Does anybody know the name of the plugin where your character was able to realistically rotate their torso when looking behind them as opposed to turning their whole body? It also allowed you to do other realistic movement, you could carry multiple items on your back and realistically take them out of your inventory. I remember watching a YouTube video on the topic, but I forgot the name of the plugin.
Hey there @iLegoSiEuAm! You may be remembering the old ALS plugin though is has a modern port using GASP as a base:

Hey @SupportiveEntity! Thank you for your reply! It’s very similar to GASP ALS, but it’s not the one I’m looking for. I want to clarify something about my post though: the said plugin allows the player to rotate the camera around their character, without rotating the character, and then, if you want to for example, aim behind you, with your camera facing from the front of your player, you character would just turn their torso behind to aim. This is the detail I remember the most about the plugin. It made it look very realistic. Also, the YouTube video showcasing the plugin used a fully textured player character, not a dummy. Thank you for your time though!
Oh technically GASP does come with other models, the ALS port just ripped them out for space. It also has the ability to turn without turning the whole body, just the head until you zoom in.
You could be referencing the old “MoveIt!” plugin, which while not as robust as ALS had similar features, though seems to be missing the carrying objects as well.
Kai Locomotion was another popular locomotion system, but it seems to be missing the carrying objects for the showcase.
Do you remember anything else that might stand out?
No, unfortunately. Just the torso thing and the YouTube video. I’ll keep searching and update this post if I ever find it. Thank you very much for your time and effort!
