New Features:
* Male character anatomy controls - please use responsibly! :D (you can animate the penis now such that it appears to have a mind of its own)
* Possess and align head
* no more messing with getting lined up with character before head possession. Also eliminates the snap.
* Hard reset - if you make a character explode (what exactly were you trying to do?), press this button. All is forgotten.
* Motion animation playback speed control
* Added option to enable which of position, rotation, or both is controlled when grabbing or possessing a control
* Helps fix some issues with GrabPoint - can disable rotation grab-ability on the GrabPoint such that it only acts as remote control of position
* All save/load preset/pose/appearance character buttons exposed to play mode and all backer levels
* Teasers and entertainers can now load community-created poses and appearance for the characters
* Community should post poses/appearance presets to share to this reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/VAMscenes/
Tweaks:
* Controllers now completely interchangeable (1 handed operation)
* Navigation overhaul
* Most notably, grab world navigation was added
* Teleport removed on Rift Touch, revised on Vive to not allow rotation. Still useful for moving long distances
* Major joint tweaks:
* Hand/wrist/arm revised. No longer gets shakes. Much more natural twists. When bending to extreme, now just wraps around to more stable position if needed.
* Tongue redone with new colliders and dynamics
* Finger wobble removed when moving quickly. Fingers much more stable now when touching something.
* Male anatomy distortion fixed.
* Toe curl issue fixed. Happened when bending feet in extremes.
* hip and feet hold rotation default spring increased from 100 to 250 for better default spring. Might change some existing scenes around slightly
* Soft-body physics:
* new prediction system to overcome physics->skin lag
* when moving character or joints quickly, soft joints now hold much better to movement giving a more natural look. Also greatly improves skin clipping when character is moving against another object or character.
* Breast soft physics tweaked to be a bit more natural. Less odd nipple issues if soft body physics params are adjusted from default.
* Glute soft colliders adjusted slightly to improve clipping
* Female genitalia adjusted to not be as resistent to penetration
* Faster morphing for morphs that change bone structure in some way. Should allow the tongue morphs to be animatable in future release. Some morphs will never be animatable (example: height) because they adjust too many nodes.
* Slider controls for UI dropboxes
* Can now modify dropboxes without looking. Example - change eye texture while looking at character.
* Help checkbox is now a user pref that remembers if you have it on/off
* When UI is off and targets hidden, grabbing now prefers to grab "On" targets over "Off" ones. Useful for targets that are grouped close together like hip/pelvis/abs/thighs.
* Glass params can now be modified in play mode (helps $2/$4 backers get this feature).
* World scaling - now scales in place around player
* because of this - free slider manipulation is disabled to prevent eye strain. Rapidly adjusting world scale can really hurt your eyes. So now scale can only be adjusted using increment/decrement buttons
* Decrement/Increment buttons added to AnimationPattern and AnimationStep objects
* UI for Atoms now open to special tab by default if available
Bug fixes:
* workaround for users not able to press Ready button. Provide new launch shortcuts.
* fixed scene save to be more than 100X faster - really helps scenes with longer animations
* fixed issue of 2 possession point getting possessed by same controller
* fixed ponytail initialization to prevent explosion
* fixed glasses clothing item not being in proper place when character had bone morphs applied (height, etc.)
* fixed issue where you could not grab a control if your controller was pointing at UI
* fixed issue with character getting distorted when gender has been changed
* fixed many UI oddities (extra tabs, incorrect labels, etc.)
* fixed reset/new scene not resetting everything
* fixed AnimationStep Remove button to properly remove
* minor text fixes
Performance:
* slight degradation in CPU performance from 1.1 due to new soft body physics prediction system

How do I run a program? Stopped on view ...<a href="http://www.bankfotek.pl/view/2101447" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.bankfotek.pl/view/2101447</a>
It looks like the program did not recognize your VR headset. This requires a VR headset and motion controllers to work. Do you have a Rift or Vive? If so, check that it is working with Oculus Home or SteamVR Home 1st. Then try to relaunch.
How do I run a program? Stopped on view ...
it's sorted now. I downloaded it again and it works fine. Played once upgraded to creator.Ive been looming for a game like this for a long time well done it amazing well impressed.
when i try to run ti fails to load mono error
I have never seen that error or had others report that. Can you private-message me the contents of VaM_Data/output_log.txt inside the directory where you installed? There may be more info in there to try to help you. You might also try a restart of your computer and/or reinstall of VaM.
Every time I go to download it from mega it gets about two thirds through the download before giving me some sort of memory error and stopping is there any other way to download this?
On the about page there is link to vrporn hosted download.
