November Update - Info & Instructions

Hey peeps,

Nov build has been tested for a while now in Discord and a lot of major bugs have been ironed. The experience should be the most user friendly yet!

The UI overhaul for Desktop players (docking and such) will be ported in some manner to VR players at some point. I'm currently VR-less as the HP Reverb G2 I have on order is hit with delay after delay, sorry to VR peeps who have experienced any issues with later builds, I feel like VR support is slowly deteriorating the longer I don't have a VR headset, but I'll be polishing VR UX asap! VR players should still benefit hugely from the Character Manager system, which I added some more small updates to since the last post.

A lot of user feedback included the request to have confirmation dialogs for destructive actions, so I've added a confirm system to Saving, Loading, Deleting from the Character Save slot. Hopefully no one has overwritten or deleted a character by accident, but now it should be harder to do!

Another suggestion was to allow spawning a saved girl directly from the Save Slot, so for supporters who have the ability to spawn multiple characters, this can now be done without spawning a blank character and then loading a saved character onto her.

There's a new experimental (and hopefully unobtrusive) Information Bar at the bottom of the Character Manager, which will tell you about saves and loads, if a spawn failed due to a collision detection, and if you try and spawn a character without the necessary support tier. If it seems useful I'll probably add more things to it, so it may give some useful information or tips when the player does various things.

I've updated the User Manual here:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SFKCayfjLuTpJc8HIY96RO1pfBjz6jbjx9g4SBCnkPY/edit?usp=sharing

I hope some answers can be found for peeps who find the user experience a lil tricky, it is something I'm trying to improve in every iteration! I know it's severely lacking in some areas.

The Core Build link, DLC link, & Codes for each tier will be posted up after this post for the November update! I hope peeps enjoy.

Naughty Sandbox is going to space! November Update

Hey peeps.

Been working silently on some big updates for a release end of November. First, have had a few suggestions on UI improvements and some complaints about the current state of UIs in Naughty Sandbox sooooo I thought it was time for an overhaul.

First complaint / suggestion was that in spawning multiple characters, the character creator UIs cluttered the scene as one UI panel was spawned for each character. From the Nov release of Naughty Sandbox onwards, all character creation UIs will be consolidated into the new Character Manager.

The Character Manager is essentially just a Character Creator UI with tabs on top, and characters spawned into the scene will appear in those tabs. If players have named their character, her first name will appear on the tab. Selecting those tabs will, as you probably guessed, switch the Character Creator UI to edit that girl. I hope this is a relatively seamless way to create multiple characters at once.

The Character Manager also includes the ability to despawn girls. New girls are spawned from the + button on the top left, and spawned girls will appear in front of you now, rather than to the side of the previous character. Girls are despawned by the x button on their tab.

For Desktop players, most of the UI elements are now docked onto the screen rather than floating in 3D space. The floating UIs are remnants of the VR UI system, and were never really great for Desktop use, so hopefully the new UI overhaul rectifies that nicely. Each user interface panel can be moved, resized, and minimized.

The new environment for November will be an absolutely sick space station setting! This 3rd party env was funded by you guys, so thanks so much for the opportunity to have so much awesome art from other devs included in Naughty Sandbox.

I've done some relighting, optimization, sound design and a few special effects to the environment to hopefully give it some very space-tastic presence, as I want it to be as immersive as possible for both Desktop and VR players.

Among some general bug fixing (and no doubt creating more bugs by accident ;-;) there are a few other minor features in the upcoming build:

Character Waist size is now adjustable, along with Hips width and Arms thickness, for more control over character proportions.

Halloween Update: Changelog & Info!

New Environment & Object Spawning!

Hey peeps,

Been working on some additional features to make things a bit more flexible.

Check out a clip on my Twitter for some very NSFW shenanigans in the new enviro!

https://twitter.com/NaughtySandbox/status/1315970048813662208?s=20

The store thing I talked about before will be in builds from now on and will be the way to spawn machines, equipment and accessories into the world. Everything's free, and in-game money won't be a part of the game for now until I work a cool way of implementing money as a reward or something.

Some items when spawned in will be spawned in product boxes, which can be unboxed by scoring a line in the tape.

Equipment like the Rodeo Machine & Sex Saddle can now also be moved around the scene and rotated - interact with them in the same way as you would grab anything else - and there's currently no limit to the number of things that can be spawned into the world.

Also, working on a new 3rd party environment which will be released as a new DLC map for Uncensored Lewdies: a large medieval style house with 3 floors and some relaxing sound design.

Once there's more stuff available in Naughty Sandbox, hopefully larger environments like this will be cool to populate with characters and various lewd goings on!

