1.18.0 Beta Released
🕑 Added 2019-09-21 00:36:55 +0000 UTCHi All-
Custom hair is still coming along, but it looks like it will take another week or so to complete. Rather than make you all wait, we decided to release 1.18 as is in Beta form, and will followup with 1.18.1 with custom hair and bug fixes from bugs discovered in 1.18.0 Beta. All focus will be turned on custom hair now and nothing else will be looked at other than bugs until it is completed. I know this feature has been promised for a long time, but it has been one of the most challenging to complete. Thank you for understanding. In the meantime, 1.18.0 is probably our biggest release ever, so we think you will be pleased!
Important: to get this update, you must have the latest version of the updater and choose a new beta opt-in checkbox. If you don't wish to participate in the beta, just keep running 1.17.0.6.
To get 1.18.0, just run the updater you have in your existing VaM install directory and it should update the updater if it is not latest. Then once you opt-in to the beta you should see option to download 1.18.0 version. If you don't yet have the updater or you don't see the beta check-box, you can get the latest updater HERE.
Another important note: 1.18.0 comes with reorganization of directories to pave the way for a future packaging system. 1.18.0 comes with an automatic migrator that will move files for you to their new locations and any scene or preset references you have to those old locations will be automatically fixed on load of that scene or preset. But if you decide to go back to 1.17.X versions, it will not be able to move files back or fix references back. Therefore it is recommended you make a copy of your existing install directory, and then run the updater on the new copy. Or make a back-up copy of your Saves/, Import/, Textures/, and Custom/ directories 1st, and then run the updater.

How can I get this on my oculus, I tried downloading and all I got was the zip file that needs to be unzipped and get whatever app needed? Don’t want to be paying for nothing
Noct
Does Leap motion work in Desktop mode also do I need V4 driver or V2 for leap motion to work?
ZipThump
I heard back from MeshedVR - You can only enter your code through the desktop version, then you can access the VR version.
ZipThump
Where do I enter my key? I joined as a Creator and installed 1.18.0.6 but I see nowhere to enter the code on the main screen and am limited to free content.
Meshed VR

My controllers are moving the camera movement. I'm using windows vr through steam. The please fix the automatic camera movement
finally figured out my issue, MSI Afterburner and Rivatuner quit those and the updater worked, hope that helps anyone else with the same problem
No Thanks
The morph filter is going to save so much damn time - glorious
Meshed VR
They are actually in the presets folder. Go to Appearance Presets tab on Person. Then click button to select existing. Navigate to the MVR subfolder and you will find them as Ren_*
Meshed VR
I suggest the subreddit made for this: https://www.reddit.com/r/VAMscenes/
Me too (Index/knuckles)
hi where i can download more scene pls can give me link
My controllers arent recognized in steam. everything is up to date. please help.
Samantha Cooper
Oh man... so I just spent 2 hours trying to put together an interactive scene only to go try to save it and I accidentally opened up a different scene. This needs to be fixed, Meshed. Autosaves, save warnings, whatever you need to do... I'm tempted to call it quits for the night.
You are already the third. Waiting for a response from MeshedVR.
can you please add the looks from the thumbnails of this post?
Meshed VR
I asked her for the short clips specifically so you could chain them together in infinite combinations for variety. Each clip is one breath/sound. I feel long clips are only good for 1 or 2 scenes and then they get old. I would commission long pieces if I was doing full blow scenario.
M A Hawkins
I can't get the updater to work, it creates a logs folder, config and a .dll but nothing else happens.
without words you do a wonderful job
Clayfacer
Awesome update. Thanks for the Beta.
did you find a solution how to update the game?

Where's this audio located? i cant find it, and didnt come across it anywhere (like, automatically getting loaded or whatever) either? Thx
AK420
All joking aside, this is an awesome update and I can't wait for the full release. Hopefully I will publish my new model viewing program with all the new features soon.
AK420
Every time you guys release one of these amazing updates, it makes all of my scenes obsolete. I guess that means that I will have to spend more time in cyberspace with my lovelies. How could you do this to me?
DJ
This needs a pretty high end computer to run. A phone isn't going to cut it.
mediumika
I installed the SteamVR update, and the Vive controllers are working again! I did notice that the pointing line is now in diffrerent angle!
Does this work.with Android?
Toshie27
Owe really great work, to many
Hi, i'm wondering how opting-in to the beta program ? I'm not seeing anything in the VAM updater/
Lost Hawk
Worse update ever, my game got stuck on Restoring atom when starting up. I finaly figured out that it was some morphs that prevented me from starting. It took me a lot of time to find the conflicting morphs and a lot of morphs are not working anymore. Please make updates that are compatible with all the previous options.
VitAnyaNaked
This is super cool, your efforts in developing a new staff are very visible, cool changes, corrections, now everything looks even better.

vam updater doesn't start and log says the following
I also have this movement bug
On a WMR Headset (Samsung Odyssey) I'm getting a strange movement bug. My view slowly spins and rises, this stops when I disable all navigation, but only if I disable all and not just a single option or mix of options. However, that disables teleport for me. Never encountered this in 1.17
Sapuzex
For next collaboration, plz ask pixieWillow more long sex audio... I still didn't figure out why there's so much short audio filesonly few long audio (15 sec or more) Thx :)
I had that issue too. There is a button just above the main controls -it's right in your face. Check or uncheck (cant remember). Got my hands back.
I'm unable to use male morphs on females. I click the check box to use Male morphs on females, but it doesn't work.

I don't have Vive controllers in this. Latest stable version still works ok.
Ricky
Wow!! This looks like the best update yet. I am so impressed with the Dev team's efficiency, and I really like the stuff you're focusing on. The new content is great, especially the stuff from Ren who I'm also a patron of. Can't wait to try out the UI changes and QoL improvements. And thanks for doing a beta in advance of your other work :)
Great update & great skins, ty Meshed & Ren

The VRM updater won't even open for me. When I launch Windows in Safe Mode, it gives me a fatal error.

Question: With Oculus Touch. Switching to physical hands doesn't show any hands. The blue and green balls disappear. Any reason why this is happening?
updater doesn't do anything for me (I have the latest one)

Thank you for the hard work. Tis Amazing

An absolute pleasure working with you all!

Request: Could you implement finger tracking with index controllers so they playback with recorded animation. That would be so awesome. Thanks!
Izyman69
seems as if there is a collision bug, especially around the penis. It seems to be a couple inches longer than it actually is. Tip makes contact with lips or whatever, before "actually making contact". I also noticed this bug in other areas, like moving a hand along a leg, kinda "floats" an inch or so above the skin.

Doing every Nut God's works Also any progress on Daz Gen 3 models? Or is that pushed back far
Meshed VR
clothing hasn't moved, and if you use any of the in-game import functions, it will put stuff in the right place. The things that moved were documented here: https://trello.com/c/dNN0lJlf/1328-usability-moved-directories-automatic-file-migration-tool
Aryan
exciting stuff. one question, it sais the file structure has changed and will auto fix itself. but does that change where we need to put files in the future? like any clothing i want to add, do i still drop it in custom? or does it have a new home?
Ashauryn
Thanks for all the hard work!

Right on. Looking forward to it.
