This update looks really promising!

As a UI/UX fan, I've always dreamed of having more flexible ways to customize the UI, but I figured that might be asking for too much, so this update is a total game-changer and a huge surprise for me.
So I'm really grateful for how you keep making our otherwise boring creative process so much fun! @hazmhox

 

[hazmhox]

Thanks Shadow!
It was bound to happen at some point being also myself a UI/UX whore

It's just a matter of time, as I have (kind of) way too much plugins to maintain, and I'm also trying to find time to have fun working on scenes. Which is too rare with the amount of standalone plugins I'm writing for each scenes haha.

But you know, one thing at the time. Also ideas pile up over time, QoL and so on. I tend to try to find meaningful things to add before rushing an update. I also make a big effort at trying to keep legacy compatibility so it requires time ^^

Ho! That might be an oversight, I fixed several situations like this, I might have missed one. You mean the background right?
Simply select the action that has the background that disappears, it will be reloaded. I'll try to find the situation where it's borked and fix it : )

More info on when this happens on your end?

Well everything disappear, background text and hide button. It happens when selecting any material, comes back if i set it to none but tbh i think it might be more related to me having made a mistake than the plugin itself i just can't figure why haha

Just selecting any material?
That's colorcorrect, that shit prevents VAMS to work at all due to transparency shenanigans : )

Yep any material, what do you mean by colorcorrect? Im still a bit lost on vam i have to say.

There's an asset called "colorcorrect" that changes the overall tone of the scene. The way it's implemented (super hacky) it prevents or can produce bugs when combined with VAMStory.
If it's not that, it's potentially something else interfering with the rendering order/UI of VAMStory.

 

[AGZXTT]

Ooooooh okay! It was loaded with the environment i used and missed it in the cua list, my bad i really tend to miss the obvious with vam, still feels overwhelming sometimes haha thanks for the help tho! i'll try to make a scene worth sharing around your plugin.

 

[hazmhox]

No worries

Hey, thanks for the idea, i've tested it too. Looks like there's indeed troubles when changing backgrounds (remove/reload) : both butons got same backgrounds images (action 0 & 1), but it mess up when clicking on the buton as you can see on the 2nd screenshot. I tried to reaload again on action 1 the images, and it makes disapearing the one from action 0 'Background Light' (screen 3) but buton 'Main light' works fine again. Seems there is something the plugin doesnt like with using same images ? Hope this helps you figure it out

It happens if you force reload the same image, but from what I had, if you simply scroll back on the action it should reload. It's a problem of the sprite being recreated (because I need to clear the cache).

You're saying by just "clicking" on it you have the problem, are you sure about that? 'coz I tested everything at least 10 times (and retested just right now on my clean VAM) and I never had that behavior. ( I'm talking in a "playback" situation without fiddling in edit mode )

Ok I found the source of my mistake, will fix that asap, I'll just add a Render Queue QoL on top before submitting.

In the meantime, the reason why it does that :

• For "Toggle Buttons", the current condition is "is there a On background". To avoid having problems :
  • For toggle buttons, add a On and a Off background, it should work properly : )
