Build the open metaverse map from the creator perspective

Twitter Spaces Notes

Intro

Jin (@dankvr): A lot of interesting/fun ways to create
Twitter Spaces wil be recorded
@raribledao Rarible Protocol DAO (Marianna?) Introduction:
- Today will focus on producing in VR and WEB XR workflow
Jin: The main drive for building on WEBXR optimizing assets for performance
- Pain points and higher friction exist when bringing creations to the web, vs bringing assets from the web to other platforms which is less difficult
- Creating for the web - possible for anyone to get involved
- Many ways to create experiences on the web
- Tried a lot of tools- some are more efficient and fun than other
- Collaborative worldbuilding will be a gamechanger
- How to make a truly unique environments?
- Multiplayer VR creation tools are the future (hangout and paint and create together)
- Picking up blender from scratch is hardmode

What tools are being used?

Sketchfab
Blender (plugin saves a lot of steps)
Unity Platter Exporter (gltf exporter)
Tilt brush
Open brush (@openbrushapp) - awesome roadmap
- Sketchfab upload

Discussion

@yinch
- WEBXR tools exist that are more fun than Blender
Jin
- #VARTISTE "the GIMP of VR"
- NEOS VR worklfows between NEOS Blender and WEBVR
- Timelapse video links- creating out a collaborative world in VR
- Creating in VR is a great way to view source
- AV/ AUDIO reactive
@yinch
- Mentioned Castle builder- an example Unity exporting to 3JS
- Closed source to open source
- Multi User Avatar Support
- WEBXR tools - Spray Space, Graffiti art utility
  - Start with a wall and you spray onto it
  - A very physical experience
  - No Undo (realistic experience)
  - Just fun to interact with
- Vartiste allows to import URL
- Closed loops are very powerful
- WEBXR creation tools could eventually be like a factory line of creation
Jin
- Castlebuilder Needle Tools- Fun audience experience
- Watching a world being built around them
@yinch
- VR streaming will be big like video streaming in the future
- VR Chat is getting close but not exactly
Jin
- VR Chat wrist chat stream hologram creates a connection from Twitch streaming to VR experiencing
@yinch
- Immersive storytelling needs are not yet a natural skill for screen designers, but bringing in more people like Live action role playing,
- OnboardXR - Twitter link
Jin
- Webaverse integrated GPT3
- Can connect to 3JS
- Seeing the code can help accelerate learning code languages
@yinch
- Codepen is a good example of viewing code and the output creation (side by side) as a learning tool
- Recreating that learning experience in VR - you can see the code and the experience at the same time
- Hoping the metaverse can be open by design so people can help produce a shareable and open ecosystem
Jin
- NEOS - viewing source through a node graph - easy to understand logic flow
- Like schematics
- Just as important as "view source" is for the web
- If there is a program that could export to different platforms
- Spoke opensource 3D editor Avatar creation platform
- Spoke has been forked to export to a number of different platforms
- Would be great if a tool like Spoke to export to a number of different platforms (like how photoshop can save to a large number of different file formats
yinch
- Is the solution being able to export to different formats? or to find an agreed upon standard?
- GLTF/GLB are good standards
- But what are the missing pieces for a cohesive standard that all platforms can support?
Jin
- Extensions discussed by a working group (missed the name)
- Currently working on an audio extension into GLTF
- Particle extensions etc are possible
- These can emerge from a making community building off of file format standards
- GLTF is still not supported by game engines like Unity
yinch
- Unreal engine builds have all the assets in the build package but won't reach communicate with external assets
- Are some of these engines being built for the metaverse designed for consoles?
- Creators in community need the right tools
- Interested in tools in "web by nature/design"
Jin
- working on a 1.0 spec for VRM
- Adoption on VRM has been wonderful for the space
- VRM benefits the ecosystem because the metadata is packed into the file itself (rights/useage)
- Useage rights are important and can be packed into VRM files directly
Marianna
- Interested in castlebuilder spacerace
Jin
- Foley (audio creation) will be important for VR experiences moving forward
yinch
- Side feature of (framevr.io) has a spectator mode
- Allows a view without a viewable avatar
- Like a zoom for WEBXR
- Used for educational purposes
- framevri.io is built for people that are less familiar with opensource quirks
- need to be aware of as early adopters- conventions are built into our thinking, but in order to reach more people it needs a visible paradigm that most people understand
Jin
- Decorating buildings/ having a collection of 3D assets
- Frame/ Hubs/ Oculus Home have assets
- Metaverse Architects will create assets that people
yinch
- As technolgoy becomes effective it will be used for what people do regularly alread, entertainment, work etc
- Why did myspace fail vs FB? What will become the metaverse?
@Steveorevo Stephen Carnum
- There will not be a singular platform that is the metaverse
- Difficulties in WEBXR - Playcanvas (powerful engine)
- native app is a huge hurdle
