- Lost in the Metaverse - 14 August 2018
Hi All, As you may have noticed we haven't updated 3dSunshine in quite sometime. We've been working on other projects because 3dSunshine is free, and nerds have to eat too. While we are psyched that a lot of people are interested in using 3dSunshine with their mixed reality headsets, we don't have any immediate plans to support this. Although it might be possible to change our minds. If you'd like us to support you device you can post an emotional plea here. We haven't drawn the curtain on 3dSunshine just yet. We're just not sure there is enough of a community to justify the tremendous amount of work a complex program like this takes. Thanks for your support, 3dSunshine https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F26632979%2Fa05970cc095921921fb4b03d93c54b841fec37e3.gif
- A New Update is Finally Here! - 7 December 2017
This update took far longer than we anticipated, so let me open by saying that we're sorry for making you wait. Now, let's get into the juicy stuff. In this new update you'll find: - New blocks. In the free build mode you'll find a new molecule builder kit, toy bricks, chess pieces, and character blocks. - We've redesigned the reflection tool so that it's more mathematically accurate. -We've added a mirror tool in free build mode -We added, wonder of wonders, TRANSPARENCY to the Minecraft blocks, and it looks really great -We've added a reference image viewer so you can load images from your machine to your 3dSunshine world - We condensed the block libraries. Now you can swap between different block types -We've updated to an arena style menu so you don't have to swap between several different pages Note: You will no longer be able bring structures built in Minecraft mode to freebuild m…

- Build Update 0.3.4: Many Requested Features. - 31 March 2017
Hey y'all, for this build we decided to focus on some small, but often requested little features. You'll find: - The inventory now persists across sessions. Store things in your inventory, quit, and restart.... they will still be there! - You can rotate blocks/groups while holding them by moving your thumb on the trackpad. Just pick up a block/group as before and try swiping the trackpad. You should see the block/group spin around and around. - You can clear things from the inventory using the grip button. The grip button will not only remove the block/group from the inventory, it will also empty out that inventory slot. (the trigger button continues to remove the block/group *without* emptying its slot). - Freebuild mode now remembers your bench size. When you save a freebuild scene, and then reload it, your bench setup should be remembered. (is this a feature? or have we merely fixed…

- 0.3.2 3dSunshine Update: .obj Export + Other Things - 23 February 2017
Hey y'all we've just released another build. It's small, but sweet. Here is what you can expect: - .obj export (press the menu button and look to your left -- the interface is hard to miss). Your .obj will be exported to documents/3dSunshine. Check out some of the models we've uploaded to sketchfab from Space Engineers and Minecraft. -You can clear your inventory now! No more junk. -StilesMode (this is actually from last build) to turn this on go to settings. This will let you place blocks in the air without snapping them to something else. This can take time to load, so be patient. -Some other small stuff, we made it easier to skip tutorials, fixed some of our MC textures (we plan on doing more of this), and added some helpful tips when you hover over more complicated tools.

- 3dSunshine 0.3.1 is Full of New Features! - 15 February 2017
We just pushed 0.3.1, and it's full of exciting stuff. You'll notice some small stuff: -Space Engineers blocks snap more readily - We fixed the bug that required you to have mouse focus on 3dSunshine for the program to function properly - If you're an Oculus user you'll notice nicer Touch controller models And some bigger stuff: -You can now toggle between block and group mode on the controller itself - We added block type filters and search for Space Engineers blocks And a really big thing - Dye for Space Engineers. Here are some of the ways you can use dye: Ink Pearls -You can drag an ink through an SE block, and it will change colors -You can also drag SE blocks through ink, and they will color -You can snap inks together to make structures (which you can drag through things — like making a stamp or a sword you can paint with) Color Picker -You can use the Color Picker to generate ne…

- 3dSunshine Wants to Talk to YOU! - 4 February 2017
Hey Everyone, We'd like to know how you feel about 3dSunshine, how you've been using it, what features you think it needs, and even why you didn't launch it after that first time. Feedback of all kind is super important to our development process. So, we'd love to talk to you about 3dSunshine. There are lots of ways to give us your feedback: Add us as a friend here on Steam and send us a chat message: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198217249363/ Post feedback on our steam forum: http://steamcommunity.com/app/513760/discussions/ Skype us! (seriously): user name: sunshine.blocks Email: [email protected] We recognize that there are more exciting ways to spend your time, like shooting zombies in VR, watching videos of fainting goats, and running 3 legged races, so we'd like to say thank you for giving us some minutes.
