Introduction
This HUD allows you to perform interactive animation sequences with other avatars. It includes 47 motion captured paired animations. 12 hug animations, 6 fighting animations, 11 fun silly animations,6 greetings animations, 4 kiss animations, and 8 couples dance animations. All the animations have been capture in our motion capture studio with real actors. This is a new completely remastered 2014 version of our popular couples animator.

Getting Started
Inside this package you will find two versions of the HUD. One has been setup for male avatars and the other for female avatars. Select the HUD that is most suitable for you, right click on it in your inventory and select ‘Add’ to attach it. You should then see the HUD attached to your screen and are ready to trigger couples interactions. Select an animation from the HUD using the categories and actions buttons. The currently selected category and action will appear in the display windows. Face a target avatar you wish to animate with and then click the play button. Your target avatar will be asked first if they wish to animate with you. If they agree the animation sequence will begin. Before you trigger an animation sequence I recommend you line up with your target avatar so you are facing them head on as best you can. The animations inside the HUD are designed for regular avatars of a similar height where the female is slightly shorter. Were possible I have designed the animations to make height differences have as minimal impact as I can.

Clicking the maximize and minimize button on the side of the hud will cause it slide in and out freeing up space on your screen.

2) Stop Button
Hit the stop button on the HUD to stop a currently running animation sequence. If your hud is set to loop mode you will need to use this to stop the animation. The target avatar can also stop an animation by saying /99stop in chat.

3) Play Selected Animation Button
Hit the play button to play the currently selected animation. When you click it a drop down menu will appear with a list of avatars nearby you can animate with. Selecting the name of one will send them an invite to animate with you. When they agree the animation will start

4) Reverse Roles Button
Toggle this button to reverse animation roles. For example if you are using a punch animation where you punch the target avatar. Click this so it is lit up and your target avatar will punch you instead.

5) Loop Animation Button
When lit the animations will play continuously until you stop them by pressing the stop button. (A couple of animations are not looped so will not work with this feature.) If loop mode is not active then the animation will stop after a predefined time configured in the settings notecard inside the HUD.

6) Sync Button
Animations have to download to your viewer before they can plays, if there are any delays due to lag or slow broadband speeds this can cause them to start out of sync. If this happens click this button to resynchronise them.

Click this to display the help menu.

Buying this in the 2012 is a mistake, cause animations in it are obsolete and quite robotic...

I'm really disappointed, this hud is too expensive and not much practical to use, the avatars are not synchronized, i dont recommend it.

Disappointed.

For the price I paid for this, I am highly disappointed in the HUD, it's very jittery, the animations never line up, takes a lot of effort just to hug someone, just very disappointed, and I can easily say it was a waste of money.

Not the best

For such a high price I thought it would be very good. It has tons of animations and the HUD has good detail, but all the animations are jittery and some are just weird to use. The animations are never lined up, and its embarrassing to use with friends. I wouldn't recommend buying this.
