Is the a way to add dangle charm animations to the pen?

(-1)

How do I edit it for left handed people

Heyo, to have Spud Arm appear left-handed, you'll want to set LeftyMode to true in SpudTabletArmSettings.ini, and then mirror (transform > flip horizontal) the arm capture in your streaming software.

Hi there! Just wanted to say thank you for making this~ I do have a question about the canvas size of the 'Hand.png' - it is currently at 300 x 400 px - I was wondering, is it possible to increase the size of it or to reposition the red tip of the pen? Thanks in advance!

hey, dont know if this is just happening to me or not or if my half a braincell isnt working but i keep getting missing code errors, 3 of them and wont load up the program, am i missing something?

hey my obs keeps capturing Spud arm when I want it to capture Spud Tablet. Is there something I can do to fix this?

Heyo. To make sure it grabs the correct window, you'll want to make sure you're using a window capture with the Window Match Priority set to "Window title must match".

hello! I just download it but why there's no "spud arm"? I just get the "spud tablet & arm.exe" but there's no arm only. Or I need to settings something first? thank you!

Heyo! Yeah, they're tied together at the moment, so if you only want to use one of the two, just only capture one of the windows in your streaming software. 

If performance is a concern, you should be able to minimize the performance impact of the window you're not using by replacing the relevant sprites with tiny pngs - like, 1 pixel by 1 pixel kinda tiny.

for some reason, when i put my mouse on the specific monitor it works fine, but when i try using my stylus on it, it stops tracking and stays still.

Hello! The thing is great, but is it possible to add a layer above the Hand that's rigged to the Arm layer? This is mostly me being too lazy to draw a sleeve that's flush with the Arm.

Hello! HandBottom.png is layered underneath Arm.png, so saving your drawn hand as the HandBottom sprite (and using a transparent/empty image for Hand.png) should let you layer the sleeve over it.

Oh. Well now I feel stupid

How i do it transparent in OBS Studio? can someone help me?

In OBS, select the source with the SpudTablet, click filter, right click the empty space on the left and click chroma key. It should automatically make the greenscreen transparent but if it doesnt, make sure that the "Key Color Type" is set to Green

I already figured but...

Thanks dude, you're awesome

Does it have to be a specific size?  Mine doesn't seem to want to fit the window

Assuming you mean custom images, yes, sizing is very important. There are photoshop templates available for download, and for custom art to work correctly, you'll want to make sure everything matches up with those in terms of size and position.

hey!! idk if youll see this, but im hoping you do bc this is a bit of a problem!
i use discord reactive images as a temporary useage for vtubers on my streams, but the spud hand covers them! i need help D: what do i do to get rid of that?

Hi! I'm not entirely sure I understand the problem, but you should be able to re-order the sources in your streaming software to place the arm behind the reactive images?

heya! im just wondering if theirs anyway i can make the arm and hand smaller? love this by the way, keep up the great work! :D

 

Heyo! You should be able to make the arm pretty much whatever size you like by editing the sprites, though you will have to adjust the Pointer Offset and Wrist Offset in the .ini to match the new positions of the tip of the pen and the wrist in the sprites. The arm template in the templates download contains a better explanation of exactly how that all works.

Hello!

I am so sorry about I'm asking below things through a comment, but I could not find your mail address anywhere in this page.

Anyway, I just want to ask for permission whether if it is possible for me or someone to stream or upload a video whilst playing your game "Spud Tablet ", online.

Also if it is possible, I would like to monetize and use superchat on stream and video. 

I am sorry for the sudden message, thanks for your time.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi. Sorry, but I think you have commented on the wrong page - I have nothing to do with the game you have mentioned. 

I'm terribly sorry. I feel so bad. I mean this game "spud-tablet".

sincerely apologize for the mistyping.

Ah, no worries, it happens. 

Yes, it is entirely fine to use Spud Tablet in monetized streams or videos - that's pretty much what it was made for. 

A credit in the video or stream description (either to this itch page or to my twitter, @Virtual_Graves) would be greatly appreciated, but is not required.

This is amazing! Thank you so much for making this <3

I wish there was a way to use this with ipad's procreate ;;;w;;;

I was wondering if there would be a chance to be put on Mac someday? 

A mac version is unlikely, sorry - developing for mac is outside of my skillset.

Extremely based of you to make it free.
I hope that you get the deserved return on it by those who can!
i'm not a vtuber so its very unlikely ill ever use this, but i'm happy that the comunnity is so wholesome and full of individuals that help each other like this

Hi I have a problem with OBS confusing the two windows for one another and I never seem to get them in the same capture without one becoming the other - do I have to restart?

NVM!! turns out I just need to use window capture and not game TwT I forgot using filters for chroma was also a thing ;w;

I'm having a problem where the capture of the program looks fine on my main monitor, but when I move the window to my tablet (basically like a 3rd monitor) it gets weird - you can see in the GIF above how I when I change the which monitor the program is tracking it works fine on my main monitor but everything messes up when i use it on my drawing tablet!


Also - Is it possible to make the hand a bit smaller, I've had a look in the settings file and I might be stupid but I can't find anything on resizing the hand, I tried resizing the hand and arm images but that only messed the wrist up.


Is there an easy fix to make it smaller - it kinda covers a big part of my screen!

