Copy a default VTube configuration to another computer with VTube

Back to VTube-STEP Back to VTube-LASER

WARNING The source and target computers should have the same VTube version before copying a configuration to the target computer. It is safe to copy a configuration from a source VTube computer to a target VTube computer as long as the program versions and build numbers on both computers are identical. If the versions and builds are not the same, then the VTube target computer may not be able to use the new configuration files. Click in the top toolbar Information button to check the current version for both VTubes before you copy a configuration.

Follow These Steps at the SOURCE VTube Computer

STEP 1 Press the System Options button in the SOURCE computer. (The source computer contains the configuration you want to use on other VTube computers.)
STEP 2 Press the Project Setup tab, and then press the Export VTube Configuration button.
STEP 3 Choose the location for the exported configuration file and press Save. VTube will build a filename that has the current date and time embedded in the name so that you know exactly which file to use in configuration imports.
STEP 4 VTube will export the configuration files to the one compressed file.
STEP 5 VTube will show a dialog when it is finished.
STEP 6 Exit the System Options menu. Take the exported configuration file to the target VTube computer.

Follow These Steps at the TARGET VTube Computer

STEP 1 If you used a memory chip or thumbdrive to store the configuration from the SOURCE computer, then insert that into the appropriate port on the TARGET computer now.
STEP 2 Press the System Options button in the TARGET computer. (The target computer will import the the configuration you want to use from the SOURCE VTube computer.)
STEP 3 Press the Project Setup tab, and then press the Import VTube Configuration button.
STEP 4 Find the exported configuration file, select it, and press Open. VTube will build a filename that has the current date and time embedded in the name so that you know exactly which file to use in configuration imports.
STEP 5 VTube will warn you with a dialog that the default configurations will be reset based on the values from the SOURCE computer if you continue. Press Continue.
STEP 6 VTube will show a dialog when it is finished importing the configuration.
STEP 7 After you press OK, VTube will automatically exit the System Options menu. The new default setup in the TARGET computer will now be active.
