NetWorkTracking Gaze Non-Functional

PhamtomWolf commented 2 years ago

I use NetWorkTracking to offload work to a second machine for 2 reasons, minimize CPU usage overall as well as make it utterly impossible to DOX myself

My issue is that Gaze tracking does not work no matter what i do...

So i have a simple question and im assuming the answer is no so here is the question

Does VMC Protocol support Gaze Tracking?

If it does then i honestly have no idea what i have or am doing wrong

If no then it would be useful to mention that Gaze Tracking doesn't work with Network tracking

Gaze tracking is supported over both network tracking and VMC protocol. A few things to check:

Ensure that the tracking quality is not set to toaster mode. Older versions of VSeeFace have a bug where having the tracking quality set to that will also affect the network tracking options.
Try turning gaze sensitivity and gaze strength all the way up.
Test it with the Vita model, to ensure it is not a model issue.

Ok, I managed to figure out what was wrong...

I had enabled fake gaze originally when I switched to network tracking because gaze tracking was not working on whichever version that was, but recently decided to try to get it working and I did, disabling fake gaze made it work just fine... kinda...

I use my phone for tracking so it is placed below my monitor and looks up at me at about 60 degrees (that is 60 degrees as read on a protractor, so 30 degrees tilted backwards)

so my eyeballs kinda disappear inside my head unless I put the strength down but doing that makes the gaze happen slower rather than happen at a reduced distance... (would be nice if there was a gaze offset that allowed you to move your gaze up and down to compensate for camera angle)

so for the current version, I have found a happy medium between slow and not looking like I have been possessed

Absolutely love the work you are doing for the Vtubing community and thank you

There is actually a gaze offset option, but it has to be enabled from the advanced settings. A lot of people used to misconfigure it by accident, so I had to hide it away a bit.

Ok yeah i have found it, thank you so much for the help and for creating multiple amazing tools for us to use, more so VSeeFace and OpenSeeFace
