Soft Body Suite v2.0.0: one plugin

Wobble, Jell-o and Squish Studio are now one plugin with one window. The stages hand their result to each other in the same frame, and your clothes are fitted once, at the very end, to the body you actually see.

What's new

  • One window with Mesh & Region, Weight painting, Colliders, Wobble, Jell-o, Squish, Clothes, Performance and Presets. Click a title to fold a section open or shut; the four stage sections have their own on/off tick.
  • Clothes stay on: garments ride exactly the same movement as the body, and take their resting fit from the body without the wobble swing, so turning stages on and off mid-motion no longer bakes a clip in.
  • One preset now holds every stage. Auto-load it by the model's file name, or by any text the model name includes. Two small windows let you rename/load/delete presets and edit/switch/delete auto-load rules.
  • Substeps, half-rate, smooth blend and async physics can be set for each stage.
  • The log is quieter: the Wobble diagnostics line only prints while F10 is on.

Installer

  • Looks for VNyan by itself (an open VNyan, VNyan's own log, Steam, the itch app) and asks you to confirm.
  • If it can't find it, or you say no, it asks you to open your VNyan folder (the one with VNyan.exe inside). VNyan has no installer of its own, so it can live anywhere.
  • Moves the old Squish / Wobble / Jello Studio folders to RetiredPlugins (moved, never deleted).
  • Only asks for admin rights if your VNyan folder is write-protected.

Upgrading from v1

  • Run install.bat and say yes to moving the old studios. VNyan loads every folder in Items\Assemblies, so leaving them would move the body twice.
  • Your regions, colliders and slider values are brought over automatically the first time the suite starts (see softbodysuite.migration.log). The old settings files aren't touched.
  • Presets saved in the old Jello Studio aren't carried over, so save them again in the suite.
  • SoftBody Studio isn't part of the suite. It's still available in v1.2.0; its source is in legacy/.

Install

Download VNyan-SoftBody-Suite-v2.0.0.zip, unzip it, close VNyan and double-click install.bat. Manual steps are in INSTALL.md.
