Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
Really excited to use this. What is the process on connecting the Launch to script player? Would we have to use Buttplug or is it possible to just use a bluetooth dongle? Sorry if this is a stupid question, coding isn't exactly my strong suit.

Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
Note that Buttplug is not actually released yet (and we aren't involved the development of ScriptPlayer), so the options for it in ScriptPlayer are... rather hopeful, and if it does work, could still break horribly at any time. :)
We're hoping to get to a buttplug release soon, we're just finishing up a couple of our own applications on top of it first. For ScriptPlayer, I would say that the direct connection via launch option is your best bet for now.

Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
The launch can be connected directly (with the button "Connect to Launch directly") or via Buttplug. You'll need a BLE (BT 4.0) compatible bluetooth dongle either way.Mattman91c wrote: ↑Fri Jul 07, 2017 3:52 amWhat is the process on connecting the Launch to script player?

The Launch is the only device that is supported directly by the player. All others have to be connected via Buttplug.

Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
Ok, so, while the Buttplug developers aren't involved in the ScriptPlayer development, we /are/ QA. So here's a quick how-to to get you started:
- First off, have a combination of a funscript file (files available at https://github.com/FredTungsten/ScriptP ... er/Scripts) and a video (I pulled CockHero-Pendulum-NoHost off PornHub to test this) ready.
- On your windows 10 machine, make sure Bluetooth is on in the Bluetooth Settings
- Turn your Fleshlight Launch on, blue light should be blinking (Make sure you do this before starting ScriptPlayer. It matters.)
- Start ScriptPlayer
- Go to "Options" -> Connect Launch Directly and click on it
- In a second or two, the blue light on your launch should stay on instead of blinking
- The ScriptPlayer GUI will show "Launch Connected"
- In the file menu, load a movie file (THE MOVIE WILL START PLAYING WHEN YOU LOAD IT SO, UH, BE... 'READY'), and the matching funscript file
- Hit play, and off you go!

Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
Just tried it out. I don't know if I can go back to old fashion CH's now. Amazing.

Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
I have always been curious about the Fleshlight Launch and CH. Will the Scriptplayer understand any CH or it needs to be a seperate file programmed for a specific video?
In that case, is there someone that is making this kind of script files for the lastest videos or is easy to do it on your own?

Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
Right now, each movie needs to have a script of its own, and that will probably continue to be the way for the foreseeable future.
Liquid's making scripts, links are in both Liquid's original release post and my tutorial post.
It's not like, the easiest to make scripts on your own yet, but we're working on tools for it to make it easier. My personal goal is the ability to make video encodings in a web browser, so you don't even have to download a program.

Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
Hello,
Can someone knowledgeable provide further information / clarifications?
* How are the ScriptPlayer project and Buttplug (or all the dev work done at metafetish) related?
* Is ScriptPlayer project related to Launchcontrol (https://github.com/funjack/launchcontrol)? or are they two independent projects?
* Do I understand well that the only player project from metafetish is syncydink? This will be web based, thus multiplatform?
What would be really great is a library to automatically import any script format (Vorze, RealTouch, Funscript), so that a player could read any file and send it to any device. Is that what the haptic-movie-file-reader project is supposed to achieve?
Alternatively, converters from one format to another would be useful...
I currently have a Launch and a Vorze and am following what is being made. Ideally, I'd like to control those devices with CH scripts / movies(or other movies, the X-Art ones are good too) under Linux. But currently I can try things out on Windows.
PS: would be awesome if someone here made a list of all scripts available, like the lists we have for CHs...

Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
I started working on the ScriptPlayer to automate CockHero/FapHero Videos for the Launch - which is actuall how qDot found me here (this thread). qDot is developing Buttplug - by itself it is basically a control server if you will for a variety of Sex Toys and is meant for more than just videos. ScriptPlayer can control the Launch directly (and is optimized for it) and if you connect ScriptPlayer to Buttplug you can use any sex toy you want (as long as Buttplug can connect to it). Most of the conversions already work.
No - ScriptPlayer was coincidentially named LaunchControl, but Funjack was first so I changed the name. Launchcontrol does pretty much the same as Buttplug for the Launch and the Plugins for VLC and Kodi add script support to the video player (sync the Launch to Videos). We do use the same script format (FunScript) and are active in generally the same area, but as far as development goes these are two completely separate projects. I don't know if Launchcontrol will support further toys or connect to buttplug too or anything, qDot probably knows more about that.mirdanhel wrote: ↑Wed Jul 12, 2017 1:55 pm Is ScriptPlayer project related to Launchcontrol (https://github.com/funjack/launchcontrol)? or are they two independent projects?
I think that's correct - yes. Afaik the only requirement is that your browser supports WebSockets - which basically every one does.
Reading any format and controling any device would be one of the goals.
Also yes, we agreed on FunScript for now because it contains the most detailed data and should be sufficient to convert to any other devices.
If you want to try Launch + Windows, see qDot post for instructions on how to use ScriptPlayer.
For Linux and Mac you need FunJacks Launchcontrol, the Scripts are the same.
True, I'd also like to link to the video source (pornhub, MEGA, torrent) but that might be pushing the ToS of GitHub a bit far.
Afaik I'm the only one generating FunScripts for CockHero and FapHero videos, all of them (at least the ones I've finished and tested) can be found here:
https://github.com/FredTungsten/ScriptP ... er/Scripts
FunJack's Scripts are here:
https://github.com/funjack/funscripts
I know the whole interconnectivity/compability/etc. thing can be a bit complicated. In short: we are a bunch of pervs from all over the globe who work together on various (partially connected) projects in our spare time. Sooner or later there will we a list or map or whatever with tutorials on how to get your device working on which OS/Player.
P.S. If there are any Scripts missing that you would like to see added, let me know.

Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
My turn!
Basically, Buttplug makes it very, very easy for other people to develop software to make their software work with a wide array of sex toys. When someone wants to connect to a device over bluetooth/usb/serial, usually it takes some custom code to talk over any of those connections, and sometimes it can get pretty complicated. The goal of Buttplug is to make all of those basically look the same, so anyone can use the same basic programming interface to access any toy Buttplug supports.
ScriptPlayer is not directly related to Buttplug in that they were developed separately at first (though we all sit in the same Slack instance together so we talk a lot). ScriptPlayer is the first real application to actively use Buttplug for toy access. While ScriptPlayer supports the Launch itself, adding Buttplug means it now supports the Launch plus a variety of different vibrators and other toys. As toy support in Buttplug continues to grow, it means ScriptPlayer may have support for things like Estim, possibly without having to change any of their own code.
That said, this is the idea behind Buttplug. Right now it's hard to tell what it does because there's like, 2-3 of us working on it, there's not much documentation, etc. But the hope is that as we get releases out and documentation up, we'll start seeing all sorts of programs that control sex toys popping up all over the place.
Buttplug (developers: qdot/bsf) - Provides general toy access in a cross platform way (or at least, it will. We're still currently Windows only)
LaunchControl/Funscript (developer: funjack) - I've been referring to funjack as our R&D department. They were instrumental in mapping out the control algorithms for the Launch. tl;dr we don't get as much information as we would like from the Launch, so funjack did the math to make movements as smooth as possible based on the information we do get. LaunchControl is their Go based implementation, which works on Linux/MacOS, and may work on Windows with Buttplug support at some point (which they've done some work on but I'm not sure about plans). They've got Kodi and VLC plugins too, though I'm not sure how much work it is to get those set up.
ScriptPlayer (developer: liquid) - The first windows shippable package of all of the aforementioned stuff. Without ScriptPlayer, the only thing that could connect to Buttplug right now would be our test scripts, so we'd still have another month ahead of us trying to develop sample applications. Not to mention, Liquid is also linked to this community, and can help out with the specific needs of what Cock Hero users. Since I'm developing Buttplug, I can't really wade too deep into any specific usage because I just don't have time, so what I'm really hoping to see is more people from other communities using the platform and then taking it back to their own community to build for their own needs. This community just happens to be the first to get that. :)
That's why this doesn't really collide with ScriptPlayer. Sure, they both play movies, but there's different goals for each.
For the cross-platform side: On windows, it will talk to the native Buttplug client. On Mac/Linux/Android/ChromeOS, it will use WebBluetooth (if you're on google chrome), so everything will literally just work out of the browser with no installation required, assuming you're wanting to use a bluetooth toy. Neat, huh? Right now that second part is an "after we release v0.1 of the windows client" deal, but I'm hoping it won't take too long to spin up.
Ok, so the idea behind Buttplug may be a little abstract, so I'll try to explain it as best I can here.

