Hey Eros, glad you are enjoying it :)

Could you explain a bit more detailed what it is you want the plugin to achieve? Do you mean for scenes with dancing and such? Should it stroke to the rythm of the music? Let me know and ill see what i can do :)
I like the idea of activating to music. To be able to trigger it using sound with plugins like Hal90001's beat it would be great. In fact being able to trigger movement/vibration by use of a trigger via timeline would be awesome as well.
 
Hello LinusMinus, thank you for your quick reply. I thought it might be possible to link the Handy 2 Pro to the pelvic movement of a character. For example, a woman moving her hips in a cowgirl-like position (but without a penis or penetration), with those same movements being replicated on the Handy 2 Pro. So it would synchronize with the movement of the pelvis, hips, or genital area connected to a person, without necessarily relying on timeline detection. I am not sure whether I have expressed my idea more clearly.
 
Hey LinusMinus, thanks a bunch for working on this! I have a Handy 2, and a Handy 1, and I'm not able to get this plugin to a state where it's actually usable so far. I've tried putting the device in Bluetooth only mode, and I've tried both the Handy 1 and Handy 2.

For the auto-detection, it seems that the only way to reduce the jumping jitters as the slider moves on the Handy is to drop Max Send Rate to minimum, crank Noise Filter, and increase the duration padding.. Which results in inaccurate and delayed movement. Which is actually fine to be honest, since the Timeline integration to me is by far the greatest value proposition of this plugin

Unfortunately, the timeline integration has the same issue, as well as one other. Loading up a few animation preset scenes like Temple Sex, and it seems that the Timeline loops either are picking up on a non-relevant Timeline, or are struggling to handle timeline loops that are around 2 seconds (between 70-95 samples). The movement, even with the settings above in place, is super jilting and off, and the autodetection actually is superior which shouldn't be the case based on how you describe the Timeline look-ahead.

For UI, the log box under the Timeline check indicates it seems to keep sampling the loop over and over even when I don't click the button to manually tell it to - Is that intentional? Also, there is no Smoothing option, if you've changed that to Noise Filter, might want to update the top description page.

On another scene, PXL BJ Controls, the plugin I think is looking just straight up at the wrong timeline plugin on the female atom, as no loops are picked up at all (And there are two plugins, one for expressions, one for the animation) -> so maybe a selector override for the timeline plugin to point at is needed. Maybe that was the issue with the Temple Sex scene too, it was picking up the wrong Timeline.

I don't really want to overclock my Handy 2 -> Would you be willing to drop your overclock and just see if anything materially changes with your performance? That would solve it for all of us whether an overclocked Handy 2 Pro is needed to make this plugin work well. I'll keep trying some different animation scenes out to see if I can narrow it down further. Thanks!
 
Please fix the pink ball becoming visible in orifices, thank you! And many times, we need to restart Intiface after disconnecting in VaM- otherwise it won't see the toys correctly. Also, sometimes it gets stuck to being and I still get rumble unless I press disconnect.
 
Anyone have any tips to smooth out the handy 2? It connects but the motion is jerky no matter what I do
Hello LinusMinus, thank you for all of your great work about strokesync plugin. I have the Handy 2 Pro and it brings a real feel. Congrats about that ! Bravo. It works perfectly !

:unsure: I have a request for further updates maybe : is it possible to load the plugin into a character only (female or male) and synchronize with movement detected from belly, or hip, or genitals. It may be very usefull for solo sessions. (without penetration needed like now for example with 2 characters or finger use)
What do you think ?

I am having some issues getting this to work with my handy2. It connects through intiface but is very jerky no matter what setting I try. Would you mind sharing how you got it to work smoothly?
 
Sorry about the long response time here. Work is killing me right now. So much coding to do, so little time. I am reading your posts and requests so fret not!
Updates and support will come soon. Thanks for your patience :)
 
LinusMinus updated StrokerSync with a new update entry:

Lets DANCE - new Solo Source & Timeline Learning fixed

Developing, debugging and updating plugins takes time. Your support pays for my coffee & the time it takes to keep the plugins running smoothly.
Support me on ko-fi


New: Solo Source
Beta release, try it out in dance scenes and such and let me know what you think

Fix: Timeline Curve Learning

Fix: Clitoral Zone invisible by default

Hey Morderath :)

I did some testing on my Handy 2 Pro, setting it back to normal settings (not overclocked) and played around a bit in VaM. It is indeed a bit yankier but it sounds to me like it's way worse for you from what you describe.
For me, the best settings was sticking to 20Hz update rate, setting duration padding to max (100ms) and the noise filtering to 0.2. It's still a little yanky but it should definitely be usable. Try these out and get back to me if the problem persists and I'll see what I can do. Perhaps it's a difference between Handy 2 and Handy 2 Pro.

Also, please try out the timeline integration again. There was a bug, or my brain was just cooked from my 'real job', but it should work way better now after I adjusted the math.

I have not yet had the time to integrate a selector override for the timeline but it's in the works. Hope this update gives you a better experience for now! :)

Hey Mr Pibb :)

Try leaving the update rate at 20Hz, set the duration padding to max (100ms) and noise filter at 0.2. Let me know if this helps.

Hey Femma! :)

The circle is just an indicator of the detection radius for the clit trigger. The circle can be turned on or off in the settings. I changed it to be invisible by default now so it should not be visible when you load the plugin :)
 
Hello LinusMinus, thank you for your quick reply. I thought it might be possible to link the Handy 2 Pro to the pelvic movement of a character.

Hey Eros! :)

I just added a new motion source called Solo. Try it out and let me know what you think :)
 
Hey Mr Pibb :)Unfortunitalely

thanks for the quick response. unfortunately I am having the same problems with these settings. I have tried other plugins like vamlaunch and have had similar problems but not as pronounced. i will keep trying and report back if I come up with a different result.
