MetaChat Beach

Scenes MetaChat Beach

Accidentally broke my ambience with my last update. Sound should work again :)

Also permanently disabled shadows on interior lighting. Just too performance heavy when in Sunset or Night Time Modes. Shadows affect the sky lighting only.
Whops, forgot to hide the _Master_Anchor node.
The test was semi successful. Half the items managed to stay where they should have. Other's however did not. Experimenting on which method will provide a constant fix.
Experimental attempt to try and prevent lobbies from collapsing all their furniture if someone joins incorrectly. Wish me luck!
Replaced the ambience beach sound with the VAMAtmosphere Plugin from @hazmhox

This allowed me to add ambient sounds that will muffle when you're out of line of sight, increasing immersion!

I also added some seagull and cricket sounds that change depending on time of day :)

and I replaced the shadow slider with a shadow toggle, so you can get more frames if you turn shadows off!
It bothered me that frames dropped so much when looking at the house direction from the docks.

It should come to no surprise to anyone, that reflective, are an absolute FPS killer.

So I've reduced done the following in the name of performance.

Removed the mirror on the right side of the bed.
The remaining interior mirrors had their physical size reduced and lowered their anti-aliasing to 1.

So I also removed the glass around the shower, having 3 pieces when showering absolutely tanked FPS, even if the reflective were low resolution.

Lowered the Shadow Quality of the Ambient Light, and also lowered the intensity of daytime by a little bit.
Took some serious look at the performance of the Beach, especially when looking at certain directions.

- Disabled the Movable Mirror by default

- I had hidden the glass around the shower. It is off by default, and will turn on if you turn on the interior shower now, giving way more performance on initial load.

- I have also removed the torches entirely. It isn't practical to have that many light sources, and through gameplay, people didn't really use it.
- Added a little Handle Prop for people to attach the PluginIdea's Handicam, so that those who have the plugin can load the plugin quickly, and others can "see" where it is.
- Fixed some typos on the Pink Dildo, and Fixed Hidden Status on the Anal Hook,
Removed the texture grain on the mirror as requested.
- Added a Water Reflection Toggle, not sure if it has any real affect on performance as I think it is just a texture layer, but it's there if you want it.

- Fixed the Low Quality Torches from not being already on by default.

- Removed the Plugin Idea's VR Handicam, as it is flagging this scene as having a non-hub hosted dependency, and therefore making the scene harder to find.

- Made the mirror a 50% taller so you can get a nice portrait look at yourself.

- Changed the Dildo control nodes to COMPLY instead of ON, so that they can both be pushed around, but also help prevent physics issues if left clipping into the level.
