You can find assets like characters, sets and props to integrate into your Flipside productions from a variety of sources, including the Unity Asset Store, Sketchfab, Turbosquid, Daz3D, and others.

To view your content on a computer so you can stream or screen capture your camera output, cast to a computer with the Flipside Broadcaster companion app.  If you are on Rift, Flipside's Desktop Interface will display your camera output and give you additional control/options.

If you're on Quest, you will need a Widows PC and Flipside Broadcaster, our free companion app. Your cast can be sent to any PC anywhere. For those without access to a Widows PC, you can use your headset's casting or recording features, but you will be limited to your POV.

If you are on Mac, stay tuned we're working it.

Flipside works with the Quest 2 and 3, Quest Pro, Rift S, and Pico 4 headsets and is available on the Meta Quest, Meta Rift, and Pico VR app stores.

You can download Flipside from the Meta Quest, Meta Rift, and Pico VR app stores.

If you’re unable to install Flipside, check your internet connection. If connectivity is not an issue, contact the app store you are downloading from.

To livestream or record video of your Flipside content, Quest and Pico users will need Flipside Broadcaster, our free companion app, to cast their content to a PC along with any livestreaming or screen capturing software like OBS Studio.

Some users are running into issues when trying to add a Video Capture Device source in OBS Studio. This is a known issue with OBS Studio. If you are running into this, please follow the steps below:

1. Open Flipside Broadcaster.
2. In OBS Studio, instead of adding Video Capture Device as the source, add Game Capture as a source.
3. In the Game Capture Properties window, as the Mode, select Capture specific window, then select Flipside Broadcaster as the Window.
4. Now you should see Flipside Broadcaster in OBS studio and can start streaming or recording video!
