This is pretty amazing, Saturn’s rings look really nice in these pictures.

Go to Lighting > Sky > SunAngularSize to change it.

In the same skybox you can remove or decrease it.

Your skybox looks incredible! The only thing I’d recommended adding is some smaller stars that would give off that feeling of them being far away. :slight_smile:

Disabling Celestial Bodies such as The Sun / Moon

If you need to disable the sun &/or the moon, you can do so by navigating to your skybox asset you’ve inserted into your game, it can be found under Lighting:

Then open the properties window from the View tab at the top of studio:

If you then select your skybox you should be able to toggle celestial bodies off, and it will disable the sun and moon from appearing.

That’s it!

Reducing Sun Glare & Changing Sun Position

If you want to edit how the sun behaves in terms of glare &/or ray brightness you should insert a new lighting effect called SunRays into Lighting:

You can then mess around with the properties of the SunRays to best suit your game.

In the properties of Lighting you can also mess around with the geographical latitude to change the position of the sun so that it’s not positioned directly inside of Saturn. :grin:

That’s it!

Changing the Sun Size / Moon Size & Editing the Moon/Sun Texture

In the properties window for your Skybox you can change the sun / moon texture as well as its angular size to give the feeling of distance between Saturn and the sun.

Reducing the SunAngularSize will reduce the appearance of the size for the sun, raising it will increase it.

That’s it!

Hope this helped. :slight_smile:

As a person who loves space, this is incredible. Maybe if you added some stars and made the orange in the edge bit more dark it would look like real life space. I also love the land too. With all of that texture it looks like an edited IRL photo of space.

It looks like you need go to Lighting>SunRays>Spread and turn that up, that will fix the sun. Titan looks great too!

I’ll be sure to do this thank you.

It doesn’t actually look like that. When I rendered it in blender as an hdri it had 32bit channels. For roblox you have to convert it to 8 bit sadly for the fact that it’s not an hdri but rather a skybox

This looks really cool. What software did you use to make it?

also i noticed you’re using attachments to emit light for the work lamp. that’s genius i never thought of that lmao
