VioTech MechaBappers

Use code "ANNIVERSARY25" to get 25% off of my whole store until February 10th, 11:59pm CST!

The VioTech MechaBappers are here. The MechaBappers are a new development from VioTech, as a response to the numerous self-defense options on the rise in VRChat. This pair of large, mechanical paws are powered by the user's own kinetic energy, amplified by a mysterious arcane levitating gem.

Styled after cybernetic minimal future tech, these mecha-inspired gauntlets can pack a punch and a party. Several techwear and street wear enthusiasts swear by the enhanced silhouetting from the oversized, robotic fists. These are perfect for an android, wasteland protagonist, Hextech fanatic, or a simple bubble machine enjoyer.

Fitted with either a rapid-fire machine gun, or a recreational bubble maker. Functions as either a lower arm prosthetic or a glove. Caution!! Fire, water, and electricity will disable them until reset.

Currently, these can typically be disabled by these assets if interactions are on (including existing iterations!):
Spray Bottle for VRC (FREE)
FX -- Fire Breathing & Flame Sneeze
Smokeable Weed Pipe (Lighter)

Interactives:

When the palms are pressed in, they audibly click, then emit particles and a chime upon release.

When making a fist gesture and punching another user, they'll emit comic-book style confirmation particles and sound a flashy digital big band hit.

The user can activate a "Gun" Mode through the radial menu to access the gun.

• To fire, make either a fist or a thumbs-up gesture.
• The gun will overheat if fired too long.

The user can make a fist on both MechaBappers, and bash them together, building up Kinetic Charges.

• Build up enough charges, and the MechaBappers will be able to continue firing without overheating for much longer.

When hit with a Fire, Water, Shock, Damage, or similar VRC Contact Sender, they will be put in a Disabled State, in which the fingers go limp.

Installation:

These are currently a PC Only asset! Expect to be rated poor to very poor.

These do not currently track your fingers, and are only bones animated via gesture commands. With blender know-how, it is possible, but is untested.

Everything here is created by me -- from the model to animations to all of the sound design. Please let me know if anything is odd, broken, or difficult, I'm always looking to improve!

Project crashed? Showing "Websocket" errors? Known incompatibility with older poiyomi versions -- update your poiyomi with VCC here and you should be able to reopen your project!
