers once the streamer is already established.

But yeah I had very little idea what was going on in the train video. Though you have good editing skills, if you want to opt for le meme that's fine, just tastefully. I indeed found it abrasive, personally. My streams are usually 3 hours long unedited at all though so, I'm biased. Some anon's seemed to like the fast food style.

>>19460657
You're right on about the naming thing. I was waiting to grow bigger before throwing the name in. Also train video... it was literally get on a train, mini objectives, restart the day, repeat haha. I'll have to be mindful on that. Thanks for the feedback bro

>>19459649
>>19460657
I've been experimenting with different types of video titles in >>19437180. My intentions are to foster a cult following of regular viewers, but youtube territory is undeniably dominated by clickbait titles and thumbnails. Thumbnails alone take priority if you ask me. Something close-cropped that stands out clearly has worked very well for me, even if the video itself was spontaneous and had zero effort on presentation, pic related. I rely on direct and close networking with my viewers/communities, my specialty is engaging individuals not cateringto the masses or editing/tech. It's made me and mine much happier to be honest. Actually on that note, I have been looking for a video editor commission and more actually streams aspies. SwissedToast#1337 if you want.

I really encourage you to be yourself and find others like you and who like your content. It doesn't seem to me that you're streaming for money and loads of views, if that is the case I really recommend quality over quantity emphasis on your viewers, less the actual editing.

Don't know if there are nsfw chuubas artists right now here, but...

>on Picarto you can got monthly subs and donos, but you can't have vods without paying premium.

>Piczel has a free recording function, that can archive automatically your streams, also can make timelapses from it. Doesn't have subs or donos at the moment.

>Pixiv Sketch is nsfw and sfw, you can work nsfw censoring it by a function that mosaics your screen for spectators. This platform is a child from Pixiv itself, so you now that you can have access to gallery, requests/comms and fanbox.

Preferably, have an established audience or followers that are interested on this types of artwork, for trying to concentrate em there whenever you want to share your process on lewd stuff, or interact with your followers while you work.

>>19461521
What about pomf.tv?

Is there a good place to get constructive criticism on a model's proportions/anatomy?

>>19461249
The busted lightbulb and ew blood parts were my favorite btw. I don't know if you keep it strictly time sequential but if so good choice putting the red light district clip right after the ew blood. Surprisingly enjoyable, though I still have an inexplicable urge to bully your avatar.

Take care of your health and needs first, so that you can be your best self. But don't be afraid to show less than your best. Last thing I'll say is start full-length streamer now rather than far far future. Making mistakes and sucking when you first start is important. Getting over the ZERO VIEWS boogeyman is very important if you're in this for self-satisfaction. Streaming therapeutically has been really powerful for me and a lot of others I know, you're basically forced to confront all your weaknesses and shortcomings. Embrace it. No pain, no gain.

For the love of God don't delete your shit either. Being able to see your progress is how you develop actual self-esteem that's not reliant on material things or other people. Good night.

Halfway I realized I might as well make a death montage which is the only saving grace of me not deleting it. Also, I promise not to delete anything. Its always good to see my growth. Thank you!

>>19461293
Thank you for your wisdom! I'm going to try see how different thumbnails will work.

>>19461866
Uuuugh, you're right.
>>19462002
Thank you anon, I appreciate it.
This is what I have so far. I wanted to move on to inking, but I'm getting in my own head. I feel like the legs are too long/torso is too short, the ribcage-y area is too narrow, and the hips are misshapen or too wide. Everything feels just a bit off, but I don't know enough about anatomy or art to know how. Feedback would be super appreciated!

The legs seem to be a tad to long, outside of that it looks fine. I doubt you even need to change it, once you get it all inked up and dressed up I'm sure it'll be great.

you sound like a total retard. ever heard the proverb "to each his/her own" you ESL nigger?

I want to record my voice and in-game sounds as separate tracks in addition to the video. What's the best way to do so?

>>19472325
Audacity.org

>>19472325
OBS already does this you'll just have to record locally.

I just started using OBS since I started streaming this week and it is a really impressive piece of software

Cute.

