Hello!! I‘ve been doing a lot of thinking recently about how I want to approach things because, well, I‘m frustrated with my own progress on the phonodroid world and I think shifting around things to ease the pressure off of it will end up better for me and everyone else. It’s no secret tha...

Hello! A lot has happened the last few days, would you believe. The biggest and most important thing of all that though, as mentioned on @smorbaa a few days ago, I got a new laptop for mobile work! After a lot of research I settled on one of the 2020 Macbook Pros in what was probably the most con...
2021-07-10 23:46:25 +0000 UTC View PostHello! I was made aware of a major issue with the titanium droid preventing them from importing correctly into unity this morning. I have just released a fix and replaced the link in the titanium release post with the new version! Thank you!

They're here!! They are running on the same back end as the base model, version 1.11 (with the weight paint hotfix of course).
They are more than just a texture job though, they have some custom modeling done to them as well adding vents on the sides and some more details on the inside sinc...

They've underwent some changes since their debut in the trailer! I wanted to spice up their looks a bit and make them easier for people to make texture edits of, and they now feature transparent plastic sections and vents on the side of their waist!
Not sure what time I'll be able to releas...

Just a quick post to mention I'm gonna have to delay the release of the update and alt parts to Tuesday because of unexpected circumstances making it harder to get as much done on saturday as I originally planned; My original hope was to get the trailer done so I could get a teaser for it...

Hello! This was a very sudden project for me I wanted to take a day on the side to do. This is the result! I took inspiration from many sources, from mid-late 1990's 3d studio logos to I Spy books! Also, the 2005 movie Robots. I cannot comment on the quality of that movie really ( I haven't seen ...

My goal with these is to make them as easy to change out as possible. They should all be on the same armature and shape keys so ideally peo...
2021-05-19 20:12:39 +0000 UTC View PostHello! You may have noticed there haven’t been a lot updates about the world recently, and there a few reasons for that, so I figured I may as well put out a proper announcement about it all.
The world is still very much in progress, but between fixing some things up on the Phonodroid mod...

I wanted to have gesture based emoting on the model, but i didn't it to be easy to accidentally trigger it when you dont want to, so I made a system where it treats left hand gestures as gates to allow the right hand to make different emotes! For example, putting the left hand and right hand both...
