That’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.

It'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.

If you know anyone who's good with WebGL - we could use some help in that area!

HyperOP•5/1/25, 2:29 PM

Unfortunately I don’t. And I’m certainly no shader wizard or I would have tried to solve the issue myself

HyperOP•5/1/25, 2:33 PM

My 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

andybak•5/1/25, 2:58 PM

You could probably do a Unity WebGL build of the sketch using the Open Brush Unity SDK

andybak•5/1/25, 2:58 PM

it would be a lot heavier than the native GLTF version however.

Hi guys, how do I import files into open brush?

PPAT Hi guys, how do I import files into open brush?

andybak•6/3/25, 12:36 PM

You're in the Icosa Gallery channel. Do you mean "how do i import from Icosa Galley into Open Brush" or something else?

PAT•6/3/25, 12:37 PM

Hello. Yes

andybak•6/3/25, 12:38 PM

We haven't released the full integration yet. Should be ready in the next few days.

andybak•6/3/25, 12:38 PM

Until then you can just manually download and copy into your Open Brush / Media Library folder?

PAT•6/3/25, 12:48 PM

Does open blocks have fonts?

PAT•6/3/25, 12:48 PM

Or is there anyway I could do on a windows pc and import into Open blocks library

andybak•6/3/25, 12:50 PM

sorry - those sound like 2 unrelated questions. i think i'm misunderstanding you?

andybak•6/3/25, 12:50 PM

what are you trying to do?

PAT•6/3/25, 12:51 PM

I 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.

andybak•6/3/25, 1:55 PM

We 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?

Will you have a way to export Open Brush paintings into Icosa Gallery like Google Poly had?

andybak•7/8/25, 6:29 PM

Yes. Very soon. I'm stomping the last few bugs as we speak.

andybak•7/8/25, 6:30 PM

grab the beta if you're feeling brave. the more people testing it, the better.

OK Great!

Hey I am very new to this but I was looking at the gallery and just wanted to ask how the embeds work?

peter•7/10/25, 3:47 AM

As I saw a work I really liked but was surprised because the work was uploaded recently when it was made 5 years ago and the artist hasnt be active on anything for what seems like a year

andybak•7/10/25, 8:34 AM

I might be misunderstanding your first question as it seems unrelated to the second bit?

peter•7/10/25, 12:25 PM

Oh I guess they are unrelated excuse me

Ppeter Oh I guess they are unrelated excuse me

andybak•7/10/25, 2:14 PM

So, can you explain in more detail how you want to use embeds? Where do you want to embed a piece of work?

peter•7/10/25, 4:13 PM

Oh wait nvm I think I understand now it uses iframes

andybak•9/17/25, 4:35 PM

Added Gaussian Splat support via the awesome SparkJS library: https://icosa.gallery/view/wf2_kgp1Ano

(also coming soon - export camera pose and sparse point clouds directly inside Open Brush ready for generating splats using any standard tool like PostShot, Brush or Lichtfeld Studio )

andybak•9/17/25, 4:38 PM

This will hopefully be a cool way to share complex Open Brush scenes in a much smaller (and less processor/GPU intensive) way.

andybak•10/8/25, 3:27 PM

Added support for .sog format compressed splats. This whole scene is only 16mb: https://icosa.gallery/view/ZTLkNjE82Ys

andybak•10/8/25, 3:28 PM

You'll be able to generate this from your Open Brush sketches which should allow viewing of scenes that would usually be too big for normal viewing.

Question about icosa gallery. I have a gallery under Karen Vanderpool but can’t login under my email and not receiving an email to reset my password. If I register a new account will it link to my work that was on poly? Can you set me up to access my older work?
