Getting Started

In-App Tutorial

Meet V.I.T.R.O. — your built-in guide that walks you through every section of VMSC.

Meet V.I.T.R.O.

V.I.T.R.O. (Vryionic Integrated Technician & Robotic Operator) is the in-app tutorial assistant built into VMSC. When you first launch the application, V.I.T.R.O. offers to guide you through a step-by-step walkthrough of every major feature.

The tutorial is designed for users who are brand new to VMSC or stream integration tools in general. It covers everything from connecting TikTok to building complex rule chains — all through interactive, contextual prompts that appear directly on each page.

Tip

Even if you are experienced with stream tools, the tutorial is worth running at least once. It highlights VMSC-specific features like the rule engine's condition system and overlay widget linking that you might not discover on your own.

How the Tutorial Works

When V.I.T.R.O. activates, a tutorial panel appears at the top of the current page. Each step includes:

  • A description of what you are looking at and what it does
  • Highlighted UI elements — the relevant buttons, inputs, or panels pulse to draw your attention
  • An action prompt — V.I.T.R.O. asks you to try something (click a button, fill a field, etc.)
  • Navigation controls — skip forward, go back, or exit the tutorial at any time

The tutorial progresses through each section of the app in order. When a step requires you to navigate to a different page, V.I.T.R.O. automatically switches to that page for you.

Starting the Tutorial

First Launch

When you open VMSC for the very first time, V.I.T.R.O. appears on the Welcome Screen and offers to start the guided tour. Click Start Tutorial to begin, or Skip to jump straight into the app.

Replaying the Tutorial

You can replay the tutorial at any time:

  1. Open Settings from the sidebar
  2. Scroll to the General section
  3. Click Replay Tutorial

This resets the tutorial state and starts V.I.T.R.O. from the beginning, just like your first launch. Your existing rules, actions, and settings are not affected.

Tutorial Progress Is Saved

If you exit the tutorial partway through, V.I.T.R.O. remembers where you left off. The next time you open VMSC, you will be prompted to resume from your last step or start over.

What the Tutorial Covers

The tutorial is divided into sections that match the main areas of the VMSC interface. Here is a brief overview of each:

1. Dashboard Overview

V.I.T.R.O. introduces the main dashboard layout: the sidebar navigation, the Live Feed widget showing real-time events, the connection status indicator, and the quick-access toolbar. You learn how to read the event stream and understand the information each event card displays.

2. Platform Connections

The tutorial walks through connecting your streaming platforms. For TikTok, this includes entering your username, selecting a connection mode (Standalone or TikFinity), and understanding the Sign API and Live Checker. V.I.T.R.O. also covers connecting YouTube, Twitch, Kick, Streamlabs, and StreamElements — showing you how to authenticate each platform and read connection status indicators.

3. Rules & Actions

This is the longest section. V.I.T.R.O. guides you through creating a rule from scratch:

  • Selecting platforms using the platform selector bubbles and choosing an event type
  • Adding conditions (minimum gift value, username filters, cooldowns)
  • Browsing the Action Grid and attaching actions (VRChat OSC, PiShock, OpenShock, overlay triggers, webhooks, audio, TTS, and 29+ more)
  • Setting up timers (Countdown, Interval, Stopwatch) and timed toggles for boolean parameters
  • Testing the rule with the Dev Test Panel
  • Reordering and organizing rules

4. Outputs

V.I.T.R.O. covers each output type available in VMSC:

  • VRChat OSC — Sending avatar parameters, chatbox messages, and toggle states
  • PiShock — Configuring vibrate, shock, and beep operations with intensity limits
  • Script Runner — Executing local scripts or executables as action responses
  • Discord Webhooks — Sending formatted messages to Discord channels
  • Local Actions — Triggering system-level actions like playing sounds or launching programs

5. Stream Overlays

The overlay section demonstrates VMSC's visual overlay editor. V.I.T.R.O. shows you how to:

  • Create a new overlay canvas
  • Add widgets (text, images, videos, event feeds, goal trackers, countdown timers)
  • Position and resize widgets on the canvas
  • Copy the overlay URL for OBS Browser Source or TikTok Studio
  • Link widget updates to rule actions

6. AI Assistant

V.I.T.R.O. introduces the built-in AI assistant powered by Gemma 3 1B. The tutorial covers:

  • Downloading the AI model (if not already installed)
  • Using natural language to generate rules automatically
  • Reviewing and editing AI-suggested rule configurations
  • Understanding model limitations and when manual setup is better

7. Viewer Tracking

The viewer database tracks everyone who interacts with your stream. V.I.T.R.O. shows you how to browse viewer profiles, see gift history, and use viewer data in rule conditions (like different actions for first-time vs. returning viewers).

8. Settings & Profiles

The final tutorial section covers application settings, configuration profiles (for switching between different stream setups), and the import/export system for backing up your configuration.

Skipping and Navigating

You are not required to complete every tutorial step. At any point during the tutorial, you can:

Action How
Skip a step Click the Next arrow in the tutorial panel
Go back Click the Previous arrow to revisit the last step
Jump to a section Click the section name in the tutorial progress bar
Exit the tutorial Click the X button on the tutorial panel
Resume later Close VMSC and reopen it — V.I.T.R.O. will ask if you want to continue

Beyond the Tutorial

The in-app tutorial covers the essentials, but VMSC has more depth than a single walkthrough can convey. After completing the tutorial, we recommend exploring these resources:

AI Rule Generation

If you know what you want but are not sure how to configure it, try the AI assistant. Describe your goal in plain English — for example, "when someone sends 5 roses, play a dance animation for 10 seconds" — and the AI will generate the rule configuration for you. You can then review and tweak it before saving.
