Hey everyone!

A new update was released today to clean up the developer's working environment. There shouldn't be any disruptions to your usual usage of Bigscreen, but if you run into any issues, please be sure to send in a bug report via our reporting system in the Settings menu!



This week in Bigscreen, UploadVR will host The VR Holiday Showcase and go in-depth with some of the titles announced back at E3 and get a closer look at gameplay with the help of developers themselves.

Hey everyone,

Today, we're releasing brand new avatar shirts in Bigscreen! We also improved and added more body shapes; we hope you find one that fits you best!

You can now rep NASA during our popular live rocket launch events! The new NASA shirt was highly requested by our users. Over the past few months, thousands of people have been attending our live rocket launch streams. We broke records with our SpaceX launch in July, when nearly 1000 people watched the launch live in Bigscreen. ːB1ː



Speaking of rocket launches, SpaceX expects to launch 60 satellites in their Falcon 9 rocket on November 11! We hope you'll join us for it and don't forget to wear your new NASA shirt 😉




We also slipped in a few fixes to this update:

• Fixed a PC crash with desktop video streaming
  
• Fixed various bugs
  

Everyone needs to update to this latest version in order to join the same rooms and see the new avatars! Hope you all like the new threads!

The previous planned launch didn't work out, but SpaceX is expected to launch the Falcon 9 rocket again on November 11! This will be the second batch of approximately 60 satellites for SpaceX’s Starlink broadband network, a mission designated Starlink 1. Watch this live in Bigscreen VR!
