    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

    Like everyone else I try to be very respectful of what I am including and releasing. I match the overall licensing up back to back with the most restrictive licensing included in the package. There is no way to recover my time or costs. I have a scene I am about to release that even if I...

    Lack of Jewelry?

    lol, AWWalker, dude, you can laugh and I don't blame you! Understand that the first time I ever saw, installed, used, or even really acknowledged the existence of Blender, Unity, or anything like this was just before this thread. I love that I can stay in my lane now that more real talented...

    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...

    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.

    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……..

    Hi God, I want a Teslabot that looks like Miscreated's Freya... Can you make that happen?!!! ;) All-in-one morphs have their purpose. I tend 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...

    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!)

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

    Instead of launching Virtual Desktop, then Steam VR, then opening VAM in Steam it seems to work much much better if you just create a Bat file on your desktop and execute it inside Virtual Desktop by double clicking it using your controller. The batch file should contain: "C:\Program...

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

    It depends, in more complex scenes mid 20's. With very simple scenes around 50-60 or higher. I have Render Scale set to 1.25-1.5 depending on the scene and also change the "Physics Update Cap" depending upon the FPS I get. Lights make a huge difference, I try to stick with two or modify scenes...

    Error and Messages Log Popup

    lol, yes, that would make logical sense :) I was hoping I missed a setting so that I can mute it for a time, especially when I already know the errors being thrown. I love the combination of Glance and your gaze however I use Realgaze for testing as it is extremely fast to setup and get running...

    Error and Messages Log Popup

    Is there a setting to mute the error log popup when the UI is up? I don't think I had this issue before or perhaps I am just now really noticing it but the error/message log strip that pops up next to the UI sometimes goes away and sometimes does not. It is a bit annoying in VR when trying to...

    Struggling

    Yeah, there is a *steep* learning curve. Are you using the standard built in animation tools or Timeline? If you arent using Timeline I would suggest learning that and then start learning how to weave other plugins in like Logic Bricks which is where I am at now. For Timeline, I am not sure this...
