This is because the default environment is now editor-only: #46315

[Pete-The-Penguin]

oh... is there a way to make an environment that the viewport can see?

[Calinou]

Yes, add a WorldEnvironment node to your scene and add a new Environment resource to it.

If you want it to apply to all scenes in your project, you could add this WorldEnvironment in an autoload (.tscn files can be added to autoloads just fine). However, you'll lose the ability to preview it in the editor by doing so (except by opening the autoloaded scene itself).

[Pete-The-Penguin]

ok, i'll try that and tell you how it goes.

[Pete-The-Penguin]

okay, while trying to get the viewport to display something other then black (which it did) i then tried setting the background to canvas which made the editor crashed. still couldn't make it display the sky, only other colors.

[Pete-The-Penguin]

i should also mention that the viewport only see's objects when a light is on it.

[Pete-The-Penguin]

finally got the viewport to see the sky! it was a little tricky though (and buggy of course), maybe add something in the docs and or in a hint of some kind?

I can't reproduce any of the above stated issues.

Windows 10, RX 5600 xt, built from latest at the time of writing 165d77a

[Pete-The-Penguin]

strange, cause i tried twice last time and got the same results, did you use the project i linked? or did you make your own project for testing?

[clayjohn]

I made a new project. Your instructions say to use an empty project.

What version of the engine are you using?

[Pete-The-Penguin]

the version number is in the title
