Oh man so many followers today! I've noticed that majority of y'all are #vtubers and I wanted to share something with peeps.

Vtuber Dynamic Lighting! It's completely OBS based and does not require you to spend money (ew StreamFX). The tutorial will be in the comments.

If you want to try something fun with your vtuber model, I HIGHLY recommend @paeshun.bsky.social 's tutorial on adding Dynamic Lighting through OBS, my stream today looked so good with the lighting on my model!

btw if you mostly used StreamFX for filters I can recommend @exeldro.com's Shaderfilter so far, it does most of what I leaned on StreamFX for before it went paywalled
GitHub - exeldro/obs-shaderfilter: OBS Studio filter for applying an arbitrary shader to a source.

GOOD NEWS
I FINALLY MANAGED TO RE-WORK MY MODEL LIGHTING
Since StreamFX got taken down and paywalled, I had to search for some good alternatives and thankfully Obs Shaderfilter works just fine!

I finally uploaded OBS past 27.0 and a nice retroactive fuck you to the dev making StreamFX a monthly subscription thing. If you wanna charge a 1 time thing, cool, but if you think I'm gonna pay every month to tint sources different colors you can actually suck my dick

Pspspspspspsps here's this vid I was talking about, you should go check it out cause it's super easy to follow and trims a lot of the fat other tutorials tend to have

I usually hesitate to press the update button on OBS because there's always a chance something critical will break. I finally bit the bullet after last stream and sure enough it was StreamFX. I'd been dreading this day.

zappsbot started throwing a fit today and upon closer inspection

he somehow found a latent streamFX plugin file that was the reason my obs always tried to start in safe mode

this is what "vibe-coding" should mean, because how the hell did i accomplish this

StreamFX shaders aren't supported anymore so I'm writing my own wobble shader :) I must have sources that go up and down!

"What's something you made you're proud of this year?"
I created a tutorial on introducing dynamic lighting to vtuber models using solely OBS plugins! It doesn't require any external program, and is lighter to use than shader plugins. The only requirement is spout2 capture.

streamfx hack broke so I'm just gonna program my own sine wave shader :^)
March 14, 2026 at 7:36 AM
I haven't updated obs cause they gotta rip free StreamFX from my cold dead hands

A couple new peeps in chat today pointed out how I helped them put dynamic lighting on their tubers, and tbh that made me so so so happy!

Heres the video if anyone is interested ^^

also I wanna shout out @craftykaname.bsky.social for helping me out with getting streamFX working again!!! The scene rebuild is slow but steady!!
July 30, 2025 at 8:58 AM
probably useful to make a tutorial for this since the original threads (thank you various vtubers, including virtual_graves and imkrisyim, for those) are outdated, since streamfx got butchered for parts after becoming paywalled

anyway: vtuber dynamic lighting in obs!

#vtuber #tutorial #duskcreates
spending a disproportional amount of time adjusting my obs stream setup compared to the amount of time i actually stream

anyway i think i made the lighting look cool here you go

Die letzten Tage noch immer an den Nachwehen der Coroners Infektion laboriert. Hatte mal die Zeit, meine Overlays für die Cams auf aktuellen Stand zu bringen (Ohne StreamFX) und mal meine ganzen Datein zu sortieren, die sich über die Jahre so angesammelt haben.

Infrastructure as Code but it's for OBS scenes/sources/filters

built an initial version of this years ago but wanted to try a different approach today

Dynamic pngtuber/vtuber lighting like this is usually based very precariously on plug-ins that lose compatibility SO quickly. But currently it works like this: youtu.be/SFRPDAA8B7g?...

does this work with the old StreamFX dynamic lighting method?
October 10, 2024 at 6:38 PM
This is incredible data because I’d really really like to install the version before streamfx broke :3c
October 3, 2025 at 8:04 PM
Thanks for the shout! <3

Gotta give credit to Virtual Graves, who came up with the original dynamic lighting method, and Phlox Nesspalier for the updated tutorial that let me stop using StreamFX.

I've included some examples from a recent overlay test I did, don't mind the missing model/chat.

you just need the streamfx plugin and the old scene collection, and the version of OBS you had installed's zip