Changelog & Info for New Build!

1 day late with this build soz! Peeps have been testing this build on Disco for past couple days, and I think I've got most of the major issues ironed out.

Apologies up front cos the new maps included here are not as fleshed out as they could be, need to do sound design for the Beach Island map and some general polishing. I'm gonna be updating these maps with more unique themed equipment and lewdy stuff in the next couple months, so each map will have something actually erotic to offer rather than just being a backdrop.

These maps are my first test of a DLC system for Naughty Sandbox. To install the maps to your game, just place the extracted DLC folders into the Plugins folder of Naughty Sandbox. As an example:

NSUDEVR/Plugins/SubwayPack/

Here's a video clip demonstrating this as well:

https://www.redgifs.com/watch/youngwavygoa

Both of the DLC maps, Beach Island & Subway, are for supporters of $4 and above for now. As more maps are added in the future, I'll probably make the older ones available to everyone.

On game load, if the DLC is detected, the new Levels tab will display the maps and clicking them will teleport you there. If the DLC isn't detected (for peeps who may have put it in the wrong place or don't have access to it) the DLC maps will be displayed with a padlock, and are un-clickable. In the Levels tab, click and hold on a level to open it. I felt that a click and hold was a little smoother than an additional confirmation box, to make sure that the player hasn't mis-clicked.

The character creator / general updates in this build are available to everyone! - Here's a comprehensive list of new character creator options which I outlined in some older posts, but will do here in a changelog type format for peeps who just fucking can't get enough of changelogs!!

• Jaw Hardness / Softness slider
• Brow Position & Scale sliders with individual axis control
• 3 Nose Shape Morphs & morph strength slider
• 6 Lip Shape Morphs & morph strength slider
• Top and bottom lip size sliders
• Calves Size sliders with individual axis control
• Improved Leg Thickness system
• Overhauled Makeup System
• New Brow Makeup panel
• Individually selectable Brow, Eye, Blush & Lip makeup styles
• A total of 17 new makeup styles for various parts of the face
• New selectable eyeball types
• First look at the new Arousal System
• 5 breathing / vocalization profiles from 3 voice actresses!
• A Field of View slider for Desktop players

There are also some known issues to mention:

• The Expression selector is broken for now, I didn't realize that the Arousal system inteferes with the Expressions selector - will fix in a build aimed at later in the month
• There's no environment sound on the Beach Island map

Please tell me what other issues you find on this build, will be rolling out smaller updates and other bits of content throughout the month!

New peeps joining to check out Naughty Sandbox, thanks for your interest and please stick around even if the content looks lacking right now, I'm slowly getting to a dev stage where many of the systems are in place and I can soon start taking a content driven approach to add in more variety and gameplay.

Character Creator: New Features + Build News

Hey lewd comrades,

Build is coming along nicely, I've been making some additions to the character creator to extend the range of face types possible. I felt like the makeup system was severely limited before, and I kinda messed up by programming it to be more rigid than it should have been. So I overhauled it to make it possible to individually select Eye Shadow, Blusher, Lips, and also added a new Brows option.

In the release, there is a few different options to select from for each, but more importantly it's super easy for me to add more makeup types in now, so in improving the werkflow for adding new styles, I'll probably throw in several new ones for each new release. Also considering player-importable makeup masks but gotta think of the best way to do this.

I'll also be adding in makeup designed after the most popular female game charas, for people to make characters eventually looking close to their fave vidya babes, for example, the classic D.Va cheek accents.

Make makeup reqs on the Disco and I'll prob add them!

Also along with general proportions of facial components, there is a new option for Noses and Lip shapes, which I'll probably extend to Ears, Eyes, etc. Players can choose their lip or nose type from a drop down menu, and change the strength of that morph to blend it in. Top and bottom lips can now also be controlled woop woop.

Additionally, different eyeballs can now be selected. There's a surprisingly small amount of variation among human eyeballs sadly, so mostly these eyeballs will be fantasy eyes for use with cosplay or fantasy charactes. The header pic is an example of one of these where she has Android eyes, and more will be revealed in October where I plan to do a Halloween themed content release. Eyeballs can ofc be changed individually for each eye, because I'm a fan of that type of shit.

There is a new Jaw Strength slider, which allows peeps to make the jawline sharper or softer, this compliments the other Jaw Proportion controls quite well IMO. Allows a bit more fine tuning to the overall face shape.

There is also a calves size section in the body proportions, calves can be scaled on all 3 axis individually. The header pic is an example of the thick calves that are now possible, for peeps who have the Extend Slider Ranges cheat enabled as talked about in one of the prev posts, they can be pushed even thicker to create chara with a bit more fantastical proportions.

