How to Add Custom Palettes to Vermillion VR Painting

You can add custom palettes for Meta Quest standalone, SteamVR, or Quest Link. Let’s go through how to do this on Windows PC and Apple devices.

For all three, you will download the palette folder from my drive as a whole, then put the whole folder into the places that I describe, not just the contents. Move it as a folder.
