Stunprod update, chastity belt WIP
Quick update because a few things have happened since yesterday:
A kind soul on the KDC Booth Store reported an issue with the parameter setup of the VRChat Stunprod. That is now fixed and you can download the package (version 1.2) to correct the problem (the Patreon reward has also been updated).
Someone also made me aware of a packaging/assembly error with the KDC Lined Chrome Chastity belt; There are floating chain links on points that cannot receive or send chains, making it impossible to remove them. The fix is relatively simple but it took a moment to figure out what exactly happened.
I was also considering putting out some PBR related fixes and ended up starting a full PBR refresh of the material, picture included: on the left is the original and on the right, the PBR version. Nothing fancy, that’s more or less what it would have looked like if we had decent metal rendering back then.
If I actually do this I’m gonna have to do some edits in the HUD & labia shroud code to dual-stack the two material systems, the same way I’ve done with the Stunprod.
What should I do about the fingerprint padlock?
Allright… This has gone for long enough… The Fingerprint Padlock was supposed to be the simple, trouble-free, default option when someone first tries the TouchBound system.
But the reality is that it really isn’t doing a good job at this.
So lets break it down point by point:
- 👍 You can’t lose the key.
- 👍 The internal imprint allows some form of self bondage.
- 👎 Keyed padlocks and time padlocks are more suited for self bondage & escape games.
- 👎 Identity imprint are a one time thing and doesn’t survive resets.
- 👎 It is too complex for something supposed to be the “basic” lock of the TouchBound system.
A little while ago I passed around a “beta” version of a “Public padlock”, I received some good feedback from it and therefore, I’m starting to believe that it might be time to do something with it.
Breakdown of the public padlock:
- You can’t lose the key.
- Whoever locks is the only person that can unlock.
- No configuration is required.
- The name of the locker is always visible on the locked item’s infobox.
- It can be used by anyone if worn on a non-hud slot, no “give your locks” required for play.
So there you go everyone! Time to make your choice 😛

Nipple shackle dilemma.
I had to widen the shackle gap to make it look right around a “standard” nipple (okay, whatever I had on hand really).
But I’m not really sure which version would be the best:
- A The V shaped shackle.
- B Straight shackle and wider 180° turn.
- C Straight shackle with a “two step” 180° turn.
I’m not sure that the polling plugin works anymore but I’ll try to add one anyway, feel free to vote for more than one option.
Which nipple shackle design should I use?
- C. Straight with a "two step" 180° turn. (23%, 10 Votes)
- B: Straight with a wide 180° turn. (52%, 23 Votes)
- A: V-shaped. (25%, 11 Votes)

Yes, I know the poll results don’t show, it’s a bug, but votes are still recorded.
