if your get errors, try updating your game

inspired by HSPE for honey select
this simple plugin lets you mirror legs and arms to the other side as well as in my opinion an easer way to pose
any feedback is appreciated.

* To use finger posing, make sure to put PHFingerSliders.cs on atoms you want to pose fingers with
* using the plugin as a session plugin is recommended


how does it work?
1 - add it to a any thing in the scene ( don't add it twice)

2 - open the UI by pressing the "Show UI" button or set your keybindings with keybindings.

* the load/save/reset pose work differently depending on posing mode (body and hand).

* you can choose to use either these buttons or the keyboard and mouse shortcuts ( go to the bottom for a how shortcuts work).


Hand posing mode (compatible with handpose presets)
a handy posing mode to make posing fingers easier

Hand posing mode (Minimal )
a handy posing mode to make posing fingers even easier ( you can combine the two modes for ultimate control)

notes:
. don't add the plugin twice in the scene.
. the source code is a mess but Donald Knuth said "premature optimization is the roots of all evil" and i took that personally ( i will fix it later i just want to add every necessary feature first)
. have fun and thank you

Todo:
. create a nicer UI
. add mirrored editing mode where your actions are mirrored to the other side directly
. custom key bindings.
. bring back the old controls
. create a VR UI

known bugs:
.
currently the symmetry mode won't work well if the two sides aren't identical in their position and rotation states.
. mirroring when IK link is on.

. moving the whole character and undoing causes it to be slightly offset from where it was before undoing.

This is an absolute game changer when it comes to posing. I was about to quit VaM as a new user until I found your plugin, now everyhing makes sene, no more trying to click nodes while moving my camera around. Thank you!.

My only suggestion would be to change the color of the buttons depening on the state of the controls (On, off, comply, etc).

I've had this plugin for a while, but I didn't really use it till I wanted to do finger posing. This makes it so easy. Getting comfortable with the UI takes a session or two, but now I use it for all aspects of fine tuning a pose.
Great work!

currently you can only offset (X,Y) and scale it , but I agree it would be cool if you can drag it with the mouse. maybe next update??
