1.16 Preview Video

This video shows of some of the new stuff in 1.16:

  • Clothing grab

  • Push posing

  • Hands models for motion controllers

  • Leap motion support

Additional items not shown have also been completed. Please see Trello board for more info.

1.16 release plans:

1.15.1 was a more major release than expected, and that was just 13 days ago. I will be on vacation next week, and it looks like there is at least another week of work to wrap up the release, so the release estimate is roughly 2 weeks from now.

Thank you all for your support and I hope you enjoy the preview video!

Hey Meshed, idk if you have done it already, but you can get a free set of steams EV3 controllers if you fill out their form saying you are in development. Deff what i plan on getting when it releases.

Good job, but the fingers are not realistic when there is the collision .... it squirms in all directions and it ruins the realistic .... it will be a parameter for the firmness of the fingers ...... thank you

s
seb37 · March 30, 2019

Bon travail, mais les doigts sont pas réaliste quand il y a la collision....il se tortillent dans tout les sens et cela gâche le réaliste....il faudrai un paramètre pour la fermeté des doigts......merci

I don't see a "1.16.0.0 Completed" section on Trello, is that normal? I was hoping to find detailed changelog for this release.

Future is coming) This game requires tactile feedback gloves. And a bottle of perfume) Does the game have feedback controller support? If so, how is it implemented?

Hagen Stups · March 26, 2019

Hi MeshedVR! Your product is getting better and better! I wanted to ask if there are any plans to add vibration to the simulation. Grab and hold should do permanent vibration until released to simulate the connection between you and your mate. I understand that doing exact haptics just by entering a model would be to difficult but the grab-vibrate thing would finally add some real feedback into the mix. Thanks for your wonderful work!

For those wondering what's going on, please check Trello: <a href="https://trello.com/b/LDlEpfvk/virt-a-mate-public-plans" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://trello.com/b/LDlEpfvk/virt-a-mate-public-plans</a> or the Discord server. I'm most active in those places. 1.16 should be out within a couple of days. I put more into it because I was having a bit of a snowball effect of fixing and improving things while adding more clothing.

ETA ?

Andrew · March 24, 2019

Meshed should simply ask his customers if they prefer bigger updates that take 'as long as they take', or monthly updates (containing whatever can be completed in a month), or something else. Find out what the majority of customers want and deliver that.

P
Patron · March 25, 2019

Sounds fair to me. I'm perfectly fine just adapting to longer times if that's what's best. I think we all get a bit antsy seeing these cool previews for a month and want to go play :)

P
Patron · March 24, 2019

Stephan that's rather insulting. I think some of us appreciate monthly updates for monthly payments, that's all. Nobody's criticizing the work, or the amount of effort put into this, we're literally hoping it comes out more frequently. That's quite the opposite in fact. :) --- Meshed can do what he likes---, we're simply giving input- which I think is about as fair a partnership as we can have. I am also a creator-level supporter, and have been since 2017.

Toshie27 · March 24, 2019

I also pay € 8 a month and pay it wonderfully for the great game wonderful game

Toshie27 · March 24, 2019

The best game of all time, those who complain because they are not fast enough have probably had a bad childhood. I love this game and I'm happy every time it gets better. The only thing really missing is a language package Sorry for my english

"We're joking meshed. We know how hard you work and the stress you put up with. Take all the time you need buddy." I mean, I wasn't. Sure, he does amazing work and this is miles ahead of anything else like it and is a quality product. But he has 5,580 backers. Even at the very bare minimum estimate, if *every single* Patreon was just a Teaser one, he's making $11,160/month, and $133k/year. That's minimum. He quit his job to work on this. His full-time job is releasing updates to this game and he's making INSANE money doing it. So that's why some people, like me, start to get impatient when he keeps going on vacation and delaying updates. Now I sound like an ass, sure, but I'm just doing a mini vent here. I've been at the $8/month tier since inception so obviously I'm not just some pop-in-pop-out troll who's not supporting the game. Just venting. He's extremely talented and is implementing and iterating on so many multi-faceted components. It's a lot to program. I have programmed in several languages and can only begin to estimate the amount of work he's doing. But this is just why we start to beg for ETAs once it's been a long, long time :)

V
Velocity · March 24, 2019

I agree. But then again, he's only one man, and only one man can do so much. Also don't forget that even if he has the cash, there's so damn much coding, bug killing, and research he has to do to get all of this actually working. And the cash doesn't only get the income to his own pocket, lots goes into the engine he uses, tools, assets that probably costs a tonne, plus also models he has to buy and experiment with. Sure he's rich now with the cash, but as said, still one man with so much mental capacity. Doesn't take a week to finish one research, specially if it's a field you've never touched before.

