I just used the steam frame for pretty much a whole day straight. First impressions: - The lightest headset I've ever tried - FOV is massive - Screens are a little behind the quest pro with colors (to be expected, but that's okay) - I can't wear glasses in it (lenses are super close to eyes)

Are you kidding me, I'm on vacation! My frame is coming tomorrow. I dont know if this is the best luck or the worst lol.

Modern @modernballoonie.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Yeah the Resonite devs really need a steam frame.

Modern @modernballoonie.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

So, I'm going to be going on vacation for a bit, just to let people know.

I made a mod for @resonite.com that makes full body tracker calibration much easier. github.com/ModernBalloo...

Collections exist in @resonite.com now, and... Well, I just had to do this.

Balloon chipori talons, but they somehow got bigger.

I hate that I'm mandating VRCFury use with an avatar modification pack I'm going to release soon, but I have no choice. Since VRChat doesn't support native face tracking, most of the parameter list is taken up by that alone, and the features I wanted to add to it, it's become impossible to do-

Modern @modernballoonie.bsky.social · 23/08/2026

I had to do some crazy stuff to get the physics on this piece of clothing to act right with the inflation stuff, I'm honestly really proud of this. Balloon chipori almost done! For real this time.

Honestly there's something that's been bothering me, I love Resonite but there are some issues, particularly with their dynamic bone implementation that I've been finding harder and harder to work around. Mostly not being able to animate them properly because they reset and look stiff.

I have been making this water shader work way better, it's way more responsive plus, I added some sounds from @runeyco.bsky.social and it goes along with the effect quite well! I worked on this for 6 hours yesterday, but i'm definitely including this with the balloon chipori.

How my day went when working on the balloon chipori today.

I guess I'm in an official resonite post now.

I've been making a cool detailed squeak rubbing sound system for the balloonie chipori, Really this is based off of a thing I made a while back, but now it's better! Sounds were made by SangriaSnake.

I'm sleep deprived, so... I made bouncy buttons. It's a bit goofy! (also updated avatar world to have one more avatar)

Modern @modernballoonie.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

New public avatar! I got permission to make a public version of my Balloonie Chipori edit, Not available for purchase yet, but it will be when I'm done. Things will be added and tweaked here and there, but feel free to check out the work in progress! vrchat.com/home/avatar/...

I just went to the dentist and came back home, had a tooth filling with anaesthetic and I immediately wanted to see if my face tracking would pick up my lopsided face, It did and it's really funny.

Modern @modernballoonie.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

I should not be contemplating whether to get the steam frame when it releases or not at 6 am, yet here I am.

Modern @modernballoonie.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Well, I've been doing it anyway!

Modern @modernballoonie.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

So I got the updated rikkor, made it a balloon of course.

This is what happens to VR keyboards when you've been using VR almost every day for 5 years.

So I'm really wanting to release more avatar things but geez I wish my motivation was there. These past few days I've been drawing blanks, just doing insignificant little pieces of avatar work, even though I want to release things, it's like I have a mental block or something.

Modern @modernballoonie.bsky.social · 24/06/2026

So, I guess i'm remaking my balloonie novabeast modification. WIP. New shapes, new animator, new rig, new everything. Redone from scratch. I still gotta do a lot of things though. This one has a more monobutt-y aesthetic. Expect to see an actual release of this one >////>

Modern @modernballoonie.bsky.social · 20/06/2026

More features for the fun Resonite body collision thing! Your hands can bounce off the balloon now! The good thing about this, is that you can make different spatial variables have different bounce properties. The bounciness speed and damping can be modified by the type of volume you touch.

This yellow dog man needs a steam frame!

Cool balloon body "collision" tech in Resonite using Spatial Variables! (Also, bug balloon.) I've been wanting to show off more of my cool experiments.

Modern @modernballoonie.bsky.social · 14/06/2026

I'm working on getting my Balloonie Chipori I modified released, and like, i'm going through the avatar and since it was my testing avatar it has a ton of features I never finished and wow it's... archaic by my standards nowadays. The avatar is still good, but the animator... needs work. Well,-

New thing, something a bit different! I made a cool VR overlay thing for VRChat that can be used with WayVR and XSOverlay! This will appear when you open up your overlay! It's also FREE! jinxxy.com/ModernBalloo...

Been making some cool stuff for the bird. Some wide blendshapes as well. Still work in progress.

I've been improving the water liquid shader's bubbles to use triplanar mapping, so the bubble direction doesn't depend on how your UV map is. The bubbles will always go up. Also, sloshy dergodal.
