@mikeage Github releases is fine isn't it? It should show the same builds that also get uploaded to beta channels and Itch.io?
APretty sure that's the case. We just tend not to direct people there as figuring out what to download is confusing
MAbsolutely, yes. Itch can autoupdate, Steam and Oculus do auto-update, but Github is also perfectly fine. (and if you want Monoscopic, you need github)
It also requires adb/SideQuest, unlike the Oculus beta channel, so it's one more step, but if someone's familiar with it, there's no reason not to use github! That's why we have it

ASo @othervrbarry As long as you're getting them from https://github.com/icosa-gallery/open-brush/releases that should be fine. Which one did you download from that page?
AI'd guess either OpenBrush_Quest_0.4.39.apk or OpenBrush_Quest_Experimental_0.4.39.apk
A(Mikeage makes a good point though - it's quicker and easier to install from Applab so you get automatic updates)
A(but that doesn't have the experimental version - just the normal one)
OHi please may I request a screen recording of someone opening an experimental version of open brush, editing/ making a brush, and then testing it in VR? 
I totally understand if this is not possible atm!! Thank you so much
I totally understand if this is not possible atm!! Thank you so muchO
Ocan i pls ask if i wanna pick up these orange spaghetti strands and for them behave like ropes, or writhe around and stuff, would you have a suggestion about that- im not using styly so i can use code etc - like can i make the object malleable, like transform into a material that behaves like a rope/ snake or do i need to rig it first? Thank you so much!

Othis is so awesome thank you
Oi actually meant an even more beginner friendly thing as to like how to access this runtime brush editing version? but also i want to ask pls you say 'if i can just animate this [slug brush] i will have something truly repulsive'- so thats actually what im hoping to do with the spaghettis
Olike if you fling the brush it sends a wave down the brush
Obut yeah this runtime brush editing would be a great start for me re making my own brushes thanks a lot
AAre you asking for a tutorial on how to access this experimental build?
Oyes please! even a screen recording, but a tutorial would be amazing!! but assume that would take ages
AI'm not offering (yet) - I'm trying to understand what you want
AAre you just asking for yourself? i.e. you want to run the User Brushes branch and you need help?
Oofc ofc i imagine it would take ages-+ energy i have no expectations!
Oyes i would like to have one pls
Obut i mean im sure other ppl would find it useful (?)
Ahave one what? i'm still not clear
Oa tutorial
AI can help you download it. it's not hard
Ook then great!
Othanks
Awhat headset?
Ooculus quest
Aah.
Athat feature is broken on the quest
Aso you're out of luck
Ooh well atleast its not hard to access the github etc so i can request for help on here when i do that
A@Luna is going to be taking a look soon though
A@Ozymandias just to be clear - you're asking specifically about the feature where you can create custom brushes inside the app - yes?
Anot just custom brushes in general (i.e. making them in Unity)
Oim more interested in them in general
Obut when you said you had a tutorial already re the in-app editing...i mean it would be interesting to learn that too-
Obut definitely more interested in learning the full process of making a brush in unity
OI use the Quest 2 tethered, which is the rift link, so I've been using the experimental rift package, which has been fantastic so far. I couldn't go back to the regular version now
OI use the Quest 2 tethered through Rift link using the Rift experimental package
AIn which case use Lachlan's tutorial: https://lachlansleight.medium.com/customizing-tilt-brush-6e9a63bd5425
Ait's still current but in general we don't recommend making custom brushes in Unity as we will probably never support exporting them to other apps. So unless you can do that manually yourself you'll be stuck
Othanks a lot!!!!
Osorry what do you mean by other apps? do you mean making a brush and putting it into open brush to use or do you mean taking a brush and using it in a different game?
Osorry hope its ok im asking all these questions, thanks for taking the time to engage
AIf you make a custom brush using Lachlan's method, then getting it out of Open Brush is tricky
AI think getting it into Unity SDK/Toolkit is probably ok
Abut any exports to GLTF, FBX etc might be difficult
Ooh i see what u mean, you mean if i used the brush, i could not 'see' it easily in another app
