SVD v7 Release, UI & BDSM Rework, Doggystyle added <33 !!! (Patreon)

It's finally time for another update to SVD, Version 7 is here, version 7 is now! <3

First off I want to talk about the project and patreon overall so here's a direct message to my supporters.

Read about all the new additions to the game and what's to come further below!

Huge thanks to all of my incredible supporters! Even when updates are taking months to complete you guys have been motivating and supporting me through all of it. Reading your comments is boosting my productivity like nothing else. This project wouldn't be possible without your input. These last two years of development have been quite a journey. This project is growing into something that might be able to keep up with some of the best adult games out there someday. It has been rough at times to be honest. The project isn't financially viable and I have to go out of pocket to keep development time consistent. If I calculate the hours I put into the project and what came in financially I'm looking at an hourly pay of roughly 4$ (ouch). I was never in it for the money though, this project is more about creating something I couldn't find anywhere and wanted to have for myself.

And then came you guys, now I'm also doing it for all of you :)

That being said, I do see a possibility to scale the project up. I'm dedicated to put in more time and effort if the support is there. For this I'll have to invest some more time into creating videos and content for socials.
I refrained from this for a while and update videos only now and then since I rather spend my time developing features for you guys. Realistically I think the project has the brightest future if I can output a somewhat steady stream of videos though and the game is slowly becoming good enough for it!
If we get enough people on board it might even cover me financially full time one day. That would mean I'd spend about 5-6 times as much on developing SVD than I currently can. Imagine the progress we'd see. (lets not get ahead of ourselves lol)
Maybe I earn your support and others for some time to come! I hope I do. In the meantime I'm also thinking about building a community discord, I'd love to get more input from you guys and share some WIP stuff more easily. I have to see how time consuming this would be but please let me know if this interests you!

INSTALLATION:

If you're new to VAM and SVD check out this post to get started: How to Install SVD

You can find the newest update in this Mega Folder or below! The folder also includes instruction images, showing you how to install updates!

You might be prompted about plugin usage, you should generally allow all plugins in order to use all features of SVD. The scene to load is called: SuperVAMDeepthroat_v8

Follow me on Twitter/ X for more content: https://www.twitter.com/StayBlocky_Art

Loading times have increased even further unfortunately. I'll have to address this at some point in the future. Make sure VAM runs on a SSD drive and that you have about 12-15gb of RAM available for it, still takes minutes though lol.

Here are my recommended VAM settings to have if you're on lower spec hardware or you're playing in VR:

So, whith that being said lets dive into the changes for Version 7!

Patch Notes:

Main Highlights:

NEW POSE, BDSM Doggystyle! - BDSM doggystyle is the newest pose added to SVD. Fuck her from the back while her hands are cuffed. Choke her, slap her, make her cum! We even got some pussy juices for this one. This was a fun one to animate and will be great to expand in the future. (Should I finish the pass out animation first?)

POSE REWORK, BDSM! - BDSM has gotten an animation rework! It now features face and tit slapping from left and right each. You can do these in quick succession too now which is a lot of fun. Use the keybinds for this! It also features 3 breast fondle animations. Dildo animations are still in the rework phase and will have to be added back in later.

UI REWORK! - The UI has gotten a complete overhaul thanks to the amazing CanvasButton plugin by ChenRong! Now we finally have traditional 2D UI improving the user experience a ton in both desktop and VR! Drop ChenRong 5 stars on the hub if you can! This rework also includes a big technical overhaul behind the scenes, leveraging state machines, making future updates much easier to develope.

NEW CHARACTER! Eve from Stellar Blade is joining SVD. The character wasn't planned but JackyCracky uploaded an awesome look for her that I adjusted and integrated into SVD for version 7 rather quickly :)

Other Changes:

Lighting Adjustments - Lighting has been adjusted once more. The overall tone, contrast and clarity should be improved. Characters and environments benefit from this change (this is subjective obviously let me know what you think). Make sure to check out all light settings for each pose in the settings tab.

Camera Angles - You can now open a camera menu and select from different angles for an easy way to focus on the action.

Smile slider - There's now a slider for the characters smile!

Appearances - All characters have gotten some polish and general improvements to their quality.

Customization & Clothing tab - You can now view all clothing options with names in the customization menu!

Settings - You now have a slow motion slider and a freeze motion button, try them out! You can now disable the general keybindings in the settings. Animation trigger keybindings can't be turned off.

The male visibility now has a mask option!

General improvements - There have been tons of general improvements to the game that would make this list way too long. You can now go back and forth between hard and soft choke in missionary for example! Explore the scene for more!

Please Note / Known Issues: 

The Sitting and Standing BJ Poses did not yet get the new UI treatment, they are using the old 3D interface and will be upgraded with v8!
The hide UI feature still has a couple issues, some of the buttons are reactivated even though they should be hidden. Definitely annyoing especially in VR.
POV often throws you in a reverse view, looking through the male character.

Hopefully these issues can be sorted out with a quickfix version in the following weeks.

The game supports stroker sex robots through the ToySerialController plugin by Blazedust. I am fortunate enough that a fan of the game actually send me an OSR2+ so I'm trying to integrate it further into SVD over time <3 The absolute BIGGEST thanks to https://www.patreon.com/TidyPrints if you have questions regarding stroker robots to get on the next level support and shoot him a message :)
Right now the game features a serial settings menu with a couple sliders you have to manually adjust for each pose. I want these to adapt to poses dynamically so all poses create pleasing strokes with future updates. Use this at your own risks, VAM is tricky with serial toys and can hurt your dick lol!

That's all for now, as always leave me your feedback below, on twitter, per DM or anywhere really. Love to hear it and hope you enjoy!
