Plugins Action List Manager (ALM) for Voxta

I've just finished my Action List Manager plugin and I'd like to share it with you. You can link actions into a tree of choices to build a consistent story. It supports triggers and multi-context - location/clothes/custom injecting into Voxta.


Instructions:

• Add the plugin to the Person atom along with Voxta and Timeline (if you want your actions to have animations)
• Define a tree of actions like the one in my routing tutorial video below.
• Add custom contexts for those actions. The general rule is that when a field is empty it does not substitute the value that already exists. It applies both to context fields and linked actions.
• Context will be constructed like so: "{{char}} is feeling shy. {{char}} is in {{user}} living room. {{char}} is wearing pink blouse and jeans"
• In Voxta plugin "On Action Trigger" call TriggerActionChange on my plugin.
• In Voxta plugin "On State Change" call TriggerStateChange on my plugin
• In Voxta plugin "On Speak Trigger" call OnTriggerSpeak on my plugin

It's best to start from the Voxta Beta scene in order to understand what's happening but in general you no longer need Timeline as an inferred action router as this plugin is doing it for you. You can still use Timeline of course but its animations can be now called automatically by linking them with the proper name (it's described in the Transition Actions video tutorial below)

The flow is like so:

LLM inferes an action -> Voxta -> OnActionTrigger -> ActionListManager -> executes triggers and changes ActionsList and Context in Voxta

If you defer the action until the character stops speaking (checkbox in the action definition), then ActionListManager memorises the action and calls it on getting the idle state update from Voxta (when character stop speaking)

As I don't have the possibility to do mocaps (yet), timeline animations for new scenes are not possible for me so I do (Pose + Synergy) patterns for idle movements. It works really good alongside Voxta.

A word of warning:

This plugin is made specifically for Voxta, which is currently a paid experience. If you want to make use of it, you need to be a patron of this initiative, which I highly encourage you to do.

If you have a hard time understanding either my plugin or Voxta just drop me a message on Discord. We can talk or even do a screen share.
