Sky Studio - Dynamic Sky and Weather

Sky Studio is the most customizable dynamic sky and weather system for Unity!

NEW! Sky Studio now fully supports URP and Built-in render pipelines!

Key features:

Rain, rain surface splashes, lightning, stars, fog, clouds, sun & moon, day & night cycle, and more. All can be customized and animated through 90+ sky properties, without sacrificing performance.

Think Custom! Sky Studio breaks the traditional constraints of other sky systems, by allowing limitless customization of the sky, weather, day-night-cycles, textures, and custom animations. Say goodbye to your one size fits all sky solution!

The Sky Timeline, unique to Sky Studio, allows you to build detailed sky animation transitions and control the 90+ animatable sky and weather properties. Easily create custom day-night cycles that animate in-out the stars, rain, lightning, clouds, and sun/moon orbit paths.

(NEW!) Sky Profile Transitions

Sky Studio can now automatically animate between your different Sky Profile settings. With just 1 line of code, you can get a smooth animation between different sky configurations, including weather effects! Demo scene included on how to easily trigger a Sky Profile transition.

RAIN

Sky Studio weather includes GPU accelerated rain effects that are highly art customizable and performant. Use our beautiful pre-configured art rain styles, or easily supply your own images to customize the style of the rain effect in your game. This lets you create a wide range of visual rain styles such as realistic rain, low-poly rain, falling fireballs, or anything else you can dream-up.

RAIN SURFACE SPLASHES

Sky Studio weather includes GPU accelerated rain splashes that create a new level of immersion for your weather scenes. Our rain splash system is both highly performant and completely customizable. Rain splashes are animated and will splash off of objects in your scene (like the ground). Use our existing rain splash styles, or easily create your own custom splash effects with a custom mesh and sprite sheet animation.

LIGHTNING

Sky Studio weather includes a built-in lightning and thunder system, which is highly customizable. You can easily control where lightning bolts are spawned in your scene, as well as completely customize or create your own unique lightning bolts and sounds.

CLOUDS

Easily setup high-performance dynamic clouds with customizable density, color, wind direction, speed, height, and proper additive blending with the rest of the sky. We also have fully art customizable clouds through our cloud cubemap support. Design your own texture and meshes, and Sky Studio will render them right into the skybox... even with real-time lighting!

SKY BACKGROUND

Sky Studio supports a fully customizable 3-way gradient that can be easily animated. You can easily adjust the horizon position and even the distribution and length of the gradient. If your project requires a more detailed background Sky Studio also supports custom cubemap backgrounds, which are fully supported by the rest of Sky Studio features.

SUN & MOON

Sky Studio's orbiting bodies are completely customizable, with deep Unity Editor integration to make positioning the sun as easy as point-n-click in the scene view. You can optionally supply your own custom textures (additive or transparent), and even create custom animation paths through the sky using our Sky Timeline keyframe animation editor. Just a few of the orbiting body customizations are changing the size, color, texture, path, light color, light intensity, and sprite sheet animation support.

STARS

Quickly add brilliant twinkling stars into your game! Our star system is fully art customizable, and extremely performant. Sky Studio can even render 360 space scenes with dynamic twinkling stars!

FOG

Create atmospheric conditions using our custom skybox horizon fog, and we also integrate with Unity's Global Fog settings.

SKY PROFILES

Our custom sky profiles and UI editor integration, make it easy to build custom skies and switch between them during runtime.

PERFORMANCE

Sky Studio is extremely performant and can even run on mobile class hardware. Our fast single-pass skybox shader has been tested and verified to run at 60 FPS effortlessly on Android, iOS, Windows, Mac OS, and HTML 5! Developers have told us that adding Sky Studio has had no noticeable performance impact. We have support for "shader model 2" devices (such as OpenGL ES 2) or higher.

SCRIPT INTEGRATION

Integrating your own custom logic to trigger at certain points in a day/night cycle is easy with our callbacks provided by the sky system controller.

ASSET COMPATIBILITY

Sky Studio has been tested and verified to work with Aquas and Gaia Unity Assets.

FAQ:

Q: How is Sky Studio different from other sky assets?

A: We support extreme levels of customization, unrivaled by other sky solutions, so you can finally build alien worlds, outer space, and cartoon fantasy lands all with the same sky tool. Customize over 90+ properties that control the sky and weather systems, or create completely unique effects using your own custom meshes, textures, and sprite-sheets for Sky Studio to GPU accelerate. Sky Studio is also the ONLY sky system with the "Sky Timeline" animation editor for building day/night cycles visually using familiar keyframe animation concepts. With Sky Studio we work hard to make sure all our features are fully art customizable and highly performant.

Q: Are there any video tutorials?

A: Yes! All our video tutorials can be found on our YouTube channel.

Q: Is there documentation on how to use Sky Studio?

A: Yes, you can find our full developer manual here.

Q: Does Sky Studio support HDRP?

A: Sky Studio currently does not support HDRP. We'd like to support HDRP at some time in the future though. We currently recommend using the Unity 3D built-in rendering pipeline, or URP with Sky Studio.

Q: Does Sky Studio support URP (aka LWRP)?

A: Yes, we fully support URP and have compatible demo scenes!
