What is the best way to create VR art? I'm very interested in the medium but currently do not have a rig or capable home computer, but am not opposed to picking one up. Any recommendations?



Repeating that art in VR is pretty much always made using Unreal, Unity or maybe Three.js

But, if you are specifically interested in making art IN VR, there's https://www.digitalartsonline.co.uk/features/hacking-maker/7... There's also https://www.notch.one/for-vr/ which is pricey for pros but £99 for private use.


Any 3D art made with traditional modeling and procedural mesh solutions and placed inside an engine like Unreal or Unity should just work out of the box.

However the nuances of VR art are harder to take advantage of without goggles yourself, being able to test perspective and scale immediately is very beneficial and leads to creative solutions.