Why do any of you want to be a vtuber? It's extremely unlikely you'll grow and be able to make any money. Time spent in an actual career or education/training to lead to a career is more beneficial financially. Hell, you're more likely getting lucky on the stock market or some shitty cryptocurrency than by vtubing. Even if money is not your motivation, you still won't grow enough to have any real audience. 99% of you care about growth a lot, so don't give me any bullshit that you don't want to get bigger and are content being a 2view. Your free time could be more productive or relaxing by not being a chuuba needing to try to grow and entertain a nonexistent audience. It makes no sense to keep going down this road.

>>19476604
validation through viewers is pretty strong dopamine hit. watching other vtubs break down from getting showered with (seemingly) love / money seems amazing so people wanna do it too. i know i just want attention, i want people to listen to me every day without me having to worry about friendships or anything

>>19476604
Seems like fun, can't hurt to try.

>>19476604
I'm rich so i don't care.

>>19476604
I'm at my 30s and I'm yet to find something to do in my life that will ignite me with any passion, since last few years I've been extremely bored. Might as well become anime character

>>19476604
In an alternate universe someone gave this advice to your oshi and you never got to watch them stream :)

>>19476604
Anon you'll be surprised at how many wall street type of guys that want to be a chuuba. Money doesn't translate into fulfillment or happiness

>I want to be a vtuber... CAUSE I JUST DO, OKAY?
This is literally the caliber of responses I am getting. I see. Well, you do what you want. It's just extremely illogical and counterproductive to become one in the current market.

>>19477557

Yes that is his intended purpose.

>>19477557
>in the current market
People have been saying this for a year and new chuubas have been growing the entire time. "oversaturated" is a meme, there's always new streamers growing if they're actually trying, most people here just aren't putting forth any real effort

>>19476604
I'm 30 years old, not married, and have no passions for anything I do in my free time. I will sometimes load up a PC game on a Friday night after work, and play through until the sun comes up on Saturday. Wander to the shops, get some microwave burgers, come back, have a nap, do it again Saturday night.
Go to work on Monday
>"did you do anything nice this weekend?"
>"Oh yeah, we took the kids out!"
>"I went on a date, went well, seeing her again on Wednesday!"
What the fuck do I say? I spent 30 hours hunched over like a quaver, only taking a break to go pump iron, do a shit, or jerk off?
vtubing lets me pretend I'm making something of myself. These 15 people want to come watch me play games and mainline coffee, so obviously I'm not a waste of the thousands my parents spent raising me.

n-NYAA?

hello, kinda wanna get into it as a hobby, but i'd like opinions from strangers in the internet about my voice. im male (pls b kind)

mic is a little bit scuffed and i'm not exactly sure how to fix my voice quality but i thought i'd go out there and upload a .wav to vocaroo anyway, here:
https://vocaroo.com/1oePyo93aJOC

>>19479966
Are you recorded that in Kyiv underground.

>>19480903
ya

>live2d has barely any written documentation, it's all fucking videos
This is so frustrating.

>>19479966
Aside from the fact that you're spitting into the mic, it sounds just like mine. Like a 12 year old nerdy boy. Better luck finding something else you like to doing.

>>19484304
Just create a Yankee kid model anon, no voice is "bad" voice.

>>19476604
I want to be one because I feel like I have a good chance of making it into Hololive or Nijisanji as my audience grows. I'm enjoying myself either way, and it doesn't get in the way of my studies or personal relationships so I don't really have anything to lose. I only invested money in my avatar and streaming equipment that I could afford to lose.

>>19484885
Maybe, but there are voices better than others. If I can't be a vtuber that makes enough to feed myself then what's the point?

>>19485372
Enjoying yourself streaming?

Any (other) thoughts on hairpin ideas?
Heart pin idea was from someone else based on some earlier ideas/concepts that I had (heart ahoge, heart-shaped hair halo lighting)

>>19476604
It looked like fun more than anything for me.

Guys I am having problems with an artist that I commissioned for a drawing and she is getting very problematic and is giving me a lot of excuses more than anything that she has problems with her mother and lost her sister things that I think she is making up I really think she is one of the only artists that gave me problems but I told her that there was no problem to wait then she mentioned that she would return half the money and that she did not feel like continuing with the commission I told her that there was no problem, but then she mentioned that she will continue with the commission.
what the fuck is her problem?

