Is there any difference anyway? Between looks and apperance? If I want to save a character look, should I use the looks tab or apperance?


The main difference is that Look preset will save the atom name, but the appearance won't. Maybe using appearance preset is better then, because it won't change the name of a person if you load a custom appearance.

how can I make the plugins that I choose to be automatically loaded in all the scenes and characters that I load?

Some plugins comes as session plugins, that can be stored and always run on startup. To load plugins to all models, you most likely need a plugin such as

I installed More Bigger by Mafavam, but when I activate the plugin and move the intensity slider, the body is not modified at all, what should I do?

when I set the intensity slider of the penis controler plugin to maximum, the penis ends up with very pronounced vertices on its body, what should I do to avoid this?

I have to do this, self-humiliation in this case is a class act... I am an idiot! As a matter of fact I just made the huge mistake of downloading the whole thing, 14+GB, completely forgetting I wouldn't be able to run VAM because I have no VR device yet. I knew it, but my memory failed, something that's occurring too many times lately a sign I'm not aging well at all!

I do write this comment in the desperate attempt to get someone commenting back trying to reassure me I'm not that stoopid and tell me I can actually run VAM even without a VR sets. Ain't gonna happen, I know, but what else would be a desperate move itself if not a desperate move!?!!

You don't need a VR headset... :cautious:

So... I just figured out I need a Master Degree from MIT to use this... :cautious::rolleyes::sneaky: ... but why should I be surprised!?? Made in Unity... takes all the issues from Unity, the less intuitive Engine out there.
UI Design is not a joke, you know, it has its rules and even when you break them you still start from them. Unity itself it's like Blender... it gives you no clue of where you're supposed to look at and go to start doing your thing. The very opposite of what happens with Unreal Engine and, for example, Cinema 4D... once you get into them you always end up looking into a direction that leads you somewhere already in the first 3... 4... 5 minutes, and could spend hours doing stuff with no need of help, no need to google a single word about it. You're never lost, good sense and some logic are all you need. Well... at least that's how things worked for me.
I've spent 1 hour in VAM and I still dunno where the basic controls are, what they do and how are supposed to be handled. I didn't mean to come here and complain, I actually thought I was going to share some enthusiasm about the new toy. I can only hope somebody gives me a direction, a hint about the most valuable guide about how to use VAM without messing around , before I put a tombstone on it and get back the huge amount of space I can use better installing something else.


PS: Kudos, by the way, to whoever actually does things with VAM and to who has shared and shares so much content for it, because I can truly appreciate the efforts and the generosity, specially considering the astonishing amount of resources shared all over the place. I really hope I can change my mind and still give VAM and myself a chance. Peace!

Did you watch the tutorials on youtube? There are actual tutorials on youtube on how to use VAM.


EDIT: I've been using VAM for a few weeks now, and every time I used it I found out new stuff. There's quite a lot of things you can do, and there are a lot of things you can download in here and in the vamhub that can make your experience a lot better.

You can enjoy the game without really knowing how to work 90% of the fancy stuff under the hood. If you do decide to invest some time in it, it becomes the one porn game to rule them all, in my opinion. Just check a couple of basic tutorials for the controls and start diving into some premade scenes, when you're comfortable with the basics you can start swapping clothing/model presets in some scenes you like, then you just keep adding one aspect at a time until you're at a level you're happy with.

I would say it took me about 20 hours (not counting the ridiculous amount of time I spent finding assets and scenes! :D) of tinkering around to get to a level where I can pretty much do everything I want to do with the game. There's probably hundreds(?) of hours of premade content where all you need to do is sit and watch, maybe move the camera and click a button here or there.

1. Download a scene you like
2. Download an appearance you like
3.???
4. Profit!

Don't try to create animations and stuff at first. Just grab some content. You will need to put the .var files inside "addon packages folder". That's it. Appearances will also be scenes. You open it, go to appearance presets tab, save it. Then load one animation scene, go to appearance presets and load it.

In my signature you can find some content I liked for VAM. Maybe you will like it aswell.

I can't find it, please someone help me, trying to control character positions with the vanilla system it's horrible
Broski this is not a support group for your questions. If you want to learn about the systems you download read the instructions before you download. Having said that, the mod you are looking for is in the pose preset tab. Look for a file in there by appetitevisual (the creator of the mod) and then just load the mod.

Anyone here familiar with VaM packaging internals? I am trying to figure out how to get the version number given a var file. I cannot find the version number in the meta.json file. Instead I have to parse the version number from the file name which is something like AUTHOR.PACKAGE_NAME.VERSION.var. Is there a better way?

Hi,

Just a couple of questions, if anyone can help.

1, Have ran this a lot over the years without a problem. Decided to run it more recently and it seems that (with a creator key, to latest version updated) I dont seem to be able to run the selected scenes? It drops back to the main menu instantly, before even trying to load? Any ideas ?I'll keep reading and seeing if anything else works.

2, Is there a quicker way to unpack more than one scene for example from the package manager? Seems a bit naff to still only select 1 at a time, wait, then do the next?

No, that's the only way, and the correct way.

I dont seem to be able to run the selected scenes?
Without any more details, it'll be almost impossible to help you. What version of VaM are you using? What scene are you trying to load? Have you tried to reset all settings to "Default" before trying? Have you tried using a "clean" VaM setup with just the scene you want to load and see if it works?

Is there a quicker way to unpack more than one scene for example from the package manager?
Why do you want to unpack anything from within the package manager in the first place? You should definitely not do that, as it's not necessary at all and will make your VaM installation unmanageable.
