Custom Skydome Development Guide
Hey friends! I've created a development guide based on my personal experience with the new custom skydome feature in Worlds. This is intended to help you better understand how to make and import custom skydomes into your worlds! Find it here I have included the files I made using Blender if you wish to follow along with the process or you can use your own! *If you have questions or recommendations for amendments, please leave them here for me Hope this helps and happy creating! The skydome I made, for reference. It's a quickly thrown together desktop scene that is still a WIPMake & Import an Animated FBX Using Blender 4.5
I know some have been struggling a bit with this. Here's a super-simple 15 minute workflow to: Create a simple animated 3d mesh in blender Export it to FBX with animation and import it to Horizon Worlds Please like and share to anyone that might find it useful Subscribe to my youtube channel for more tutorials and Horizon Worlds usefulness https://www.youtube.com/@The3EyedTiger
New Resource: Meta Horizon Creator Manual - Technical Reference
Hey creators! We’ve released a comprehensive technical reference for Meta Horizon Worlds that should make your dev life much easier. What is it? The Meta Horizon Creator Manual is a community-sourced, Meta-endorsed, guide that documents core systems including gizmos, scripting, physics, entities, networking, grabbables, attachables, and more. It's a go-to reference when you want to know how parts of Meta Horizon work or what some of the TypeScript does (the guide focuses on horizon/core). Note: the Creator Manual is not a tutorial; it is a technical manual focused on answering technical questions about Horizon and its "engine". For tutorials and introductory content, visit the creator documentation site. When you'll want it and how to use it Any time you are wondering "how does this system work?" or "what does this property do?" or "how do these APIs interact?" then you should open up this doc. It has a thorough table of contents at the top you can use to jump around. And at the bottom of the doc there is a list of every CodeBlockEvent and every TypeScript symbol in horizon/core; you can use those sections to jump around the doc as well. Forum posts If you find an error in the guide, want to recommend an edit, have a question, or feel that there is information missing, create a post in this forum including the relevant details. Please be specific about the section you are referring to and the edits you would make; if you are suggesting a new section, please describe where it would go, what it would cover, and why it isn’t covered by other existing resources. Be sure to include the Creator Manual label any time you post in the forum about the guide. Thanks! Have fun building. We hope this helps!The Horizon Creator Manual is now open source! 🎉
You can now contribute to the creator manual. Anyone can put up a pull request to edit the doc (small fixes, or entirely new sections). We can now pool all our knowledge together to make the best docs. Please read the README on how to work on the doc and how to submit a pull request. The repo is here: https://github.com/MHCPCreators/horizonCreatorManual The pdf is downloadable here. and it will be regularly updated as the doc evolves! If you haven't used the creator manual yet, watch the workshop recording for an overview of what the manual includes and how to best navigate it during development.🎥Meta Horizon Creator Manual - Workshop Recording
