Better Bends - Yummy Arched back

-- What this Plugin Does:
- Progressively applies bend deformation correction morphs to the hip area & genital area, depending on how arched the back is.
- Designed to work also with Contortionist plugin with hip X angle unlocked for a realistic arched back.
- Custom morphs sculpted by hand with blender for accuracy. (feedback is welcome for improvements)

-- Additional Explanation:
- Disable Base Bend fix toggle: continuously disables native bend fix to avoid...

Does it do similar thing to this plugin https://hub.virtamate.com/resources/autoflutterhip.55815/ or is it different? i wanted to know cuz if the functionality of both are different for hip bending then i want to use them together unless they do the same then not both of them together.

Joint Correct/EE plugin does similar for other joints already. You could look into utilizing that with this possibly. https://hub.virtamate.com/resources/joint-correct.3542/ and https://hub.virtamate.com/resources/jointcorrectee.25933/

That's what i was going to ask, does it work with Jointcorrect?

Although it's perfect, you overlooked the deformation of the lower abdomen. Once you use your plugin, the lower abdomen will become very strange

I also want to know the answer to this question.

This plugin is still a work in progress & for now it only corrects the genitals & hip areas and doesn't correct the abdomen yet, the other joint correctives will be added with future updates

Also, send me snapshots of the lower abdomen looking "strange" so i can understand how to correct that shape deformation in future updates

No i don't think it's a great idea to use them both at the same time, you should use only one of them at a time.

pleasure!

Yes i already know that, i wanted to make my own adaptation of JCMs with my own custom made logic & accurate morphs. jointcorrect is good but it makes things look worse more often than not.

I personally think that JC's worst points are where the thigh joins the hip on the outside when bent @ 90degrees, it puts a REALLY weird kink in there.
Theres an indentation AND a ripple just below
It doesn't really correct for glutes when bent but i don't think it makes them any worse either.
I think JC is ESSENTIAL for arms/legs especially the insides of joints.
It doesn't know how to handle extreme contortions, which would be nice if it actually REVERSED the effect once you go past a certain angle on the legs for example.
I do like the fact that JC has sliders for each part of the body so that you can tweak and adjust.

Skynet, if your plugin is a WIP but you don't recommend using it with JC, what if you added the JC code to fill in the parts that you haven't done yet and keep the sliders for each portion of the body.
Then as you begin adding more, you can phase in your body morphs in place of JC's one section at a time.
It's a bit of a difficult ask to have people 100% commit to your plugin and ditch something that's been working for 80-90% of the use cases they have.




Would it be possible to work with Extreme contortions like these?

No i can't directly take from it code because it is licensed NC and i'm planning to use my plugin in paid content, this is why i had to make my own adaptation in the first place. same goes for morphs that i have to make everything from scratch which will take a lot of time as making JCMs morphs is not as straight forward as making head / body morphs.

And no i'm not asking to ditch jointcorrect if it works for you? i only told the reason why i'm making this one. you're free to use any plugin on the hub that works best for you obviously

does this replace your previouse "gape" morphs?

No that is different thing, you can combine that one with this one.