Hey there, is it possible to change which monitor is being tracked? For tablets with screens built in this doesn't seem to work as I'm assuming it's not the main monitor.


Thanks!

When opening the program two windows will open, one with the tablet and the hand, and one with the hand - if you move the tab with the hand down to the monitor you want it to track they will both track that specific monitor!

Can't wait to be able to support this.

Hiyo! I'd like to know if there's a way to add a GIF or any other image format that allows animations, instead of .PNG please?

Another question is if it's possible to edit the tablet image size/shape (the red zone!), thank you very much!

Heyo, the system I am using for graphics does not support animated formats, sorry.

This is great! Sent a donation, you guys really deserve it and did such an excellent job!  

If you can I'm in need of some help. The app works perfectly, except only when Windows Ink is activated. Everything stops right when I press the pen on the screen. The hand will only follow when the pen is not on the screen. 

Maybe this will help:
 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/design/input/pen-and-stylus-interac...

I know you said you might not update the app, but I'd like to just share this as if you decide to it will really help out me and a lot of people. Thank you guys again for creating this wonderful app 

(Update: Not too big of a deal since I can get some apps working like Krita and Photoshop working pressure wise without Windows ink)

Thank you for the donation!

That said, that is a very strange interaction, and I am afraid it may not be something we'll able to fix. Despite being intended for use with a drawing tablet, Spud Tablet is based entirely on cursor tracking, and not on anything tablet/pen specific. It appears that Windows Ink is preventing tablet/pen input from moving the cursor while it's actively drawing, so the arm doesn't move because the cursor isn't moving.

I'll see if I can figure out some way to work around that, but I can't promise I'll actually be able to come up with anything, sorry.

Absolutely, thank you for giving it a look! If you ever fix it, it'll be awesome but I understand that there are no promises. I still am absolutely in love with the software, I think it's really cool that this as well as Spud Controller exists. For the sake to help things like Twitch streams and VTuber things. 

Keep making stellar things! ✨

Yes, that is intended. The tracking for both the arm and the tablet is done by the Spud Arm window - that's the one you'll want to fullscreen behind your drawing software.

Thank you for made this set! I'm not good at english, but I have some problem with my settings.  The language is mandarin, hope you don't mind it.
The problem is I choose the game window for sources, and invisible background, but it still there, did I do something wrong on setting?

Yes, you need to use a Chroma Key Filter in your streaming software to get rid of the background colour. I hope that helps!

It's already ok now!  Thank you so much, I'm really love it!

Have you guys ever planned on a left-handed version??

It's a little weird, but it is possible to make Spud Arm left-handed. You should just need to set LeftyMode to true in Settings.ini, and then Transform -> Flip Horizontal on the Spud Arm source in OBS (or whatever stream software you use).

hello! i have this problem where it doesnt track correctly where the cursor its and idk what to do

my screen resolution its 1920x1080

To fix this problem you need the "Arm Rigging" to be the same canvas as for the Art program itself on whatever streaming software you're using!


Right click -> Transform -> Fit to Screen FOR BOTH DISPLAYED SCREENS and this should fix your issue :] happy arting!


edit: if its still funky looking go under 'Preferences' in your drawing program and mess around with the cursor and other settings it offers. I am currently doing that now and it's been improving! 

OMG edit 2....: Okay so this was a easy fix. What I did is SLIGHTLY adjusting the art program and leaving the Hand+Pen to be its full screen OBS size [which mine is 1270x720]. And it's fixed!

it worked!! thank so much!

There's no reason this should be using almost 90% GPU on a 2060 Super, how do I lower that?

I think I have fixed this with the 1.1 update that just went up! 

I suspect something was causing it to run at an uncapped framerate instead of at the 60fps that was intended, so there is now a more strict ini-configurable framerate limit that should make it impossible for it to run uncapped.

Aha, thank you!

Also reading my message back it probably falls a bit on the passive-aggressive side, I'm really sorry about that- it's never really my intention! <3

ahh if only i have a windows. do you think there could be a mac version someday :O ???

Thank you so much for this! I have a question. So I notice that the arm will move with my drawing tablet when I am on specific screens, but it will not move with my pen when I have Google Chrome or Microsoft Whiteboard open. It's fine with the mouse though. Is there any way to change the detection over Google Chrome and such?

Hello! I'm having a strange issue where the tablet version tends to flicker and be replaced with a black box, is there anything I can do to sort of help filter this out?

(-1)

Can you make an option for which screen the hand follows  from :P it would be helpful

(+1)

Is possibile to have MAC version? I will pay it for sure!

Very neat tool, tough would there be a reason its memory usage jumps to 2 gb?

(+1)

Oh, heck, that really should not be using that much RAM. Please let me know if you were using the default art or something custom, and roughly how long you'd had it open at that point. Outside of that, I'll dig around and see if I can figure out what's causing it, but thank you for letting me know.

(1 edit)

Sure thing, no problem!
I'm using small .png empty squares replacing the default Spud Arm textures. For the Spud Tablet, I'm using custom art but kept the dimensions of the default art.

Around 20-30 minutes after starting, when it reached 2gb, my computer had a lot of programs open. I was tinkering with VseeFace and OBS at that time.
The software hasn't reached that high a peak since then, but it still slowly rose from 17mb of memory to 130mb in around 40 minutes after I closed and reopened it.

Thanks for for creating this tool by the way!
