TRSD submitted a new resource:

Vega - Custom - Full body fur and more. Demo scene with 21 poses powered by BodyLanguage

View attachment 444969

Liked OniEkohvius' Vega port so much I've tweaked and amassed some extra assets over the year of 2024:
  • Full body fur. Painstakingly brushed with VAM's hair tools. Low performance impact.
    • Which also means the white patch of fluff textured on her chest is now real.
    • In my testing, it did not see much if any performance impact. Sim and...

TRSD updated Vega - Full body fur+ with a new update entry:

New poses, tweaks, fixes

  • Fixed: Vega preset buttons (stock, custom) broken preset path.
  • 7 new poses.
  • New shader for the tail.
    • With some compromise. More dense and less fluff, but now receives shadows and all light sources properly.
      • by keeping the hairs short the halo effect this introduces is minimized. Still looks good though!
  • New dependency: Collider editor. Preset included. Now she can touch her own face.

This is really good, took an already good look and made it even better. The scene itself is solid too.
The CUAs seem to get put out of place when loading the look into another scene though. Not sure if it's because I saved the CUA preset in one of the extra poses or what, but would be nice if that gets fixed. Unless it's just me doing something wrong.

Thank you very much. It's nice to get some feedback.

BodyLanguage's idle forces cause this. The parenting locks in after she's started moving, and that causes it to be misaligned. It's why I have to have a calibration pose on scene load where all CUAs get aligned (it was a PITA to set up). not the issue in this case, but still something to keep in mind.

I've included a CUA manager preset in the var. But I just went to had a look and I think it's CUA Manager that doesn't list packages with presets like other plugins do. You can extract and place it manually:

But if you want to make your own you should first freeze physics on the person, and then go to pose and load the default pose, e.g. T-pose. Then you can save the preset.


I did some more testing. I got misalignment too in a clean scene. The person has to be at the same position and rotation as when the CUAM preset was created. For my preset that means zeroed. Pos 0,0,0 rot. 0,0,0.
I'm certain it's due to the tail. The CUA Controllers plugin isn't the cleanest solution, but it is the best. Bad stuff happens too if you remove the tail. I'll make a note of it for people.

Not sure what happened, but I extracted the custom preset from the .var using 7-Zip and then tried loading it in your scene for Vega using CUA Manager, and the result is she was forced into the t-pose and the CUAs seemingly got deleted.

Like I said I'm 99% sure all the problems are coming from the tail CUA controllers. Did you remove the tail from the scene first? Because to do that, you need to first go reload the CUA Controllers plugin on the tail. That removes the controller nodes. VAM seems to get stuck if you don't do this.
It's not nice but the other option we have for animating CUAs also has its own set of problems.

Getting issues now too unless I follow very rigid steps.
In an empty scene I have to:
  1. Zero the person position and rotation.
  2. Load default T-pose.
I'll probably change the CUAM preset to not include the tail, and have people load it seperately. The controller plugin removes the tail atom and readds it upon initialization which seems to cause a hiccup parenting the rest.
