[0:00] so people have been wondering about this [0:02] um where you're controlling a mouse and [0:05] the model moves to it and you can see [0:07] the kind of the face is detecting my my [0:09] microphone there's no webcaming [0:10] connected to this at all like you could [0:13] see um and I could use hot Keys like you [0:15] know I be [0:17] like or so I'm going to show you how to [0:19] do that real quick um first things first [0:21] uh this works for literally every model [0:24] you don't need like any fancy model to [0:26] do this with um and just to prove my [0:29] point [0:30] uh we're going to go do this with uh the [0:33] basic live Tod vtuber model now know [0:37] that the app is vtube studio so you do [0:40] need to do this in vtube studio [0:44] um so yeah right over here you're going [0:46] to see there's this option on the right [0:50] of the mouse input range let me move [0:52] myself so you can see it a bit [0:54] better there we go so yeah in vtube [0:59] studio already there is a feature to [1:01] detect your mouse input and you can go [1:03] edit this however you see fit um so [1:06] simply if you want to make the face [1:08] follow the mouse you can go in the [1:11] settings here and just make sure you're [1:13] selected here and see stuff where it's [1:15] like face angle X you just write Mouse [1:18] and then you can change it to position X [1:20] and you'll see when I move the mouse [1:22] left and right it'll move the face left [1:24] and [1:25] right same thing for [1:27] here so Mouse angle [1:30] y or head it excuse me head angle y you [1:34] can set it to Mouse position Y and like [1:38] so you'll see now the head can look up [1:41] and down see that which works perfectly [1:44] fine next for angle Zed I like to set [1:48] angle Zed to Mouse position [1:51] Y and you'll see It'll move that but as [1:54] you can see it's a bit quick so you can [1:55] click the see this little slider with [1:57] smoothness you can adjust this and and [2:00] just adjust it whatever you'd like so I [2:01] like to make it slow so it kind of you [2:03] know like pops up like that maybe it's [2:05] looking up a bit too much so you can [2:07] also change the settings right over here [2:10] so like let's say I want it to go up a [2:13] bit less I'm going to change it to minus [2:16] two so now um it's going to go up but [2:19] very barely which gives it this kind of [2:21] like look that the head's tilting up and [2:25] it adds like a nice little contrast of [2:27] believability for body rotation I [2:29] believe this is body rotation Zed right [2:31] yep for body rotation Zed uh I like to [2:34] do mouse position X and now the body [2:37] will move uh with the mouse and it's [2:41] moving a bit much so again adjust the [2:43] smoothing right and now you'll see it [2:46] looks like the body is moving with the [2:48] mouse right the other thing we're going [2:51] to do is we're going [2:54] to go to the mouth open so how do you [2:56] make it check your voice simply select [2:58] mouth open plus volume or voice Volume [3:02] Plus mouth open select that and now [3:05] you'll notice whenever I speak it'll [3:07] move with this [3:10] um it's not very often I use an anime [3:12] girl model very rare um but yeah so [3:18] that's how you do it like that now we [3:20] have the mouse smile the other thing I [3:22] personally like to do is I like to set [3:25] um just for kind of personality I like [3:28] setting Mouse or mouth smile or mouth [3:31] form to Mouse position y so if I move [3:34] the thing up the model smiles and I move [3:36] it down it frowns that way we can add a [3:38] bit of expressiveness you'll you'll see [3:40] it more in my models uh this one is just [3:44] the [3:45] mouth oh actually one thing before we [3:47] stop uh for blinking just select auto [3:50] blinking there you [3:52] go perfect we have the eyes we have to [3:56] move the eyes around so let's go do that [3:59] we're going to go [4:00] move there we go so iix set that to [4:03] Mouse position X boom and it's going the [4:07] opposite way so we're going to go set [4:09] that to minus one and now the eyes will [4:12] move with the face same with the ey y [4:15] set that to Mouse position y boom and [4:18] there you go forgive me if I'm moving a [4:21] bit too fast um do go back in the video [4:24] if it's you know a bit too quick but it [4:27] pretty much it's all that stuff browse [4:29] you can also do the same thing I'll do [4:30] mouse