How to make custom items

VTuber Plus
A downloadable tool for Windows

It's finally here! The most requested feature!

Now you can make your own custom items and have your viewers throw them at you, drop them on you or feed them to you!


Note: Once you add a custom item, all default items in that category will be disabled.

Note: Preferbly use Unity 2019.4.31f1


How to make custom items:

1. Download the latest VTuber Plus SDK from the bottom of this game.

2. Make an empty Unity project.

3. Import VTuber Plus SDK. Once the import is done, there should be a new menu in your Unity project.

4. In your Assets folder, create a new folder called UserItem.

5. In your UserItem folder, create a folder with the name of your custom item. For example Banana.

6. Put every resource related to your item in Banana folder.

7. Select your item in the scene and go to VTuber Plus menu and click on Convert to Throw Item, Drop Item or Food Item.

8. Assign your audio clip and change the settings of each component however you like.

9. If you're making a Food Item, follow these instructions:

  1. Always next your mesh inside of an empty Game Object.
  2. Convert the empty Game Object to Food Item.
  3. Add a Particle System with a desired effect for when eaten.
  4. The Particle System MUST have Looping and Play On Awake set to off. Duration for 0.22 is ideal.

10. Convert your object to a prefab and put it in your Banana folder. Then rename it to prefab.

11. Once you're done, you need to make a bundle. To do so, go to VTuber Plus menu and click on Build Asset. The export should start and shortly after an explorer window will popup pointing to a Builds folder. Inside you'll find all the items you had in UserItem folder. Ignore .manifest files. Grab the files with no extension, in this example banana, and copy them to the path that fits your item: 

VTuber Plus\VTuber Plus_Data\UserItem\ (ThrowItem | DropItem | StickyDropItem | FoodItem)

After copying your files, restart VTuber Plus to load in the new items.
