Improved UI Layout
More Supported Inputs and Output
Output Modifiers
Editor Improvements



We decided earlier this year to take some time and try to overall improve the UI to make it more user friendly and clean.

1.Several redundant menu items have been removed or combined.
2.Input sections now are collapsible
3.Settings have their own window
4.A FPS monitor has been added to top right
5.The Output Modifiers panel has been added (more below)
6.Save and Load are now present on the main screen, and are no longer behind the settings cog reducing the number of clicks necessary to load and save files.
7.The connections (input devices and output devices) are now both on the bottom of the screen reducing wasted space
8.Bridgit no longer gets pixelated when VBridger is enlarged



We created a new panel for modifiers (including the old Delay function) so we could add more modifiers. There are now three modifiers that can be toggled.
1. Delay - Delays the parameter value by a number of ms.
2. Smooth - attempts to smooth out the new value with the old value
3. Steps - Stepped Values. Limits the value of parameters to fixed values at fixed thresholds. See more in our documentation here https://github.com/PiPuProductions/VBridger-Documentation/wiki/2.-VBridger-Base-Version#steps

We added two webcam trackers.
1. The VTS Nvidia Tracker - (makes use of the VTubeStudio Nvidia Broadcast Tracker DLC)
2. The Mediapipe Tracker
We added audio input.
Basic Volume as well as OVR Audio Visemes, mouth shapes associated with different mouth sounds. The microphone must be specified in the settings if it doesn't work by default.

We added support to send parameters over the VMC Protocol which is commonly used for 3D Vtubing software. We have tested with both VNyan, Warudo, Vseeface* and OBSKUR.
*VSeeface doesn't allow isolated VMC inputs, so you will be stuck in T-pose if you try to use VMC with it. The other programs allow you to only use VMC for isolated parts of the model, which allows VBridger to mix with body VMC solutions

- Reset to default removed
- Toggle face removed and set to on
- Toggle autoreconnection removed and set to on
- Removed start sending and combined with connect
- Added calibration button, will zero out your resting face blendshapes to 0. On webcam also sets position and rotation.
- Added reset calibration to settings to clear them.
- Added camera selection to settings
- Added microphone selection to settings
- added toggle for whether face detection is forwarded to VTS
- FaceDetected added as a parameter



- The Editor has recieved many quality of life improvements:
- All Parameters can now be collapsed.
- A Parameter can be selected by clicking on it
- All Parameters can be rearranged by dragging the gray tab on the left and dropping
- A SearchBar has been added at the top to find specific parameters
- Every Parameter can now be duplicated by hitting the copy button
- Long equations will now wrap and add a new line
- Output Parameters can now be referenced in equations
- A Vector Toggle has been added in order to make VMC Vectors.

1. if('condition',true,false) - a traditional if. supports nesting and complex conditions
2. clamp(value,low,high) - clamps a value to a range
3. approx(x,y,delta)- finds if x and y are approximatly within delta of each other. returns 1 if true and 0 if false
4. lerp(x,y,t) - linear interpolation between x and y using t

- Fixed a bug stopping VBridger connecting to VTS on other PCs on a local network
- Fixed a bug that slowed down the initial connection to VTS
- Fixed several translation issues
- Fixed a delay rounding error
- Output Parameters now set their default value to start
- fixed a bug that stopped being able to connect to vts if the computer was named with certain unicode characters


Finally, please welcome the new improved Bridgit!

Thank you to everyone who's been giving Celbugs a whirl this holiday season! It means a lot to see people playing - and hopefully having a good time with - the game. I've taken the opportunity to polish things up a bit.

• UI icons have been updated with the intent of being more consistent and clearer at lower resolutions.
  
  • This affects the navigation buttons on Celbug Island and in Bug Battles, as well as the Favourite button
• Dialogue boxes now contain the name, and a picture of, the character speaking where appropriate.

• In the Inventory, the Vurdice Leaf would be displayed when no item was selected instead of the intended graphic
  
• At some aspect ratios, UI buttons were unintentionally clickable while dialogue boxes were onscreen

Don’t miss out on this great deal!

With this update, you can adjust the power of the screen tint effects in the settings menu. The base power of the damage screen tint effect is now relative to the damage taken, so there is no anoying flashing anymore when taking little poison damage.

The last perk (Damage Booster) is really weak compared to the other perks and was only meant (and requested) as an extra when all the other perks are unlocked already. But somehow, almost every new player unlocks them first. Not anymore! With this update, the damage booster perk are now hidden until all the others perks are unlocked.
