ToonTubers V2, A new type of Vtuber! (Free Tutorial) 

This is one of the coolest things you've made, and considering how many streaming gadgets you've made, that's a lot of competition.

Yoo thanks for not only making a (second) tutorial, but also for sharing your files and folders for us. Really appreciate the effort you put in all of this.

I'll use this when I can. Thank you, Scott. You are an unsung hero in the VTubing community.

I'm impressed by how much you've managed to improve the ToonTuber engine between iterations! Though i do use an existing PNGtuber engine within SAMMI, it's nice to see variations and easy access to more cool software!

Thank you for this. I can doodle stuff and mildly animate lol so, I can't wait to get this going.

Scott, this so cool! I think the instructions were well done and well explained. I’m hoping to see more ToonTubers in the future!

Everything is going incredibly smoothly so far! I personally had a little confusion at first as I mistakenly told SAMMI the _actual_ Mic name as opposed to just what OBS calls it, but all went well once I sorted that out...! (^ ^;)ゞ -Incredible, this time around it practically sets _itself_ up-I have to say quite the contrast and update from the last Amazing job and thank you so much-! (人*´∀｀)｡*ﾟ+

You wonder how long before Nintendo claim copyright of the backing track…

This is super cool! Thanks for all the work you put into this update 🎉

Thank you for being so thorough with your setup. I was digging you ToonTuber concept when you released your first tutorial, and I appreciate you helping to fill a gap that has a different flavor than the many Live2D models out there.

Scott I cannot thank you enough. As I mentioned before, I had an idea for streaming that this PERFECTLY fit. You didn't have to update for the new files but you really went all the way with this. Thank you so, so much. I really appreciate it. God bless you

I literally just moved over my previous animation folders after copying the new deck info into the most up to date OBS/Sammi setup and it all worked immediately. You continue to be an inspiration! (Also R.I.P to StreamFX's creator for causing so many headaches)

Thank you so much for this tutorial!! Setting this up on my OBS as we speak. Plan to work on a toon tuber for it the next few days

This is amazing, will def be using this and joining the toon tube battalion!

Thank you for taking the time to make this.

This is amazing, thanks for all that detailed info. You’re great!

this is SO much easier!!! thank you so much Scott!!

Awesome, been waiting for this update. Tried going back to the first one but was just having too much trouble with OBS and my own lack of tech savvy and stuck with a regular PNG. Really looking forward to trying this out.

Whoo hoo! Amazing how far your toon tuber has gotten!

Thank you for this guide my dude!

OH In case it helps anyone! Cus I got stuck on this with both of these tutorials but I figured this out! If you don't know what you're doing with the scene and the greenscreening, you are supposed to just leave the tuber occupying the whole scene and then _on the scene you're _*_actually going to be using,_* you can go to Add > *Scene,* and then put the entire tuber scene in there. I had been struggling with this cus it seemed like that would be the sensible thing to do but I could not figure out how to do it?? but when he explained in this video that you can add the greenscreen to the _scene itself,_ not to the individual items (like I had done XD), that got it to click and then I finally found the button I was missing haha So just go to your *normal scene,* or create one, which will have all your UI, game capture etc etc, and right click in the right-hand box and hover over the Add section, or click the plus sign at the bottom, and then there is one in the list called *Scene.* If you applied the greenscreen ( *Chroma Key* ), to the tuber scene as he shows in this vid, then you can jsut resize it as needed.

Thanks for not only one tutorial but an update, a second tutorial and some starter files. I don't see myself using a toontuber but it looks great.

Definitely saving this video for future reference. Thanks for doing this!

Scott you’ve truly made it so far love your content 😊

I've been waiting my entire life for this update 👀 *Three Decades & it was worth the wait*

Fantastic work and great progress!

Thank you so much for posting this guide and giving us the tools to make this style of puppet. The face tracking style of V-Tubing has a bit too much of an uncanniness for me, but your Toon-Tubing setup seems to have so much more freedom of expression, even though it's limited to voice-activation and key binds. I've been putting off making videos (mainly out of shear laziness), not only this has this inspired me to learn how to animate, but it has lit a fire. As cheesy as it sounds, thank you so very much for this gift.

i'mma start messin around with this. thanks homie, you're so awesome for this, it allows for so much more creativity with streaming avatars imo👍

Scott falco my favorite vtuber

Honestly, its something I wanna try, so I’m glad I waited for the new video! Might not have any experience in animation but I hope I can do my best!

Oooh.... this sounds like fun..might take a while to set up animations but I did always want something like this.

Thanks Scott! Ever since I stopped using Adobe Character Animator, I needed to figure out a new system, and for some reason, most of the free Vtuber programs aren't very 2D Friendly

Yes finally the tutorial I've been waiting for, this was very helpful too

I can't thank you enough for what you're doing. This could potentially solve all my issues about starting my channel and you made it sound like it was nothing. I'll follow your work for the rest of my time on internet, really thanks for this.

Very nicely done friendo i would have no idea what was what lol i was considering a toontuber honestly so this helps out thanks for the info!

I’ve been wanting to figure out a way to streamline and improve my avatar in RU-vid videos and this is PERFECT for that. I definitely want to play around with this!

Good timing I was just setting up the ToonTuber stuff so good to hear I don't have to downgrade

Definitely gonna try setting this up tomorrow as I'm starting to stream again, thanks for this amazing tool!!!

