I'm not sure, actually. RTBP hasn't been tested with all versions of the Sims 4. I've always developed RTBP on the latest version of the Sims, so it's possible that it won't work on older versions. Could you post your log file? It might offer me some insight into what's going on.

Something seems to be wrong with my installation even though I follow instructions to the letter.

It's the d3d9.dll

The game simply will not launch with the one in the RTBP zip file, no matter what I do. It was working fine before I purchased the most recent expansion, but after installing it the game refuses to start with RTBP.

 

Do you get any error messages when you try to launch the Sims? If so, what do they say? Thanks.

[ToxicCG]

No, it just starts and crashes. No messages. The process just terminates.

This is probably not possible due to the way this works but if there was some way individual Sim settings could be done that would be awesome.

Regardless of whether CPVC addresses this in the next update, this problem can be fixed immediately by using their program "RTBP Commander" (it's on the main download page) to disable Male Butt Physics. Obviously this means you lose that feature of the mod, but if you're like me, you're more interested in the females having physics. I was experiencing the same issue until I tried this.

problem persist with male physics off .. i see this problem caused by some shirts.. upper body clothes

Damn... Well, you're not the only one having this problem. I'll try and improve debugging even more so I have a better idea of what's going on.

That is something I hope to implement eventually, but I haven't found a way to associate sim buffers with individual sims yet. Still working on it, though. Stay tuned.

Everyone else: I'm making progress implementing 3D weight maps that can be applied to meshes at runtime. These are made and fine-tuned in Blender, then exported as files that can be loaded by RTBP. 

 

This will most likely be the default way of adding physics to body parts that don't exist yet in the future, like the butt and dick. It's much more accurate and customizable compared to the current method and will make it much easier to add new body parts.

I'll be on lookout I'd love to add the weight maps to my butt and breast mods

this sounds like the script part of the mod that has to be updated with every sims patch update is probably the issue if you have updated to the latest DLC refresh it could be the issue. 

just an idea. most script mods break the game after an update

cc shirts for male sims sink and jiggle through body and i LOVE this mod how can i fix this?

I'm going to say that I have been using this mod through the last four DLC's without issue.  I haven't had to update anything RTBP.  In fact I used a months old version for quite a while, then updated.  I don't use the commander app, but instead edit the settings.ini file for tweaks.

 

All this "crashing without message" is what typically happens when someone has many mods; soo many that they have one, two, or many that needed to be discarded as incompatible with the latest DLC. 

 

I've been modding sims since 2014, and have learned this.  I have nearly 6000 mod files AND RTBP running without issue in WW.

 

file management.

 

painfully, you MUST backup your mods folder to another location, and start cleanly.  Slowly add mods in groups until you get the crash again. Narrow down the actual crash-culplrit.

 

OR just add RTBP to see if IT is the actual offender on your system.  It's really the only way to be sure.

so what ive tried is to disable breast bounce with this mod and replace it with BS boobies so that males with custom cc shirts dont have glitchy loose physics and so far it works pretty well.

I also did the same, but I use Simdulgence body parts for both genders (bottom body) and it has some weird glitch to it so I'm just waiting and hoping there is some kind of fix for it.

Could you guys link me to the meshes that are malfunctioning with RTBP? I'll take a look at them and see what I can do to fix this. Thanks.

 

Also, sorry about the bugs. RTBP is still a work in progress and I'm trying to iron out all the problems, but some things I can't predict, like complications with custom content.

What other aspects of the game can be changed using Direct X ? For example, if a sim sits on a bed, then she squeezes under him, if a sim  rests on the table with his chest, then the chest is deformed.

I get sort of a hickup action bobs and but bounce every few seconds even when standing still

textures on your sims are updating:  several ways this happens:  turn off WW sweating, you have another mod or game setting that updates sim textures.

[MadFluffyPanda]

Ok so I apologize if I missed it, I did go through every page, but I notice that male stomachs wobble back and forth. I took the time to test a few thing and found that its linked to the breast physics. Has this been fixed? Am I just being dumb and messed up? Or is it in the process of being looked at as I know this mod is still in development. Looking forward to more from you, keep up the good work.

Yeah, this is a known problem. This evening I spent some time working on this, and I think I might have found a way to fix it. It's certainly not perfected yet, but from what I've seen, it's looking pretty good.

 

As far as I can tell, the problem is that the Sims 4 seems to be optimizing their vertex buffers by excluding bone and blending data that isn't required at the time. When that information is required, the Sims creates an entirely new vertex buffer with the updated information and RTBP detects it as such and creates new simulators.

 

I've been working on recognizing when this happens and transferring the state of the old sim buffers' simulators over to the new vertex buffer, and it seems to be working fairly well.

I'm not really sure why this keeps happening, but I am aware of it, and I am working on fixing it. I think it has something to do with elder female breasts support. They tend to, uh... droop closer to the chest and lower, compared to younger female sims. I think I need adjust the vertex selection constants. My algorithms might be accidentally detecting male stomachs as elder female breasts. Whoops!

What would help is if you made the change to the GraphicsRules.sgr file yourself so someone like me who CRINGES at the VERY IDEA of messing with code like that doesn't have to 

 

All that would have to be done is to simply OVERWRITE the file instead

How would this mod improve the rendering of a fuck scene like this??

 

Just curious…

Or for some of weird body turning animations like those seen in this video & this video (Both from my XVideos page) 

 

Again just curious…

I'm worried that the file might differ between versions of the Sims 4 and if I included a modified copy of the file, it might not be compatible with everyone's game install.

 

I could be wrong, though. I'll do some research. If the file is the same across all versions, I'll include the modified file with future releases of RTBP.

RTBP should add to the animations. Any breast physics manually added or baked into the animations will remain.

There are very few authors who make high-quality breast animation, a lot of animations in which the chest simply does not move or does not move naturally. It is very important that RTBP works in WW animations! For those who like the author's animation of the chest, this paragraph can be turned off.
