RWBY Combo Release Oculus Hotfix (Patreon)

Special Thanks to Anbu, the beta tester on QA for this release.
Were still working on a more intuitive camera system, but for now this should help quite a bit. The biggest challenge here is position tracking. What we're trying to do is make the experience more "alive" and immersive than a video. If you've watched a VR video and leaned to the side trying to get a better look at something or wanted to try that, you have a good idea of the drawbacks and disappointment of not being able to do so.
When using a live VR scene, usually there is a lot of wiggle room on your starting position. The goal there being to put things in the players reach, so regardless of where they start, they all eventually move to the place they should be. It works with every other release type of ours just fine. With the POV though it's just the opposite. We want everyone to start in the same spot regardless of calibration or position in real space and then from there you can tilt as you like or stay where the action is. It's a interesting and difficult problem to solve, but once it is solved you'll be able to experience a level of immersion not possible or even attempted in other H content.
*Note on the Vive: The Vive camera is giving us some inconsistent behavior issues, so we're still working on narrowing those down. Now that we have the oculus mostly settled in though we can return attention to the Vive.
TL;DR
- Gaze menu reference dot working
- Animation Improvements for changing girls
- Camera controls added
