The standalone version of the Nose Hook comes with a special feature that allows others (or the wearer) to click and “drag” the top of the wearer's head to effectively “pull” on the nose hook either forward, causing their head to pitch down, or backward causing their head to pitch up. it is accompanied with a suitable leather “creaking” sound effect.

Due to the numerous strap sections, fitting this product is a fairly advanced process. But it also means that it should be flexible enough to fit almost every mesh and non-mesh head on the market.

• None of the mesh parts are essential, and can be swapped and/or removed.
• All the elements have been uploaded with tweaked rotations and points of origin to allow the best possible non-uniform scaling of each strap element.

Parts and scripts are provided to add a nose hook to the KDC Raider Harness Gag. (this modification requires a piece of land with build rights)

config.nose.angle=0 : Disable the nose pulling effect.
config.nose.angle=10 : The nose pulling effect will be 10 degrees up.
config.nose.angle=25 : The nose pulling effect will be 25 degrees up.

NOTE: This feature only works properly with mesh avatars with a humanoid nose weighted to the FaceNoseCenter bone.

When this feature is enabled, the wearer and other avatars can click the invisible area at the top of the head and “pull” it forward/backward to make the avatar head move.

config.grab.enabled=Yes : The click and grab feature is enabled.
config.grab.enabled=Self : The click and grab feature is enabled but only available to the wearer.
config.grab.enabled=No : Disables the feature.

By default, the KDC Nose Hook will notify the wearer in chat when someone is pulling on their nose hook.
