PLUGIN UPDATE: Alive v39 (files) (Patreon)

I addded all vam's atoms to the new UI in v39 along with thumbnails. I also added some 150 extra atoms from one of my performance-friendly assets packs. To make it work better with so many atoms, I added to the UI categories and a search filter.

When adding new atoms, you can enable the flag cursor (top right menu) and move that around. New atoms will be added at the position of the flag. You can also move and rotate existing atoms to the flag position, by going to the Scene Objects, selecting the atom that you want to move, and clicking on the Move to Flag button.

For the desktop UI I added a new mode to allow more customization. It's called floating sidebar and it's a mix of the sidebar & floating UI. It stays anchored on the screen like the sidebar UI, but the position can be customized from the classic vam plugin UI. This allows setting the UI wherever on the screen and to work better with other UIs and vam widgets.

INSTRUCTIONS

- Alive.cslist  - classic plugin. this is the plugin that you add to Person atoms that you want to be more dynamic, have expressions, move around,etc.
- Aeternum.cslist - you can add this as a session plugin and the new UI will appear appear and allow for more customization & options for the scene and the person atoms that have the Alive plugin
- Plugins/SmartObjects.cslist - [optional] can be added to any atoms and allows enabling some attributes for those objects to add interaction with Alive (for models to look at object, sit on things, etc)

On desktop, F2 toggles the UI on and off. There's also a button for that in the normal vam UI of the plugin.
In VR the UI should appear by default as a watch on the right hand. You can change the hand and the size from the UI settings.

REQUIREMENTS

Alive is a local plugin and does not connect to the internet. However it uses the web browser atom to render the UI in it, so you need web browsers enabled if you want to use the new UI.

In User preferences Security these need to be enabled: Enabled plugins, Allow Plugin Network Access, Enable Web Browsers, Allow All Sites.

If you want to keep the sites whitelist enabled, you can add this to your whitelist.json file to whitelist the UI: "Saves/PluginData/Aeternum/Ae/Html/mainmenu.html"
