    Crashing more frequently

    Apparently someone out there decided to RTFM... ?... I just reset everything and set the voltage and current limits to the manual/this post and it seems to be good. It is passing all stress tests with flying colors other than bumping the current limit. All games seem to be working fine. It...

    Crashing more frequently

    I might try that setting! Power issues are such a pain in the ass! Easy to identify usually: if it's intermittent and doesn't really make sense then something is probably getting enough power to not completely fail but not getting enough power to work properly. Finding the reason and culprit is...

    Crashing more frequently

    I forgot about this, sorry! The issue, if anyone is looking was the I9 13900k. Fix: turn off Turbo mode, tune down the power for the chip or better yet, ditch Intel... Issue: 0xc000005 access violation errors.

    Crashing more frequently

    I see some threads around VAM crashing but haven't seen one that helps so here it goes. There appears to be some sort of write issue over time when using VAM. I randomly get the generic 0x000005 Windows error more and more frequently over time. The faulting module seems to be random. Sometimes...

    Poll: Reasons for using NC licenses

    ...would VAM be without creators like Macgruber, Spacedog, Acid Bubbles, CuteSvetlana, Molmark, CheesyFX, and many many others? Their legacy will be *everything* this platform turns into and inspires in the future whether people know it or not. That, to me, is real immortality. Not a name in a...

    Lack of Jewelry?

    ...the mix with CuteSvetlana and the like, , (My lane: correlation, integration, and strategy, slam it through to see if it is possible POC stuff. **NOT** polished and finalized stuff). I really appreciate what you and some of the other creators have and continue to provide! That is what is so...

    What Quest 3 can do for VAM VR

    I spent much of yesterday playing with this and tweaking several scenes I had been working on for release. Damnit! I have hundreds of hours of work to do adding a mixed reality component now. Jesus, this might be worse than heroin. It almost scares me a little! Almost. The possibilities are...

    Meta Quest 3 with full colour 3d depth sensor passthrough will be released October 2023

    All I can say is holy shit. This is seriously NOT what I needed! ?

    How to be a successful VaM creator (financially)?

    I can only answer from my perspective as a buyer. I have quite a few paid for scenes, plugins, textures, etc but I only do so if it is something unique and really catches my interest. I tend to keep an eye on the creators that are doing regular stuff in the genre's I am interested in. If you...

    How come I never heard of VAM before :O

    Hopefully you made sure your affairs were in order and you said your goodby's! VAM is worse than crack! Beyond the obvious reasons it presents an intricate and complex puzzle with an infinite number of pieces and variations you can tweak, play with, develop, modify, and optimize while combining...

    Request for non Sexual scenes.

    I am late to this question. I agree there is a lot of potential and I would also love more meditation type scenes in general for VR. With that said, I am not sure I want humanity descending on VAM. We have what is probably one of the best communities I have seen in a very long time. Branching...

    VAM need AR for Quest2!

    Its kind of cheesy but there is a trick to kind of achieving that. If you set it to 120 FPS with a stationary boundary you can step to the edge or lean back near the boundary. This puts what VAM is rendering in the middle surrounded by wherever you are. I have considered doing a scene or two...

    Benchmark Result Discussion

    This is really sweet! I am heading out for a week but have been playing with it as I have time in Desktop mode with different things enabled and disabled. Its interesting how much the AV+Mega+VPN impact FPS. Here are two tests in Desktop mode, (running on a mounted and encrypted drive on an 3d...

    Poll: Do you use VaM mostly in VR or Non-VR mode?

    No, I did not know that!! I will check it out tonight, thank you!!!

    Poll: Do you use VaM mostly in VR or Non-VR mode?

    That and the ability to copy objects like assets or buttons without creating a temp preset. I have a mess of temp presets to clean up one day!

    Poll: Do you use VaM mostly in VR or Non-VR mode?

    Almost exclusively VR unless I am doing something that requires a lot of typing like creating several objects with triggers. Frequently I will modify those in the json file itself rather than in flat screen mode.

    What would be the PC requirement for the future VaM 2.X?

    I get sick in some games. Driving the Scarab in Elite Dangerous is the worst with the low gravity effects while bouncing and driving across moons all while swiveling your head. Also combat in fast spinning ships while swiveling your head to keep your eye on your target(s) in space is rough...

    I got blocked from making stuff and I don’t care about it, but……..

    - Open Package Builder - Add the scene json file - Click prep package - Click "Fix missing references" - Scroll through hundreds of references in "Content" to select the files you want. This list includes most of the hundreds of the individual morphs that were used. I only use a few models...

    I got blocked from making stuff and I don’t care about it, but……..

    ...to use a baseline all-in-one I created inside VAM in my scenes to make it easier to build a package. When building a package you have to checkmark *every single morph* you used which is time consuming, tedious, and annoying. There is no "check all" option and I believe it is to force us to...

    Whats your average FPS in VAM? 2 Person atom 1 CUA and your computer spec?

    You need someone smarter than me then. I don't know and don't use that method nor the Fidelity DLL. (I am paranoid when it comes to replacing DLL's with third party DLL's!)
