Hello guys. I haven't used VAM for a long time. Please advise.
I'm on version 1.20.77.9 (from 2022) and i'm afraid to update to 2.6.0.0
I read about some license check. Is it true? My old plugins and clothes won't stop working if I update?

I really try to like this game but I can't because of the poor performance. Ok, my GPU is not the best, it's only a 2080 rtx but playing this game in VR has been a pain in the ass lately.
1. Use givemefps plugin: tweak hair multiplier and hair curve to about 16, and increase hair width until it looks good
2. Use the CPU performance patch:
3. Use Virtual Desktop instead of Airlink or SteamLink (set it to use ASW, Snapdragon Super Resolution)
4. Tweak the scene: delete whatever is causing lag, sometimes it's a plugin, other times it's a CUA; always make the guy bald (no need to spend precious resources rendering the guy)

I play VR with a 6700XT and the performance isn't poor. Maybe the problem is your CPU? (I use a Ryzen 5600)

Are you use soft-body & advanced physics - 5600 handle it?
PS. You can tweak hair multiplier and hair curve without givemefps - just use hair settings.

Also make sure to use "Var Browser".
Vam boots up within 15 seconds on my heavy 400GB installation and any scene takes 10-30 seconds to load.
Virtual Sweetheart takes 1-2 minutes but that scene is cluttered with hundreds of settings and plugins.
Overall fps are also better and no more lags or freezes.
When downloading from the hub for example or adding something ingame from addonpackages,
it doesnt freeze for 10-20 seconds like it always has for me before using var packer.
Best plugin for VaM IMO.

Not really my CPU too, I have a 5800 X3D. Thanks for the tips.

Do you guys also think this image poorly represents the game? The characters look uncanny with awkward poses and strange facial expressions, and the textures are off. The picture feels flat and boring, ignoring proper framing techniques, and the lighting is dull.

In my opinion, this picture fully reflects what the game provides without the participation of additional content.

I would not be asking if I didn't. Also, I am not making a request...just asking, but thank you for your time. :p
This is a major problem.

When people create looks inspired by someone or a character, they avoid mentioning the original name and use a slightly different one instead. This makes it really hard to find these lookalikes. For example:

They should at least use a tag, or say this look was inspired to look like sasha grey

Okay. I'll ask there if I can make a request without any links to assets, artist name, etc.



You are right.

It is difficult to find a specific look because they are using a different name. So, it seems easier to ask the crowd if they have seen that "looks".
That still does not excuse the fact to ignore rules.
No one would be happy if everybody would just ask for looks in the main game thread. We can lock this here then..
If you are new and got no idea, search the hub for paid looks and sort for ratings or idk to find looks that might interest you.
Then look them up in the asset threads or here VaM Downloads,

Does anybody knows what's the latest version available?
Whats the latest version available?
The latest version can be found on page 1, initial post.

Hello.

I was asking the good people here if they have seen the models that is not in the Hub, or maybe it did existed before, but got deleted just like "Riggins" stuff that you can't find in the Hub, or in Patreon anymore.

As for what I was looking for...I already scanned through the 391 pages (at time of this writing) of both paid, and free looks in the Hub, and it would seems that most of them do not exist except for Jolie from "Jackaroo" that I need to replace the hair, and body paint to make her look like "Grendel's Mother", and Rayne which I only like the outfit, but not the looks, and again need to tweak them myself.

So, it would seems that I cannot find what I was looking for in the Hub, even here. I guess they do not exist anywhere, alas.

Anyway, thank you for reponse. :p
Np.
I only use the hub for inspiration and what is available. IF I found something, I search for it here.
Tweaking around is sadly needed in Vam.
There are no good looks for alot of anime characters for example..
But with time and patience, you can get somewhere. Atleast for personal preferences and science and shit ;)

Thanks!
It's basically just the rumi look from yannek but heavily altered.
All you need to do is find morphs you can work with and mark them as favorite.

90% of the released looks I've ever loaded up are missing navel, nipple and some decent feet morphs..
When Iam gonna release a look, I want it to be top notch and some quickly ported blender model
with just CUA hair thrown on to it..
Porting a decent head of one look to another is what I mainly do for my looks and it's fairly easy.
After you can still finetune her head/face but this takes patience and time.
For porting heads, you only need the merge morph plugin.
Maybe you could create your personal magnum opus "Grendel's Mother" or Idk.
Lemme know if you need help with anything :p
