By the way, please let me know here if you have any specific suggestions for how I can improve the starting UI!

Bilbo

Please also keep the hair clipping and loosen joints option. I use position mode on the laid back position (easier to view goodies in VR) and embody vertically. To be honest your UI is fine to me.

PixelPorts

I use desktop mainly because its a hassle to setup my VR haha but love the options for VR!

VR Adult Fun

I would have also chosen Desktop, as I use that during the day when I cant use VR. but it says only for people without VR :P

CuddleMocap

I guess I should mention that I assume that everyone uses the desktop mode button from time to time, regardless of whether they have VR. XD Which is why I worded it that way.

I appreciate the tips & instructions. I do use the Embody templates - but I should probably mention that the first thing I do is modify your embody templates. ;) Oh! And I should likely mention that the second thing I do is add custom shortcuts for all embody instances. Like "Joystick3" ("y" button on the Touch-controllers) for the locked Embody on person#2 atom. "LeftControl" for locked Embody instance. "Tab" for the Camride camera. Doesn't interfere with your UI-Buttons - but oftentimes, a shortcut is more convenient than trying to aim for a tiny button hidden behind a dancing character while your viewport is bouncing around.

Another feature request? Please provide a "Character Adjust Pose" - best would be if you add a third sequence to the timeline track, where both chars are moved to a free place in the environment and put into T-Pose. Person-Atom controllers between their feet. And a lightsource moved to illuminate them. The rest we can do ourselves (Add LFE's heightmeasure plugin etcetc.).

I feel like I suck using Embody. It never seems to be as effective for me as standard Possession mode with the ImprovedPoV plugin. Maybe it's because I never bother calibrating it to the current male model I use, idk. I also don't have any modern trackers (all my old ones are outdated for Index use).

CuddleMocap

I used to feel the same way, which is why I have always included Possession Mode. It wasn't until I came up with Embody No Hands that I decided to sit down and figure out what I was doing wrong with Embody and finally figured it out. The setup wizard really helps. I will probably continue to include Possession Mode for the people who still prefer it. Thank you for the feedback! :)

CuddleMocap

The Embody plugin is highly customizable, especially since you can save the preset to match your body. I try to leave the Embody settings alone so that people's presets can be automatically applied properly. My only concern for using joysticks and keybindings to activate Embody is that it is skipping the other actions found in the UI buttons, which help to prevent the scene from breaking. But it also depends on the scene. So if you say it works for you, then that's great! :)

CuddleMocap

I have gotten a couple requests to do a "Magic Button" like is found in Zinigo's scenes, and I have considered it. TBD's new Body Net plugin might be one I would consider including. However, I also feel like maybe it's not worth it because users can just save an appearance preset beforehand that matches Alana, so they don't have to do it after loading our scenes. I'll consider it, though. Thank you for the feedback!

MSpeck01

You have one of the best UI's. Well thought out and works well.

Spanky

I also agree your UI is fine with me, give you more time to focus on the main course ;) I personally use cam-ride mode whenever there is an option. Now that I have my VR, I use Embody+hands alot. I do notice I have to go into acidbubbles embody to adjust the position of the body, want to see the "FULL" glory of the look instead of my own chest. Mind you, it was in the laying position. Will let you know how the sitting position works. I do like that you give the option to turn off glutes physics. One of the biggest fps killer. Sometimes the boobs movement feels very rubberband-ish, would be nice to have a tutorial or guide to make them look and bounce more realistic. Maybe its just me, Ill mess around with titty magic to see if I get the results I want.

CuddleMocap

I wrote a big reply to your message then hit the wrong key and erased all of it. Dammit. Well anyway, I agree with everything you are saying. Thanks for the feedback. :)

I always use ImprovedPoV and turn off the "Only activate when possessed" to remove the head, then just navigate into position. I prefer the freedom to adjust and don't like to be clamped into position (also like to break out and watch from a different angle from time to time).

EdgyCuss

What I mostly do with the scenes is to use Transparency mode (plugin) on the male where I make the head, torso and arms invisible. Then I slide into the bottom near the legs and go from there. I find this even better than using embody or possession for immersion.

EdgyCuss

I love your mocaps.

CuddleMocap

Cool! Yea, if that's the point of view you are going for, that's a great way to do it! VaM is amazing because you can enjoy scenes from whatever position you want to. :)

I use "Embody No Hands" and Show VR Hands, this reduces janky collisions of arms with animated girl
