The Sansar elves have been busy to get you this release before we head home for the holidays!
Pop over to the download page and grab the latest version of Sansar to unlock all the goodies below and more:
- VR Layout gets more powerful than ever. From the expanded tool palette, objects can be locked, duplicated, and deleted. Objects can be scaled in VR, using the HTC Vive or Oculus Touch controllers. With the addition of multi-select support, you can rotate and move multiple objects at a time.
- Scripting begins! You’ll find two scripts in your inventory, Teleport - Local (within a scene), andTeleport - Remote (to another scene). Simply drag and drop one of these scripts onto a dynamic object, set the destination, publish your scene, and when an avatar bumps into it, away they go!
- Using your HTC Vive or Oculus Touch controllers to grab, throw, and drop objects becomes vastly smoother. Suit up in a monster avatar and play catch in VR!
- Data versioning arrives. This behind-the-scenes super feature allows us to carry forward layouts and inventory from release to release - meaning fewer headaches for creators when we release new versions of Sansar.
Although data versioning is coming in this version, this update still required us to reset the Atlas and the Store so you’ll need to republish your experiences after installing the latest version of Sansar.
We want to hear from you! We’d love to hear what you’re working on, what you’re finding awesome and/or challenging, and what you think could make Sansar even better. Please join us at Creator Preview office hours, or drop us a line via the support tool.
