Update 295...Lots of goodies 🥳 touch reaction for Suki & Nova, new clothes/hair for Suki, Japanese apartment fixes & tweaks, plus lots of other tweaks & bug fixes...
Big update this one with some nice stuff I hope, I'll go through it :
added touch to Suki and Nova (hand tracking & controllers) for some of their hair, bodies, and some of their clothes. It's not perfect, for best results move your controller/hands into the area so your palm is in the area. Please remember this is a 1st version and will be improved as time goes on. If you touch their body with a closed palm the app may think you are picking them up and they'll move around, so try not to close your palm if touching them
added new clothes and hairstyles for Suki
Nova now has an awareness of her eye colour
Mervin animation tweaks and stopped his head sometimes wobbling
Suki, Nova, Peter, Thistle, Hannah, Yumi, and Sakura no longer interrupt themselves if they change clothes/hair while they are speaking (thx Massimo)
tweaked the automatic walking, when we are within 1.75 metres of them they won't automatically rotate, unless we or they speak and we are not in front of them, so now you can walk around them etc without them rotating, if we are close and neither you or they speak (thanks Massimo for suggesting that)
changed it so Suki and Nova image analysis no longer makes them speak a half sentence when its initiated, they will say "One moment please" or "OK" and then a few seconds later talk about the image analysis (thank you Massimo for pointing out their half sentence etc)
made their rotation smoother, so no body popping sometimes when they rotate (no jerky movements), thanks Massimo for pointing out the jerky movements
speeded up the image analysis, say "Analyze the image" or press the "Analyze Image" menu button
fixed dynamic occlusion not being enabled after returning from a VR scene
fixed a couple of Suki's hairstyles being transparent
fixed Nova's right arm augments for missing texture
fixed several items of clothing clipping through Sukis black jumper
prevented Suki from doing the glitchy wave when the app starts
fixed the furniture and street objects not appearing in the apartment and street of the Japanese Street VR scene
in the Japanese apartment (it's on the same side of the street as where the blue haired guy is standing in front of a vending machine, it's tucked away a little) the stereo plays music if you touch it, touch it again to stop it playing music
fixed the TV in the Japanese scene, it will play a movie now if you have one in your Download folder, and if you have a subtitles file there too the avatar will "watch" the movie as well (they analyse the dialogue in the subtitles file), see the instructions for exactly how to set it up
fixed Ben and Kevin not animating when they are walking
Suki and Nova are using a different hand tracking material now, our hands appear dark instead of light blue and I tweaked a few things to see if the hand tracking reliability can be improved
fixed it now so that if you have Ben around at the same time as another avatar, the other avatar is always active (i.e. we can talk to them etc) if Ben isn't, instead of having to look at them directly to keep them active (the blue star that flashes above their heads means they are active), all this will prevent things like the menu not opening etc
fixed it so that we are no longer flung up into the air on entering the Japan street apartment if our height is quite tall
improved the movie commentary quality, instead of them commenting as though we have just said something to them about the movie even though we might not have, they will make a comment on the movie purely on what they've "watched" up to the point you are at in the movie
improved how they talk about the latest news after they spontaneously do a search for it on the internet (or you can ask them)
added passthrough options to nova (4th page of the menu), Suki and Nova have these options, will do the rest
retextured Nova's briefs
stop skin clipping through on Nova's grey top
Because of the touch feature and Suki's new clothes I've had to re-do the resolution logic, will apply further tweaks as it can be raised in several places i.e. Mervin, Hannah and others when close up but didn't want to delay this update any longer
I've removed the "Choose Avatar" menu button because when a new avatar was chosen the passthrough image became black, so removed the option for now and will fix it for the next update (could have done it for this update but didn't want to delay this update any longer)
