About This Game Neos VR is built to be like the real world, but without the pesky laws of physics! Meet your friends and coworkers no matter where they are, explore worlds created by the community and import your own models, videos, images, audio files and more, all in realtime.If you feel like it, you can grab any of the building tools and start creating (or editing) anything from an avatar, interactive object to an entire world. Neos makes no distinction between entities, everything is accessible, editable and programmable (as long as you have the permission to do so).Editing can be as simple as gluing things together, putting a material into a material gun and shooting the surfaces in the world or fiddling with particle system knobs. There’s also more advanced visual scripting,and scene inspectors for editing object and component hierarchy. Did we mention that you do all that in VR and multiplayer too? It’s like being inside a game engine!We have taken great care to build Neos to be very futureproof and versatile, no matter who you are and what your background is. It’s based on novel engine architecture designed and programmed from the ground up to give you unprecedented amount of control.You can make Neos into whatever you want it to be, focusing on what you want to do inside in VR, with Neos transparently making sure that everything part of a single virtual universe, where sharing what you made is as simple as handing it to others or sending via message.So come and become part of our amazing community, whether you want to just hang out, visualize your models, build a cool world or a silly item, or even collaborate on projects with engineers and scientists. Neos is a metaverse for all of us. 7aa9394dea Title: Neos VRGenre: Free to Play, Indie, Animation & Modeling, Design & Illustration, Education, Software Training, Utilities, Web Publishing, Early AccessDeveloper:Frooxius, SoliraxPublisher:SoliraxRelease Date: 4 May, 2018 Neos VR Download Exe File Thank you all for lighting the spark of the metaverse in 2018: Ever since I started working with virtual reality I’ve dreamed of the metaverse. A shared universe that feels like the real world at its core, but one where your only limitation is your imagination and skill, not the laws of physics.A powerful universe which would reinvent the way we build social VR experiences and unify all kinds of creations, whether they’re games, silly fun items or scientific/engineering tools and visualizations. A universe that would be general enough to let all of these coexist in the same space and that would let us build them together from within.It was an ambitious dream that I somehow got the opportunity to build thanks to help and contributions of many people. Starting with my co-founder Karel, who does his best to let me focus on building this awesome project, while he worries about everything else.Thanks to the funding and support from The Rothenberg Ventures and their awesome team (Mike Rothenberg, Tipatat Chennavasin and Dylan Flinn just to name a few) who took us into their first VR accelerator, I could focus just on that for the past four years.So I spent almost every single day laying the foundations for my vision of the metaverse, designing and building the foundational programming principles and building a brand new form of game engine and multiplayer networking from scratch just to support this ambitious idea.As time went on and I kept working on layer after layer, I began thinking if it all would really be worth the effort and if anybody would ever use it. I would watch other companies get more funding and attention, while very few knew about my project and nobody used it regularly. I would wonder if my approach would ever pay off.And now with the year 2018 over, I can happily say that it did thanks to you, our community.Despite all the ambitious ideas and visions, I never imagined we’d have community this amazing and diverse. Just as our strength was fading, you came in and brought life to this project.Your amazing creations have inspired me and others and shown all the different things you can do with Neos (many of which I didn’t even think of!). Your feedback and ideas helped shape the project and bring more new people with every update as I could focus on improving what mattered the most.Your financial support on Patreon helped us stay afloat and pay the bills, while also giving us a great deal of motivation. Your guidance of newcomers and tutorials have made it easier for new people to get started and excited. And your evangelism and word of mouth helped grow the community even more.You’re truly the best community that we could’ve ever wished for. Many of you became my friends and some we even brought onto the official team. As creator of Neos, nothing makes me more proud than seeing what others create with it and how it helps you in your life, regardless of what you do.But what I’m particularly proud of is the diversity of people and creations that I’ve seen. We got everyone from casual users, hobbyist builders, developers, to business professionals and university teachers/researchers, all within the same universe, naturally working and interacting together.It was one of the main goals of Neos, but the level of creative amplification this brought blew me away. For example several of our hobbyist creators would help the university researchers build their virtual experiments for science conferences. Or our younger users would help a professional with his UI design for particle systems and operate the camera for his tutorials, live in VR, despite being thousands of kilometers apart.We could be working on a new world and discussing serious matters one moment and whip out a game of three player chess to play together the next. And then the university researcher would make himself into a chess piece, shrink himself down and run on our board.I never expected work and fun to coexist so naturally inside of VR