SkyAndLights Set

As of now, there are 26 Lighting sets in total.

Skybox Set

The Skybox Set includes 26 types of Skyboxes, such as landscapes and photo studios.
Unlike the SkyAndLights Set, the lighting of your scene will not be affected by the Skybox you choose.

SkyAndLights_ChangeableGradient_Skybox

The color of Skyboxes are fixed by default, but the asset “SkyAndLights_ChangeableGradient_Skybox” lets you choose up to three colors to create a custom skybox gradient.

As with other Skyboxes, you can add it from Add Assets > Environment > Skybox.

Now, let’s choose a SkyAndLights Set from Add Assets > Environment > Lights.
A Skybox and matching Lights will be added to your STYLY scene.

Using the Style Change Modifier

You can add a Style Change modifier to an object and change its appearance.

To add the modifier, click on the object’s gear icon and select “Add modifier.”

Type “Style change” into the search bar, and select a modifier you’d like to use on your object.

Caution

Keep in mind that only one SkyAndLights Set or Skybox Set can be placed in each STYLY scene.
Therefore, if a Set is placed in a STYLY scene where there is a Skybox already, the original Skybox will be replaced.
