- By selecting "All Flattend", you can add AppearancePresets from AddonPackages.
- (When scene loading, if AppearancePresets file not found in the 'real' folder, this plugin scans all packages to find the file.)

- By checking "Randomize When SceneLoaded", "Randomize All" is executed when the scene is loaded.
- ie, by setting to your favorite scenes, you can change the flavor every time you play.

- "Randomize All" : Create new character.
- (Repeat until your favorite.)
- Edit "Name" and "Save AppearancePresets..."
Triggerable Actions (Overview)
Weight Calculations
Additional Character Weights are actively set by user.
And, "Base weight" is computed passively from Additional Characters Weight.
Each morph value is a weighted average of all characters (including base character).
The way to determine Morph category(head,body, etc.)
Morph category is determined by whether the following names are included in the morph name.
If it doesn't match anything, it will be categorized as Other.
[Head Morphs]
[Body Morphs]
- [Variable Actions]
- (Additional Character) - Weight
- [Triggerable Actions]
- Randomize All
- Reset (to BaseCharacter)

The way to read Appearance Presets(*.vap) Directly
"Appearance Presets" file (*.vap) is JSON formatted. But it is not a strict format and cannot be parsed as JSON tree.
Therefore, it is interpreted by low-level processing, as explained in the guide below.

That's the magic of fast loading appearances.
The way to read Selectable Presets(Hair, Skin, Clothing,...) from Appearance Preset file
Achieved by partially loading Appearance Presets as Skin/Hair/Clothing Presets.
For example for ClothingPresets, it would be :
Originally, ClothingPreset can only read from the "Clothing" folder, I rewrote `storeFolderName` so that it can read "Appearance" folder.

For example for ClothingPresets, it would be :
Code:
var pm = person.GetStorableByID("ClothingPresets").GetComponentInChildren<PresetManager>();
string tmp = pm.storeFolderName;
pm.storeFolderName = "Appearance";
pm.presetName = $"{characterName}";
person.GetStorableByID("ClothingPresets").CallAction("LoadPreset");
pm.storeFolderName = tmp;Credits & Thanks to :
