reupload dude ..link down
No, it's working perfectly fine.

No dude u dont check the link u give ?
IT IS WORKING PERFECTLY FINE!

It's most probably YOU having an issue either opening the link or using the included MEGA link correctly. If people telling you it's working, then please don't "dude" them telling them they're wrong. Also: Please use the "Asset Requests" section of this forum to ask for specific looks/scenes/clothes -- as I wrote in the post right above your request. Thanks!

Please always use the "Asset Requests" section of this forum to ask for certain looks/scenes/clothes/... And, as in your case, this already has been requested (as you posted a link to that specific request), so just be patient until someone hopefully uploads it. Thanks!

Man these crashes...
Do errors increase crash chance or? i have a few scenes with errors due to missing assets. But loading a scene with no missing assets sometimes causes crashes.
Is there any known processes to working out the crashes or is everyone just living with the game crashing every 2 mins/50% of the time a scene is loaded?

I don't have any crashes of VAM at all.

If you get a lot of crashes, then you might have screwed up your installation...?! Do a fresh install of VAM (using the official updater so you only download the official files) and then transfer the *.var files form your old to the new installation "one by one" (and by that I mean one scene incl. its dependencies, then test it, then proceed with the next scene) to see which one is causing crashes.

And you also might not use VAM on a potatoe PC, because it's quite demanding :p

Rookie numbers, mine is at 260gb, I think I only ever had a CTD once or twice.
Show off.

But this is good news as its cant be a "too big" issue than aye?
So its either the errors or the content itself.

One things that annoys me is i cant seem to figure out what add-ons are loading sound files, like downloading them. I tied to disable add-ons i don't want to see if it could help with the loading crashes but didn't seem to work out.

the crashes has to do with ram. past 2 years vam has bad memory leaks. cycle through 3 scene loads and watch windows process manager show ram tap out fast. that's from recollection having 16 gigs ram and since i hadn't seen anyone even mention what they have gotta assume there's some people running 8 gigs. Just googling "vam memory leaks" pulls up many threads on the topic, and this one i see a couple people report they run into the same issues with 32 gigs. Moderator DJ chimed in suggesting making a settings change to dump unused textures.

Hmm, that could be it but i do have 32GB's.
Additionally a recent crash was while creating a character (without a save)
The game just CTD while messing with sliders. Absolute nonsense imo.

With no log or crashdump i cant know whats doing it.

EDIT:
As a test i just sat there on a character loading skin textures, the game seems to refuse to go over ~8.2GB of memory usage while i had aroudn 10GB spare beyond VAM.
After about 20 full body skins it crashed midway of loading a skin.
Dunno if this meany anything but worth noting.

VAM will eat as much ram as it can . loading textures by hand is a nightmare when you have a ton of vars with textures, also try to remove big vars such as vamx.someversion.var

Does anyone know what would be causing these weird dark shadows on certain clothing presets? It's not a huge issue, but it does affect certain outfits I've noticed. Is it a setting in game that is making it appear this way? It seems most often to be affecting clothing that is sheer or see-through. shadow_bug.png

try to remove big vars
That could be something, i have 12 vars that are over 400MB each.

After last night im thinking of just doing a full spring cleaning removing everything i dont use and working with what little i do.

Is there any baseline mods like "everyone should have this" mod? like maybe a package of "must haves"

Also whats the best method for dealing with older versions of addons? I have been disabling them. I have 10 old versiosn of timeline disabled..

EDIT: Another thing to think about is how does the game handle incomplete downloads?
Im going to assume the game can not detect or remember incomplete downloads and i see a potential for crashes to have caused corrupted downloads which in turn causes more crashes.
I have a shit net connection rn so i see this as to why i might have so many crashes, its exponential...