Toshie27 · March 22, 2019

Thank you so much :-)

DJ · March 22, 2019

Select the person control. Go to the "control" tab. Up at the top, you will find the "load look" and "save look" buttons. Once you have saved a look, you can load it into any person in any other scene. <a href="https://imgur.com/hmuv2ee" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://imgur.com/hmuv2ee</a>

That update with the sheet is freaking crazy! Love VAM! Basically the only thing I do on the PC anymore and the whole reason why I still use PC's and even currently upgrading to a 9900k and 2080ti ftw3 ultra and a fat m.2 fast drive just to help with loading my massive scenes I've been working on for months haha.

Toshie27 · March 17, 2019

Gibt es auch mal ein Tutorial 1.15.2 die Tutorials hier sind veraltet, wird es auch mal ein Language Pack geben ? es ist ein tolles Game aber nicht alle beherrschen die Englische Sprache und somit ist es kaum möglich dieses Game weiter zu spielen

Just a question .... how do we go to get a file "sound" in "URL"? thank you

D
DJ · March 17, 2019

From the main UI, hit the scene audio tab and you'll find options to load audio. Once loaded, it becomes available in the scene.

Please dont forget to fix the menu system! Searching threw 1000 items in the drop menu for the exact animation pattern is flipping killing me! I'm spending all my time prob 80% of my 4-6 hours a night doing that then creating! I should of been done with my scene weeks ago. Gona be 2 months on one scene.

i see that leap motion is being supported. anyway that the steam knuckles could get the same love?

M

Yes. I plan on enhancing the hand models to support rift hand poses and also knuckles once publicly available.

@meshedvr will it be possible to add a second leap motion sensor to get better tracking? <a href="http://blog.leapmotion.com/multiple-devices/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://blog.leapmotion.com/multiple-devices/</a>

Finally a reason to re install my leap motion :D need to get a mount for it

Mike Cwir · March 8, 2019

This is the most exciting update for me. I can't wait for it :). Every one of these 4 new features could be a reason for a single big update. And we get them at the same time :). I think quite a lot of folk here who use the desktop mode most of the time will pick up the headset more often with 1.16. Excellent work Meshed VR. I'm a proud supporter.

For those who discover the VR take a PIMAX4K, we can barely see the pixels and very good image quality, with the NOLOVR system, the whole 550 euros approximately ....

Dan · March 5, 2019

Making mesh based clothing was a stroke of genius on your part! It added so much more realism to the project. I'm a dedicated VR Patreon. Never tried the desktop mode. No wish to either. My 1070 runs it flawlessly. Please keep up the great work!

No Thanks · March 4, 2019

Epic. Also, hilarious gestures on your part

e
eclypse · March 4, 2019

Gives me a reason to slap the headset back on as I've been using the desktop mode since it was possible!

N
No Thanks · March 4, 2019

I've been using desktop a lot more as well. It's much better for the simulations, because I have some serious performance issues in VR otherwise - with a 7700k/1080 ti.

The whole push pull with real hands looks so realistic. Really looks like some real videos I saw of Matt McMullen manipulating some Realdolls into various poses. Impressive. I wonder if this tech could be used in the mega millions fashion industry to try out new clothes designs or something like that 😄

A
Andrew · March 3, 2019

This is going to be a great release! Push posing is going to make VAM more accessible too. When I first started using VAM I found the whole node manipulation thing really unintuitive. I appreciate it more now, but the complexity of VAM sometimes makes it feel like a physics sim rather than software erotica.
