So I decided to take the plunge and try FasterVaM.
Yesterday I backed up my folder, did the core check, and then installed GoldenPack2.8.0-Pesadilla. I added the plugin as a session plugin to default, saved the scene, and reloaded. For a handful of hours I noticed noticeably faster load times an all variety of scenes. Combined with openvr_fsr_1.2, I noticed a fast, smooth, and stable VaM.
....until today. After changing nothing (that I could tell, I only saved a few other scenes, etc... no runtime errors or anything last time I closed the program yesterday), VaM became unstable, vars are "missing" despite being clearly in AddonPackages, and IF a scene loads without crashing, the models are basic G2 with no textures or morphs...
I repaired the core, removed the golden pack, and removed the plugin from the default scene. At this point, VaM appears to be stable again and everything seems to be loading fine. When I get the chance, I will try to reinstall the golden pack and see if the same issue occurs (and I'll try to pay more attention to errors, etc).
