Embody: Progress
Added 2021-01-15 20:36:11 +0000 UTCOk, things are getting very interesting. Here's a quick recap of Embody's progress.
- Bundles Improved PoV, Passenger and Snug
- Adds new features to Passenger, such as "look at object", automatic eye position and improved performance
- Adds new features to Improved PoV, such as the ability to hide eye reflections, glasses and other face clothing
- Provides single-click automatic world scale based on player height, even if the VR model is not standing
- Built-in trackers integration (+ vive trackers), with local offset rotation (lets you adjust the hand angle around the hand center instead of the wrist)
- Look at yourself in mirrors (yes, plural) regardless of the mirror angle
- Snug wizard with live posing so you don't have to get a doctorate to set it up
- Import/export settings, but relative to the model. This means importing settings on another model with different proportions should mostly work, letting you possess any model quickly.
It's extremely nice to run possession instantaneously in a way that works, and clicks. I'm again deep in math mud and my head hurts, but I think it'll be worth it.
I have other ideas, like spawning mirrors quickly with good positioning and settings, and there's a lot of work to get this in your hands so it's far from done, but everything listed before really works so it's just a matter of patience for you and diligent work for me :)
I'm looking forward to start getting feedback! As usual, let me know what you think on Discord!
