(Feature Highlight) VaM2 Addon Kit and Character Model System
Added 2024-08-31 20:49:43 +0000 UTCThe VaM2 Addon Kit and Character Model System provides powerful tools to simplify and accelerate the time it takes to import and create character models in Unity for use in VaM2. Here are some of the highlights:
Replaces 100s of steps that would normally take days or weeks of manual work with a short set of steps that only take minutes.
Imports 3 levels of mesh detail (base, HD 4X, HD 16X) to allow high-definition models to work.
Creates a level-of-detail (LOD) system to allow automatic and seamless switching of the 3 mesh detail levels based on render distance for maximum performance.
Fixes all the issues with importing HD models and morphs from Daz3d, like incomplete skinning data and bone orientation issues.
Imports and automatically handles bone-driven blend shapes (a.k.a. joint-controlled morphs or JCMs) based on joint rotations.
Automatically creates a physics rig for the model using provided templates. This system saves days or even weeks of work. The system sets up 100s physics components and parameters automatically and provides an easy-to-use interface to easily tweak when needed. This system also allows adding physics to grafted items like tails, wings, and ears.
Provides tools to aid with texture and material import.
The Demo video is a longer video that shows off everything listed above. If you want to just see what is possible, skip to the Showcase video.
The Showcase video is a short video that shows off just a few of the possibilities that can be created with the VaM2 Addon Kit.
With the VaM2 Addon Kit, the possibilities for character models are endless.
The VaM2 Addon Kit and VaM2 Beta1 will release before the end of 2024.
Thank you for you support, and looking forward to a new era with VaM2!

2025-02-19 13:13:06 +0000 UTCHow many years does it take to get to the center of a vam2sicle?

2025-02-11 04:36:54 +0000 UTCVaM isn't a game. VaM is an experience. A slow, WTF experience that will make you wonder why you experience things :D

2024-12-08 08:02:59 +0000 UTCVaM2 'betas' were mentioned earlier this year. Will there be multiple betas in December 2024?

2024-12-08 07:39:43 +0000 UTCgo to the page called: downloading and installing VaM, scoll to the page titled keys, and you'll find a link for the 3 different codes needed for you to play the game.

2024-12-05 00:59:11 +0000 UTCSo I joined (Payed) Thinking I would get a key VAM is asking for in the downloaded and Launched interface... Can not find a key anywhere.

2024-11-26 06:45:29 +0000 UTCWill this work with Daz3D G8 , G8.1 and/or G9? Can you say at least what your demo videos were made and tested with? Edit: I see now on the in-text video its done with G8

2024-09-28 00:21:38 +0000 UTCA query that should take like max 2 seconds on an old computer take like hours, I only have like 22000 files in Addonpackages and thats only a week of testing, how is the database handling this, feels like a flat recursive enumeration and not really effective, I have a computer with a ryzen 9 7945HX and a nvidia 4090/24 gpu

2024-09-06 21:30:29 +0000 UTCHub2 will come out sometime after the 1st beta. I don't have an exact date yet. The old addons from VaM1 will not be compatible.
Meshed VR
2024-09-06 21:02:47 +0000 UTCWhen will the community addon website for VAM 2 come out? will it be compatible with the old model files from VAM1?

2024-09-06 01:22:57 +0000 UTCAlright thanks very much for a response to my question makes perfect sense to me. The release is much more important than the showoff videos. Super excited to try out Vam 2 later this year.

2024-09-02 12:36:23 +0000 UTCI should mention again that I'm very active on the #vam2 channel on our Discord. I frequently post there with mini updates and sometimes screenshots.

2024-09-02 11:33:47 +0000 UTCI do plan to have a couple more "show-off" posts before the beta release, but making these posts does take away time from developing VaM. I spent many days working on this one. I have promised the VaM2 Addon Kit and Beta1 release before the end of 2024, and that is drawing near, so I need to put a lot of focus on that to make sure we hit that goal. So I'm not going to do that many updates due to time constraints.

2024-09-02 11:32:49 +0000 UTCYes
Meshed VR
2024-09-02 11:30:12 +0000 UTCThis looks incredible! Been waiting for some news for Vam 2 to show up on the Patreon again easily support to see the wips. Any chance we will get more news later this month or beginning next month? Been really quiet here on patreon.
Lary
2024-09-02 08:32:34 +0000 UTCLooks crazy impressive, can you scale models up and down like in VaM 1?
Goatmarch
2024-09-02 06:35:16 +0000 UTCI'm excited for it!
Alex
2024-09-01 16:47:03 +0000 UTCYes you can definitely swap models. Do keep in mind the collision will be different with different models, so you may have to adjust the scene afterwards depending on what the swap is. In-game you can also make the usual adjustments like changing morphs, skins, materials, and other elements of the appearance.
Meshed VR
2024-09-01 09:32:29 +0000 UTCThe betas will be released to all backer levels and you will get notified when it gets released in a Patreon post. The Addon Kit will be released to Creator level backers.
Meshed VR
2024-09-01 09:31:14 +0000 UTCCrossing my fingers models will still be swappable. It's great you can fuck a tentacle beast but it will suck if it becomes the norm that you can't swap a model with something more to your personal preference.
