#STARTING OUT ON LINUX # STARTING OUT ON LINUX
Hello Everyone this is KyloNeko and I am here with a guide to help you get started on Linux! This is a Guide that is Intended to be a way for Vtubers to want to be able to Move away from Windows (or Mac) or People who were not too Keen on the windows Recall Feature, I hope this guide helps a lot of people out as it took me awhile to switch over and get things worked out, but trust me it works out correctly as I have done a lot of testing on Linux with Various applications that I daily Drive. Make sure you find or test a Linux distro that you intend to use long term you can use Distro Sea to help you figure this out: https://distrosea.com/ . Once you have selected your flavor of Distro you can then proceed to the next step. Hello Everyone this is KyloNeko and I am here with a guide to help you get started on Linux!

Select your drive you intend to use, locate the `.iso` file you downloaded and then proceed to flash it to the usb drive, once you do that , I HIGHLY suggest you also BACK UP any files you wanted to keep from windows to a different drive or use google drive , and then reboot your pc and either go into the bios and select your LINUX bootable drive as the option or press F12 Repeatedly until the drive options appear , you will then be able to boot into a Linux bootloader called grub , you can then select the top option (usually) and then be able to boot into a welcome screen. Make sure you do everything the welcome screen install tells you to (and maybe play around with the os more before you install) and then once your distro is installed you can then be notified to reboot into the os. After you have done that you will be given another welcome screen to follow and install any updates or drivers you deem necessary.

Now Unfortunately the Plugin for Spout 2 Doesn’t work in Obs (on linux) as of right now , But there's at least 2 alternatives. You can either use a Chroma Keyed Window Capture , or you can enable NDI capture for Vtube studio. In my experience the Window Capture method is the best as it offers No latency despite the UI being visible so that is what will be covered in this guide.