I hate people, they are so noisy for no good reason, no wonder they are unable to think for themselves, they don't leave space for thinking, they constantly need to fill space with fucking noise. LET ME THINK YOU SACKS OF SHIT, I WILL NGMI IF YOU KEEP OCCUPYING MY SPACE WITH YOUR RETARDATION.
Yes I was trying to actually work on my character but it's impossible now because I keep getting distracted by the retarded and excessively noisy chatter of neighbors.
Good thing with a streaming audience is that you don't have to hear the mindless chatter

Now give him shota model he will gain a lot pedo fans.

>>19488968
Also when he mentioned to me all his problems with his mother and the death of his son and that he could not continue on his alternate account he mentioned that he opened more commisssions.

How do I deal with the fact that the only times I can stream is when my favorite streamers like to stream, and I like to put their stream on the side monitor while playing games, so I would be missing on their streams if I were to stream? Yeah I know I can always watch the VOD later but it isn't as valuable to me as catching the stream live. Basically im having trouble transitioning from viewer to streamer

>>19489245
If streaming is important to you, you will stream

>>19489245
>the only times I can stream is when my favorite streamers like to stream
Cut the bullshit. I know there are other moments you can stream.

is it based or cringe if i put a little bit of Red Vox into my stream-friendly playlist (for brbs, starting soon, etc.)

>>19491218
Kinda based, but the general rule is to stay away from copyrighted stuff.

Is it a good idea to spam follows for new vtubers around my range on Twitter? Should I be consistent on replying to random vtuber tweets? If not, how do you even do the funny networking? What are some helpful tips? My apologies for this common question. I literally can't wrap my head around how others can make networking work no matter how many times I keep on seeing it.

>>19492365
if i remember correctly i saw a tweet from the band saying that they try to keep their music stream/video-friendly, so i should be good

>>19492489
most of the other music in the playlist is likely gonna be game soundtrack stuff lol

>>19492416
I start with follow and networking to chuubas with 100-200 followers first, then check his/her following and find chuubas that a bit more followers than him then repeat.

>>19492416
interact with smaller vtubers that you'd actually want to see yourself interacting with, don't just spam reply on whatever pops up

in the most non self pitying way ever, do you guys see success for someone with a voice that isn't generally appealing?

my voice is deep but like, in a feminine way and i feel like it just comes off like i'm straight up a tomboy / woman at times, and i feel like it just isn't an appealing / marketable voice in any aspect. if i shell out for an expensive model, will that be enough to carry me?

>>19493092
I don't think you should rely on an expensive model to improve your self-image. Look at what you've posted here:
>i feel like it just comes off like i'm straight up a tomboy / woman at times
>i feel like it just isn't an appealing / marketable voice in any aspect
If I had to guess, those are conclusions you probably came to on your own and not ones you developed from any external criticism, right?
You could always post a vocaroo here and see what the thread thinks of your voice.

>>19493092
need vocaroo to properly form an opinion on you, but for a non standard / unique voice, it's usually more about confidence than anything.
also, if you can properly pull off a tomboy there's a market for that

>>19492416
The general consensus is that it doesn't translate to views. Do what >>19492647 says instead. Talk to youtubers you actually like to collab with them. You'll have a better synergy if you interact with people you personnaly click with, thus bring up better quality streams. People gather more around these streams, you should know. Ask yourself what were your favorite collabs and you'll see.

>>19493204
>>19493310
https://voca.ro/1nvt8727puUG

here is my vocaroo, sorry i didn't really know what to say! i currently do pursue vtuber activites but i've recieved hatemail on twitter before saying that i sound too feminine / my voice doesn't suit my model so it's made me a bit insecure; my voice does get higher when i'm having fun / laughing (or if i've been talking for hours on end my voice wears pretty thin) which i'm generally doing during stream so i get why that would be a criticism, but i'm just unsure what to make of it from here

>>19493559
I don't think you really have anything to worry about.
Your voice does sound a little boyish, but I think people sending you hatemail, assuming you're not exaggerating by calling it that, says more about them than it does you.

