I'd like the option for a 3-frame blink animation. Maybe other animations as well? Changing mouth frames to multi-frames (like including an in-between/transition frame)

Also, the ability to change the center point of an image would be very helpful for eyes.  For example: to save time correctly aligning everything, I keep empty space around every individual image so that I only need to load it, and it's placed exactly where it needs to be. This is fine for everything EXCEPT the irises. The center point of the iris image is not the center point of the iris itself, so the "look" function doesn't work. Being able to change the center point would solve this issue.

Lastly, locking layers. I keep grabbing and moving the wrong layer. It'd be great to have the option to make layers uneditable.

I've got some really awesome idea for a feature.  :O
The idea is for the program to interact with channel points and alerts on twitch.
Like having the option to choose the other images that we can add as alternatives to be activated by an alert or channel points and then go back to the first one that we usually use.
That would make the program little heavy but not that much.

Is it possible for this to happen?
There is this streamer for example LoadingArtist who has his avatar on the left corner doing stuff when alerts happen.

First of all, I absolutely love this program, and hope you're able to keep developing it in a way that's enjoyable and rewarding! Would love to have hotkey to "lean" the character left or right (maybe on a pivot point similar to the rotate while talking thing).

Really loved your program! if i were to add something is perhaps some kind of animation feature, like being able to import .gif files, i think that would be cool but other than that im facinated!

Gifs would be so nice just to not have something that moves but not because of the eye tracking/sound detection 

Would there be the possibility of a version for MacOs?

You dont know how proud I am of my little VTuber!!  I made use of your Mouse tracking Eye rotation to have my VTuber turn a bit to the left and right!

I tried looking through all the suggestions to not be redundant, but I guess it's not that stupid for you to know which features are requested several times? I'm sorry it's so much but I hope you get inspired by some of these.

  • Color Scheme
    • I have eye issue, and as on brand and pretty your color scheme is, but especially the bright pink is straining my eyes, and after setting up the mouths or the layers I am not able to see my screen for a while :') Please add a softer Color Scheme....
  • Move the layer settings
    • The settings at the top edge of the layer are stylewise a neat choice, but less so for usability. I keep my character on the largest size possible for stream, so it makes changing settings impossible without zooming out. Please put them on the bottom of the screen or something. 
  • Layer clipping (Also called masking I believe)
    • In Drawing programs, you can clip a layer to the one under it. The pixel alpha of the layer below will be the maximum of the pixel alpha at the same position. Right now I added a layer called "Face Mask", that us a little cutout of my face to hide the pupils going over the lashline. With clipping i simply could clip it to the white of the eyes. Also great for effects.
  • Not-Random Rotation
    • I would like to rotate my ears a bit when I talk, but they are both on different layers, so they simply rotate at different timings. Maybe you could make the rotation dependant on something, just like the eye tracking. Height of the voice?
  • Visible Layers with drag & drop reorder
    • It's really hard to see on what layer everything is, and 5 layers is pretty few. Maybe simply add a +Layer button and create an indent for all the files under that layer?
    • Also: Render Layer bundle settings. Rotation/Bounce/EyeTracking for all items in a layer. 
  • Hotkeys 2.0
    • I have no technical know how about this, but maybe you can add some kind of hook or events that it's possible to change emotes from the outside? I am Thinking Touch portal buttons or Twitch  integration...
  • Negative Eye rotation (maybe the easiest to do)
    • The slider for the radius stops at 0. If you could go below 0 and make the object rotate away from the mouse. This way I could make this movement effect even better! (I feel the ears need to move away from the mouse, so it looks like they move a bit behind the head for "Rotating")
  • Layer tilt
    • You know, make a layer have one side smaller than the other, so it looks like its tilted and one side is farther away and the other is nearer? If this could be attached to the distance of the mouse from the avatar, You could intensify the look of eyes actually moving a bit backwards
  • Keep display / preview when setting it up.
    • Is it possible to keep the way it's displayed to OBS while editing? IDK, i would try to avoid having everyone see a square when I notice something is still not working out and having to fix it live on stream.
    • I was very confused about if i made changes when i first set everything up. Maybe a preview button for the setup screen, so it is shown, even when changing settings?


Thank you very much for your effort on this program! I will have a blast with it :)

Just had to say, your vtuber is amazing! Incredibly well done, just lovely

This looks pretty amazing! Is there any possibility for a Mac or Linux version? I realize that's probably a huge amount of work so I can understand if the answer is "no."

Really digging into this program, it would be cool to be able to use animated GIFs as things so if you wanted a constant moving effect to happen it would allow for really cool animations like a constantly trembling character or wings that flap on their own instead of in time with blinks or speech sounds. or a snake where the s sound is a flappy tongue. I'm having so much fun with this program.

A toggle for a "breathing" motion would give the character some life when otherwise immobile. I'd be happy to show you an example via Discord.

(+2)

Can you please make the app remember the last microphone selected between closing and opening the app?

(+2)

can we pretty please set a custom HEX code for the background color? My model doesn't work well with green, or blue, or magenta... 

(+3)

Can there be a true transparency mode for the app? I want to use a model that practically has every color under the rainbow but it's impossible to use in obs because the chroma key will always take away a color away from the model.

Just wondering if there will ever be a version for MacOS? Is I'm still willing to purchase this and use it with Wine, regardless!
It's just nice to have the native support! Thanks!

Edit: Just bought it anyways! Hoping for the best :>

I thought of another thing I'd like:  a double blink mixed into the blink cycle sometimes.  I feel like that would make my character look more alive/natural.  I love your program so much!

Hi hi! I think it was mentioned a few posts back that it was not possible to resize images in different layers within HONK. Do you think that would be a feature worth adding?

Also what I'm looking for specifically is a rotate option, where we can adjust different layers to look better (ie: importing another character's mouth onto a new one, just for the sake of time-saving, but it's not necessarily the same size and angle and there's no way to do that aside from editing all of the mouth shapes in editing software.)

Heyo! Just bought HONK to try out as another add-on to my stream and was thoroughly impressed with how things are layed out! Not entirely intuitive but the tutorial answered all my questions.

Is there a way to reduce the delay between the animation of the character and the imput of my mic inside the program and not in my streaming software? I find that whenever I speak there's half a second of delay that's too distracting for me to start using live.

Maybe something to look into in the next instance of the software!

Heyo! I want to say I LOVE THIS APP! It's so great and I really appreciate all the hard work you have done! I do have some suggestions to help improve user experience after logging back onto it. Is there a way for the app to open with the settings previous used? Ex: every time I open the app up again, I always have to reselect my character from the folder list and have to set the mic to the one I want to use. Thank you!!

Are you concidering Mac support? This is such a cool program and would love to use it!

i would totally get this but unfortunately i have a mac :__: any plans on uploading a mac verison?

(+3)

Do the animations only play when talking?

Can there be an idle animation mode? That'd be cool me thinks
