Same here. I just started using the software and I'm having problems with player made content. I checked the text files from the hub site and downloaded all the dependencies but I can only get 1 animation scene out of 13 to work (still got a red window with a huge log of missing assets).
Unity Virt-A-Mate [v1.22.0.3] [Meshed VR]
For the newcomers with all the error messages (red) this is because people create VARs in different ways and you only need a few to really create a shit show of dependencies with their own dependencies. I'm not even including those that have dependencies to non-hub material.
Ideally a VAR would be created in a vanilla VAM and adding only the required extra bits. Some people do this (bless them), others don't but they take the time to fix any errors that would show and unneeded dependencies (bless them too), and then there's the rest.
Here's some methods to avoid a million error notices:
- Don't just drop a million things at once into AddonsPackages. If you do you'll have tons of dependencies likely and if one's a poorly-made VAR it will just be a nightmare.
- Have a fresh VAM install available to compare the base Addonpackages items with yours. Yes, you can have more than 1 VAM folder.
- Using the Hub within VAM is helpful to see what a scene needs and that you don't have.
- If a scene needs dozens of dependencies, be sure that you want it or use a copy of a fresh VAM copy to try it out before deciding it's worth it.
You can also place scenes that have a lot of dependencies or errors in a folder outside of VAM, When you want to use those just copy them back into AdddonsPackages, ignore the errors and enjoy them. Once you're done, move them back outside of VAM. For example Ruthven has amazing scenes but also a lot of dependencies, so I have them all in a folder outside of VAM and just copy them in when I want to use those scenes.
And one very important thing, backup your VAM often!

Is there any way to know that a scene or asset im downloading will properly work and has all the required assets? Or is it just a gamble every time.
Also there was one I downloaded that said "Includes all assets required" and still loaded with missing parts and errors.

I'm always surprised how cool poses you can get after you suffer through 2 hours of physics hell.

The Hub System has a very bad corrupted download check and the download queue stability is also not always perfect, so better make sure data was correctly downloaded and don't queue to much.
check for strange .var filesizes first to small are most probably failed downloads and just server messages sometimes also the content could have been deleted just before you queued it.

There's no garantee that a scene will work properly because the creator may have shared it broken, untested, or could just be a crappy scene from the start.
If you use the Hub within VAM for that scene it shows what you have and "need" to download, but it won't track dependencies for those dependencies. Quality control is done by the creator, and some are not good or don't care. Luckily when it's reviewed people point out when something is deeply broken.
Thanks.
Fortanatly I downloaded the individual scenes I already placed them in their own folders and zipped them so All I had to do was just copy the specific scene files into my ad-ons directory.
So far it has been running smooth now that I understand how to use the UI and the file formats.

Hope someone can help me out here,
Ive looked around but may have missed it. Ive gotten some mod assets but not sure where to install or put the files.
Can someone either tell me or direct me to it? Like ive said i looked around but couldnt find it, not sure if its written or not.
Thanks.

I assume most are assetname.var : those goes into your AddonPackages folder
Guys im having this really weird issue with plugins, some work but most dont, and its always a similiar error along the lines of could not find ____ something something <unknown>
It means you don't have that required asset. Check the HUB within VAM, it's a button on the toolbar, and in it there's a button to show a list of dpeendencies you don't have but are asked for.
I would like some honesty : WHO decided to close the original thread and WHY ? Could this person come here and assume his decision and its complete failure in front of the majority of user that were opposed to the closure ?
Assets are still shared everyday on the hub and on the other boards / discords ( so please stop with the "2.0 is coming so people are not doing much stuff anymore ).
Why in the world after such a complete failure on this deeply selfish decision don't you reverse and reopen the thread ?
Why don't you let people do what they want ?
Why are you acting like Cartman ?

The person that closed it was the mod for that sub. He was paid by the creators to close it.

That's a hard allegation without any evidence, it's very possible but you are now a conspiracy theorist unless the mod would tell you the truth of his logic behind it which also means you don't trust what he said about the reasons for the closure
Tough we all have to survive somehow, doesn't we
And you really belive the mod could decide this on his own behind the back of the Admin

hmm what is your main physic setup and the setup for the hair ?
show some more data like your reached physic latency as well (Performance Monitor)

Guys i think ive found a solution to create more full animals - this morph:
On another note, does anyone know how to split existing vam morphs? This morph i got changes head into animal head but also changes legs into animal legs at same time - how do i split this morph into 2 - one for head and one for legs? since leg part of this morph isnt so good i just want the head morph.
- this morph:
You must be registered to see the links
This morph changes body but not head, hands, feet (feets changed a little it seems but no biggie). Problem is that its a genesis 1 morph and i dont know if its for male or female - and we need it for both sexes right? Ive tried converting it to g2 but im a noob and failed, so if anyone knows how to put this body morph into g2 and into vam we can finally make our ZOO since we have animal morphs for head and feet (but not that many for hands). Someone please convert this and we will unlock a new chapter of research and entertainment lol (pls convert it for both female and male).

Man it looks so damn realistic animated with all those small physic details
but most importantly it not just looks realistic it feels realistic
Glute Physics are the most important to heavy and it looks strange
PS: Once this is fully perfectionized Maya Animator on here will have a hard time beating the results, once you can work with your own rig setups
