Current Versions (VCam 0.13 and Later, VCam2D)
Section titled “Current Versions (VCam 0.13 and Later, VCam2D)”- Connecting a microphone such as AirPods while VCam is running may stop lip sync from working
- Workaround: After connecting the microphone, choose the lip sync method again, or restart VCam.
- Expressions such as smiles aren’t estimated very accurately
- Workaround: If you get expressions you don’t intend, turn off “Use emotion by Mic or Camera” in the “Experiment” tab, and switch expressions with the expression buttons or shortcuts.
- Combining an expression button with blinking or lip sync distorts the expression (VCam)
- Workaround: When you make the blend shapes in the VRM file, make sure A and Blink don’t distort when combined with other expressions.
- The video flickers in Zoom
- Workaround: Lower “FPS (screen)” in the “Rendering” tab or “FPS (tracking)” in the “Tracking” tab. Tracking or screen updates may not be keeping up.
- In VCam 0.15.0, installing the virtual camera fails with “extension category returned error”
- Workaround: Update to the latest version. The virtual camera in 0.15.0 is misconfigured, so new installations and reinstallations fail. Existing installations aren’t affected.
