Namely the pivot/ rotation is hard to move the camera to actual see the model.

Ahow many sketches are there?
Ait should use the camera info exported via the glb.
A(assuming the glb came directly from open brush)
HNo these came from tiltbrush. They’re old. You recommend I load them in open brush to re export?
Aopen brush is tilt brush essentially
Ai just can't be bothered to type both names!
A(also - who still uses tilt brush!)
HI know! But that’s what she gave me lol
Aif hosting on icosa gallery is acceptable to you both, then DM me the files
Aotherwise - you can look at the javascript that calls the viewer on a page like this: https://icosa.gallery/view/5rf3YuZfJAW
Aand copy what that does
A(we will make this easier soon - i promise. just need some kind javascript volunteers to tidy things up)
HI’ll ask her how she feels about hosting in the gallery. They’re something like 6 or 8 models. At least it’s a backup plan if I can’t get it working.
AYou can also host on Icosa as "unlisted" and embed the viewer via an iframe
Aso it looks like it's on your site
HHmm that’s good to know
H@andybak I did manage to work it out. However I did find that when trying to use a transparent background some of the shaders don't seem to like it. I tried tweaking my configuration maybe I was doing something wrong but idk. Maybe it's an issue with the shaders or a limitation of THREE.js ?
AI've kinda lost track of the whole pipeline you've got going here. Can you spell out to me in detail what's going on in this images?
A"However I did find that when trying to use a transparent background" - I'm not clear on what exactly you mean here.
MSame issue we had with Passthrough blend basically, i saw it too when trying to make an AR viewer for Icosa a couple years ago
Abut what's the image on the right?
APretty sure I've viewed most brushes in AR mode on Icosa on the Quest.
A@Hyper - remember we're mostly on UK time. If you want a realtime conversation then bear that in mind.
AYep - you were right. When I try the viewer with Open Brush stuff in AR mode I get the same. Our shaders don't work properly with AR passthrough.
@Hyper - they seem to work fine with other elements in the scene. It's just AR passthrough that doesn't work. Can you explain what you mean by " transparent background"? Transparent in relation to what? Are you overlaying a three.js on top of other elements in the page? Or are you overlaying various parts of a three.js scene?

HYes overlaying the three.js on top of other elements in the page, specifically a video feed from a camera. Setting the background to null in the scene initialization. Half the shaders don’t seem to handle the transparency properly in that situation.
AI hadn't spotted this because usually Open Brush scenes have a skybox that hides passthrough. We'll take a look but it might be a couple of weeks away.
HThat’s alright. I worked around it by having my friend change some of her models. Then it turned out the deadline has been extended a month so I thought I’d ask in the off chance the issue might be resolved and we could use her initial designs.
AIt's something I want to fix pretty soon because it affects viewing in AR. But i'm away next week so I won't be able to take a look until the week after.
AIf you know anyone who's good with WebGL - we could use some help in that area!
HUnfortunately I don’t. And I’m certainly no shader wizard or I would have tried to solve the issue myself
HMy expertise is in Unity, so C# and modeling, game design etc. Have only dabbled in JavaScript a bit.
Have done a handful of things with Unity webGL but not with webGL directly

AYou could probably do a Unity WebGL build of the sketch using the Open Brush Unity SDK
Ait would be a lot heavier than the native GLTF version however.
PHi guys, how do I import files into open brush?
AYou're in the Icosa Gallery channel. Do you mean "how do i import from Icosa Galley into Open Brush" or something else?
PHello. Yes
AWe haven't released the full integration yet. Should be ready in the next few days.
AUntil then you can just manually download and copy into your Open Brush / Media Library folder?
PDoes open blocks have fonts?
POr is there anyway I could do on a windows pc and import into Open blocks library
Asorry - those sound like 2 unrelated questions. i think i'm misunderstanding you?
Awhat are you trying to do?
PI have a project where I needed to create a model in VR. But instead of doing it in VR, is there anyway I could create 3D models on my desktop and import into open blocks vr.
AWe should probably move this discussion to #open-blocks-chat . Can you DM me an example model so I can try something? And are you using blocks via PCVR or standalone?
MWill you have a way to export Open Brush paintings into Icosa Gallery like Google Poly had?
AYes. Very soon. I'm stomping the last few bugs as we speak.
Agrab the beta if you're feeling brave. the more people testing it, the better.
Mcan you add a link to the beta? Is it on github?
