For everyone who wonders about how to actually make the space skies rotate on their own, not just setting a specific control rotation on the Z axis, here’s a screenshot of the modifications I have applied to “M_SkySphere_HDRI”:

Speed param controls the speed of the rotation
and with the values (1,0,1 on the screen) of the 3 vector color node you can control the axis’ in which the sky rotates.



To the creator of this pack:

  1. Thanks! Exactly what I was looking for!
  2. You might want to update your forum URL though - here in the first post and in the fab store.
