Skybox Designer

Design skyboxes with a live spherical preview as you paint. Includes a built-in converter between formats.

Overview

Skybox Texturing is a complete set of workspaces for creating and converting skybox textures inside PixiEditor.

Workspaces

  • Skybox Equirectangular
    Design full 360° panoramic skybox textures in a single equirectangular canvas with a live spherical preview
  • Skybox Cubemap
    Paint all six cubemap faces side by side with a live 3D cube preview to check seams and transitions in real time
  • Equirectangular to Skybox
    Already have an equirectangular texture? Convert it directly to a cubemap-ready layout without leaving PixiEditor

  6. Export to any format you need

*To change the preview, click on the wrench icon in top right corner of the viewport and change “Render preview”
