Animating Quill Brush Strokes like Dear Angelica
I'm interested in how to make a VR short similar to "Dear Angelica." DA was done in Quill (and it sounds like Quill was created for it originally), but that's about all I know about the process. I'm still unfamiliar with Quill, but I didn't see a way to export brush strokes in a similar way to DA. I noticed an Unreal Engine logo in the credits, but I'm unsure if that was used to produce VR experience or just the 3DOF video version. Does anyone have any guidance or a direction to point me in? My goal is to draw a few scenes, and have those scenes "draw in" similarly to Dear Angelica.Solved4.1KViews0likes14CommentsPrevent Animation reset in animation player
Hello, I was doing a forest installation with quill, and I ran into couple of problems and I hope someone may know how to prevent this. First thing what I needed is to virtual environment stay in place when the quest turns off after putting it down which makes the forest not fit or fit unproperly in the space. Is it possible somehow to prevent this from happening? and the second thing if it would be possible to prevent quest from turning off after putting it down ( rather slee) then I wouldn't run into the first problem. Thanks. Hopefully someone can help.593Views0likes0CommentsQuill Questions
Hello Everyone, I am looking for answers for a few questions that I haven't been able to find by searching here, r/Oculus and by using google. My Questions are as follows: 1 ) Is there a mirror option ( similar to the one in medium ) that allows me to paint more symmetrically? 2) Is there a way to limit the painting to a 2 dimensional plane? I tend to push and pull the controller when painting, causing my painting to render at different depths. I would like to constrain the brush to just the x / y plane and toggle the z plane when needed. 3 ) Is there an in-depth wiki or user guide. I was unable to find the color picker tool in quill until I pressed every button on both controllers and figured it out. There are other shortcuts I would like to know and an in-depth guide would be a godsend. Thanks.Solved6.1KViews0likes7CommentsI can't move a new created camera without move all the world
Hello everyone. I'm just starting out with Quill (Oculus Quest 2) and I'm having a problem when I create a new camera in the environment. I can't move it independently. I have tried, in the "transofrm" menu, to indicate that only the selected layer moves but nothing works, ¿any help?

Hi everyone! I want to try out Quill but I'm getting this error when I try to run it. I tried googling it and can't find anything. I also tried running the Oculus app as Admin, didn't seem to help. Finally, I tried manually creating the file "quillDummyFile.txt" inside of the specific folder and that did not work. Any ideas?2KViews0likes1CommentHow to set up Quest or Quest 2 to use Quill?
Hi, I'm a newbie, trying to set up a borrowed Quest from Uni with my gaming PC. I understand you can use Facebook Quill app with a Quest, either with Virtual Desktop or with Link (cable?) Can someone point me to the right direction on how to set up Quest + Link to use Quill?

Hey there, so I have trouble exporting my keyframe animation. If I select fbx (or Alembic) and check the "Export Animation" box in the exporter I get the message: "This file has transform/opacity key frames which currently can not be exported." I am having also "Export Mesh" and "Bake Transforms" selected. Anyone knowing what's happening here and how to fix it?Solved3KViews0likes1CommentQuill animation to Oculus Home
Hello, I'm just new to Quill and don't know much about 3D. However I would like to know if it is possible to create an animation in Quill, and then import it into the Oculus Home? I tried exporting the animation as .alembic in Blender, but when I export as .glb (or .gltf) there is no more animation. I have tried several tweaks found on the forums, but a lot of the posts are from older versions of Blender. Could someone help me figure out how to export animation made in Quill and convert it to .glb? Thank you in advance !1.6KViews0likes0CommentsHow do I scale objects along one axis?
Hello hello, I am new to Quill, and using it to test how it is for set building, I am a Maya, Houdini user. I am scaling elements in two ways. One is by pressing the transform button on the layer itself, and using both hands lower trigger to scale it down, another way is by selecting them within the layer and using both hands lower trigger to scale. However, both ways messes up the rotational axis. (say if I built a set to keep a flat ground) Is there a way to .. A. scale things along just one axis. B. Global scaling while not messing with the rotation. Thank you so much!2.1KViews1like1Comment
