@radiatoryang.bsky.social Unity's standard ragdoll wizard does not have a penis bone field so the penis cannot flap around; also the model I am using doesn't have a penis. I feel like you're the only person I can report this to.

Something to read: Cornerstone by Michael Berto / @pawsmenu.info. One the best things I read last year. Exactly my favourite kind of magical, strange, sci-fi-ish, characterful, perfect length novella. I loved it. (You can find this on "Big River Website" as well.) pawsmenu.itch.io/cornerstone

Are water splashes really all that important? Ran a class discussion featuring @pippinbarr.bsky.social's always cool "v r 3" water museum recently and started thinking about the cottage industry of videos angrily comparing "little details" and "immersion" across games. www.patf.io/this-is-not-...
