There are multiple ways to integrate your avatar into OBS, games, livestreams, or virtual events. Whether you’re gaming, presenting, or hosting an interactive session
Choose your preferred method below to get started:
Chroma Key (no subscription. Simple green screen method that works in any OBS version)
Easiest setup – works with all versions of OBS
This classic green screen method removes the background color around your avatar using a filter.
Set a solid background color in Animaze
In Animaze → backgrounds → choose a flat, bright color as your background (green, blue, or magenta are best).
Avoid gradients or busy scenes. Keep it clean.
Enable Virtual Camera in Animaze
Click Enable Virtual Camera (bottom center) in the Animaze app.
This allows OBS to see your avatar as a webcam source.
Open OBS and Add Video Capture Device
Create a new Scene
Add a Video Capture Device source
Select Animaze Virtual Camera
Apply the Chroma Key Filter
Right-click the video source → select Filters
Go to effect filters press “+” add a Chroma Key filter
Choose the background color you picked earlier
Adjust similarity and smoothness sliders until the background disappears cleanly
💡 Perfect for beginners. Quick setup, no extra downloads, and works with the free version of Animaze.
Not as clean as transparency, but great for getting started!
Alpha Transparency using Spout2 (Best quality. Shows only the avatar with no background. Requires OBS plugin & Animaze subscription.)
Cleanest method for advanced users
This is the best option if you want the highest quality and full transparency. No green screen, no blending issues.
Install OBS Spout2 Plugin
In Animaze app go to Settings – Dedicated Capture Window and click the Install Spout2 OBS Plugin option.
Follow the installation instructions.
Enable Dedicated Capture in Animaze
In Animaze → Settings → Advanced → turn ON Dedicated Capture Window (available only with Plus/Pro subscriptions).
This gives you a clean, transparent window just for your avatar.
Open OBS and Add Spout Source
In OBS:
Create a new Scene
Add new Spout2 Capture source
Select “Animaze Dedicated Window” from the list
You’ll now see your avatar on a fully transparent background.
Layer over gameplay, backgrounds, or anything
Since your avatar has no background, you can now place it wherever you want. On top of games, slides, or any media.
💡 Best for streamers or creators who want perfect integration and a clean output.
No green edges, no cropping needed. Just plug and play with full control.
Alpha Transparency using OBS Game Capture (Good quality. Captures just the avatar window. Easier setup but needs a subscription.)
Great balance of quality and simplicity (requires subscription)
This method uses OBS’s built-in Game Capture feature to get the avatar with a transparent background. No plugins needed.
Enable Dedicated Capture in Animaze
Go to Animaze → Settings → Advanced → activate Dedicated Capture Window.
This opens a separate, borderless window that only shows the avatar.
Open OBS and Add Game Capture

This gives you a clean, transparent window just for your avatar.
Open OBS and Add Spout Source
In OBS:

Set “Allow Transparency” to ✅ Enabled
