The first icon (that of a person silhouette) is where you can select a different avatar. The tool comes with quite a few default avatars, but there's also a ton you can download from the Steam workshop.

Next to the avatar button, you'll find the background button (it looks like a square with 4 rectangles around it).

You're going to want to add a chroma key filter to key out the green background you just selected. Step 4: In Facerig, click the "UI+" button on the menu bar. When you're streaming, be sure to select the "Toggle Broadcast" (the webcam icon) and "Toggle tracking" (the face looking into a triangle icon).Īnd that's it. You now should have your avatar in OBS and it should mimic your movements. There's a lot more things you can customize in Facerig to get the avatar more to your liking. Also do note that Facerig does use resources, so if you system is not very high end, playing a game, using Facerig and streaming at the same time may cause some FPS drops, so be sure to adjust settings accordingly. Note: Please note that Facerig is a single purchase tool.
