    Question Housekeeping! - Could use some pointers on trimming the collection

    ok that took 30 seconds, and I'm down from 6400 vars to 2810! This is much more manageable!

    Question Housekeeping! - Could use some pointers on trimming the collection

    I will check it right now, I was proud of myself trimming 41gb and 1k files by hand but then I saw the rest still weight over 500gb : P defo gonna try that one, thank you!

    Question Housekeeping! - Could use some pointers on trimming the collection

    Hello, my collection have definetely got out of hand. My program runs super sluggish and my machine overheats like crazy from browsing the menus alone. I have thus decided to properly sit down and remove some stuff, and I might have some questions regarding what is safe to remove and what tends...

    Question Does this quest 2 passthrough trick still work ?

    Apparently it's possible to get passthrough on Valve Index, I have to research how and if it's possible to do it with VAM. Would kinda complete the experience for me...

    Another VaM alternative, Quest2 native!

    For me the lack of gameplay and sandbox nature of Vam is most appealing. I was always a big fan of character creators, I would play Soul Calibur and Tekken mostly to play dress up and posing. Vam delivers on this on unparalleled scale, the 'gameplay' to me is learning more and more tricks to...

    Anyone tried the 2.x Alpha?

    Exactly, right now I'm doing different things so I will give them more time for some more updates. As with the optimisation of current version it is not possible to throw more money at the problem to make it work smoother, I'm purposedly avoiding this new version for now, so I can enjoy current...

    Anyone tried the 2.x Alpha?

    Oh very cool, I haven't tried it yet as I was away from Vam for some time. I'm glad there even is an alpha already. I made my peace that it will take much longer to be where we want it to be. I will check it out once it gets a little more fleshed out so I won't get depressed like TToby ; D

    Question VR vs Desktop: What is the desktop community missing out on?

    I have a special plugin preset, loading it disables the crosseye effect and I can enjoy a scene. Always a bummer when it happens though

    What would you have loved to know when you started?

    Good tip, I also made a second clean copy as a part of throubleshooting the sluggishness of my client and yeah it really helped. Opting for a separate 'play version' and 'editing version' might be optimal.

    Solved 1800 Scenes

    Yes this is exactly what I'm doing. Models don't always come saved as a preset with a scene. I make those presets myself and then hide the scene.

    Solved 1800 Scenes

    Never ending struggle. I plan to cancel all my Patreon subscriptions for couple of months, and maybe also ignore new hub additions as well just so I can organise my stuff. Once I'm done extracting what I need from a scene, like a model, clothes textures and so on I toggle hide. This does not...

    Question Will i get the full release of 2.0

    I'm mostly worried that copyrighted models will get culled. Fighting games and movie characters and celebs. But then maybe not, because Skyrim is on steam with all sorts of mods. Maybe I'm mixing it with console release with highly curated mod content

    Hardware - do I need to upgrade my computer or get a new one

    Yeah we have talked hardware gains excessively here and the conclusion is well it's very mild. If you can run it right now you are not missing that much, and still have to use optimisation tricks even on a very high end rig. As long as you can load a scene and have workable FPS you are good to go.

    Release VAM 2.0 on steam? Is it possible?

    Also more curated, and we don't want that
  15. LooksHunter

    Question Will i get the full release of 2.0

    Well I'm pretty confident it will be handled the same way, Patreons get a key from their corresponding tier, with new key needed for each major update. Does not make sense to ask extra money for it, from people who already pledged decent amount of money. Its not like they can get a Steam...

    Has anyone used VR gloves for VaM?

    I have seen a YouTube video of DIY gloves with motors allowing to hold onto 3d objects, that would be a huge immersion boon for sure. You won't feel the warmth or smoothness of the skin or material, and probably no pressure on the palm and fingers but it's a step forward. If I could get gloves...

    Question VAM eats my ram

    Most of the time I make sure to let everything load first, but finger can slip, I noticed it stutters if I do that. I have to find "unload textures" button, will be very helpful! Only recently have I figured out (mostly) how to effectively play with morphs to get desired effect, so I have a few...

    Question VAM eats my ram

    My usual process is opening a new scene with new look, try a bunch of different outfits, mess with the skin, hair, morphs and so on and save it as a new preset, after I repeat this for 5-10 scenes it eventually crashes, I just churn through too much stuff too fast, and since it lingers in memory...

    VaM Hub Shop

    Monetised stuff being on Patreon would be a bigger problem if MeshedVR himself didn't have an account there. I quess creating infrastructure themselves is way too much hassle, and while I would rather have the cut from creations go to the studio rather than to Patreon, it is what it is. I keep...

    Question VAM eats my ram

    VaM keeps stuff in ram for some reason, the only thing that seems to be working is restarting it from time to time. Otherwise it will keep slowing down until it crashes, even with 34gb of ram I have to restart every like 20 minutes. I consider upgraring to 64gb of ram just to tackle this.
