VTS LiveDraw

Connect to VTubeStudio to draw on a specialized Artmesh grid using this pixel art software!

Instructions

Connecting

• Run vtsLiveDraw.exe
• Enter the port number configured in the VTubeStudio API settings, and click "Connect to VTubeStudio"
• Make sure a model with the special Artmesh grid is loaded
• Hit "Done"
• Press the "VTS" button in the top menu to return to the connection dialog if necessary
• If the "Auto-send to VTubeStudio" option is turned on, the Artmesh grid will be updated automatically when you draw
• If not, the "Send Image to VTubeStudio" button will send the current canvas state to VTubeStudio

Custom Colors

To use colors besides the default, they should be added to the palette on the right using the Use Custom Color section. You can type a hex code for the color, or click the colored box to open a color picker. Make sure to hit the + button below it to add the color to the custom palette!

Import and Export

The "Download" button at the top can be used to download a copy of the current image as a .pxlsh file. This file can be imported using the "New Project" button to restore it later.

You can also export a page showing any custom colors you've added, but there's currently no way to import those colors.
