    Guides Daz to Vam Guide 2025

    Daz created a confusing situation where they created "Content" and "My Library" in the folder structure. I think this was a holdover from the Genesis 1 days. All the current content from the Daz store is in Content. Only some outside vendors still use My Library. It doesn't have to be that way...

    Guides Daz to Vam Guide 2025

    Yeah, that's the one you get if you click the download button, but you have to unzip it. Do you know how to use content for Daz Studio? Most of their assets are delivered as zip files that have to be unpacked into the install folder. You can't use just the zip file.

    536 M+F Everyday Pose Presets

    It's in the meta.json. The dependencies are listed in v9, but not v8. I don't see anything in the poses that could cause this. I'd say go through Package Builder again, and pay close attention to what it's telling you. Maybe an option was checked by default, maybe you included something and...

    536 M+F Everyday Pose Presets

    IMO, pose presets should not have any dependencies. I know you like making the poses with your fave characters, but carrying along all those dependencies just for poses is not a good thing.

    VaM 1.x Dependencies cleanup

    About the only time I edit a scene json in a text editor is to force the scene to use the latest version of a plugin. I always do that in a local copy, not in the var.

    Preset question

    Custom/Clothing/Female is not the place to put modern (1.2x) clothing presets. Custom/Atom/Person/Clothing is where clothing presets go. If you consistently use the tab highlighted by CV42, it will all work.

    Scenes Onna Gaijin Bathhouse Bukkake

    Combining timeline and bodylanguage IS a massive challenge, kudos for trying so hard. I managed to break it, though. I always mod scenes I download. On some of the positions in this scene, I just disabled the timeline (stop), and enabled the BL forces. In my scenes, I use BL without TL, and...

    Scenes Onna Gaijin Bathhouse Bukkake

    Good job for a first scene! One thing I'd suggest is that at the end, the Next button should take you back to the beginning. Either that, or don't hide the BodyLanguage pose icons so users can go back to the first one, or skip around. The first pose should also reset the towel.

    VaM 1.x Performance of sounds in var file

    If you only have a handful of files, there's not much difference. When you have a dozen, it's noticeable, but not too bad. When you have several dozen, it gets painful.

    VaM 1.x Tool to remove duplicates

    For plugins, the default is to call a specific version. Deleting old versions of plugins causes all kinds of extra work and nuisance. For things like hair, clothing, Assets, even looks and scenes, it's usually safe to delete old versions. The caveat is if you save your own presets that call some...

    VaM 1.x Performance of sounds in var file

    A var is not an rar, it's a zip file, with a very specific structure. The general advice for loading multiple sounds is to put them in an assetbundle. There's info here on how to do that, but I don't know exactly where. Loading sounds from an assetbundle is way faster than loading individual files.

    Preset question

    You still didn't specify the actual folder path, or provide screenshots. Please do that. The Clothing Preset tab is in the upper left of the UI just below the Clothing tab. If you consistently use that tab, the clothing presets end up in Custom\Atom\Person\Clothing. The ones I create are always...

    Guides Daz to Vam Guide 2025

    You mean the G8 T-pose file? It's supposed to be in your Daz Studio install, shown as C:\Users\%USER%\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library\Presets\Poses. I put it in Content\People\Genesis 8 Female\Poses\T-Pose-Gen2. You have to use that pose preset in Daz Studio to make a G8 figure have their...

    VaM 1.x Dependencies cleanup

    In Package Manager, you can set an option to disable and hide warnings for missing dependencies. I do that for scenes I like, but that have dependencies I see as a waste of space. Then, I open the original scene and save a local copy without those dependencies. I get the errors when I open the...

    VaM 1.x Fixing hands on body

    The issue with physics links is that when you activate a pose and a physics link simultaneously, the bodies can twist around into very uncomfortable positions! This is due to the asynchronous way Vam does things. If a pose has a UI button applying it, clicking the button twice will usually clear...
