I just realized that when playing an mp4 video in VAM, the imagepanel atom only shows colored bands like this:
Has anyone tried playing a video inside VAM? (in linux of course)
Test results
UMU-proton: color bands
ProtonCachyOS: works
GE-Proton: works
Proton-EM: works
Update:
Turns out...
Your options are:
the plugin linked that is probably quite easy to get it working
the old way of making morphs which involves Blender, Daz and following multiple guides
waiting for someone to do what you want
If you say you have issues outside of VAM it's best to fix that first or else it's just going to compound with VAM.
I'm on KDE with Wayland using the proprietary nvidia-open driver. I'm not using CachyOS, but that's Arch-based and I'm on Arch, so I think things will be very similar between...
When you want to add an atom there's 2 checkboxes you can tick: select atom and focus on atom. If that's not enough, they tend to spawn close to the origin (0,0,0).
Yes! Not having to use Windows with all the bloat and spyware 😄
Thanks, but I think that there's no need for a native linux package as it runs great with proton. Running VAM on linux needs some option of Proton anyway, so those few doing that already have it.
I've been using linux to run VAM on...
For the few playing VAM or making stuff for VAM on linux, this application does work with Proton launchers.
On my test, I have some issues when using a CachyOS or GE launcher, but with UMU it works perfectly. It's the same when running VAM, but on your end it may be different.
Excellent work...
Probably there are not so many in people's hands and VAM users would be a minority in that group.
From the specs, 16 GB of RAM is subpar for VAM, let alone VAM with VR. This is a "console" PC for the livingroom, not a powerful machine for VAM users.
Come on, do some basic search on what guides exist before asking for essentially everything from zero.
Many guides here about the topic:

The VAM part is very easy:
Specific signal > trigger something in VAM
A signal can be just a keyboard keybind, super easy to do. Can even be a sound that is recognized as the input, and so on.
The question you have is about some device that is briefly mentioned with little detail and that...
As no one knows what you did or did not do in your animation, all I can share is more guides and to practice, practice, practice:

This is up to you. If both tools allow you to do what you want to do, then they're both good options.
If you go about seeing people's scenes, especially older creators (in VAM, not their age) who made scenes before Timeline was a plugin, you'll find all kinds of uses for the animation patterns...
Hairs can be used on a different skin type if you copy the files to the folder of the other sex.
e.g.
Hair for female is in Custom/Hair/Female/CreatorName/HairName/hair files
to make it usable on male, copy it to a corresponding folder but change female to male.
As they normally come in a VAR...
