Work in Progress
VTube for Linux
Linux-native app for running Live2D VTuber models in a smooth and modern experience.
Powered by Live2D Cubism SDK
VTube for Linux
VLiva is a Linux-native VTubing application for running Live2D models with a workflow designed for creators who prefer staying on Linux from setup to stream.
The project began after repeated friction with existing options: compatibility layers, unstable behavior, and setup overhead that interrupted production work. VLiva focuses on removing that friction with a direct native path.
Features
Two build tracks with different scope: Release for daily production and Demo for quick evaluation.
Release Track
Full runtime and broader integration scope for creators who need stable day-to-day use.
Model support, general parameter tracking, and physics are part of the default release workflow.
Custom emotes and the C-header library are present for deeper integration and custom behavior.
Settings persist across relaunch, and overall UI/UX is tuned to feel polished for day-to-day use.
The release branch is aligned with NVIDIA AR SDK, iFacialMocap, and VSeeFace integration paths.
Release currently targets English, Japanese, and Thai.
Audio lip-sync remains planned and subject to change, while experimental features may be removed in stable releases.
Demo Track
Lightweight scope for testing compatibility and baseline quality before moving to release.
Model support, general parameter tracking, and physics are still available in the demo build.
Custom emotes and the C-header library are excluded from demo scope.
Settings are session-only, and the interface is intentionally basic but usable.
The demo branch focuses on MediaPipe and OpenCV.
English only in demo.
Audio lip-sync remains planned/experimental, and experimental features stay available in demo scope.

Support
Common questions from the current project state.
No. VLiva is currently a closed-source project and is not distributed under an open-source license.
No. VLiva is positioned as a native Linux alternative, not a replacement for existing tools.
Compatibility is under evaluation because it could simplify migration for current Linux VTuber workflows.
Inochi2D has useful engineering references, but VLiva focuses on Live2D support and has different goals.
