• VTuber Assistant — v0.4.0 - 21 September 2026

  VTuber Stage — Model No Longer Semi transparentThe model in the VTuber Stage was rendering with a weird ghost/transparent look when placed over a background. Fixed.The Stage captures the main app window and composites it on top of your background. It was using a blending trick to remove the dark background, but that trick also ate into the dark parts of the model itself — shadows, clothing, hair. The result was a semi-transparent character that looked off on stream.The fix swaps to a proper alpha channel approach. The model now renders as a solid, fully opaque character the way it's supposed to look.No settings to change. Just open the Stage and it works correctly. Flat Avatar — 2D ModeYou can now use a 2D sprite avatar instead of (or alongside) the 3D VRM model.The idea is simple: you give the app a folder of PNG files — one for the body, one for the face, one for each eye state, brows…

• Update v0.3.8 - 30 June 2026

A bunch of quality-of-life fixes and two new features you've been asking for.---🐛 BUG FIXES▸ Audio Capture No Longer Steals Focus The Live Audio Reactions feature was quietly switching your system to "microphone mode" when it couldn't find a monitor/loopback source automatically. It now falls straight to your configured source — no more audio routing surprises.▸ AI Boost / Premium Voice Branding Cleaned Up Removed leftover ElevenLabs references from the Steam item store descriptions and a few other places. The credits-powered voice is now consistently called "Premium Voice" throughout.▸ Steam Item Store Fix Fixed the item definition JSON — removed a duplicate field and an invalid field that Steam was silently dropping, which caused coin packs to not appear i…

• Smellest patch so far! :p - 18 May 2026

  VTuber AI Assistant — v0.3.0 Patch NotesHey everyone! Quick but important patch dropping today based on live streamer feedback. 🛠️**🔴 Fix: Exit button now actually exits**The app was staying alive in the background after closing even when told to quit — Steam would still show it as running and hitting Stop would hang. That's fixed. The exit button now forcefully shuts everything down cleanly.**🎙️ Fix: Your chat messages now take priority**When streaming with Twitch chat connected, viewer messages were sometimes jumping ahead of your own questions to your VTuber. Now your messages always go first — stream chat waits its turn.**💬 Better chat queue under heavy load**Under high input conditions (screen capture + audio reactions + stream chat all firing at once), responses could bottleneck and lag out. Chat is now properly prioritized: you → stream chat → background reactions. Background…