Yup. The goal behind syncydink is to give myself a platform to easily iterate on UI experiments for porn viewing. I've been really interested in new ways to optimize and change UI/UX for porn intake, and just wanted a system I built myself that's flexible and easy to change. For instance, I've already had a request from someone who likes to watch multiple movies at the same time. That's an interesting UX challenge I think we can address, as well as add haptics to!
That's why this doesn't really collide with ScriptPlayer. Sure, they both play movies, but there's different goals for each.

Yup, that's exactly what that is. We'll also be documenting those formats so that people can easily implement readers in other programming languages, though for now if anyone is just itching to get going on that, all of our stupid string parsing happens in https://github.com/metafetish/haptic-mo ... andlers.ts
Ok, cool. I've got a Launch and Vorze also, Vorze is gonna come into the protocol real quick after v0.1 hopefully (sorry, we just had to draw a feature line somewhere so we could get a first release done), and the WebBluetooth version should work on linux. We've got the protocol mapped already, it's at https://metafetish.github.io/cockblender-docs/
Having a web database of these is on my very, very, very long todo list. For now, either funjack or liquid's github repos are the best bet.

Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
Quick update: I somehow managed to forget that I already implemented the Vorze in buttplug and we only had one more small change to make to get it working. I'll get that done tonight, and we should have Vorze support on first release. :)
Re: Cock Hero and Fleshlight Launch
qDot, Liquid, thanks for the info.
Liquid, I tried ScriptPlayer with two scripts (Fap Hero - StarTrak Remaster & Cock Hero - Awesome-X Temptation 4) on the Launch. However, results were somewhat disappointing so far. I am not sure if it comes from the software or the particular script, but for instance on the CH, the movement were strange. I think the synchronization was the equivalent of a "beginner mode" for CH: eg, the movement was one direction per beat, not a full stroke per beat. Also the amplitude was probably too low - anyway it was not very intense. I know the Launch hardware can do "much better" because I tried one of their sample videos on feelme and it was much, much better.
Similarly the FapHero felt strange too.
Do you have any script you would recommend in the ones you wrote? Else, as mentionned, do you have some converters for instance from Vorze to funscript? I have some Vorze scripts that are really good (excellent sync to the video, great stimulation). So I could try with one of those on the Launch.
You asked about any script I would like added to your list - I am beginning on CHs and I started with the first two ones from lalaland, so if you have time to write those, it would be awesome
Thanks for all your work! I will try buttplug as soon as there is a first release available.

@Launch Speed
Unfortunately the Launch can't handle most of the faster videos (at least not via Bluetooth ) and is limited to 3 strokes (up and down) per second. Many CockHero videos use up to 10 so using a single beat for up and another one for down was the only option to make it work. You can however speed things up a bit by tweaking the settings with the hidden panel on the right side of the window (hover your mouse to the right - I know, I need to make it a bit more obvious):
- Range - that's the min and max positions (Amplitude) be creful - if you set it too low it might push the Fleshlight against you.
- Speed Multiplier - as the name suggests - might cause a slight gap between two beats but at least it's faster
Since we want to support other toys too that might support higher speeds, I might add an option to play the script in double speed mode or something (or convert them again with twice the beats, idk)
Another option would be to double slow beats and keep beats that are fast enough, but that might make the movements a bit monotonus - more experimentation reqired
@Vorze
I do not (yet) support anything but FunScripts, but if you can link me to the ones you mentioned, I can take a look.
@Scripts
As long as you can link the source (preferably PornHub 720p) and the video has a consistent beatbar I can (usually) make it work.
@Recommendation
CockHero OSU!, FapHero Pendulum and (if testing goes well with the next few days) PS' FapHero No 1