or for any of these things to happen so soon. But they did and they made the year 2018 the happiest one in my life so far. All the things I experienced with you in VR gave me so much energy and motivation to continue this project for years ahead and brought joy to my life that I never had before. I want you to know that I appreciate it greatly.We might not have big financial and promotional support like some other projects do right now, or a big team working on this (it’s still just me for the programming), but we do have a strong technical foundation for building inside of multiplayer VR that nothing else can rival and more importantly an incredible passionate community that can utilize this to create the most amazing things. And I believe that’s a lot more valuable going forward.There’s still a lot of hard work ahead of us, but I believe the spark of Neos has been lit and next year is going to be even more amazing as a result. I can’t wait to see what will it bring and I can’t wait to show you what I have in store.So thank you everyone very much for your support and lighting that spark. Let’s make it into a full flame this year. Let’s make 2019 the year of Neos.Your FrooxiusP.S.: Also as a small thank you, everyone who joined Neos in 2018 (or earlier!) now gets a unique spark badge for their early support.. NeosVR Beta 0.8 - massive social & usability update: Video Trailer. Announcing NeosVR beta!: Hello! This is Frooxius, creator of Neos. For the past few years I have been working on NeosVR with the goal to build the most powerful metaverse engine with a novel architecture, something that's unlike anything else out there.Today I'm very proud (and nervously excited!) to announce NeosVR Open Beta coming May 4. After building the architecture and fundamental subsystems in the alpha stage (the ugly looking one if you've seen some videos or tried it), I have put my efforts in the layer of polish and finally some proper content.Building NeosVR was hard, it was the most difficult thing I ever did. If we (my and my co-founder Karel Hulec) didn't get early support from the community and the Rothenberg Ventures, this project wouldn't exist in the first place.It's been also huge fun as Neos is a project of passion for me. But we're also a business and now we need help from you again to keep going.How can you help?. Neos VR Beta 0.7 - Full body avatars (new IK), Inventory, Mirrors, daily updates for everyone and more!: Hello guys!I’m Frooxius, developer of Neos VR and I’m happy to bring you the new 0.7 beta update. It’s different from what was originally planned, but it was certainly worth it! So what’s new?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ex0oyGuybCoNew IK system for full body avatars. Neos now features full Index controller (Knuckles) support with finger tracking for any avatar: Hello everyone!I'm happy to announce that Neos now has full Valve Index controller (previously known as Knuckles) support, with full natural finger tracking for any imported avatar. Majority of avatars should work out of the box with no setup required thanks to automatic retargeting. The system works with Touch controllers, Vive wands and Leap Motion as well, so you can test them out! If you run into any issues with your rig, let me know!Check out the system in action with a bunch of different avatars:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkqJOL5mZcwCurrent requirements for the automatic setup is a thumb with at least two fingers, each with at least two segments and proper naming (thumb, index/point, middle/mid, ring, pinky/little are accepted names) or five fingers with at least three segments each when required bone names aren't present.If your avatar doesn't fit this criteria, you can setup the system manually using this tutorial (the avatar in the video will now setup automatically, but the process is same for ones that don't):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xalOyb5XhbMIf you run into any issues you can ask at our official Discord server and you can also support the development on Patreon:[discord.gg] [patreon.com]. Announcing Neos Content Contest with $700 in prizes: Hello Neos VR Community!We're very excited to announce our first Neos Content Contest, where you can win prizes for creating cool content in Neos VR.This contest has officially started on April 7th at our second community meetup, but there is still plenty of time to join. You have until May 7th to submit your creations.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnPjr-ovXokWhat are the prizes?. NeosVR Beta 0.6.1 update: Hey guys,Frooxius, the developer of NeosVR here. It’s been roughly a month since the launch of the public beta and we’ve gotten tons of great feedback from you, seen our core community grow (especially on our Discord server[discord.gg]) and begin building awesome content in NeosVR.Today I’m happy to announce the public release of Neos Beta 0.6.1, which contains dozens of usability improvements, small features, bugfixes and tweaks, many of them based on the feedback from you and requests from our Patrons (who also get to enjoy these new features right after they’re added). You can get it for free on Steam.You can see the full list of changes below. One of the bigger changes was a complete redesign of the cloud asset management infrastructure, which is now based on reference counting, rather than original intended garbage collection.This means that your cloud storage will update nearly immediately after removing assets and your existing usage has been recalculated to exclude “official” assets (such as in the Scratchspace template). This should make it easier to manage your cloud usage.Other than that, there’s dozens of smaller additions, such as Discord integration, new materials, Standalone 360 mode. However because of no big major features, I’m keeping the 0.6.x version number, but I hope that you’ll enjoy it regardless! Community highlights
