Major update for VirtualLock. Solving some old issues and allowing you better to define where the player is allowed to look at. You can now define a whole focus area, not just a single point. The reasoning here is that staring at a small point (e.g. the face of your mistress) for a couple of minutes in VR can cause your eyes to "defocus". You can actually loose the "3D" effect, despite being in VR. Allowing the player to look around a bit is essential.

Changelog

• FocusArea: Instead of a single focus point, VirtualLock now supports multiple FocusArea capsule shapes in the scene. More info:
  • You can freely define radius and height of each capsule. A height of zero just gives you a sphere.
  • The focus area marks the safe area you are allowed to look at, which means where the center of your headset display needs to point at. The Display/Warn/Breach Angle value from VirtualLock measures the angle from the edge of that safe area.
  • E.g. just put FocusArea plugins on a couple of Empty atoms and parent them to some bodyparts.
  • The combined focus area formed by all the plugins in your scene can be drawn as transparent red area via a checkbox on the VirtualLock plugin. See screenshot.
• VirtualLock: Added checkbox to fix head/hand tracking when used together with Embody. With a PositionLock from Embody, actually the plugin thought the hands were moving when you moved your head.
• VirtualLock: Fixed issue with the position of the head-up display lagging one frame behind in some situations.
• VirtualLock: Fixed hand-tracking in Desktop mode.
• VirtualLock: Added Display Radius/Angle to show UI a bit before triggering a warning.
• Demo scenes updated with current plugin version. Placed FocusArea's in the first demo scene.

Just posted a guide on how you could use a Raspberry PI and a Relay board to switch devices like vibrators and E-Stim from VaM. Also philosophizing about the holy grail of VR adult software...detecting your real life (pre-)orgasms to trigger things in VaM:

Guides - Switching things with Raspberry PI + Relay Board

This is a quick DIY guide how you could switch devices on/off or switch between E-Stim channels using a Raspberry PI, a Relay board and the Connect plugin directly from your VaM scene using triggers. No soldering needed. As this is just the...

Changelog

• Making the Connect plugin working again under the new VaM security restrictions. Thanks @ brycerer for reporting the issue, as I only tested it after the big 1.20.77.6 update, but ironically it broke after Meshed did another minor update after that. Anyway, works with 1.20.77.9 now.
• Updated demo scene with the new technical possibilities of IdlePoser 7. Much more animation variety now and idle stuff going on now.
• Used the opportunity to try out doing spank animation with IdlePoser, which is now possible thanks to one-way transitions and tweakable easing-curves.
• Trying to use IdlePoser as a point of interest system for the EyeTargetControl and experimenting with MicroIdle-Anchors via AnimationPatterns.
• New Look so it will be entirely hub-hosted now after leaving EarlyAccess.

• Demo: Slightly improved light setup which was possible now with yesterdays fixes to SkyMagic.
