Embody is a one-stop-shop plugin for possession purposes. It's the successor to Improved PoV, Passenger and Snug, adds eye contact in mirrors, vive trackers and leap motion integration; it supports exporting profiles, and there are so many features in it I lost count.

What is Embody?
  • It makes possession feel right by adjusting the eyes position, the hands' position, and by hiding the geometry so you don't see floating eyeballs when you're moving.
  • It allows easy and precise full-body tracking using Vive trackers and gives more options for adjustments
  • It adds features such as leap motion integration and mirrors eye tracking, so looking at yourself in the mirror feels more natural.
  • It allows dynamically adjusting your hands so you're able to touch yourself in real life and have the model do the same despite different body proportions.
  • It allows possessing you! This mode, known as Passenger, can induce nausea, however, but if you're comfortable with VR camera movement, it can create some very unique experiences.
  • It's the successor to the well-known Improved PoV, Passenger, and Snug plugins. It includes all features from each and more.
Ok, how do I use it?

How to report bugs?

You can activate the Diagnostics: Record Diag. Data toggle in Other settings, run the wizard to do what causes the issue (you can also take a snapshot in the Diagnostics screen, the wizard will automatically create snapshots), and send me the scene. The best way is through Discord.

Thanks to everyone who helped me

A ton of people helped me test and gave feedback through more than a month worth of private builds. I asked more of you than I usually do, especially for Vive trackers support (I don't have any myself) so know that this was not only my work.

Thanks to @VamTimbo, @VaMDeV, HD VR, @KittyMocap, @WeebUVR, @SupaRioAmateur, Odin, @miscreatedreality you've been helpful and it's great building stuff with people like you. As I've said before, this community is lucky to have you all.

For the poster image, a lot of great creators to thank too: @YameteOuji, @ddaamm, @SupaRioAmateur, @MacGruber, @SolidVault, @NoStage3 and @Nabuhiro; thanks for making all those assets available to us!
