Environment mapping that uses the six faces of a cube as the map shape.

Required

You need to already have cubemaps files, named with these suffixes: _px, _py, _pz, _nx, _ny, _nz (with p = positive and n = negative, as you can guess).

There is two ways to organize your cubemaps files, and so the naming:

in a dedicated folder per cubemaps:

here the name is the folder name

in a global folder:

here the name is on the files

In patch

using folder naming:

[{
  "scene.cubeMaterial.000" : {
      "reflectionTexture" : {
         "texture::cube" : {
              "rootUrl": "./assets/cubemaps/default/",
              "coordinatesMode" : "CUBIC_MODE"
          }
      }
  }
}]

using files naming:

[{
  "scene.cubeMaterial.000" : {
      "reflectionTexture" : {
         "texture::cube" : {
              "rootUrl": "./assets/cubemaps/default",
              "coordinatesMode" : "CUBIC_MODE"
          }
      }
  }
}]

notice that only the / char make the difference between folder or file naming way

By code

var cubeTexture = _r.texture.cube({
  "rootUrl": "./assets/cubemaps/default/",
  "coordinatesMode" : "CUBIC_MODE"
});
_r("scene.cubeMaterial.000").attr("reflectionTexture", cubeTexture);

Parameters

Designers

parameter	required	type	default	description
rootUrl	x	string		Link of the texture
noMipmap		boolean	false
coordinatesMode		string	'EXPLICIT_MODE'	'EXPLICIT_MODE', SPHERICAL_MODE', 'PLANAR_MODE', 'CUBIC_MODE', 'PROJECTION_MODE', 'SKYBOX_MODE', 'INVCUBIC_MODE', 'EQUIRECTANGULAR_MODE', 'FIXED_EQUIRECTANGULAR_MODE'

Misc.

parameter	type	default	description
extensions	string[]		The cube texture extensions. The defaults extensions are : [_px.jpg, _py.jpg, _pz.jpg, _nx.jpg, _ny.jpg, _nz.jpg]
files	string[]
onLoad	() => void		Callback
coordinatesMode	number	BABYLON.Texture.EXPLICIT_MODE	ex : BABYLON.Texture.CUBIC_MODE

Any other parameters...

...will be merged into the texture.

Ex :

[{
    "scene.cubeMaterial.000" : {
        "reflectionTexture" : {
           "texture::cube" : {
                "rootUrl": "./assets/cubemaps/default",
                "coordinatesMode" : "CUBIC_MODE",
                "level" : 0.5
            }
        }
    }
}]
