Naturalis v1.4-alpha10b (86.var)

Fixed two issues introduced in alpha10:

• Fixed issue where the calibration pose did not correctly update the hip joint rotation.

• Fixed issue where loading a scene saved with alpha9 (84.var) would complain about missing glute under curve morphs. Those morphs, like the g-force morphs, are now forced to the default configurations using the morphs from the current packag...

Naturalis v1.4-alpha10 (85.var)

Hello everyone. This release contains updated glute g-force morphs, and all new g-force morphs for calves and upper arms, plus a few fixes.

Updated glute g-force morphs

The updated glute morphs are the first result of a new DAZ workflow for creating high quality morphs for animation. This workflow is the handiwork of a 3d artist/modeler that I've been exchanging ideas with and rec...

Naturalis v1.4-alpha9 (84.var)

Shapeshift morphing system technical improvements

Alright. My goals with this release were to improve the thigh g-force morphs, and to implement glute undercurve morphs and anchor them to the thigh joint angle.

It turned out that simply implementing and configuring those morphs was not enough to get the effects I wanted. So I implemented a few technical improvements to the morphin...

Naturalis v1.3 free release

Naturalis v1.3 is now available for free on the Hub! https://hub.virtamate.com/resources/naturalis-free.35101/update/67562/

UXPlus v1.1.1 (12.var)

Hi! Back after a summer break of sorts. Didn't really plan it, it just kind of happened due to various circumstances. Anyway, all good, things are now progressing. Let's get to the content of this release - a quick summary:

• g-force morphs for the overall chest area

• added more morphs for the back

Naturalis v1.4-alpha7 (82.var)

Hi, this is a small release that fixes some issues and adds marginal improvements to the in-plugin preset and clothing profile preset UI.

Fixes

• Reverted an earlier change from alpha6 in which I tried to load poses during calibration entirely in memory (without saving/loading pose files). It caused atoms linked to the person's joints to shift relative to their positions bef...

Naturalis v1.4-alpha6c (81.var)

Patching some bugs:

• fixed bad pose loading logic in the previous two releases (alpha6 and alpha6b) that could result in errors due to interactions with other plugins during calibration, and crash the atom/scene due to physics corruption

• fixed issue where restoring the pose after calibration did not properly snap the joints to their stored positions

• fi...

Naturalis v1.4-alpha6b (80.var)

• Fixed issue present since v1.4-alpha4 where clothing profiles did not save correctly

• In the G-force Morphs tab, updated the Reset button of the primary/secondary anchor to restore the anchor selection and sliders/toggles to the defaults for that morph (instead of unchecking the boxes and setting sliders to 0)

Naturalis v1.4-alpha6 (79.var)

After much ado, a new release is here 🎉

Summary:

• I ended up redoing the abdomen g-force morphs, it was easier than to try to fix issues with the previous morphs (more on that below).

• added and improved glute g-force morphs

• introduced thigh g-force morphs

• the way that g-force morphs jiggle can now be controlled with springs and ...

A quick progress update

Hi, just to notify everyone that the update I planned a week ago to be released within a week is slightly behind schedule. Probably a few more days before it's ready. Thanks for your patience!

I decided to introduce a simple spring-damper setup that can be applied to the g-force morphs per region or per morph. These enable a much better control over how the morphs jiggle, co...

Development status

Progress in Shapeshift:

• work on improving the UI

• grouped the joints (anchors of g-force and angle morphs) into regions, and added sliders for setting morphing multipliers per region so you don't have to tweak each individual morph just to have more/less effect on a specific region

• the smooth frames setting of g-force morphs is now also a region settin...

I updated the main tab layouts of TittyMagic, BootyMagic and PussyMagic to make better use of the available space. The Naturalis user preferences button is split into separate General and Calibration preferences buttons, and the Preferences & More section can fit some additional content later....

Naturalis framerate testing

I've been doing some thorough testing of the performance impact of Naturalis v1.4. At a high level, there's some code that would benefit from optimization, but the impact of optimizing code is going to be very small in comparison to optimizing the morphs.

Shapeshift WIP: abdomen g-force morphing

The video demonstrates how gravity affects the abdomen shape, how moving joints connected to the abdomen produces jiggles, and the dramatic difference when vibrating the belly with a cycle force.

The abdomen/belly region was natural choice for implementing the first set of morphs for many reasons:

• it doesn't have soft physics, so it really needs some jiggle morphs

Development status

Hi. I've made some good progress on the technical side and UI. Not much progress on the morphs yet, however I'm pretty confident that the acceleration based morphs won't take long to create.

The joint angle based morphs are more labor intensive to do because of the requirement to start the sculpting of each morph from a different pose (specific joint at a specific angle), and those poses ...

Development status

Hey everyone, just checking in with a progress update.

Developments since the last update

• Joint angle morphing system requirements are mostly done, it works similarly to the acceleration system but the lower and upper limits are defined as joint angles rather than as G-forces

• Morph values are adjusted along a smooth curve, so that they change more slowly nea...

VAM no longer hangs and eventually crashes when reordering a plugins list that contains a particularly large Timeline instance.

That's it! Since this fix is unlikely to be relevant to many people, I didn't send the link to everyone's inbox. You can find it in the membership tab. :)

Joint Acceleration Morphing tech showcase

Hi.

A month and a half ago, I laid out a rough plan for Naturalis 1.4 in this development status post.

The idea was to release a separate general joint angle morphing plugin, and then develop a new morphing system with new custom morphs for Naturalis. I've made some changes this plan, and I'm...

Naturalis v1.4-alpha3 (76.var)

A small patch and technical update, no new features.

• Fixed issue where the simulation of gravity that the plugin runs during calibration did not stop at the end of calibration until you navigated into the plugin UI and out again, or manually clicked "Stop" in the gravity controls panel (introduced in v1.4-alpha2)

• At the end of calibration, the plugin now restores th...

Hello! Here's a small new plugin that allows you to adjust the masses of different regions of the body, and includes defaults that distribute the mass realistically for a total of 60 kg.

The default mass in VAM is weird, the person only weighs 27.4 kg and the mass is not distributed correctly. It's also a surprising that the masses of different joints are not adjustable in the UI by defa...
