BACKSTORY
This scene started as the demo environment for Groundhog Girls (GHG) Looks but I've been adding several features, making it my personal goto VR scene for checking out new looks and it really became my testing board for experimenting with VAM.

Interesting (to me) features:

• Gaze strength during animations - Pretty cool. Adds a personal touch to any animation.
• Multiple removable outfits - This was painful. The saves kept breaking the trigger connections unless the clothing was present at save time. And then when it came time to package I had a whole new set of problems.
• Separating position and rotation controls - Good for pedestal rotation during animations
• Getting the feet of different height girls to all touch the floor - Maybe there's a plugin for this but I couldn't find it.
• Passthrough - Properly configured passthrough is a game changer

So, I learned a lot and I liked the result so much I decided to polish it up with some pretty menus and share with the community.
It is VR focused so I (or you) should never have to go to edit mode and everything is focused around a central spot.
But, to me at least, the best thing is the quick switching through the base menu options. 4k/8k skins or complex clothing are great but long load times really suck. But, if that's your thing, you can always load any resource heavy look using the "Appearance Swapper" menu button.


TRY THIS ONE THING
If you do nothing else with this scene at least try this:

1. Open in VR (optimum but optional) and sit down
2. Press "Take a Seat" button
3. Play the "Angel Dance"

The song is my own creation. Technically, it's a collaboration between me, ChatGPT and Suno.com.
ChatGPT wrote the lyrics, I modified them , and Suno made a song out of it. It's almost scary how good AI music creation already is and its just going to get better. Plus, I couldn't believe the lyrics passed suno's content filters (titled "Fuck Fuck Room"), but it did and I think you'll like both it and the mocap dance.


PASSTHROUGH
If you've seen my other attempts at passthrough and thought, "this guy doesn't know what he's doing", you would have been right.
But after getting a Quest headset, I realized my mistakes and fixed them in this scene.
The light green (RGB=0,153,51) and the blue (RGB=0,71,187) color options are the defaults from Virtual Desktop.
But the big change for me was the dark green (RGB=7,32,7) which was a recommendation from Discord VAM2 Chroma Thread.
This dark green works better than anything I've seen. The blue or green outlines I get from the other setting were completely gone but unfortunately it still doesn't work great for black hair. Surprisingly, setting Virtual Desktop and VAM to slightly different colors actually helps. That thread recommended VD settings of 0,40,0 for this dark green.
If you have found a better color configuration, please let me know. I'm always looking the improve.
