Plugins Shoe Helper

A plugin with various utilities for high-heeled shoes:

• Foot and toe angle adjust
• Toe stiffness controls
• Colliders for the heel and toe

Can be used as a clothing plugin, meaning it can be packaged up with shoe clothing items and auto-applied when they are put on. See

For more general use, also check out @CheesyFX 's HeelAdjust2, that has all the same features and more


Toe/Foot Angle Adjust

Toe adjustment uses the same mechanisms as vam's built-in Harli Heels.

By default, foot adjustment will alter the angle at which the foot controller attaches to the body. The idea there is that the controller doesn't need to be adjusted for the footwear, and existing poses/animations should mostly work. This behavior can be disabled if needed.

Toe Stiffness

VAM has a control node for all the toes on the foot. This is what typically see. However, each toe also has an independent body with its own physics. This is why no matter how much you try to constrain the toe controls, the individual toes are still very loose. (Note, you can add controllers to each toe with my TongueAndFingerControllers Plugin)

Collision

Will add colliders for the heel and toe. These can be individually disabled.

The heel collider is a capsule and will collide with clothing.

The toe collider can be 'attached' to the toe or foot.

Usage

1. Add to a model
2. Select shoe clothing from drop-down
3. Configure sliders as needed
