Thanks to the holidays I've been rather quiet, but that doesn't mean work isn't happening!However, that also doesn't mean the work is very interesting to anyone but core developers, either. :)

As of last week, we've mostly finished up the new v1 implementation of the Buttplug Protocol Spec. This adds a couple of really important things:

Yet another quick non-buttplug-related update, but it's important.https://blog.patreon.com/not-rolling-out-fees-change/

I will now return to holding it against you if you discontinue your patronage. (No I won't)

Just wanted to say, anyone that does not want to deal with the new Patreon fee model, no hard feelings if you stop support for my campaign. What I have gotten so far has been very appreciated, and I plan to continue my patreon campaign, as well as look at other options like Ko-fi. 

I know the new fee system change is pretty rough though, and I'm not gonna hold it against anyone if they don't agree with it.

Another month, another Q&A. Roping in the $1 tier for this month because it's Christmas.So, if you got questions about metafetish/buttplug/life/etc, feel free to post them here and I'll answer to the best of my ability.

It's been a little quiet around here lately, so I figured I'd share what's going on in development.- ET-312 Estim serial protocol support is now in the C# client. This allows users with ET-312 boxes to scale intensity based on input.

• .NET Standard conversion of the C# project is finished. This is a fancy way of saying we're getting closer to being able to use C# for mobile apps on Android/iOS. Our goal there is to have a Websocket Server App for phones, which will solve even more platform issues (we hope).

Here we go.https://ci.appveyor.com/api/buildjobs/3lohva12t662uun2/artifacts/ButtplugNodeServer-1.0.9.7z

https://github.com/FredTungsten/ScriptPlayer/releasesScriptPlayer 1.0.3 was released this morning, now with Whirligig support! This means you can now use any buttplug compatible toy with a real VR Movie Player, versus our hacked together player in Syncydink that I still need to fix up.

I haven't checked with the Whirligig dev yet, but in testing we've had to run with the Beta version of Whirligig on Steam, so you may need to set the beta channel. There's info on how to use ScriptPlayer and Whirligig together at

Ok. Time for that part of the month where you ask questions and I answer.ASK.

There ya go. Proof of concept demo using the Launch with Win 7 on a laptop. No VM, no tricks, this is just normal ol' Windows 7 on a normal ol' laptop.I'm using the same Plugable dongle I recommend for Win 10 users. It just requires some different drivers to be installed.

Please do not pass this video around, as I don't want a ton of people poking me about this. Getting the proof of concept going was the easy part, getting the system to the point of being usable by others and ready for release is going to require more work.

Holy shit, the first Buttplug based stunt hack that didn't come from our own dev channels!A developer I used to work with on Rez Trancevibrator stuff a while ago (https://twitter.com/curious_jp)) posted the python script for this earlier today, after seeing the game at the BlushBox (http://blushboxgames.com/)) intimate games exhibition at PAX Australia. I pulled it and it pretty much just worked! There's more explanation in the video description on youtube.

I'll be making a longer video about how the script works soon, but just wanted to get a video demo up now 'cause HOLY SHIT! :D
