In case anyone else is having trouble connecting their device. (Lovense Max 2 in my case)
. Install the latest version of VaMSync
https://github.com/intiface/VaMSync
. Download and extract the contents of buttplug_rs_ffi-lib-win-x64 overwriting any existing files in the VaMSync folder
https://github.com/buttplugio/buttplug-rs-ffi/releases/tag/core-2.0.4
. Start VaMSync and select your toy. If no toy appears. check the Logs tab.
. After connecting your toy, start up VaM
. Load up your scene, add this plugin to the session plugins and click "Start Udp/Launch" with VamLaunch selected.
Follow the instructions in the "Installation" part and the "Troubleshooting and Connecting" part.
Only install the VaMSync server software from the external site, nothing more! Also make sure your device is compatible with the VaMSync and have updated firmware if required.
You need a computer with Bluetooth, installed drivers, Bluetooth enabled in Windows, your device paired in Windows and possible the VaMSync server permissions to use Bluetooth. Plenty of information online how to do this. Otherwise the VaMSync server can't find your device. I can't help you with this as you must do it.
Don't forget to click "Start Udp/Launch" afterwards.
Verify that the "Current Axis Input" is moving in scenes at all.
