Hey, I wanted to do a quick update on what's happening backstage... just in case you're wondering!

Well, I'm experimenting a lot right now. I may have opened the pandora box for many many more stuff to put into VAM...

I'm exploring the ability to add lots of characters into VAM scenes without crashing down your frame rate.I'm talking about posable characters... Maybe even animatable ones - painfully, I believe, but it should be doable!And not just people. Animals & monsters too! That's opening lots and lots of possibilities. Let me tell you, I'm building up a real army!

That's a lot of work to gather up the characters and experiment with them; and it's not that stable yet... After starting a scene based on this, I've encountered a major bug that has literally ruined hours of work :'(Sadly it appears that not all the characters you can see in the screenshots are working properly (most of them are not tbh): I have to filter out which ones are ok and which are not.

There are also some troubles with packaging but I believe I found a workaround. Long story short, I'm struggling a bit but that should be worth it :)

Nonetheless I hope I can achieve a decent proof of concept scene before the end of the month. At the very least, I'll share a collection of characters that you can add into any scene with minor FPS impact.

Stay tuned!

I know Androinz just released an updated scene called Night Ride that had dancing background characters that looked to have their own custom animations and placement. So if you're struggling or looking for some advice, they might be a good person to contact. Anyway, look forward to what you come up with next.

Hi, thanks for the heads up! It seems they used AXnop.732's animated characters: the same I used in "Adult Class" or "In the forest" scenes. This is a set list of characters with fixed animations. Those are awesome and I love them. But what I'm working on is using custom characters that I can pose any way I want. Not exactly the same purpose :) My troubles are with the plugin I used; which appears to be a bit buggy. I'll work with this some more: we'll see if I can deliver something shareable without absolute hassle. What you could expect if that works out: scenes populated with background characters having an appropriate pose based on the situation, characters having sex in the background, bestiality & monster sex, characters with body writing or dirty textures... All that with minor impact on performances.

Small update on this: - Good news: I've managed to have a good group of working characters and I can work with them. I'll share a collection. - Bad new: the characters cannot be animated. More precisely: I can animate them but it doesn't work anymore after reloading the scene. - Optimist news: the creator of the plugin I use has not much time for VAM, but will take a look at those bugs when they can. So hopefully it will be fixed at some point :) More details on this, for those interested: https://hub.virtamate.com/threads/xps-xnalara-model-loader.16404/page-2#post-58894
