Full Quest Support Attempt Progress: Update 6
Added 2025-01-05 02:13:25 +0000 UTCHello everyone, hope you had a good holiday. I have some AMAZING, and some bad news.
The bad news is that ALL of my previous animation has had a very bad migration and integration with unreal engine 5. Not only that, my animation files have redundant data and compatibility issues with Quest. As in it wont even let me package the game with those animation files included.
This is an emotional blow to me, as i hate animation. This also pushes the deadline back a bit, but transitions into the amazing news.
I had experimented in the past with characters that you can manually grab and pose, like you can in so many of the other VR porn games. However, unreal engine 4 didn't really have the proper toolset to do this easily.
BUT UNREAL ENGINE 5 DOES!
So, since this is a wonderful feature i can now do, i am going to focus on this for the next version of the game instead of animations (at least for the time being). This should get around the animations issues i have been experiencing.
