Getting the Best View of the 3D Sun and Moon

Because Cubic Stars transforms the flat sun and moon into 3D cubic models, their added depth is easiest to appreciate when viewed at an angle rather than looking straight overhead.

Watching Sunrises and Sunsets

  • Find an area with a wide, unobstructed view of the eastern or western horizon, such as an ocean coast, open plains, or high hilltop.
  • Watch the sun cross the horizon, where multiple faces of the cubic model become visible at once and add depth to the changing sky.

Observing Moonlit Nights

Once night falls under clear skies, follow the moon as it rises and arcs across the stars. Unlike the default flat texture that looks paper-thin from oblique angles, the three-dimensional moon maintains a solid cubic shape wherever you stand. Building open-air balconies, skylights, or watchtowers facing east and west lets you enjoy the richer sunrise, sunset, and moonlit atmosphere while working on builds or preparing to adventure.
