Context and Problem Statement

Find or create a VR design application offering a variety of powerful polygon mesh-based sculpting tools, suitable for both aspiring creatives and experienced 3D artists.

Describe the problem or limitation you have in your project, e.g., in free form, using two to three sentences. Consider articulating the case in the form of a question.

Currently, V-Sekai lacks a comprehensive VR design application that provides polygon mesh-based sculpting tools for users with varying levels of experience. How can we integrate such a tool to enhance the creative capabilities of our users?

Describe the proposed option and how it helps to overcome the problem or limitation

Integrate a powerful VR design application, such as Gravity Sketch, which offers a wide range of polygon mesh-based sculpting tools. This will cater to both beginners and experienced 3D artists, allowing them to create intricate designs within the V-Sekai environment.

Describe how your proposal will work with code, pseudo-code, mock-ups, or diagrams

  1. Research available VR design applications that meet the requirements.
  2. Evaluate the compatibility of the chosen application with V-Sekai.
  3. Develop an integration plan, including necessary API calls and user interface adjustments.
  4. Implement the integration, ensuring seamless functionality within V-Sekai.
  5. Test the integrated application with various user profiles to ensure usability and performance.

Positive Consequences

  • Enhanced creative capabilities for V-Sekai users.
  • Attraction of a wider user base, including experienced 3D artists.
  • Improved user satisfaction and engagement.

Negative Consequences

  • Potential increase in system requirements for V-Sekai.
  • Additional development time and resources required for integration.

Option graveyard

  • Developing a custom VR design application from scratch (time-consuming and resource-intensive).

If this enhancement will be used infrequently, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?

No, as the enhancement involves integrating a complex VR design application that cannot be achieved through a simple script workaround.

Is there a reason why this should be core and done by us?

Yes, integrating a powerful VR design application will significantly enhance the creative capabilities of V-Sekai users, making it a core feature that directly impacts user experience and satisfaction.
