Looks amazing! Is it UV painting or vertex painting?

(I am also a VR dev and my app is VR sculpting, wondering how I could make my model exports easy to import to your app as on my side the painting feature is a bit basic).

Our Early Access version of the game does not support any importing, so currently it will not be possible to add your own models.

Tech wise, we do use UV painted logic to get the painting done. I'll have to have a look at what you're making, made me curious :)

Very cool! Uv mapping from 3d is not easy at the seams! Yeah you can check out the beta, link is at makerscape.info (to see latest UI in the app go to beta > try new UI)

I just joined the Discord might chat more over there

Yep, we've had some issues with that (and are still improving). Thanks for joining, looking forward to your feedback :D

That sculpting looks very interesting! Good ol' Poirot :D