This is so amazing! Thank you for figuring stuff like this out, I might even try my hand at it. Something a little less daunting than a Vtuber, and something a little less stagnate as a PNG tuber!

Thank You so much Scott this really means a lot for my RU-vid career ❤❤❤

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I’ve been wanting to do this for a good while so thank you for making this video

I seriously love the new scott model! also, thank you for the new tutorial!

I'm gonna use these for gameplay clips! Thanks again Scott!

The timing on this is incredible

Thanks, I've been thinking of having an animated character for my educational videos so I might give this a try.

This is awesome!

the sequel that i wasnt really waiting for!

AWESOME!! Thanks for working hard on making a second version

Looks awesome, and love the concept, now if only i had the artistic talent to actually animate something

This is awesome! As a voiceover artist good with impressions, I'd have fun with a bit reward that changes my normal camera out for a ToonTuber of Solid Snake, and I'd have to talk like Snake for a few minutes.

Yippee!! I think I can do this! It looks fun!!

scott you landed a credit in my stream for this, its exactly what I need! thank you!

i had an idea to get a bunch of usb pedals and have each one correspond to a specific animation, and then play it like an organ to trigger specific animations. would that like. work

Hey i can use this to start my online career

This is awesome. Just going to have to get a beefier setup or stop some background processes before doing this.

Omg the costume swapping is HUGE. I have so many tshirts for mine that just... clog up obs. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

thank you so much! :O i didn't know you made an updated vid! so cooool!!!!!

I’ve been considering doing this. Biggest issue is my utter lack of art and animation skills.

Yess! Love the new tutorial. Not gonna lie the 1st version was a little bit to learn. This looks way easier. Thanks again for making such a goated too tuber set ipy

very cool that you made an update, but i wish you went over stuff like what the idle animations are comprised of again in this, coz now i gotta watch both tutorials and piece together what parts are relevant and what isnt

Thank you !

Hey scott is their a way you can show us how you import your character while using sammi in a video? This honestly confused me alot i made my own avatar but i cant find out how to get each different emotes into obs with sammi in general. sorry if this is too much to ask but it will really help out!! thank you so much

I first thought that VTubing was pretty tricky but easy to do.....but this....i have a whole new respect for VTubers and ToonTubers

NEED this in life

This is something I never expected from ScottFalco of all people.

Oh my god, this gonna stream line some animations and voice recordings for me

As someone who has wanted to get into vtubing for a long time but has never had the time nor knowledge to do so... Thank youuuu!!!

U did a great job scott-falco!! :D In the future U should probably show more cool stuff U make!

Dude I think Scott falco just made a million dollars idea

Do you plan on doing more revisions in the future to streamline the process so it can work for podcasting?

Hi scott!! i've been working on my toontuber since the first video arrived, so my question is: if i want to use toontuber V2, that means i have to like.. delete everything else from V1 to make it work? im kinda scare to delete everything from V1 because i have like.. waaay to much expressions and time invested, so, if i want to use V2, how should i start?

the starter folder is gone.

This is super epic

bro, love it... may try it later... when im free...in 5 months

Hooray, I like this channel

The 2D god has returned

WE LOVE YOU SCOTT

Wooow, I was literally *_just_* in the middle of reviewing the original video only to see the Description was gone to stop you from using that method and linking to this one- (≧▽≦) -How convenient, thank you so much...! ♪(´▽｀)

I’m saving this for later…

Finally. We have cartoon vtubers

Oh for SURE using this (:

Greatest day ever

niceeeeeeee i need to figure this out

Great work. I did have one random question though. If you're using WEBM why the chromakey/greenscreen in your files and not just render out the file with alpha transparency? Doing it that way should allow things like softer / semi-transparent lines and not having to worry about what colors are in your characters. MOV supports it too but WEBM is definitely the way to go here. Does it run faster in OBS using a chromakey filter in OBS rather than rendering a source with alpha transparency? If there's a technical reason I definitely would like to know. I'd hate to do all the work exporting animation with transparency only to find out it breaks something. :D

this is cool, and it doesn't even have to just be used for stream avatars! imagine using that sort of thing to make your own animated adlib comedy series like Aqua Teen hell one could make avatar animations for ads and other things with this method! you didn't just come up with a cool vtuber idea, you came up with a really cool live record animation method! Adult Swim would be jealous. lmao

neato, thanks for this, now I can become courage the cowardly dog for halloween

Very nice video🥹❤️

Commenting to boost the video, because I want ToonTubers to become more popular.

Boost because i need more 2d animation in my life

I love this

super cool!!!

Great work scott :3 hope lots of people make lots of cool stuff with it Especially you! :D

Woooah, this got me really excited and i really wanna try it out. The link for the starter folder is broken unfortunately :(

Well better go try this at home

wow! thank you, for this epic video and download. Dumb question i have streamlabs does this work on it?

Thank you so much! all the things I found were 3D!

Yo Scotty, if you use browser sources instead of media sources you could use transparent animated WebPs, Gifs, or APNGs instead of video files. Then no chroma key required. Edit: If using browser sources you do need to use the css line img {background-color: transparent !important;} for it to work. This didn't use to be needed, but chrome's default image handling changed so.... yeah.

Actually is kinda impressive that you play FPS while have to manually pick your avatar interactions, I don't think that I could do that.

Neat, might give this a shot for giggles as I'm gonna be force into bed/home/chair for a while(I'm sick at time of writing; not like I'm being held down or something to make a tuber rig)

i feel like a grandpa looking at a new mario game after being there for the original mario bros
