Virtual Motion Capture

This mod enables your Minecraft client to utilize the VMC protocol for controlling virtual YouTuber models. The mod includes an API that allows other Minecraft modifications to create and implement additional BlendShapes transmitted through the same connection.

What are BlendShapes

BlendShapes are numerical values transmitted via the VMC protocol. Virtual YouTuber applications use this data to activate toggles, move models, and perform other actions. By default, the mod generates over 20 different BlendShapes and sends them to address 127.0.0.1:35940.

These parameters reflect various states and events occurring with the player in the Minecraft world, including:

• Relative health level
• Sprinting state
• Sneaking state
• Taking and dealing damage

Compatibility

Although this mod was originally developed for use with the open-source virtual YouTuber application Inochi Session, it has also been successfully tested with VMC Protocol Monitor and should function with most standard virtual YouTuber software supporting the VMC protocol (and consequently, Open Sound Control).