>>19493559
show model

I have a shitton of streamkit icon browser sources (from OBS) of people who stop by the stream to talk, but there's like 20 of them which chews up memory usage. Is there an efficient way to deactivate them individually or altogether without completely deleting the sources?

>>19493559
You sound cute, anon. Softboy vibes. Bound to piss of some 'manlier than thou' dudes. Block them and move on.
As for model, it can be difficult to match voice and model so take it slowly. Come up with a design and get lots of feedback from everywhere before you decide to splurge.

>>19477557
Anon, you should accept that there are people that follow this as a hobby, not only like a market.
Also, your logic is kinda wonky to me. Following he same formula, basically being an indie artist, vidya dev, musician or any other discipline is worthless because the oversaturation of the market. Same for originality on the content.
Please, do what you enjoy, not everything should give you smth on return more than personal enjoyment, except you are looking for that ofc.

i will take this down shortly but this is my model, i think maybe it's a bit too 'ikemen' style for my voice

>>19493869
thank you! i will keep this advice in mind, and you're right. if theres any sort of avatar you think would be a better fit, i'd love to get a general idea of where to start for a more suitable design! i really appreciate your advice

I don't know if you guys can help me, but there was a (pretty) small, (I think independent as well) VTuber I used to watch, but I can't find her channel or remember her name. She was a Japanese VTuber and did occasional English streams. She had white hair. I'm pretty sure she didn't have fox/cat ears or any sort of animal design, but I might be wrong. The only game I remember her playing (and I think it was an English stream) was "Getting Over It." The title of video/stream was in poor English, and was something similar to "I Will Not Let the Pot Defeat Me!" or something like that. Any ideas?

>>19497625
Looks fine, don't listen to the faggots saying your voice don't fit.

>>19497625
considering the vocaroo was off your phone, i think the voice fits just fine, anon. i dont personally get what the other people were saying about your model not fitting, it seems like u have the personality for it too, so even if it sounds a bit offish to some (though it personally just hits the spot for me), i think it fits very well

>>19492365
Copyright Music is a non-issue if you separate audio sources so it doesn't show on the VOD. There's probably been a dozen or less live DMCAs since the labels' big crackdown and none of them were music related and all of them were towards massive streamers.

>>19497625
Voice definitely fits, don't change a thing.

Go read the Babi discourse from the last thread.

Do you guys have a separate steam account for vtubing? I know some games show your username and I'd rather not have people who know me to find out I'm streaming. I know I'll probably have to rebuy games so I'm not sure if it's worth it?

literal nazis and alt right schizo chuubas do not engage with them. they're not even lolcows.

What do you think about transition scenes and end screens, /asp/? Worth investing the time into to make, or not really worth the hassle?

>>19501460
Fuck off with your reverse psychology.

>>19502812
transition screens and end screen are all about production value, otherwise they are pointless. What is good though is a waiting screen for before starting the stream, allows you to sort things out while showing you're there, and very useful for when you need to have a leak, take a break or go eat something.

Never ever ever give some rando on the internet your bank account and routing number because they claim they don't have a credit card/paypal and want to do a donation by bank transfer. They will empty your account. Your bank will gladly transfer over more money than you have and charge you an overdraft fee (good idea to call your bank and have them turn off overdraft protection too.) It's like giving them the 12 numbers on the front of a credit card, 3 digits on the back, and expiration date, except without any consumer protections.

It seems like common sense but if you've only used your bank account to cash a check from your grandma, you might not know how it works.

>>19502812
buy a cheap stinger and cheap end screen but they dont matter. customization like that is unneeded before you even have basics down. either buy something cheap and premade or find a free one.

>>19503232
This is an oddly specific scenario anon...

>>19503232
Who the fuck actually does that? If you're that dumb you shouldn't be on the internet anyway.

