Software Added a media player shortcut that syncs to your VLC library... The assPod

EDIT: installer now creates an assPod shortcut in your (+) Launch Program menu, so you can launch the player without needing to launch the liquid glass theme.

Also added an assPod nano.

Has most of the functionality of an iPod Classic. Plays in the background too! Just updated as part of my LiquidAss theme.

This is awesome! I've already started opening a Firefox window to listen to music. This would be way more convenient

I am extremely tickled by you making all of your plugins ass-flavored. Please do not stop.

Dude, what the cheese. I'm working on just making a crappy dashboard overlay, and here is a fully rendered 3D model with a simulated OS on it.

How is this done, is it rendering to an off-screen texture in stereo and that is projected onto a head-locked texture? Or is it a custom controller model with a synced overlay for screen? I'm just confused, hah. It's too early in the morning to brain.

For the feed behind the glass, it's taking screen space and reprojecting that feed in stereo behind the glass. The iPod is js on a canvas. The model is a separate model that is locked to the controller (you can reposition where the ipod is attached to the controller if it feels off)

Are you able to make the 'trigger' to this pulling it out of your back pocket? This is sick

Pulling the assPod out of your "back pocket"... I know what kind of man you are

This is the best VR mod I think I've seen. I need this so bad, but for my silver ipod nano, 2nd gen.

Just pushed it out in a release. The scale is intentionally slightly larger than an actual nano because otherwise it's hard to read the text, but not large enough that it's really noticeable.
