Happy Holidays from Tilt Brush (v8.0)

We’re keeping an eye out for videos uploaded to YouTube with the #TiltBrush hashtag, and will be adding some of the most impressive videos to the official GoogleVR playlist!

Tilt Brush v7: Rotate and resize, import 3D models, and more!

From marriage proposals to music videos, the content created by the Tilt Brush community continues to amaze us every day. Supporting our users is our team’s top priority, and for the past several months we’ve been actively collecting and iterating on your feedback. This is why this release, we’re particularly excited to announce we’re rolling out several of our most requested features:

Rotate and resize: You can now scale, rotate, or translate your sketches by holding down the grip buttons on both controllers. This feature enables you to make sketches that are huge in scale and to view sketches of any size, no matter what your room bounds are.

3D model import: You can now add 3D models directly into your Tilt Brush sketches. Just add an .obj to your Documents/Tilt Brush/Media Library/Models folder, and you’ll be able to import that model into your Tilt Brush sketch through the new “Media Library” panel.

High resolution snapshot mode: Now snapshots taken inside Tilt Brush have the option to output at 6x the default resolution (11,880 x 6,588 vs. 1980 x 1098). Instructions for how to setup the config can be found here.

Tiltasaurus: Tiltasaurus is a word guessing game that lets you play with your friends even if you only have one headset between you. Tiltasaurus shows you a word to paint - while you draw, your friends guess the word by watching the desktop spectator cam. When your friend guesses the right answer, swap the headset! We’ve seen a number of streamers using Tilt Brush to play word guessing games online, and we wanted to make it easier for you to do so.

Bonus feature - controller swapping: Quickly swap between left and right-handedness! Tap the bottoms of the controllers to each other at any time, and the palette and drawing controllers will switch hands.