How to get over the fear of your roommates overhearing you while you stream

>>19503475
just say that you are on VC with some friends
you'll be surprised to know that most people, especially your roommates won't care about what you do in your room

>>19503475
Tell them so they're aware and you can avoid any interruptions or them telling you to keep it down

>>19503372
>>19503360
it wasn't a rando on the internet but this happened to Nemu which is why she is on a hiatus right now. gave her friend access to her bank account as financial support to survive an abusive relationship with her husband. but the husband committed suicide and the friend withdrew a ton of money to cope. now Nemu is in debt and needs to move to a smaller place to make ends meet.

>>19503690
lol
lmao

>>19503690
Isn't she moving into said smaller house with said friend who took said money?

>>19503372
>>19503360
I suspect it happened to someone I follow. They're starting to rebuild their vtuber career after someone doxxed them but has had money stolen from their account twice and had pretty much been running donation drives to get to a 0 balance.

>>19503690
That's insane because barring any insane things they need to pay for (I've heard her health isn't the best?) she should've just hitsix figures from Twitch by now. Assuming she's not splurging on tons of things, she'd at least be in very high the five figures. Someone took an insane money away from her.

What's the origin if wigglies? (Idk where else to ask)

>>19510390
it's from the pokemon Popplio that had a wiggly dancing gif made from it. if you're asking why vtubers started latching onto it no fucking clue. every google search points back to /vt/ but i'm too lazy to archive reps so guessing some schizo posted a few and then everyone else started copying it.

>>19510553
>>19510390
i believe the dancing popplio was one of leaflit's emotes and since leaflit is popular around here a lot of /here/chuubas ended up getting wigglies
leaflit is also just, a known streamer so her wigglies probably also just had influenced the bigger streamers into getting wigglies too

>>19509579

How do you decide on clothes/etc. writing or decals on your designs?

>>19516797
Find symbols that you find interesting and personally relevant. I like occultism, alchemy and Hermeticism so I put a caduceus on my outfit

>>19500191
nothing wrong with being a babi as long as you're having fun (I'm a babi and I'm having fun)

>>19518883
Why babi? I'm curious to know what the appeal is

>>19519111
Everyone has their own reasons but for me I just feel more comfortable being a funny dude with a girl avatar than being a himbo being cringe to appeal to fujos or whatever.

>>19519190
There's got to be a happy medium between the two, right? Surely not every vtuber that looks like a man has to be a himbo being cringe to appeal to fujos or whatever. I don't do that

>>19519271
this is my own happy find your own happy and if it's not being a babi then why are you replying to me

>>19519190
You know you can just be a normal dude and appeal to normal dudes

I'm just trying to understand your happy. Sorry

>>19519369
feel free to do that but I can have my cake and eat it too

>>19519446
No one's saying you can't, but if you think the only options are "be funny dude with a girl avatar" or "himbo cringe to appeal to fujos" then you're just dumb as shit, my man

doesn't matter if there are more options if this is the best and most gratifying one for me

you simply don't get it and that's ok

>>19520182
Oldest cope ever. "Why would I want to look at a guy's butt when I'm playing?"

Have one more IP to this samefagging thread.

>>19520321
honestly none of them were likely to make it. just pointing out that none of their audition tapes even got a single view.

>>19520336
it's not cope fag you're the one coping

>>19520322
I'm not sure that you get it either, is what I'm implying here. are you an egg or something

>>19520336
this is weird of you to say, because I also only play as men in video games. this isn't even remotely like that at all

>>19520558
when I stream and have OBS in one of my screens I have a cute girl staring back at me. can you say the same?

>>19520644
no, because I'm mostly staring at the game I'm streaming and chose my avatar to represent my personality to my viewers without using a facecam, so a man was the natural choice considering I am a man IRL. I mostly just glance over there occasionally to make sure I have the right expression on

>>19520488
I'd reckon that has more to do with it than them being male, then

>>19520946
doesn't really make sense when random femanons here have gotten 3-5 views on theirs

>>19521060
There's still too many variables at play here for me to think it has everything to do with them being women since Cover said they were looking for male applicants. It could just come down to the women that posted in this thread having had better presented titles and descriptions for their videos than your friends, or maybe they go look at their other internet presences before they even give the video a view. I just don't think the application lives or dies depending on your gender since they said they wanted men to apply this go around

>>19521271
the ur-babiniku. the most honest babiniku. it's just agp, apparently

>>19521308
>since they said they wanted men to apply this go around
they've never said this. they only said males could apply not that they wanted males.

