You'll find a free paint by numbers pack of five beautiful Moss artworks on the Paint by numbers page. There's also a new feature to assist you in painting this pack and any other PBN image: the Paint within lines feature. When enabled, it masks out an area around the color you have selected, so that it's easy to paint the shapes of the PBN template. If you stray too far outside of the lines you'll still put down paint though, so no cheating!
Be sure to participate in the contest for a chance to win an MX Ink stylus and a limited edition Moss poster!
It's time for a few cool new features! Vermillion now features an eye dropper. Press and hold the former clean brush button (the lower button on your brush hand controller) to pick any color from the canvas, palette, mixing tray or rag. Aim into empty space to clear the brush. Pa
It's time for a few cool new features!

This patch should fix the floating screen being stuck in the floor. Apologies!

The easel has always been a bit clunky to move. No more! You can now move the easel in all dimensions with just one grip, and easily and swiftly position it anywhere you like. I've also opened up the entire studio floor for you to position the easel in, as this feature has often

I've also opened up the entire studio floor for you to position the easel in, as this feature has often been requested. Now you can see the studios from entirely new angles!
No idea what to paint? Vermillion now comes with its first paint by numbers pack, giving you the choice of four pre-made PBN templates to get started straight away. You can of course still generate PBN templates from your own images. The generator panel has moved to the new Paint

You can now generate a paint by numbers template from your own images and any image you find online! Vermillion will generate the outlines, which you can show above or below the paint on the canvas. The palette will be automatically filled with the required colors, between 2 and 20. You can change how detailed you want the outlines to be. You can isolate outlines to one color at a time, so you can very easily apply the right color in the right area. Painting has never been more accessible!
Additionally, you can now open local images on the floating screen directly from inside Vermillion, which you can also use to generate paint by numbers templates.
As always, if you're enjoying the update, please consider leaving a review! Greatly appreciated. Have fun! 🙏🏻

Distant grabbing of studio equipment (brushes, palette, easel and stand grips) is now a setting that's disabled by default. You can enable it again from Settings > Controllers. Fixed 3D model export being blank and 10m under the origin. Fixed brush disappearing when grabbing s
Added line from hand to distant grab hand to make the remote grabbing intent clearer Fixed several small bugs WMR controller binding for toggling the projection should now be correct, thanks to muuyo
Hey everyone, I've been hard at work on the Quest MR update, and I'm passing the savings onto you ! You can now mount your paintings in the Manor and Loft studios by approaching a wall, and even have them sitting in a customizable frame. The paint now looks a whole lot glossier.

Starting as an overlay closed the running VR game, which it obviously isn't meant to do. This is fixed again. Thanks Ideshon for reporting this!

Fixed head aimed smooth locomotion being active without holding trigger. Teleport fixes in overlay mode. Prevented LIV from moving you around.

Another important change this update brings is improved locomotion. Locomotion was always a second class citizen in Vermillion, but this is no longer the case.
The smooth locomotion options are especially useful in overlay mode!
One more cool addition this update brings is a new outdoor studio. You know, in case you're done painting in Skyrim or VRChat.
The final important change this update brings is that now the default VR runtime is OpenVR, instead of OpenXR. OpenXR is the supposed new standard, but it's been nothing but trouble since Vermillion's launch. To this day it causes some users' controllers to not track. Out with the new, in with the old! You can still use the OpenXR launch option to bypass SteamVR on non-SteamVR platforms, such as Oculus and WMR.

These were somehow broken - no idea how that happened. SteamVR update maybe? Many thanks to mos for bringing this to my attention!

Fixed issue with layered transparent paint. Only applies to new paintings. When trying to join a public room and none is available, you now automatically create a public room yourself so others can join later. Fixed player moving when going in and out of multiplayer. Added "Merge

Ever dreamed of painting the mountains of Skyrim? Or sit on the balcony overlooking City 17 while doodling away? You can now, using the overlay beta. It renders Vermillion as an overlay over any Steam VR game. It captures the inputs, so there's no interference. You can turn the input capture on/off easily with a toggle at your feet, where you can also hide the overlay entirely.
To opt into the beta, right click Vermillion in your Steam library > Betas > select overlay. You now get a new launch option to start Vermillion as an overlay. I'm really looking forward to see where you will be painting!

You requested it, and here it is! You can now merge layers down. This allows you to free up layers, so you can make complex compositions without worry. You can now move layers. Gone are the days of forgetting to start on layer 2, and not being able to put in your background after
You requested it, and here it is!
Note that you can only merge layers on new paintings. This is because the way transparent paint used to be shown on the canvas was incorrect, and made it impossible to merge layers down. Your old paintings are not affected by this change, but you therefore also can't merge layers on those.
