Hi friends,

thanks for your patience - we know this one took a little longer than usual.

There are mainly two reasons for that. First, we hit a dead end with a feature idea we were working on. Unfortunately, after weeks of development, we just couldn’t make it work. It’s frustrating, but it’s also a normal part of the development process. Shit happens.

The second reason was the incident with Patreon. For those who didn’t experience it first-hand: they booted us from their platform literally overnight, without any questions or prior warning. After a few messages back and forth, we were finally able to convince them that neither our page nor our product violates their community guidelines, so they fully restored our account.

Enough with the negatives — we still managed to put together something worth downloading and installing!

For the full list of changes, check out the end of this post. But first, let’s dive into some of the most exciting updates:

Want to give your Hotties a fresh, more stylized look? Check out the new “Toon Shading” option under Main > Settings in the Main Menu. It gives skin and hair a softer, more comic-inspired vibe - a fun alternative to the realistic shading you’re used to. Perfect if you’re in the mood for something a little different or want your Hotties to stand out even more.

There’s also new content for your female Hottie creations: 5 new hairstyles, 5 new clothing pieces, and 4 new skins! 

Have fun with it, and don’t forget to share your Hotties in the HottieCard channels of our Discord for the PC version :)

We’ve also made some significant improvements in important areas: startup is faster, memory usage is lower, and hair shading looks better too!

Additionally, some users weren’t fans of the Dynamic Resolution feature, which adjusts performance by lowering resolution when getting very close to a Hottie — so we’ve made it optional now.

We hope you enjoy all the new upgrades!

Take care,
VR HOT
