    Solved Eyes animated

    Instead of eyeTargetControl you can also make the Person look at an Empty atom. For that set "Eyes Look At" to "Custom" instead of "Target", that allows you to choose anything. That Empty you can then hide, if you like.

    Question Scripting Global Variables

    Every plugin has its own compilation context, it does not know the code of other plugins. However, there are a number of methods for plugins to communicate: Putting multiple MVRScript into a single plugin You can use a *.cslist to just add multiple MVRScript. They will all be in the same...

    Question How to know VAM custom classes properties and methods for scripting?

    For that specifically a look at my PowerHandles plugin (part of Essentials) may or may not help.

    Question How to know VAM custom classes properties and methods for scripting?

    Its probably best to start by looking at plugins from others. Start with something simple and work your way up. There is no VaM documentation, but you can use ILSpy to look at VaM_Data\Managed\Assembly-CSharp.dll. It allows you to look at VaM's codebase. Technically its decompiling the DLL...

    Logic "if A then B"

    Sounds like the SelectChoice brick from LogicBricks might be worth a look: https://hub.virtamate.com/resources/logicbricks.1975/

    Benchmark Result Discussion

    And yes....I know the Benchmark is not really suited anymore for current high-end PCs. The proper way to do it would be adding new, more demanding scenes and add a separate "high-end mode" that just runs those. But I don't have the time. Can't just take any existing scene, it has to be reliable...

    Benchmark Result Discussion

    @Seraphim @suprtt Please stop posting results from a modified Benchmark under "Official Benchmark". If you want to modify it...sure, change the title to "Seraphim's Benchmark" or whatever and the color for "Overall Result" should be something other than green and red, too. It should be obvious...

    Uh, the Benchmark thread? https://hub.virtamate.com/threads/benchmark-result-discussion.13131/

    Question Scripting for proper move player camera

    Assuming you are using PostMagic Depth-of-Field...it has an AutoFocus feature with does auto-adjust the FocusDistance. For that to work you need to place an 'Empty' atom into the scene and name it 'AutoFocusPoint', and attach it to a person head, animate it or whatever. Also enable "AutoFocus"...

    Plugins + Scripts PluginReloader

    Well....the obvious way would be to fix the original plugin so it does not become stuck and therefore does not need to be reloaded. A normal user never should have to reload plugins. That said, AFAIK the most reliable way to fake a plugin reload was to literally fake a click on the reload...

    Question Strange object in scene

    It might be: ...a hidden atom. There is a toggle in the Selection UI....or just press H on your keyboard to toggle hidden atoms. Hidden atoms are frequently used by experienced creators. If used right, they prevent accidental modifications and make it easier to grasp how a scene is setup. For...

    Question how remove clothing using trigger action

    Clothing presets might be what you are looking for. Just load another preset you prepared for the scene, that can be done via trigger, too. Benefit of presets is that you can change everything clothing related, not just turn on/off.

    Plugins + Scripts Life

    Life is a lot more complex than you think. The Custom-Audio tutorial might give you a better understanding why your idea won't work: https://hub.virtamate.com/resources/custom-audio-for-life-7.400/

    Question Holding objects

    Use ParentHoldLink from my Essentials package, follow the instructions in the Plugin UI precisely. When attaching to a person, make sure to NOT use the control nodes, but the proper nodes. E.g. rHand instead of rHandControl. https://hub.virtamate.com/resources/macgruber-essentials.160/ There...

    A Trigger Button Concept Needed for VAM

    All of the mentioned stuff is possible. It's just a bit of setup work. You can use LogicBricks for example to implement the logic needed. And there is a plugin for nicer looking buttons, if you want that: https://hub.virtamate.com/resources/vamcui.7760/ For complex UI it can make sense to do...
