EROS 0.3 Alpha - Patreon Build

Thanks! Yeah I tried to respond to your earlier message, but it wasn't there after clicking on it in my email, so I'm not sure why it got deleted. But I was able to get some of the things you mentioned completed after I saw the original, including: Toggle for head bob, toggle for look, and full grab of the character (which looks hilarious, but makes it much much easier to move them to the general position you want). The other stuff I'll work on adding in, and should have another update for all this in a few days probably!

I think this update is really good although I personally think it needs some qol options for things. Grabbing needs some sort of way to move the entire root point of a character so you do not need to adjust them after moving. Moving their limbs while grabbing seems to be locked to rotations only and you have to walk in order to move some parts. I really enjoy the new room but I think it needs to be a much much bigger area like a cube of a massive size that seems to stretch very far with no floor to fall off of for example and being able to change the cube you're inside to be any color (black white etc) The lights you can move around are very excellent so far and I hope they gain some features over time or the ability to hide their auras. The new head bobbing is great but it should probably also be able to be toggled on and off. The characters looking at the player when they move I feel also should be able to be toggled as it can cause a sort of feedback loop when you are attempting to adjust their poses. I love the new ability to move tails and that they are not stiff in general now. That helps the characters feel a bit higher quality by a large amount. The show room itself was very easy to get to and I really did appreciate it's simplicity for being able to pose characters and move them around. That part was fun and it felt extremely sandboxy which is great for these sort of games when it comes to creative posing stuff. I did notice clothing doesn't quite fit on all characters but I rig and model myself so I can understand why they won't just fit every character like that without some adjustments. The posing is a bit hard still though since the player's hands and (head?) can block the characters and be blocked by them ( I have to teleport to get my hand from being locked in a character sometimes. I think the character's hand should have absolute movement control rather than being restricted as it feels really disorienting ) The way IK is working now though I definitely feel a massive improvement. I did notice the characters will look around more and not just stare off when you get far enough which was nice. Overall I did notice some characters have some different skins in stuff which makes me a bit excited for future updates. Overall I give this update a pretty good rating because it did add quite a lot of functionality and is showing the potential this game has to grow. tl;dr: Great new ik functions Great lighting options Excellent new tail rigs Show room needs to be much more massive and not have any spots to fall from (because there is no menu teleport function) and be closed off on all sides with an inverted cube Characters seem more alive and game has big potential
