wip Real-Time Body Physics (DirectX 11)

Here are a few screenshots and an Avi.

In the Avi you can see how the triangle is more during certain animations that triangle appears. In some animations it is very disfiguring.

Do the new rigs in WW affect how RTBP behaves? I'm asking because the butts are slightly distorted on all my sims and no one can answer me why?

Box butt definitely IS due to the changes in WW body parts--bones, vertices changed to update, accommodate latest version capabilities .  I've had to change default female bottoms to older WW-derived parts like those authored by YOT.  less than ideal, but i hope that helps.

Alrighty, then. I'll take a look at these meshes and recalculate the constants if necessary. Thanks for your feedback.

Real-Time Body Physics is a highly experimental mod for the Sims 4 that attempts to add real-time body physics to sims. Currently, only the breasts and butt are targeted, but other parts could be added in the future.

 

The mod works via a fake DirectX 9 DLL that behaves just like the real deal, but injects a little extra code into the rendering loop (See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooking). The source code is included for those that want to see how it works.

 

Please read the included "README.html" file before using this mod. It explains how to install, configure, and control the mod in-game.

 

Note for those with an Intel GPU:

 

You'll need to tweak a Sims 4 configuration file for RTBP to work. Go to your game installation directory + "/Game/Bin/" (the same place you put "d3d9.dll"), and open the file "GraphicsRules.sgr". Find the line that says "setProp $ConfigGroup EnableSoftwareSkinning true" (for me it was on line 117) and replace the part that says "true" to "false".

 

This will enable hardware skinning for Intel hardware and allow RTBP to work.

 

 

 

 

Bonus: If you'd like, you can try out the super duper, highly experimental, RTBP GUI tool that allows you to Alt+Tab out of the game and change settings on the fly via the RTBP Command Server using a user friendly GUI interface:

 

 

* Screenshot is out of date.

 

The RTBP GUI Tool is a work in progress and more features will be added soon. Beware that you can send values to RTBP that might break it and cause body parts to disappear.

Bonus 2: Having a bit of trouble installing RTBP? Try out the RTBP installer. Just select the RTBP zip file you'd like to install, your Sims 4 installation directory, and your Sims 4 mods directory. The RTBP Installer will attempt to automatically detect these paths, so if you're unsure, I recommend going with the default values.

 

Update 2021-11-18: The RTBP Installer now has an uninstallation wizard.

I'm not sure I would right now.  FEELS like TURBODRIVER is actively tweaking these meshes.  If you cemented something right now, it might be broken by the next WW update.  I feel like your mod is game-changing.  IMO, it's more than appropriate to reach out to TURBODRIVER and try to coordinate something with him.  I've heard he has a good attitude.

Thanks for your work, CPVC!   seriously!

That might be the problem. Using RTBP's "dumpSimBuffers" command, importing the .obj mesh file into Blender, and shading it smooth gives me this:

 

 

Granted, the problem could still be on my end, but let's let TURBODRIVER finish tweaking their meshes before I make any changes.

 

Thanks for the kind words.

Regarding my earlier report of nipple piercings not moving with the breasts, I also wanted to add that some semi-transparent, or net tops will move (breasts), while the breasts don't, and end up clipping through the top. 

One other issue that I only just tracked down to this mod, is there are some weird flickering issue going on with bottoms, male and female. This is mostly evident with ghosts, and so I never noticed it until I had a ghost. I initially thought it was a texture issue with 1.89, and went through every related mod, but it turned out disabling RTBP, or butt physics fixed it. With butt physics enabled, ghost legs are fully opaque, and will flicker as the camera moves. Also, living sims when fading in and out for animations, will have flickering legs, but otherwise normal in normal play.

This won't work for me. When I install it, the sims 4 will not open at all.

Try reinstalling DirectX. That might do the trick. A few people here have done that and it worked for them. I'm not sure why it seems to work, but more than a couple people have said that doing that fixed it.

Hello friend. First of all, your work is amazing! Thank you for this mod.

 

But... it is not working properly in my new PC. In my old PC it was working fine, the physics looked very realistic.

But now in my new PC (gtx 1070), the physics looks weird. Plus, when the women walk they don't jiggle. Only when they stand still. 

 

I already did the thing in the graphicrules for intel, but it still not working properly. 

 

Please, what should I do?

I tried to reinstall using the installer, but same thing is happening. The installation was sucessful, the logo apears when starts the game, but the jiggle doens't happen when they walk.

I installed the mod correctly and the logo pops up when loading into the game but nothing is happening in game. I also use the RTBP GUI tool and it connects but changing settings does nothing in game. Here's my log file.

I also ran the command - rtbp.command "forceTest" and my simulation straight up freezes.

Your log file indicates that you're running an outdated version of RTBP (v0.4-p2). Try downloading and installing the latest version. Also get the latest versions of the installer. Hopefully that helps. If not, let me know.

Your log file says that software skinning might be enabled. Just a hunch, but are you running this on a laptop? If not, what sort of machine are you running?

I am running this on desktop computer with a Ryzen 9 5900X and a 3060TI 

One thing I will say is that I do use the Simp's GraphicsRules Setters for Sims 4
Also I have wickedwhims installed, Wicked Perversions, and Basemental Drugs

Ok. I downloaded the v0.4 - p3. Is that the lastest version?

Now I have another issue: the tits are working fine, but the butt is static yet. Sometimes, rarely, it moves (when the change clothes). But when walking, dancing or etc, it doesn't jiggle.

Also, where can I find the new version of the installer plz?

The installer can be found on the file page for this mod, here.  Look about half way down.

You have to disable skinning in the SimpsSetters.sgr too

Oh I see! That's one hell of a computer you got there. I guess my hunch was incorrect. I'll see what I can do. I've noticed that a lot of people having problems are using the same or a similar GPU to yours. There has to be a connection. Don't worry, I'm on the case.

The default RTBP settings are pretty tame, so that might explain why you're not seeing a lot of movement. I tried to make them as realistic as possible, so they might be a little subtle. If you want to see some serious wiggle, I suggest playing with the variables until you find settings that suit your needs. RTBP Commander can help you out with this.

I have this exact same issue, butt only moves on specific occasions, changing clothes being the one where it happens regularly. Seems to be affected by the gravity slider in RTBP commander, but doesn't move with animations. I've tried all kinds of extreme settings in commander but it's been of no help. Also, in CAS, it's like the butt is fixed in place - when the sim animates, the butt doesn't follow, like the spring is completely broken.

 

Edit: I'm on version 1.88.228 and WW version v169b

Great mod and an incredible achievement but unfortunately I'm experiencing the same issue as other users where the butt doesn't jiggle at all except when changing outfits. I tried lowering the gravity and mass but it's still the same, completely static. I know it's not the settings because the jiggle when I change outfits is very distinguishable. I'm on the latest game version with no Wicked Whims installed.

 

That aside, a small complaint I have is the way the butt looks when stationary isn't very good because of the two static faces in the middle which create this weird triangle shape. I don't know if it's intended or not but it's very noticeable on most clothes that aren't dresses or high-waisted pants.

This is a weighting problem, not the physics. You have to edit the lower body and play with each of the Butt weights until it deforms to your liking.
