Heat 0.4.4.2 Milestone - Modding, Female Player Body (Patreon)
Content
The two most requested features in two back-to-back months? We're on a roll! (and extremely exhausted)
A female playerbody based on Aurora has beed added. We'll be adding the other characters as player body bases in the future as well.
This is the first release of modding, and it currently supports adding new dildos and retexturing characters. Arbitrary objects and code can also be added, but there's no official support for it in the game yet.
You will need to download the Unity editor to mod the game, version 2019.4.40f1, and create a new project with the '3D' template. Then import the .unitypackage with the download link below. The rest of the instructions are available in the pdf included in the modding project.
You'll need to join the discord to download, share and discuss mods. For the time being we have to use Discord to distribute mods. To join the discord, link your Discord with Patreon and you'll automatically be added.
If you're an experienced modder, please let us know what you think of the implementation. We don't have much experience with making games moddable, so I'm unsure if we've done it well. We've also recently discovered a much better way of doing code modding, so we'll be migrating the current system to use that soon.
Check out the full changes below and please provide feedback in Discord! Thank you everyone for your continued support of Heat! Your support allows this game to exist!

Known Issues
Laser might not register with UI sometimes, possible fixes are: Game restart, by setting the game window to focus by clicking on it, or by alt-tabbing (let me know if this still happens, I may have fixed it)
Browser doesn't launch when hitting authenticate, or refuses to connect: Try running in admin mode or setting a different browser to default temporarily
Common Solutions to Game Issues
These are common solutions to many problems, ranging from the tongue not spawning to the game not launching in VR, or the game not authenticating. Try these out first if you're having issues, they work surprisingly often. If they don't work, message me and I'll be glad to help.
All issues (try these first):
Right click on verifyintegrity.ps1 and select 'Run with PowerShell' to validate your files. If this fails, redownload the game. The download got corrupted.
Make sure the game isn't installed within any folders that have winky faces or other unusual characters in them
Restart the game and your computer
Auth issues:
If you have a localhost error in your browser, press the auth trouble button below the authenticate button and follow the directions exactly.
Check "use alternate port" below the authenticate button
Run the game as admin
Make sure an antivirus isn't messing with Heat
Make sure game is let through firewall
Set a different browser to default temporarily
Disable adblocker temporarily
Disable any security that could prevent your computer from opening a socket and accepting a connection temporarily
VR issues:
Adding the game as a non-steam game then running from within SteamVR (if not working in VR)
If you're using Oculus and the game doesn't launch in VR, launch SteamVR and sit in it for about 30 seconds then run the game from within SteamVR
Reinstall/validate SteamVR and Oculus software
Update video drivers
Clicking on the game window with your mouse when the game is open then putting on your VR headset (if the UI laser doesn't work)
