Live Scenes

A Live Scene is a mechanism for saving and recalling your entire streaming setup at once. You can save the camera, light, background, avatar, props, expressions, input settings, and more as a single file, so you no longer need to redo your setup every time you stream.

What a Live Scene Saves

A single live scene roughly contains the following:

ElementContents
CameraCamera settings such as position, orientation, and field of view
LightEnvironment light and brightness
BackgroundSkybox / image background settings
ScreenScreen settings such as resolution, fullscreen, and Spout output
AvatarThe VRM model in use and its expression state
PropsPlaced glTF models
InputInput settings such as key bindings
note

Some app-wide settings, such as the window position, are not included in a live scene.

Base Unity Scene

Each live scene is built on top of a base Unity scene. The base Unity scene is the space (stage) that serves as the foundation of a live scene.

  • When you create a New Live Scene, you choose which base Unity scene to use.
  • When you load a saved live scene, it automatically switches to the base Unity scene that live scene was using. You do not need to match the base Unity scene manually.

In other words, think of the base Unity scene as "which stage to use," and the live scene as "the specific settings on that stage."

Saving and Restoring Live Scenes

Saving

Once you have changed your settings, save the live scene.

  • The first time you save, or when you want to save under a different name, use Save Live Scene As... to give the file a name and save it.
  • Even if you forget the extension, it is added automatically, so you only need to enter the file name.

Creating a New Live Scene

From New Live Scene, you can create a live scene in a fresh, blank state. You select the base Unity scene when creating it.

Automatic Restore on Startup

When you launch the app, the live scene you used last is automatically loaded. So once you have saved a live scene, you can pick up right where you left off and start streaming immediately next time.

Quitting With Unsaved Changes

If you try to quit the app while there are unsaved changes, a confirmation dialog appears.

  • Save … Saves the changes and quits.
  • Don't Save … Discards the changes and quits.
  • Cancel … Cancels quitting.
warning

If you choose Don't Save, your changes up to that point are lost. Save any settings you want to keep before quitting.

Where Saved Live Scenes Are Stored

You can open saved live scene files in Explorer from Open Destination Folder. Since they are managed as individual files, you can back them up or copy them to another PC to reuse.

Using Multiple Live Scenes

You can save multiple live scenes. You can save separate live scenes for different streaming purposes (chatting, gaming, etc.), and load and switch between them as needed.
