I am thinking of adding some kind of library module that will link videos and their respective scripts.

This would make it nice and simple to browse and click. However I know some people like to use different scripts for the same video so I am just thinking of the best way to implement it. Any ideas would be welcome.

An ability to pick the linked script and video files to the ¨scene¨ would work, perhaps?
Thanks for finally making it available on MacOS btw :heart_hands:

Unfortunately, we’re using iOS on Mac. I believe it is just the Apple silicon that can handle this. I’ll take a look and see if it is a possibility.

Thank you for your feedback. At the moment I am currently modifying the script editor where you can select between two points and set a number of actions within these points and also the system will tell you how many sequences of different actions can be made to make it a perfect loop Within that timeframe. I hope that makes sense but it works really well especially for creating cock heroes keeping it to the beat.

I am also thinking of implementing a method where you can select between two points and it will show you all of the different action values so that you can modify them all accordingly with ease.

I will make a video demonstrating this, but thank you for the feedback and if you have any ideas, please let me know.

I thank you for the script maker on the iPad! I’ve wanted to create scripts for a long time, but I don’t have a PC. I’m saving up for one, but still, it’s more convenient for me to use the iPad.

You’re very welcome. I am currently working on much more functionality to make the script editor next level!

Thank you for supporting this project and if you have any ideas or requests to make it better, please let me know

I have just added another feature for the cock hero script creators.

:fire: NEW INTERPOLATION FEATURES:

  • Beat-based pattern creation - think like a musician!
  • Perfect loop generation with no timing issues
  • Visual pattern preview before creation
  • No complex math required
  • Create intricate patterns in seconds instead of hours

:mobile_phone: HOW IT WORKS:

  1. Select two points with matching positions (e.g., both at 100%)
  2. Define your main beats (e.g., 10 beats over 10 seconds)
  3. Set subdivisions between beats (e.g., 3 actions between each beat)
  4. Enter your pattern values (e.g., 0%, 50%, 20%)
  5. Watch as the system creates a perfect repeating pattern!

:light_bulb: EXAMPLE PATTERN:
Creating a 100→0→50→20 pattern that repeats 10 times over 10 seconds now takes just seconds instead of manually placing 40+ individual points!

:hammer_and_wrench: TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Smart pattern detection ensures perfect loops
  • Automatic timing calculation
  • Prevention of timing drift
  • Support for complex multi-step patterns
  • Real-time pattern preview

This update transforms the script creation workflow, making it faster and more intuitive than ever before. Whether you’re creating scripts for music-synced content or complex motion patterns, this feature will save you hours of work.

I really like your blog-style YouTube updates. You sound like a nice chill person to hang with and the videos are fun to watch. It’s not an ad being shoved down my throat.

In my opinion I think the text is a bit much like this is a game changing mechanic, etc, a lot of words, it feels like it was generated by an LLM and over the top (apologies if that isn’t true, it’s just the vibe I get)

It might convert better if you have the same vibe I get from the videos in the text, more straight to the point and sounds more like you, expressing what’s new a bit more concisely.

Thanks for the feedback and yes, I did share my code with AI and asked it to generate a full description for YouTube which I then shared. I appreciate your constructive criticism and will try to summarise the changes.

There are some features on the iOS app that only work on apple silicon so they lock all others out.

I have built a brand-new platform for iOS, android and desktop users which is far more advanced than the iOS application.
