• Happy Holidays Guest!

    We want to announce that we will be working at reduced staffing for the holidays. Specifically Monday the 23rd until Jan 2nd.

    This will affect approval queue times and responses to support tickets. Please adjust your plans accordingly and enjoy yourselves this holiday season!

  • Hi Guest!

    Please be aware that we have released a critical security patch for VaM. We strongly recommend updating to version 1.22.0.7 using the VaM_Updater found in your installation folder.

    Details about the security patch can be found here.
With the click of a button you can upgrade your model's hairstyle. Choose from a collection of 48 of VamEssential's hairstyle favorites sorted in rows by black, brown, blonde and other.

VamEssentials - Hairstyles Scene Preview 1.png


Turn on the 3 Low Mirrors to see back and side views. Uncheck the boxes for "Hair" and "Low Mirrors" to hide them all and use the backdrop to take a photo for your appearance preset.

Having multiple viewing angles with the 3 mirrors allows you to fine tune the style more. Like in this example, a matching scalp was added to this hair style to better complete the look.

In the MPS Control Panel, uncheck everything under "White Room Style" and check the boxes you want under "Black Room Style" to switch the entire room to a black background. You have further added control over lighting to dim them or raise them based on your preferences, allowing you to test how a hairstyle looks under different lighting conditions for your scenes.

2K or 4K Mirror and Floor Slate Reflection Option
Based on your system specs choose from either a 2K or 4K mirror and floor reflection resolution. This only changes the mirror and floor reflection resolution and does not effect the standard resolution of the model or anything else in the scene.

Requires VaM v1.22.0.0 or newer
UIButtonImage atoms require VaM v1.22.0.0 or newer. This feature was added in a later version of VAM and if on an older version may receive errors clicking Image Buttons in scenes.

Dependencies
Before launching the scene, be sure to click Scan Hub For Missing Referenced Packages and click Download All. Scroll through the list to make sure everything downloaded and that you don't have any additional green download buttons.

Instructions
1. Switch out the default model with one of your models.
2. Click the hairstyle buttons to find one you like.
3. To save it on your model, go to your Appearance Presets tab, clear out the Preset Name box and type in the name of your model or whatever you want to call it (e.g. "Sarah v1 1") and click "Create New Preset".

I put whoever created the model at the end just so I can better find them later. I use 1 for the first, and if I have another clothing/hair appearance style, I will do:
Sarah v1 1 (VamEssentials)
Sarah v1 2 (VamEssentials)
Sarah v1 3 (VamEssentials)

If you already have a name, you can type that exact name in and click "Overwrite Preset" just to update an existing one you use.

5. To load this model back into another scene, go back to the Appearance Presets tab, click on the Select Existing button in the top left and search for the model by name to add them.

Editing/Viewing In VR
If you want to view styles on your models in VR mode but don't want to type on a keyboard and click through tabs, you can save each look as a full scene which is much faster and will save everything. Then when you get back to your desktop you can open each scene and save the preset properly with a custom Appearance Preset name and delete the scenes.

VAM Essentials Suite Component
This var package is a component in the VAM Essentials Suite. You can download and use just this scene as a standalone light version, or use all the components together in the VAM Essentials Suite available to download free here:


Licensing
I set the var to CC-BY-NC because some hair parts are CC-BY-NC and I didn't want to confuse people to think you can use any part in this commercially. There are many parts that are CC-BY that you can use commercially. You have to just save those hairstyles or parts separately in your appearance preset or if you like a style, find replacements for any part that is possibly not meeting your licensing needs. Feel free to reuse what you can based on what is allowed including my modifications for your projects however the original license allows you to do. Me listing the var as CC-BY-NC does not mean you can't use a CC-BY hairstyle in this commercially. Feel free to use them however their license allows as I am okay with you using any modifications or combinations I made commercially if the original license allows you to.


A very special thanks to the individuals that worked on and created the hair assets and to these content creators whom none of this would be possible without. Thank you so much for all your hard work in creating VAM content that others can use and enjoy.
