Add scenes to your project
This guide walks you through viewing and creating a scene in your project.
In iR Engine, a project can contain multiple scenes, allowing you to meet a range of project needs within a single domain. A scene is an entity hierarchy that holds all the entities, assets, and components that make up the parts of your project.
You can access your project’s scenes in the iR Engine in two ways: from the Console, and from the Studio. The following sections describe each option.
The My Projects page in the Studio provides an overview of all your projects. Each project displays the scene(s) associated with it in a thumbnail. After opening a scene, you can update a scene thumbnail by updating the scene preview camera inside the Studio.
Locate the Scenes tab at the bottom left of the browser. This tab opens a panel showing the collection of existing scenes associated with the project you are currently working on.
Follow these steps to add a new scene to your project:
Go to the My Projects page from the left panel.
Find the project where you want to create the scene.
Click Add new scene. This action creates your scene.
Click the scene you wish to enter to open the Studio.
Ensure the Scenes tab is active in the lower panel of the Studio. This tab displays all available scenes in your project.
Click the Add Scene button on the right side of the panel. This creates a new scene in your project.
Optionally, you can rename your scene using the three-dot menu (…) on the scene thumbnail for better organization.
After creating your scene, it automatically becomes active, and you can start building your experience.
Now that you have created your first scene in your project, you can proceed to Load assets into scenes to build your experience.
