Unity VaM 2 [v1.1.1 Beta] [Meshed VR]

[dzenrei]

Yes, but it's awkward right now. You can't access the UI in VR.

Thank you, I hope it will be easier to work with compared to the regular version, or is it still just as complicated?

If you want to port the code to Unreal let me know.

How did you get godot to read vmb/vmi morphs?

How did you get godot to read vmb/vmi morphs?

.vmb files are just a sequence of morphs (vertex id,x,y,z) so I just read the data and apply the offset to the mesh vertex. Vmi I believe to modify bones and those still I don't manage.

In the thread I linked you can download the full Godot project with source code.

This last week brought a lot of work on the VaM2 platform. After each VaM release some time will be spent on VaM2 to make progress towards the future for VaM. Due to this parallel work, VaM releases will not always come out on an exact monthly basis as has already happened with the last couple of releases where some time was spent working on VaM2. For those not already familiar with this, VaM2 will bring many improvements to VaM. Just some of the planned features and improvements:

• New physics system, with the main goal of vastly improved performance. The primary performance bottleneck in VaM today is physics.
• Improved soft-body physics. Both genders. More areas. More realistic movement.
• Improved skin collision. Both genders. More accuracy.
• New dynamic UI system that will be mod-able and perform better.
• Improved parameter system. Built-in filtering for both searching and saving. Improved UI integration.
• New animation system. This will be a hybrid of motion-capture and keyframe animation systems with full editing capability.
• New rendering system based on Unity's new HDRP (High-Definition Render Pipeline), including fully user-controllable post-process effects (depth-of-field, bloom, etc.)

so:

1. physics system is part of Unity, no work required, that's part of Unity
2. soft-body, not done, planned for beta2 (after beta 1.2, beta 1.3, beta 1.x basic funnctionalities)
3. skin collision, not done, planned for beta2 (after beta 1.2, beta 1.3, beta 1.x basic funnctionalities)
4. dynamic UI, not done, planned for beta1.x (after beta1.2, beta 1.3)
5. improved parameter, improved UI, not done, worst UI in games history
6. animation system not done, planned for betax (after beta1.2, beta 1.3, beta2, betaX clothing, betaX hair)
7. new rendering system, no work required, that's part of Unity


if this is after 6 and half years........ oh boy

While true that physics are a part of the engine (no shit sherlock), that statement is wildly inaccurate. No excuse for delaying, but rigid bodies aren't plug and play

I see, I'll look through it, see if I can't figure out a way to make it work with unreal. Probably gonna be a while though.

You're thinking about other things (body,hair, cloth physics), but okay:

1. physics system, no work required, that's part of Unity NOT DONE after 6 and half years.. planned for beta2 (after beta 1.2, beta 1.3, beta 1.x basic functionalities)

Happy? how is that any better......

 

[lol internet]

Yeah, it's pretty easy, i've just made VAM3 on UnrealEngine5 because everything was plug and play, bye losers!!

 

[Dingickso]

I wish cloning was already publicly possible. Imagine MeshedVR with a thousand clones. By 2030 we would have VAM 69, and we would all be very happy about it

how to use this thing and how to play scene ????

 

[theMickey_]

how to use this thing and how to play scene ????

This is way to complex to explain it in a single post, so I'd suggest you go on YouTube and search for "virt-a-mate beginner tutorial" and start there. There's a couple of good tutorials out there, and although some are from a couple of years ago, the main features are still working the same.

New to VAM. Should I download VAM1 or VAM 2? kinda confused as a beginner

1. 2 is in pre beta stage atm and not much you can do.

 

[kretos]

x360x is right...
I've waited for VAM2 but now... I don't believe in it. Too slow, same approach as before (basic functionality - rest for modders). I prefer to play other games with stories now instead of waiting to load simple fuck loop which bores you after 30 seconds...
VAM graphics became heavily outdated after AI came out. It's easier and much faster to get nice pictures with AI generators if you're into pictures. And VAM animations are way too much time consuming for the result. That's why 95% of scenes are so simple, so generic. There's no "framework" to build sth bigger. Once I've counted clicks required to play single sound - I don't remember the value but it was ridiculously high.

God I feel this. I've wasted so much fucking time in VAM. I've built amazing things, but if I add up all the time I've been in there, I don't want to think about it.

All because of addiction and a fucking Dev that never got their shit together.

Can you recommend a decent AI generator? Please

I'm using comfyui with different models. For cartoons - Pony models or Illoustrious. For realistic - SDXL. Use DMD2 models or DMD2 lora if you can sacrifice a little quality for insane speed. The bad thing - all those models can have wrong eyes or hands - try different models or you will have to use refiners. Look at civitai.

Hint:
There are a lot of pictues on civitai in png format - you have to download them using the <arrow down> icon - png have metadata - the whole flow written inside - just drag and drop the picture on comfyui gui and you will get original settings someone used.

Models I like:
mopMixtureOfPerverts_v51NonDMD but with DMD2 lora
vanguardMixIllusxl

Below mopMixtureOfPerverts with DMD2 lora - the lora gives the speed and also change the style of the model to the one that I like very much:

too bad Civitai is now a pay2use site, cant make any NSFW content without paying.
