Are you trying to load a preset with a button as the trigger? I know VAM's json loaders can be really picky about file paths.

Vam uses Unity style paths so lets say you want to load a preset named aa.json that you saved in the Saves/PluginData/Chokaphi/DecalMaker/Presets/ folder

The VAM trigger would accept either as the path:

Saves/PluginData/Chokaphi/DecalMaker/Presets/aa.json
OR
Saves\\PluginData\\Chokaphi\\DecalMaker\\Presets\\aa.json



If that is not the problem can you give me a simple scene and I will see what is going wrong. Its possible I have something formatting incorrectly in the current Beta.

I’ve tested it on versions 49 and 51 — both throw the exact same error. When I save the preset and then load it directly from the plugin, it works fine. But when I try to load the preset via a button, it fails with a 'file not found' error. I was like… WTF? I’ll try to grab some screenshots. I always struggle with uploading pictures to forums, but I’ll give it a shot.

i find the error.

Error-
your error is that the plugin call for different path, he's trying to look for the preset in: /Saves/scene/aa.json
{basically, when you call the 'Load Preset File' from a button trigger on your plugin, he's looking for the preset in: /Saves/scene/}
Solved-
i entered this path instead in the preset named (thru the button): Saves\\PluginData\\Chokaphi\\DecalMaker\\Presets\\aa.json -> and it worked.
so i guess the bug is from where your plugin call the preset, maybe you should change the presets that we save with that plugin into /Saves/scene/ instead, this will instantly remove the bug...but i'm not sure this is your wanted end results, which is understanable.

i'm asking myself, how the fuck i'm playing 3 years without your plugin, he's amazing. thanks

EDIT: Looks like I have a bug that wont let a trigger reload the same preset. Will look into that.

Instead of

/Saves/scene/aa.json

Try without the leading /

Saves/scene/aa.json

I just saved a scene with a button to load a preset from Saves/scene/aa.json and it seems to work in the current release.
