Hi
does anybody know where the code to change the color of the scattersky is ,I have spent a full day looking and come up empty.
I was looking to find RGB values for a gradient.

Thanks

The ScatterSky derives its color procedurally, via atmospheric scattering calculations. You can adjust some of the overall color with the rayleighCoefficient variable but if you need a very particular color, it may not be the right object for you. Alternatively you could set it up so that it could blend in a color, but I don't know how well that would work.

Ah ok
Thanks I want to get a nice daylight with a lighter blue/slightly yellow horizon.
I might wait until the control options that was mentioned is added later down the track.
Thanks again

Also is that rayleighCoefficient variable animatable?

Play around with the two scattering coefficents and the atmosphere/viewHeight (forget which it is). When messing with the height keep in mind that very very small changes of the value can have a very large effect.

It cannot currently be animated, but that it something we want to add.
