Scene selection

We provide a variety of different scenes, these are sky boxes which have their own lighting properties and are good to switch between to test your sticker out in different lighting conditions.

Material Inputs

On the left side of the viewport is where you input your artwork and associated materials (e.g Normal Maps, Masks)

Material Inputs

Each style has different material inputs, so ensure you've selected the correct style from the "Style" menu at the top.

Here you can play about with the wear value, try out wear influences on your sticker.

One thing to note is that by default "Sticker Scratches" is set to 1, this means that even at brand new state, scratches will be visible.

To have scratches show once the user starts scraping, set the Sticker Scratches value to 0.9

You can also configure the environment too, such as the influence of the sky on your sticker, the intensity and much more.
