[WIP]AIO Dynamic Sky - Procedural Day-Night Cycle with Sun & Moon, Clouds & Starfield

It should be most easy to setup Dynamic Sky with Day Night Cycle, just like default SkyBox, just put the preset material in light setting, Done.

AIO Dynamic Sky isn’t base on realistic calculation, It isn’t volumetric clouds(too heavy) , including sun, moon, star field & clouds, sun light & moon light can affect the clouds,base on sm2.0, without extra mesh, should be light weight for most project.

Any comments are welcome.

Mobile Performance test on OnePlus 1, not perfect, but good enough for most project.

Rev the Old test WIP2
I decided to release this version soon.

When should we expect a release? And what price are you aiming for?

Thanks for your feedback.

I am working on the document, hopefully it can release in next month.(September)
The price not designed yet, I will lower the price when first release, maybe about US$15-20,
if it can sell enough quantity, I will implement more features, then I will rise the price.

Ok, that sounds good! It looks great, and very light weight, which is what I’m looking for.

I just submit the package to asset store, since this is my first submit, I don’t know that after submission, I can’t edit anything include the screen shot & text info. too bad I haven’t use the preview first! :frowning:

This is the sample come with the package running on my gtx1070 notebook, so the frame rate is pretty good, and this version haven’t optimized for mobile.

Anyway, here is the Control script screen shot, there have a gizmos for you easy to see the sun path, also I find out the ambient lighting not work for most skybox shader, so there have I ambient lighting override function. it spend more time than I though to finish the script. Hope it will get approval soon.

Submitted the package more than 10 Days, still waiting for approval.

Just post some pic playing with AIO sky



Unity being slow as always

Too bad I can’t release it on time!

Still Waiting!
Working on some presets for next update.

AIO Dynamic Sky v1.2 WIP
New Sun Shafts helper & fog color control , and next version the price will rise to $20, get it before too late.

Even you already have other package for the skybox, since the price it so low, one more package for option is a good ideal. This is the most easy setup, Affordable & practical solution. Buy it Now only $19.98

When I decide to make a sky shader, looking for reference, there is more than hundred paper in the net.

Which way should I go for? there are some high end sky system in unity, but that isn’t easy to use, and thousand of parametric you need to deal with, and a lot of game object in the scene only for the sky, but there haven’t one is simple and practical solution. so here we are, the difficult of sky shader is it not only you need programming work, you also need a lot of art work.

more than 30+ clouds map I tested, create from satellite photo, still not good enough, final one I use some fluid sim program to create the element, and a lot of photoshop work, and what we have actually still have a lot thing can improve.

one of fluids map I use.

AIO Dynamic Sky v1.2 is finished, I am testing it right now.
Working in editor between run time is very different, I find out the document don’t have enough information, Trial & error is the only way, maybe I miss some detail?


New item in Inspector

Can you add some way to make a clouds presets?

and different clouds in the day and the night?

Is it possible to create this kind of look?

You mean the color or the clouds shape? There is two clouds shape included, Will add more later, color is easy to adjust in materials. customer tools not planning yet, since the shader may change in future.

I try to match you pic, at this moment what I can do like this.
