GroundedSkybox

A ground-projected skybox.

By default the object is centered at the camera, so it is often helpful to set skybox.position.y = height to put the ground at the origin.

Code Example

const height = 15, radius = 100;
const skybox = new GroundedSkybox( envMap, height, radius );
skybox.position.y = height;
scene.add( skybox );

GroundedSkybox is an addon, and must be imported explicitly, see Installation#Addons.

import { GroundedSkybox } from 'three/addons/objects/GroundedSkybox.js';

Constructs a new ground-projected skybox.

map

The environment map to use.

height

The height is how far the camera that took the photo was above the ground. A larger value will magnify the downward part of the image.

radius

The radius of the skybox. Must be large enough to ensure the scene's camera stays inside.

resolution

The geometry resolution of the skybox.

Default is 128.
