PLUGIN: ALIVECORE 18

ALIVECORE 18

I had a few more features planned for this release, some requested by people here, but I had to delay them due the circumstances, I'm sorry.

IMPORTANT: if you use the morph pack and you haven't downloaded it recently (last month), I recommend downloading it again from here because it got updated and it has some extra expressions: https://www.patreon.com/posts/spqr-a2-morphs-117798013

The biggest changes in this update are new expressions, facial animations and a new menu for face effects:

ALIVECORE 18 SOURCE

I'm posting also a separate "Alivecore 18 Source". It's exactly the same as the other var, functionality wise. The only difference is that it has the source code, not the minimized code. I made this because of spiders messaging people on vamhub/vamdiscord telling them to not use my plugins.

Disclaimer for other plugin makers: feel free to copy portions but I don't recommend it, my code is a mess. I'm not a gamedev and this is the result of hundreds of experiments and features mixed together.

CHANGELOG

[OPTIONAL] MORPHS PACK

https://www.patreon.com/posts/spqr-a2-morphs-117798013

You can use the morphs pack above if you want more expressions in VAM with AliveCore. If you have this pack too, the models expressions should look better than just with the default VAM expressions which are limited.

[OPTIONAL] VOICE PACKS

AliveCore has support for voicepacks. When voice pack vars are present in your addonpackages folder and and when a voice is selected in AliveCore plugin UI, the model will speak automatically sometimes (the AutoVoice section in the plugin UI). It's also possible to trigger and queue custom voice lines with AliveCore.
