Objects default color question

Unity Engine
1

Hello.

I created a new project. The very 1st scene is generated automatically by default. And all objects I add to it have a quite nice white color. But in all further scenes I create, all objects are ugly grey by default.

And yes, I’ve read the Material Texture FAQ thread here, and there said that models should be grey by default if they doesn’t have a texture/material. Ok, but why all objects in the very 1st scene are white?

Quite confusing… I failed to find an answer on such question over the forums. I’m a new in Unity, maybe I’m doing something wrong or don’t understand something… Please assist. White color looks a bit better for me, so if there any way to use it in all scenes by default (as in the very 1st scene) I will be very appreciated your advices. Thank you.

Maybe will be useful for someone else. I’ve sorted this out. The reason is lighting.

Window → Lighting → Lightmaps → “Auto” checkbox should be on.

For some reason it’s on by default on the 1st default scene, but on all further scenes it becomes off.
