Life is a collection of plugins intended to essentially awake a character, let him/her come to life. Central part so far is the audio-synchronized breathing, which can be used to drive complex animations.
This is an intermediate version I want to push for free to the community to get ever...

PostMagic adds post-processing effects to VaM, partially also to VR. Some of the effects have issues or are even marked as experimental.
Before you get your hopes up, this release is identical to PostMagic v0.2, except for some necessary changes to make it work with the new VaM 1.19+ packages. I s...

These are your most essential MacGruber tools in a convenient single VAR package, this requires VaM 1.19. All plugins got their info text updated to the style I use for my all newer plugins now.
After some people essentially begged me to do it, I spend several evenings this week and the this entire Saturday on writing a tutorial on Unity AssetBundles. It ended up to be an 13 page PDF of 2700 words. Lots of pictures, obviously.
This tutorial covers:

2020-03-01 14:36:24 +0000 UTC View PostThis plugin is an attempt at an improved audio distance attenuation curve over the Unity default logarithm curve. There is also an attempt to compensate for the apparent distance differences when dealing with different camera FoV angles. To say it in simpler words: This improves how the volume decreases with distance ...

I got various requests for a walk-through of how to build a scene like the Life03 demo that featured the Breathing plugin and its Thrust driver. This presumes general knowledge on how to build scenes in VaM. I’m trying to share why I’m doing some things the way the I do, and of course it puts some detail on the B...

2020-01-30 16:48:51 +0000 UTC View PostThis plugin allows more fine control over VaM's VSync setting and as an alternative you can set a TargetFrameRate. Additionally you can make the game pause automatically when VaM you are working in other applications to reduce CPU/GPU load to almost zero.
Especially for video recordings I recommend this plugin. When you...

I spend some significant time in the recent weeks to keep improving the Breathing plugin as well as the connected DriverThrust sub-plugin, which are both part of the "Life" plugin set. This is a free maintenance release. The next release, probably in February, will include more sounds and be 2-week Early-Access again.

2019-10-23 19:01:18 +0000 UTC View PostI usually don't do requests, but is was just a super quick tool requested by Alter3go. It allows you to toggle VaM's MSAA setting by hotkey. Press L to toggle between "off" and "8x", press K to toggle twice with some delay in between. Apparently this helps making Reshade's magic work. See 2019-10-20 14:23:04 +0000 UTC View Post