This is amazing! Great work Meshed! I will be upping my subscription, keep it rolling.
Absolutely love your work Meshed! You're working at an insane speed and the quality of the outcome just gets better and better. Can't wait to try this out!
Thank you! It is my 2nd and 3rd full time job! :)
1) The issue with the glasses/height slider is fixed, but the new hair is affected by this bug. Changing height will have the hair hovering/clipping through the model. 2) When holding the button while adjusting a morph, releasing the button outside the options window will deselect the "person" node, forcing you to target the node and click it again to continue fidling with the option. Could you please consider a little fix that will prevent this isue ? This way, you could select a morph slider and wiggle it while looking at the model. edit, whoops, forgot to mention that I love the new morphs and features :-D I hope you continue to improve it. Also that led me to increase my pledge.
Thanks for the bug reports. The 1st issue was reported and I will be making a patch release for it ASAP. For the 2nd one, I didn't realize it was doing that. I made a bug card for it here: <a href="https://trello.com/c/NGYjEy85." rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://trello.com/c/NGYjEy85.</a> Glad you are enjoying the new release. I have no plans on stopping.

Holy shit man I don't think I've seen such a magnitude of features in a 1 month release. Great job! Can't wait to check everything out!
I really despise MEGA as a download server. Firefox screwed up my download and now I'm being told I reached my download limit. Now I cannot access the download for another "5 hours." I tried using a VPN, but I'm still running into issues. Can we get some other download options please?
I have inquiry into vrporn to update to the new version. They don't currently have a way for me to update my downloads with them so I have to manually request it. Not sure how long it will take them to get it put up. Mega is pissing me off too. I'm a paying customer and they are limiting downloads from the client side for some regions. I'll be looking around at alternatives going forward.
When I tried to choose the new black lady hair it got stuck in the air floating like the glasses used to.
Yes - looking into it.
Thank you very much Meshed,full of new things to try, so we'll test it ^^Huge work again ;)
Thanks! Can't wait to see what you come up with! Thanks for posting scenes!
About the Reddit VMAscenes: When I go there, all I see are images. Is it because I have to be logged into Reddit in order to download the scenes? Until now, I've just been downloading contributed scenes from the community tab here and placing them in folders myself. Is using reddit somehow more automatic?
The download links are in the comments. Click the comment link instead of the top link (which usually takes you to a gif). It was done this way so you could have picture thumbnails.
Looks awesome! Love all the new face morphs! Can't wait to have more time to really play with it. Keep up the good work, and don't forget to take a break sometime!
Thank you! Yeah - I will try to take a break, but I'm having too much fun!
Thank for the prompt update!
Hey Meshed. Awesome update, really excited to continue trying out the new stuff. However, I was wondering if it could be possible to put the teleport back to normal? For some reason it now twists with my head and not the controller meaning I cannot teleport into any given direction unless it is forward. I do like that you now have to click to teleport but the system is rendered useless by the fact the direction wont change properly. Lastly, it takes up a lot of touchpad space on the right hand which means every time I grab the joints the teleport box comes up. Even if you plan to keep the controls the same, is there a way to reset them so I can teleport and change the direction by twisting the controller again?
I did remove teleport rotation because it was quite confusing and hard to get the direction correct. You simply aim the controller to where you want to teleport now. You can aim in any direction, but it will never rotate your view. There is the new "grab world" navigation that is much better. Have you tried it? You touch the bottom part of touchpad and rotate the controller to pull the world around. The middle band of the touchpads are the select area and should not engage either of the navigation options. I can look into adding back a teleport rotation option, but please try grab world 1st to see if it works for you.
Great stuff Meshed VR. Amazed that you have achieved so much in just one short month. And congratulations on achieving 1600 patrons. <a href="https://graphtreon.com/creator/meshedvr" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://graphtreon.com/creator/meshedvr</a> That's up from 750 in the last month alone. Now rated 27th in the Adult Games ranking. Well done ! I'm sure this upward trend will continue as the word gets out on this project which has now set the bar in Adult VR games.
Thank you! I'm very excited for the support. Thank you everyone for your generosity! I have been able to put so much more into this because of you. I'm spending way less time on my day job and way more time on this due to the response. I hope to get to 3000 backers, quit my day job, and crack top 100 on all of Patreon, but I know that might be tough!
I am so happy that this project exists - it's so fucking amazing! Thank you MeshedVR for your hard work!
Thank you! I appreciate your ongoing suggestions. They help stir the creative juices!
Amazing! 150+ facial morphs! Can’t wait to have a play with this, it should add a huge amount of creative potential!
Well they are not all face morphs, but I think that is the majority of them.
First! Can't wait to try
