1.17.0.2 Patch Released
Added 2019-05-25 00:48:35 +0000 UTCJust run VaM_Updater.exe found in your install folder to update. Click the Update to 1.17.0.2 and the update will start. You will have to re-enter your keys after patching. I'll fix future VaM_Updater.exe to not overwrite the keys. Enjoy!
Release Notes
Features:
- Added new Sim Texture Template creation to Clothing Creator. Regular UV template texture outputs with white background and white lines. Sim UV template texture outputs with black background with blue lines. This allows painting red directly on the template texture without having to bother with another layer. The sim ignores the black background and blue lines.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed issue with sim clothing style state not restoring properly
- Fixed issue with Leap Motion initialization causing large offsets
- Fixed issue with creator name not getting reset properly in clothing creator when loading a new item or clearing
- Fixed issue with material unloading on shared material (fixes female1 missing eyelashes and a couple of other cases of this issue)
- Fixed issue with double entry when browsing for directory path
- Fixed issue with non-existent suggested path causing file/directory browser to error and display empty content
Tweaks:
- Clothing creator: disable creator name text entry after import. This is because import places textures in directory with the creator name in it. This is to avoid confusion and splitting the item into multiple directories
- Added a few shaders to always include list as requested to fix a plugin. 1.17 broke this plugin due to all shaders being moved to assetbundle
- Cap desktop framerate to 300. Prevents GPU churn on empty scene and during startup. In some cases the extreme fps (1000+) could cause the app to hang

Is a logs/patch.log file created? If so, please send to me. It might have a clue what is happening.

2019-06-02 23:35:22 +0000 UTCJust tried the new updater from 1.17.0.4.. It does the same thing, nothing but creates the *dll I mentioned above^ in the Vam install folder where the .exe file is.. I'll keep checking back. thx..

2019-06-02 17:22:47 +0000 UTCI did everything AK420 and Meshed VR ask me^, the updater just creates a file named "MHLab.PATCH.dll" in the Main Install folder [..\VaM_Release1.17\].. I used a fresh unzip with 7z, without any other stuff from 1.16, it's in it's own folder and everything I run that needs admin priv's, I create a shortcut and check box for "Run with Admin Priv's" or I run under Admin Priv's. Tried everything that I can think of, hence the reason I'm here :P . Anyways, if anyone finds a fix or thinks of something else to try, I'll check back regularly. Thx..

2019-06-02 17:05:36 +0000 UTCDid you extract both the .exe and the config file from the zip to the install folder? If config is missing it won't be able to install.

2019-05-29 02:05:35 +0000 UTCThis may be a silly question, but, did you run the updater with admin privs?

2019-05-28 17:22:29 +0000 UTCSorry hit the "enterkey" hahaha anyways, I was wondering if there is away to just download the patches and install them myself? Or a fix would be nice too, either or, I'd like to get the latest 1.17.02 patch. Any help would be very appreciated, thx..

2019-05-28 13:46:04 +0000 UTCI followed all instruction on the "updater" I installed 1.17 all to its own folder, the updater fails, it just creates a file named MHLab.PATCH.dll, never no screen popup like before, nothing. So I downloaded the 1,17 updater from where I got the full download of 1.17 and tried it only to get the same result.

2019-05-28 07:32:47 +0000 UTCYou want some of his leftover koolaid?
2019-05-28 07:32:17 +0000 UTCYou can complain the update took too long. Or you can complain not enough time was spent testing to catch all the bugs. To complain about both is basically saying "You took too long and should have taken longer".

2019-05-28 04:39:17 +0000 UTCI don't think Patreon offers the option for annual subscriptions yet.

2019-05-28 04:37:28 +0000 UTCWow this is awesome
2019-05-28 00:29:48 +0000 UTCWhy not offer a year long access level patreon? This way I don't need to constantly go get new gift/debit cards and fight with this system for weeks to get it to accept the new card. Yes I could use my bank card but I don't like to use that for online things especially Patreon which has weak security.
2019-05-27 17:58:04 +0000 UTCAs far as i Know you can't.... I've tried also for awhile now even in previous releases. Theres also no info on it. Honestly im not even sure why it gives the animatable option next to it since it does nothing anyway.......

2019-05-27 04:07:52 +0000 UTCIf you subscribe, you will continue to be billed each month until you unsubscribe. But VaM is not a subscription service. Rather, your subscription gives you access to the new versions as they are released. Any version you have a key to will continue to work forever, whether you are subscribed or not. If money is tight, you might choose to resubscribe every few months to get a new version, then cancel your subscription again. Just be aware that the program is developing quickly. Any scenes or assets released on reddit or discord that are made using a later version of the program might not work with your older version.

2019-05-26 17:46:01 +0000 UTCHi, im new here, I have a few questions: if i subscribe for a patreon(entertainer) , will this automatically subscribe again once the month expires? and if i load the community made scenes and saved them, will i still be able to access them once my patreon expires?

2019-05-26 14:18:48 +0000 UTCAs of this version I've started seeing a red capsule in mirrored surfaces indicating where the headset is. Can't see anything new i nthe options to disable it. I really hope this is a bug...

2019-05-26 02:39:07 +0000 UTCI like your new downloader a lot. It's way faster now. :)

2019-05-25 21:28:19 +0000 UTCExactly my COMPLAINT. It's not allowing me to open or save any new or old scenes. Program says that my KEY is ACCEPTED; however nothing changes in the UI. Still no load/save functionality. I've tried several times installing it as a fresh new or overwrite. Yet neither seems to work. PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP. We have projects that need to be accessed to be finished!!!

2019-05-25 01:10:02 +0000 UTCThis is 2nd patch on 1.17 which came out a few days ago. 1.17 included major new features like clothing import, presets system, and custom textures for clothing and eyes. Perhaps you missed the main 1.17 release post here? https://www.patreon.com/posts/time-for-new-1-27030445
