After successfully calibrating the cameras, you are ready to start full-body capture. This guide outlines the steps needed before starting your VRChat session:

Step 1: Enter Capturing Space

  • Enter the designated capturing space.
 

The user enters the capturing space

Step 2: Start Capture

  • Switch to the “Splits viewport” mode by clicking the double-bracket icon (2nd button from the top left) in Moverse Studio.
  • Press the Body Calibration button .
  • The user’s body will instantly appear in the 3D viewer.
  • Once your 3D body is visible, walk lightly inside the capturing space for 3-4 seconds.
 

The body is visible in the 3D viewer once the body solving is on

Step 3: Stabilize Capture with a Static Pose

  • Have the actor hold a static pose (like an A-pose) to stabilize tracking.
  If you need more time to get into an A-pose, set the countdown timer to more than 3 seconds (timer icon in the top toolbar).
 

The actor stands in A-pose in the middle of the capturing space to initialize body tracking

  • Press the Motion Tracking button to lock tracking.
  If you notice prolonged FPS drops after this step, you must repeat the body calibration process (Step 2).

Step 4: Continuous Capturing

  • The system is now ready to record your full-body motion.
 

The actor is ready to freely perform into the capturing space

Calibrating for VRChat

Now you’re ready to perform a Full-Body Tracking (FBT) calibration in the VRChat environment.
  • Once continuous capture (Step 4) is active, Moverse Studio automatically begins searching for a T-pose.
  • Put on your headset and grab the controllers. In the VRChat menu, find the FBT Calibration module — look for the “Calibrate” option at the bottom of the Launch Pad.
  • Align your body with the avatar’s T-pose. When you see the spheres’ positions update, press both controller Triggers.

T-Pose calibration.

  • Pressing the Triggers locks the T-pose calibration. In Moverse Studio, this is indicated by the T-pose button turning red (next to the “Motion Tracking” icon) and the ‘T’ icon overlaying the avatar also turning red.
 

The T-pose button and the 'T' icon turn red to indicate Moverse Capture has successfully aligned with VRChat's FBT poses.

  • Lower your arms to your sides and stay still for 10 seconds to ensure that the VRChat and Moverse Capture avatars are aligned.
  You must lower your arms and stay still for at least 10 seconds after FBT calibration to ensure proper avatar alignment.
  • To perform a new calibration: First, unlock detection by pressing the red T-pose button in Moverse Studio. It will turn cyan, indicating the system is actively searching for a T-pose again.
