that's what's bad, it doesn't load all the dependencies, which makes it useless(Browser Assist only works with vars in AddonPackages, and any var in AddonPackages will increase load time, and vam itself, but also everything within in, opening clothing, hair, morphs, etc. So it does nothing to decrease load times, just a better way of browsing existing vars.
The Var Browser will move all(except those you mark) vars to AllPackages(and can remove duplicates and corrupt vars), you will then have to use it's in game browser, which is accessible via the overlay, to load vars. When loading through this ui it will move and load all dependencies into AddongPackages. It will also do this if you load a preset you have saved from before. So it's crucial that you use the browser from the plugin, since it will keep track of dependencies. You can also use it's version of the hub, to download missing dependencies of vars you have in AllPackages.
Only problem i have with it is that if you select a var as to be always installed, it only keeps that specific var installed, and not it's dependencies, but easily fixed by always using the browser when running a fresh vam.
There's a lot of other functionality that is missing which you have in browser assist, but can get those by just refreshing after installing vars.
version of the plugin 0.15 yes it is the latest on github updated three months ago (I don't know maybe I did something wrong at first because I installed it and loaded the Vam without moving it to the folder allpackages all the variables and only then moved it and tried to load the scene (in general, two different scenes did not load with it for some reason and without it everything is fine. I'll try to install it again and try when I have time.hmm it might be a bug then, im not sure. tell me if you if you did it this way just to confirm. you are on latest version of the plugin and, a scene and its dependencies (var files) are not loaded, they are in allpackages folder. so to load the scene you open the plugins gui (not vams ui) and click on the scene. the plugin should then load all these var files scene+dependencies and the scene should load up with all intact, textures, hair, morphs etc. if not then its definitely something wrong with the plugin. on my pc when i click on the stuffs in plugins ui, everything works as expected. maybe you should ask plugin author.
once you config your most important vars to aways load, you just have to choose wich ones you gona use each day.that's what's bad, it doesn't load all the dependencies, which makes it useless(
oh and I didn't click delete all variables(( could that have played a role?once you config your most important vars to aways load, you just have to choose wich ones you gona use each day.
The problem is some creators don't declare the correct dependencys and you have to search for them. If the dependency is declared and youre using the plugin UI, than it should work. Without knowing the scene, is hard to give any advice.
And before using you should click to uninstall all vars so that the plugin moves everything to the all packages folder.

Is it only VR playable or is the desktop version available?C91927
vr and desktopIs it only VR playable or is the desktop version available?
its because appearance presets are not same as scenes, they are both different things. a Look you downloaded from vamhub can have a few things, a scene, or an appearance preset or both.Please just tell me if I'm doing it right:
- whenever I download a scenes or looks pack, I dump them into my AddonPackages dir, sometimes just in the root, sometimes in some subfolders (with sub-sub folders) to try to keep things organized and have a quick way to delete a pack if I don't like it.
- I launch VAM and scan for missing dependencies and download them, using the built in
- then check for updates, again using the built in function
- on to the scene browser, I can filter for authors in the top right corner, usually no issues here
- from within the scene, I open the edit menu (U -> E) and after selecting the correct asset person, I load the look I want to use (Appearence presets -> Select existing)
here's what the problem lies: for some reason I have a very hard time accessing all the looks that are in the var directory. If I chose the "flatten" view in the green "shortcuts" pan on the left several are missing, and even using the creator filter only shows less results for the creators. Even the creator list itself is shorter than it should be.
Putting a serch string in the top right corner of the right pane (same as in the scene browser) sometimes also yelds no results or only a few.
This is driving me nuts, any hint will be much appreciated!
Thanks for the clarification, makes sense. The funny thing is that I struggle to see all the looks too... I'm not talking about scenes, presets or such, but "looks var" downloaded as such from here, that should contain the model only. I have the file, but doesn't show up.its because appearance presets are not same as scenes, they are both different things. a Look you downloaded from vamhub can have a few things, a scene, or an appearance preset or both.
the author could be lazy and just include scene only. the scene will have the look and everything, but if you actually want to load this same look in other scenes you have to create an appearance preset yourself. sometimes authors also include appearance preset with the scene, those are the ones you saw earlier.
Check the content of the file then (the *.var file it's just a ZIP archive, which can be opened). If it contains...I have the file, but doesn't show up.

Oh thanks. Just started playing it. How to add animations to the scenes? I can't seem to make head or tail out of the Animation optionvr and desktop
here are plugins for animation - pose manager and auto thruster are suitable for beginners to make quick animation, timeline is for more advanced users)Oh thanks. Just started playing it. How to add animations to the scenes? I can't seem to make head or tail out of the Animation option
If you create the scene yourself, then I gave you links to plugins above. If you are a beginner, then for now I advise you to download a couple of scenes from the hub from other users and see how it works! At the same time, the authors with most of their plugins provide a demo scene so that the user can see how the plugin works) You can download someone else's scene but replace the characters in it with your own, the main thing is to look at the character's name should be "person" if in the scene it is called differently, rename it to person by clicking on the name)Oh thanks.