I've begun package tests and will be starting internal tests on Discord today or tomorrow! If all goes well the next build release will be here by the end of Sept, the build is already relatively stable and I can't imagine there will be 4 days worth of problems to fix, but ya know.

Peace out lewders and come join the Discord if you're not there already.

Plans for September! >:)

I'm aiming for a build release this month, I'm trying out something I've not done before (environments as separate add-ons - more at the end) and I don't know how smoothly it will go so bear with me. There will be a few key new things in the build, primarily the near-final voice profiles & erotic vocalization system.

I've been working on this for a while and think it's finally getting to a good place, and it's what I envisioned for the project from quite early on. The core concept is that characters' behavior (breathing, body language, vocalizations etc) should be driven by "how they're feeling". The most important of those driver params for an ero game is probably horniness / arousal / pleasure, and the most important driven results are probably vocalization & facial expressions.

To that end I've been working with VA's to build a dynamic system of lewd girl noises. Using over 100 individual recordings of gasps, moans, screams of varying intensity, characters' breathing & facial expressions will change depending on how aroused they are / how much pleasure they're feeling.

There is a NSFW video clip on redgifs.com & on my Twitter of a demonstration of this system.

https://www.redgifs.com/watch/greedywellwornhyena

https://twitter.com/NaughtySandbox/status/1304102443794477056?s=20

I've tried to make this system look & feel as natural as possible, while being fully dynamic. The erotic vocal samples are selected semi-randomly so the system should rarely play the same sample twice in a short period of time, and vocal samples are organized into 6 levels of arousal, so the amount of pleasure she's feeling should be easy for a player to determine even with no UI elements to tell you.

In the next build there will be 5 "characters" (Profiles) to choose from for the vocalizations, from 3 different VA's so far. In total there are over 700 vocal samples, with each Profile having around 150 samples. This took a while to build and erotic vocal samples is obviously something I can't do myself, hehe, so it was also something of an expensive endeavour. I hope it will be well worth it, and I'll be improving the system and adding more profiles over time.

New builds will also contain a bonus feature (undecided of which support tier yet) which allows players to unlock slider ranges in the Character Creator. A checkbox can be unlocked which will extend every slider by double its initial range. Obviously, this will allow some real fucked up grills to be created, but it's been requested by more than a few people and from a dev perspective it actually is helpful as a debugging tool to test ranges, so I figured I'd offer it if people would like to play with less limits.

When unlocked, sliders will show the extended part in a darker tone, to make it clear what the original boundaries were.

Speaking of Character Creator, I've added a new Brow section since I realized it was sorely missing. Brows vary a ton among people so it should help create a bit more variety in the created characters now. Brows can be moved on all axis, and rotated and scaled too, to create some different shaped eye brows and change the prominence of the brow itself.

The keen eyed among u peeps will have noticed the header images and video clip contain a lush little beach type environment. This, along with the Subway car in the previous post, is a planned new selectable environment for certain undecided Patreon tiers, but they will be distributed as packs separate from the main game.

I'm trying to learn how to package and distro DLC packs since it's an awesome way to divide content, keep the package size of the main game lower, and eventually do bundles and sales and promo etc.

I haven't got any experience in this so there may be some teething problems, but if all goes well the Sept builds should contain these two shiny new enviros.

As a side note, I'm sure everyone's super pumped about the RTX 3000 series announcement. I've added raytracing to my to-research list as a potential graphical option for people with RTX!

Life Stuff + Upcoming Environment

Hello glorious lewders,

Realize it's been a while since the last post so I thought I'd make an update with something I'm working on for the next build.

I grabbed a 3rd party cinematic NYC subway environment and I'm doing some optimization, relighting, effects and sound design to make it appear as if you're on an actual moving subway car.

I think it's immersive AF right now, even on desktop mode, and should be a nice selectable enviro for Naughty Sandbox. The environment may be exclusive or timed-exclusive to certain supporter tiers but I haven't decided yet.

Since the idea is for players to be able to spawn in objects and equipment for use on the girl, I think this will make for a fun immersive playground for lewd shenans to go down. In VR, it should be a seriously cool environment to behold, with presense through the roof.

I've been toying with the idea of being able to spawn in non-lewd NPCs for environments like this, but I haven't quite figured a good way of doing it, and how it would fit in with the performance budget for VR. But being able to, in the future, create voyeuristic on-lookers is deffo on my mind.

Sorry for the text wall this time! Will hopefully have some nice HR visuals to show soon.

Thanks!!!

