• 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.
AutoSaver

Plugins AutoSaver

Description
AutoSaver helps you save your work on scenes by automatically saving your scene to a selected directory once every X seconds/minutes.

Credits
AcidBubbles for tons of code on GitHub under MIT, MacGruber for publishing tons of plugins I browsed through for finding specific APIs and thanks to both of them + hazmhox for helping me out in Discord to grok how scripting works.

Usage
- Add AutoSaver as a "Session Plugin" (suggestion)
- Open the Custom UI
- Click "Select Autosave Directory"
- Chose where auto saved scenes should go into (create new directory for less noise)
- Activate "Autosaving Enabled" to start saving automatically every 5 minutes

Now use VaM normally. Once every 5 minutes, your scene will be saved with a timestamp as the current filename, together with a screenshot into a new file, in the selected directory.. This does not overwrite your "main" save file, so make sure you still continue saving like you normally do.

This is just to give you something to recover from, in case VaM crashes, something happens that ruins your scene or you want to go back in time.

Known Issues
- Reopens UI if hidden when auto saving happens

Sadly my VAM crashed in a very nice scene (my fault)... now I'll not have that problem anymore, thanks for this solution!

Man... You get into the zone in making a scene, then forget to save for a few hours, change the intensity of a light to a manually-typed value... and VaM crashes.

That's how I ended up here this morning. Wish I'd have installed this sooner!

Autosaves with auto timestamps of separate files. Nice.
Will greatly help everyone who messes with scenes.

Don't tell me you never crashed without saving. I support this kind of awesome initiative. Thank you!
