I am excited to announce that I have officially joined the MeshedVR team and will be developing expressions and emotions for VaM 2.X! Much of my time the last couple months has been spent on learning Unity and on various tasks for the team, as well as creating content for vamX.

For my Patrons, I have been hard at work getting up to speed on animations for VaM. I am now very pleased to give you this scene, "Undress and Oops", which took many many hours to complete. This is the first of many and I have a lot of enticing ideas. My future releases will now include scenes and a UI to showcase the new expression packs. As a note: I agonized over whether to release this first scene for free - and ultimately decided that my Patrons should get an extended director's cut version, and a shorter version with less features will be available on the hub. In the future, my animation works will be Patron's only. I needed this one to be partially free to show my skills to the community.

Finally, I have created a Discord channel so that I can post more frequently about my current progress and WIPs, post screenshots, and answer questions. I look forward to interacting with you all there. If you need help, Patreon has a guide for connecting your Discord account.

THE SCENE:

Get the download here or from the pinned post - "Undress and Oops". Don't forget the dependency list included.

Some special features:

- The control node is not baked into the animations (except for the spin animation, where the control node is necessary). What this means: that you can move the model to a new location while the animations are playing.

- The head node is not baked into the animations, and the position is turned off. I opted to use a plugin to control the position of the head and gaze rather than animate the head movements. What this means: You can turn the head, change the gaze, or even load a model of a different height and size without disrupting the animation.

- Includes one new expression morph: AA Smile Calm

Future Plans:

There are some elements I just couldn't add before this release. I will be including a help screen to show you how to import a different model or replace the clothing items with custom outfits.

I will be adding an option to change the emotion of the entire scene, making the character cute, sexy, scared, angry, etc.

I will also be adding new poses and idles for the spin animation, including things like bending over, hanging, laying on back, etc.