Just a lil update here,

I'm planning for Naughty Sandbox updates to start becoming more content-driven soon.

Currently there's some usable stuff around in different levels but I want all the available equipment and accessories to be available in all the levels.

To that end I've started concepting a UI which will show all of Naughty Sandbox's items, and the idea is that you can use it to spawn items into the world.

The items are sortable by date added to Naughty Sandbox, and can be filtered by type. This won't be that useful for now, but when more and more items are added to the game, it will hopefully be a nice way of quickly finding what you want to spawn.

Since I eventually want some system of purchasing and in-game currency, I've designed the system as if it's an in-game store, but I doubt there will be any sort of in-game economy any time soon (since that requires a lot of balancing and tieing it to some reward system) so I'll probably remove the money & purchasing aspect of the UI for the initial release.

Naughty Sandbox 09H - Photograhpy & Accessories Update

Hey peeps, hoping this build is stable enough for a public release! Discord peeps have been testing it for the past few days and have helped iron out a lot of issues!

Main new features are an accessories mode and a functioning digital camera. All tiers & free players have access to the camera, but the Accessories Tab - where customizing placed accessories is possible - is unlocked for $4 and up tiers.

All piccies in this post are taken with the in-game camera! Photos are stored in NSUDEVR\Photos of the game directory and are in the format:

Level_yy_mm_dd_hh_mm_ss_splitsecond.png

Changes since the last build -

• 1 new breathing type
• Accessory placement & customization
• Plastic Bunny Ears
• Two types of sunglasses
• Rabbit Mask
• 3 types of bow
• Censor is now toggled on the Settings Panel and not the Character Customization panel
• Desktop users can rotate objects when they're in Drop mode
• Working digital camera with autofocus
• Fixed character physics bug where breasts and ass could spawn stuck in the wall lol
• Fixed Fatal Error on startup for some VR users

Known issues -

• Digital camera can cause hitches in VR, especially when taking photos
• Echo from the Toilet map are still applied when switching from the Toilet to another map
• Vive Cosmos doesn't seem to be compatible with UnrealEngine still - UE4 bug
• Cross input between the Trackpad & Thumbstick can occur on Index - SteamVR bug

Also, this isn't directly related to this build update, but I've begun putting together a User Manual for Naughty Sandbox here:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SFKCayfjLuTpJc8HIY96RO1pfBjz6jbjx9g4SBCnkPY/edit?usp=sharing

The information here should always be relevant to the latest build, and the idea is for it to eventually be a comprehensive guide to Naughty Sandbox.

For PATREON & SUBSCRIBESTAR supporters / potential supporters - in the User Manual above there is a list of bonus reward thingies that correspond to your Supporter Tier.

Build links to follow in a private post!

Thanks and please enjoy + forgive me for any issues!!!

Accessories System coming to next build!

Yo!

I've built an accessories system for Naughty Sandbox characters, and it's turned out quite swag IMO.

Supporters of any tier will be able to place & save accessories, but only supporters of $4 and above will have access to the Accessories tab of the Character Creator. The Accessories tab contains a management system which lets you customize the size, colors, and other aesthetics of placed accessories.

In the Accessories tab, each accessory will have it's own UI panel with two modifiable color parameters and one miscellaneous parameter (as seen in the screenshot) to let players get more variation out of accessories. Players can also more conveniently delete placed accessories here, but otherwise, accessories can also be removed by dragging and dropping them off of the girl.

There's a limited number of accessory items, and they only exist in the House level currently. I'll be doing som fun stuff like hiding accessories like collectables in each level, for now it's a little bare bones.

Current accessory objects are:

• Bow with 3 variations
• Wooden Rabbit Mask
• Plastic Bunny Ears
• Military / police style shades with 2 variations

Build will be coming in very soon, likely on the weekend, so please keep an eye out :D:D

Photography coming to next build!

Hey guys, I've been working on a photography feature which will make it into the next build, hopefully this week or next.

:)

The plan is to have photos save out to disk and also be viewable in an in-game photo gallery, but initial release will have them being saved out to disk sans an in-game photo viewer. There's no actual "photo mode", there will be an interactive camera that the player can pick up the same way other items are picked up.

Once held, the camera can zoom and take pics, and will auto focus on the subject while bluring background or foreground objects. Photos saved out will be high res & will have some more expensive rendering effects than normal gameplay, like lens flare & depth of field, so photographs will look super legit.

I've also added the ability for Desktop players to rotate objects once they're in drop mode. The same buttons to rotate User Interface items - Q,E,Z,X & scrolling the mouse wheel, can be used to rotate objects in Desktop mode like at the end of this photography clip -
