Thanks
Thanks for testing i will look into it. Is the exception all you got in the log file or its an ingame exception message?
It was an in-game error message.
Ok if you do var offloading then there is noting to build the cache. So ya it would make no difference.About 9k vars. 75sec warm boot with and without leancore.
Made no difference for me. Maybe because I'm already running BrowserAssist with var offloading ?
Still, I appreaciate the effort to make VAM start faster
but like in theory leancore should make offloading obsolete and give it the same heap error resistance, right ? So no more feeding AddonPackages with 1k vars per boot if BrowserAssists var management should fail. That would be awesome.
Yes, thats the whole idea. Offloading becomes obsolete. Cache build is offloaded to leancore to run on multiple cores and morphs are only loaded when actively needed. You can try disabling var offloading from browserassist and check the results and share them. That would be a gret test.
You can bump of the core 8 or more to make the caching through lean core faster. Send me the bepinex log to see whats going on if you can so i can optimise it further.
I am sorry didnt see your message. Do you mean mid game the var rescan is not working or even if you have added the var game is not recognising the var with leancore enabled?Ryzen 7 9800X3D - MSI RTX 5080 Shadow 16GB VRAM - 64GB RAM
No plugin, empty default scene no person atom - load time : 2 min 38 sec
No plugin, load 1st person atom in empty scene - load time : 1 min 52 sec
With plugin, empty default scene no person atom - load time : 31 sec

This is huge.
Thank you for this black magic. Load times were dreadful, I'd usually start VAM and go out for a smoke because it took so long.Current VAM folder size : 791GB - I know, I have a problem
(I have another 100GB of old content archived just to skim down load times already.)
361GB of addon packages
1.43GB of morphs ~30,000 files
146GB of clothing - ~110,000 files
3.96GB of hair - ~31,000 files
I would love to clean up my VAM folder, but it's beyond too late.
Every creator likes to put their loose files scattered everywhere, textures in particular.
I've been a VAM user since around 2019 and have some super old stuff from Reddit and other sources that do not exist anymore.
Deleting everything and starting over would almost be a crime.
Noticing an issue, perhaps a limitation.
If I load a new look, and I'm missing a hair dependency, normally I would drop the loose files into the base folder, then use the "rescan files" button which will refresh the loose files.
This allows me to reload the look or scene and the problem will be fixed.
This function is not working now. Guessing this has to do with how the cache system works, it's not updating after the game is booted.
Your numbers are exactly what i wanted hear!! And it what leancore is designed to do. The more vars you have the more drastic time reduction you will notice with leancore. Happy for you mate. And for the rescan please elaborate a bit on the issue and may be how to reproduce it so that i can look into it.Ryzen 7 9800X3D - MSI RTX 5080 Shadow 16GB VRAM - 64GB RAM

Load a new character, doesn't matter - appearance preset, load scene, load look, etc.
Ah ok. So you have offloaded the var package to a custom folder. Leancore main philosophy is to take cache build and scan from vam and do it outside of vam bec vam native cache build is just not cutting it anymore. That might conflict with having a custom var folder. What plugin are you using to hot load hair and clothing from a custom folder?
.
I think you misunderstand. The base game "custom" folder, nothing special about it, no plugin required.Ah ok. So you have offloaded the var package to a custom folder.

And like you said, since we have optimized load time, might as well just drop in everything into addonpackages folder and restart vam
Ok i get it now. Thanks for clarifying. I will check it out and release a update if i can reproduce and mitigate the issue.
