Restim: e-stim audio generation software

[Pinco]

There is [volume] section in ini file... set to what you want to be default (20 here)

I had no line for default volume. I added it and now is ok
Thanks

Hi Diglet,

I've been playing with Restim for a while now, almost since you opened this topic. Certainly since before it included Media Sync. It's bloody clever stuff! I use a DIY Stereo Stim box connected via Bluetooth to a laptop. I've not yet made a FOC-Stim box.

Here's my feedback on the funscript converter change mentioned below:

New release: v1.29 https://github.com/diglet48/restim/releases

I also improved the funscript conversion in two ways, very fast movements (below 80ms) will have additional data points. I also added random direction changes (clockwise/counterclockwise) with a probability of 10%, this should make scripts feel less monotonous. I'm curious if this change works for everyone.

It certainly adds variety but I feel the change in direction is best suited to scripts that DON'T follow action. I've been trying my hand at scripting, mainly POV style videos, and where the script follows on-screen action, the flip flop in direction ruins, for me at least, the "immersion" in the scene.
I've worked around by using v1.28's converter, although I'm aware it generates fewer data points.

For those that care, I'm still using MFP to Restim because my stim box connects via Bluetooth and I can dial in an offset to overcome the Bluetooth delay. It also allows me to invert the beta funscript to make the sensation match the picture direction, but I might just need to swap my L and R connections around instead.

Anyway, thanks for all your time and effort.
HBR

I have to say, I'm also not a fan of the random direction changes and I've resorted to converting funscripts with an older version of Restim. I do hate giving up the extra data points. Maybe you can make the random direction changes something you can turn on and off.

Hi diglet,
thanks for the new 1.31 release, it is now easier to manage the volume and now I will definitely finish my FOC-Stim build...
Is it possible to change the volume mouse wheel step increment from .1 to 1 or maybe make it user defined?
Thanks

[diglet]

Thanks for the feedback on the funscript conversion. It took me a while but I added a checkbox to the funscript conversion dialog to enable/disable the random direction changes.

It's easy to change the mouse wheel step increment. I like the way it works now because I use the arrow keys and pgup/pgdn keys on my keyboard to change the volume. Will look into this next time I do some work on the UI.

hi diglet

I don't remember having seen this matter in previous posts; is it possible to specify at start-up different .ini files?
Apart from configs for FOC and DIY boxes it would be useful for setting the right parameters for different videos.

[diglet]

No there isn't. Should add it, since creating a shortcut with a path to the config file is much more elegant than copy-pasting the executable, the current behavior is to always load the config file from the current working directory.

I should try creating multiple shortcuts with different working directory specified (you can specify it in shortcut) so have only one exe (that you update) but each shortcut leads to a different working folder :)
Should work all fine with current version, not sure if it will allow to run 2 instances like I do now.

I finally got Restim to work and it has been an amazing experience.
Does anyone happen to know how to cut a segment of the funscript and loop that over and over, maybe increase the speed as the time goes on, and save that as a custom script?
Because the video and script I'm using with Restim has a segment that feels really good, the rest are good, and some are not as good. So I was wondering if there's perhaps a video editing style software that would just let me trim that funscript segment out and duplicate it to make a custom script, doesn't have to follow the video. Or perhaps somehow capture that in audio frequency and use audio editor to do similar thing.
Right now I just resort to use my mouse to rewind the segment over and over again for HFO, would love to make a custom script that loops it though.

Read up on OpenFunScripter, not sure if it can increase the speed as things go on, but you can definitely edit with the corresponding video allowing you to make changes. Apart from that, Funexpander and funscript.io and beta.funscript.io can let you do things like double speed. I've sometimes taken a funscript, did a speed double(or half if something was crazy), then opened both in notepad++ or just notepad if you want and carefully copy/paste parts of funscripts around. There's no perfect single tool, but OpenFunScripter gets close to doing almost everything.

I'm interested to know which video and segment as I like to study tastes and maybe use the knowledge for next creation

Have you tried to rework Clutch for FOC? The rework for Mistress and Control Box is pretty good and very close to the mp3 file

[edger477]

No, diglet reverse engineered MCB scripts and I understood that Clutch uses movements that are currently not supported by restim.

too bad, using only one box would be ideal...

Sorry for the late reply, it's Blake Blossom's Nurse POV video and script when she does the handjob at 21min mark. I converted the funscript in Restim. Not sure if it'll be everyone's liking.

I'm still trying to properly calibrate my setup using the circle on Restim (common head, left below balls with pad, right with anal plug), can't seem to adjust it to my liking cuz I don't really fully understand how it works, I just follow GitHub's default setting in the wiki. And a lot of times when it's trying to just stimulate the head, I find the signal very choppy and stingy for some reason, and not sure how to fix that.
