We launched VR Sharing this week, a new feature that lets you share and remix Mindshow files with your Steam friends! Want to try it out? Add Mindshow as a friend and we’ll remix one of your shows!
VR sharing with fellow Mindshow creators is also a fun way to get to know the community. Join the official Mindshow Steam Group to add Steam friends easily from the group page, get access to our YouTube Best Practices Guide, and chat about all things Mindshow!
Finally, you can reply to the post in our Steam forums dedicated to finding and adding Steam friends. Feel free to introduce yourself – we'll update the main post with your username so that people can find you easily and know you're ready to VR share.
We're super excited to see what you create using VR Sharing. Have fun!
Mindshow Astronauts got a sneak peek, and now we're thrilled to roll out VR Sharing to all Mindshow players! VR Sharing lets you share and remix shows from inside the headset. Now you can collaborate with your friends on Steam by passing shows back and forth!
2. Hop into Mindshow and create a new show, leaving some space for your friend to add their part.
3. When you’re done, select the yellow Settings icon on the Hand Menu and click Share. Give your show a name, and it’ll be uploaded to the Feed for your friends to remix and share back!