position Y and then one brow will [4:33] go up as you can see now there might be [4:36] stuff where you don't like the [4:37] expression you know maybe you want the [4:39] the face to do a certain something you [4:41] can go inside here and select the [4:42] expression editor and click create new [4:45] expression and here we have the new [4:49] expressions and we're going to say what [4:52] if what if I want the eyes to look right [4:55] right like you know we're not always [4:57] going to want our model to look so let's [4:58] say you know eyes looking right now we [5:01] can create a button we're going to says [5:03] button I right I'm going to press [5:07] save and what we can do now here at the [5:10] bottom is we can click the [5:13] expression we can do eyes what an I [5:17] right and I'll make a button let's do J [5:21] and we'll do stop one keys let go and [5:23] set the fade for seconds .25 and now the [5:27] model's looking around but now we can [5:28] make get the mod model oh [5:31] whoops did I save [5:33] properly no I'm using the wrong button [5:36] there we go so yeah I could press it and [5:38] then you know now the model is looking [5:40] left we could do this you know same [5:41] thing for let's say blinking right [5:45] closing your [5:49] eyes so let's [5:54] say i [5:57] l i right and was let's do close eyes [6:01] there we go so now we have the button [6:04] for close eyes I like to set this the [6:06] eyes closing to [6:07] control it just I don't know why that [6:09] feels best for me but you know um set to [6:13] whatever feels natural to you the only [6:16] reason I'm using this model as an [6:17] example is this model is already [6:20] pre-installed live 2D so you know you [6:22] can you can use this as a as a quick [6:25] little demo thing there we go so yeah [6:27] you know I can be singing like la la la [6:30] or you know do whatever joke I want um [6:33] and yeah I think the body is leaning a [6:36] bit too far to the [6:38] right okay now is the part of the video [6:40] where I'm just going to go ramble I'm so [6:43] sorry I'm so sorry yeah so this [6:48] is um the rest is just up to your [6:50] personal preference by now you should [6:52] know how things are done and how you [6:54] know you can kind of like do all the [6:56] things for your model uh I think this is [6:59] great for for art streams but maybe some [7:00] video games if you use a controller I [7:02] don't [7:03] know i' I'd rather just like make the [7:06] vtuber toggle set to your controller [7:08] hotkeys instead of your mouse hotkeys [7:10] which there are plugins for that I [7:12] haven't used it personally but I know it [7:15] exists where is oh it's all the way to [7:18] the top here you go Mouse position Zed [7:22] uh yeah so it's moving a bit too far to [7:24] the right so I'm going to say two and -2 [7:28] and now that's just going to make it you [7:30] know less sensitive and there you go [7:33] already like this is the this is the [7:35] model and it's now you know tracking the [7:37] mouse and this is not a model that was [7:39] designed for Mouse tracking and you can [7:41] do this with any kinds of model I'll [7:43] show you my model this is my model and [7:47] this is the same kind of deal happening [7:49] so here we go like this is just the [7:51] Alpine model that I'm pretty sure my [7:53] community is pretty familiar with [7:56] and it does it it does its job right [7:59] right it does the [8:01] job of course the mouth tracking I think [8:04] the thing I'm not a big fan of is the [8:05] mouth tracking you know it's so obvious [8:07] that it's like not accurate but like hey [8:10] you know what it's better than like [8:12] setting up all the pain for everything [8:14] so yeah or yeah it's hard to control I [8:18] hope this video helps you out do [8:20] consider if you do like me making more [8:24] of these tutorials on how I do things do [8:26] you consider donating me on Kofi and [8:28] writing the message please make more [8:30] tutorials on the Kofi because if you do [8:33] that I'll see it and it supports me um I [8:37] I saved saying that for the end I hate [8:39] tutorials that that say it all in the [8:41] beginning you should know by now you [8:42] should know by now how it's done um if [8:45] you skipped to the end hoping that the [8:46] tutorial will start uh you missed it it [8:49] was at at the beginning of the video all [8:51] right thank you hope this helps out good [8:54] luck [8:56] guys
