AFRAME Enviropacks

A simple way of adding high-definition-looking environments and materials to your A-Frame project.

• HDRIs from HDRI Haven licensed CC0
• Textures from Texture Haven and CC0 Textures licensed CC0. Compressed with Squoosh
• Models either from CC0 Textures or created by Zach Capalbo
• Source code licensed MIT license
• Matcaps created by Zach Capalbo, licensed CC0

Include the js file in the header:

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/aframe-enviropacks@latest/aframe-enviropacks.js"></script>

then add the enviropack component to an entity and you're ready to go!

<a-entity enviropack="preset: tankfarm"></a-entity>

You can view the full example on Glitch:

Or check out this "Pumpkin Chunkin" demo to see it in a "real world" scenario:

Components

enviropack

Sets up a whole preset environment all in one component.

| Property | Description | |------|------| | preset | Preset environment to choose from. One of: tankfarm, sandstone, interior, winter, autumn, or night| | baseUrl | Base URL for assets. If left blank will be guessed based on the included .js file location |

enviropack-material

Applies one of the materials included in the pack.

| Property | Description | |------|------| | material | Name of preset material to use. One of: ground-grass-rock, ground-sandstone, ground-wood-floor, ground-snow, ground-forest, bark, gold, metal, plastic, fabric, concrete, rock, wood, planks, snow. Or could also be a "raw" material: Fabric026, Metal009, Metal035, Plastic, Snow003, Snow004, Wood027, WoodFloor041, aerial_grass_rock, bark_brown_02, brown_planks_04, forrest_ground_03, mossy_rock, rock_05, sandstone_cracks | | autoApply | If true, it will replace any material in the entity's mesh. This is useful for replacing the material on a loaded GLTF file, for instance.| | shader | Force a specific shader. Defaults to auto, which will chose standard on desktop, and pbmatcap on mobile |

enviropack-hdri

| Property | Description | |------|------| | hdri | Name of preset HDRI. One of: abandoned_tank_farm_02, autumn_hockey, large_corridor, the_sky_is_on_fire, winter_lake_01, dikhololo_night_edit | | backstop | If specified, will use this image as the sky background image (but not for lighting or envMap) |

Physically Based Matcaps

This package registers the pbmatcap shader, which creates a "Physically Based" matcap material. The pbmatcap shader uses material textures (such as roughnessMap and metalnessMap textures) to mix between custom matcap textures created for each different environment.

pbmatcap shader can approximate the full THREE.js standard shader while giving performance acceptable to a mobile device. By default, the enviropack components will automatically switch to pbmatcap on mobile, or standard on desktop. This behavior can be overriden with the shader property of the enviropack-material system.
