skybox changes in specific areas

[magic light]

im tryna make it so the skybox and music changes when a player is in a specific area. i already got the music part down but i dont know how to do the skybox, can any1 help? (client sided)

[stray sluice]

Hey

I'll help y

**So To make the Skybox change client-side when a player enters a specific area, you'll want to do the following:

• LocalScript inside StarterPlayerScripts.

• Touched or Region3 or ZonePlus to detect the area.

• Custom Sky instance for your new skybox.

• Client-side only (to not affect all players).**

So I'll give you quickest methode

**1. In Workspace:
Add an invisible, non-collidable Part (e.g., called "SkyTrigger") that marks the area.

2. In ReplicatedStorage:
   Add a Sky object with your custom skybox images., and name it "CustomSky"**

and this is the LocalScript must be in (StarterPlayerScripts):

local trigger = workspace:WaitForChild("SkyTrigger")
local customSky = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("CustomSky"):Clone()

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera

local inZone = false

trigger.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit.Parent == player.Character and not inZone then
        inZone = true
        for _, v in pairs(cam:GetChildren()) do
            if v:IsA("Sky") then v:Destroy() end
        end
        customSky:Clone().Parent = cam
    end
end)

trigger.TouchEnded:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit.Parent == player.Character then
        inZone = false
        for _, v in pairs(cam:GetChildren()) do
            if v:IsA("Sky") then v:Destroy() end
        end
    end
end)

You're Welcome, this is my job 😉

** You are now Level 1! **

[stray sluice]

ZonePlus is a free Roblox module (not a plugin) you can add to your game by importing it from the Roblox library (Marketplace) or via its official page.

Roblox Marketplace page:
https://create.roblox.com/marketplace/asset/6883141283/Zone-Module

How to use:

1. Insert ZonePlus ModuleScript into ReplicatedStorage.

2. Require it in your server or local scripts:

local ZonePlus = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.ZonePlus)

3. Define zones by size and position, then listen to .Touched, .SteppedIn, .SteppedOut events per player.

this line goes in my local script in starterplayerscripts right?

[stray sluice]

**# No, that line :
should not go in a LocalScript inside StarterPlayerScripts by default, it depends on where and how you want to use ZonePlus:

• If you want to detect zones for a single player on their client only (client-side detection), then yes, put that line in a LocalScript inside StarterPlayerScripts or similar client context.

• If you want to do zone detection on the server for all players globally (server-side logic), then put that line in a Script in ServerScriptService or wherever your server scripts run.**

[magic light]

so in starterplayerscripts one local script for the specific sky, and one for the zoneplus?
im doing client sided

sorry just gotta make sure im doing this right

[stray sluice]

** # Exactly! For client-sided detection and effects, your setup in StarterPlayerScripts would look like this:

• One LocalScript for handling the ZonePlus zone detection, this script requires the ZonePlus module and detects when the player enters or leaves the zone.

• Another LocalScript (or part of the same script) for changing the Skybox and playing music when the player is inside that zone.**

[magic light]

these are the 2 scripts im using, but for some reason it isnt working
i did name the part SkyTrigger, is there anything i need to add to one of these codes or change in the original ZonePlus scripts?

[stray sluice]

can you give me the output errors?

wait

You're not using ZonePlus at all , you're still relying on basic .Touched, which is unreliable for player detection and doesn't work consistently with HumanoidRootPart or characters due to physics glitches.

I'll code u wokring script

[magic light]

oh

thank you

[stray sluice]

ur welcome

local ZonePlus = require(game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("ZonePlus"))
local triggerPart = workspace:WaitForChild("SkyTrigger")
local customSky = game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("CustomSky")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera

local zone = ZonePlus.new(triggerPart)

zone.playerEntered:Connect(function(localPlayer)
    if localPlayer == player then
        for _, v in pairs(cam:GetChildren()) do
            if v:IsA("Sky") then v:Destroy() end
        end
        customSky:Clone().Parent = cam
    end
end)

zone.playerExited:Connect(function(localPlayer)
    if localPlayer == player then
        for _, v in pairs(cam:GetChildren()) do
            if v:IsA("Sky") then v:Destroy() end
        end
    end
end)

Try it now, should works now

sorry, I was offline

I knew the probelm

Your script is waiting forever for the ZonePlus module because it does not exist (or is misnamed) in ReplicatedStorage!!

Make sure in ReplicatedStorage a ModuleScript named exactly ZonePlus

(spelled exactly, with uppercase Z and P)

Go to this link:
https://create.roblox.com/marketplace/asset/6883141283/Zone-Module

Click “Get” → it will go to your toolbox.

In Studio, open the Toolbox → drag the ZonePlus module into ReplicatedStorage.