This is just my opinion on it, but if you have no prior content I don't think they should (or do) look at your application to begin with, and if you do have prior content then there's no reason to even view your application if they decide it's trash. I've heard of several non-/here/ femanons who didn't get a view on their videos either up to this point.

is the babi thing still going? I'm babi for absolutely no reason and i think both sides of the argument are fucking retarded jfc

Why would they even bother saying that if they didn't want men to apply? You can't seriously believe that they're beholden to some unseen egalitarian boogeyman on the internet, right? They have no obligation to say that they would accept men for the role if they didn't want them

>>19521674
>Why would they even bother saying that if they didn't want men to apply?
sex discrimination laws. they're legally required to say both genders can apply even if everyone knows they're only going to pick females.

>>19521649
Is it really no reason, though? Surely there was something that motivated you to be a babiniku

>>19521702
If that were true, then casting calls for female roles in movies or TV shows would have to say that they would allow men to apply. There was no change in legislation or any litigation lodged towards cover in the span of time that they've held auditions. This does not sound grounded in reality

>>19521816
>then casting calls for female roles
Cover isn't casting for female vtubers. they're casting for vtubers. that's why they have to accept auditions from both males and females.

>>19521870
Then why wouldn't they just say which gender they wanted to apply in their ad? They specifically said that they want men and women to apply and showed both male and female vtubers in the ad this go around. Your reasoning makes no sense

>>19521980
>Then why wouldn't they just say which gender they wanted to apply in their ad?
laziness? who knows. ask cover. there are millions of reasons.

>>19522094
I don't think I need to ask them because one of their managers literally said "hey men should apply too!"
why is this so hard to accept?

>>19522145
>"hey men should apply too!"
stop lying. they never said this. they said males CAN apply not SHOULD.

I thought it'd be funny.

I still think it'll be funny.

>>19522176
alright man. or woman or them; whoever I'm talking to. sit on your hands while I apply for them, I guess

>>19521737
>funny witty character from sol manga
>char made for vrchat because i wanted something unique and it was literally the first thing that came to mind
>randomly started vtub because i thought the technology was interesting
>too lazy to switch

shit now i got roped into this. you can psycho analyze me or whatever but char's personality resonated with me so i ended up liking it but it wasn't a reason to use her as chuuba just one thing led to another

>>19521060
If they've reviewed their own video and watched it themselves at all, it counts as a view I think

>>19522402
you seem to have a few mental blind spots is all I'm going to say here

Vtuber who has no face except for certain expressions where it can either look goofy or fucked.

>>19522557
your deliberate vagueness infuriates me and your ability to discern that i might left a few key points out like saying the character picrel is cute to not give you any leverage displayed your mental superiority so I'm going to shit up the thread even further by calling you a ni- to hopefully elicit a response.

why do you wanna be a girl, anon

Well, my anon friends. The time has come for Nijisanji to open once again.

I wish good luck and success to everyone <3 Ganbatte, minna!

>>19523916
This is interesting. There's not a single pre-made character this time like Ethyria.

>>19523916
>Niji auds are back up
>I'm still not good at singing

>>19524968
It's a buff but not a requirement. Some of the livers have admitted to not being that good at it and when you listen to the group debut songs you can tell they have a lesser role, e.g. Vox did more narration than singing for Luxiem's song.

>>19523605
I'd want to become as much a girl as the middle aged woman voicing Ash from Pokemon wants to be a 10 year old boy... you know that might have not been the best comparison. I'd like to think one can maintain a professional distance to the character you play, even if becoming a chuuba kinda means that people associate the character with you. Personally i respect the artists vision for the character and I'd never want to become her or a girl. And out of that respect i do want to switch models. But it's fun acting out a character even if they are something entirely different from you, I'd might even say it's more interesting.

>aspies clawing at each others throats for niji auditions

>>19525558
that didn't happen for the first wave I don't think the second will be much different
I can only think of a couple of /asp/ies I'd think have a shot at niji

>>19526102
who are the ones to watch?
