Hello! Hey! Hi ! We've got some good news today !

Maid Outfit is out NOW!

I'm glad to announce the release of the Maid Outfit ! It's optimized, cute as heck, in short, I love it. It is probably the outfit that requested the most time and effort out of all of them due to the complexity of balancing detail and optimization, and I think we've achieved a fair balance with this one, so feel free to check it out at https://kokou.gumroad.com/l/maiduwu !

Next Outfit ? Femboy Outfit !

This is no secret, during our last vote most of you voted for the Techwear Outfit, but a challenger quickly grew, attempting to take its #1 spot, that was the Femboy Outfit ! It is still being designed as we speak, to be frank I want it to look unique and the typical Femboy attire closely ressembles clothing I've already released, so I'm really trying to find a way to make it separate enough to not feel like I'm scamming people. Anywho, do expect to see that next, hopefully before the end of the month, no promises !

Future Updates

I've been somewhat slower this past month, of course I had to deal with some health issues but it doesn't explain this amount of slow, that's because I've been trying to improve a few things, so let's take a look !

UV Improvements!

For a bit now, I've been receiving a good amount of honestly more than fair criticism regarding the UV on Renou and Denny, and let's be honest, I'm absolute dogwater with UVs, I can only agree with those criticisms. I've been working on making a new UV Map that will hopefully be easier to work with. It is still WIP, and I'm honestly more than open to any kind of tips, tricks, and criticism from anybody.

Face Tracking Improvements
Some time ago, I made a Face Tracking Addon for Renou, which has been fairly well received. Not long after release I acquired a Quest Pro of my own because I felt wrong not being able to test it myself. In that time I've released a few updates that have improved a few things and fixed a few issues with clipping and uncanniness. On the side I've also been playing with Face Tracking much more often to try and refine it, and see what I liked and disliked. One of those things that I think really needs an update is the mouth expressivity, it feels really limited, which is sad for such a cartoony fellow. Here are a few WIPs comparisons of the face tracking before and after, as you can see a few things have been reworked and the range of motion has been greatly improved. There are still a lot of issues with clipping and uncanniness mind you, and this will probably remain in the works for a while until I think it's good enough to release.

If you have any criticism once again, I am an absolute taker, so feel free to check out our Discord and let me know there!

(Also I have seen the latest post from VRChat about Native Face Tracking, and do know I will be looking into it whenever it does release, but for now it feels like this is fairly far away !)
