Light Station and Rocky Point

Walk a working light station on a hard shore: the tower on its point, the keeper’s garden, the slipway and tackle ground, a jetty over the tide pools, and the lens itself down in the yard where you can reach it.

About

What is placed

A whole light station and the shore it stands on, laid from the pack’s six metre ground modules: cliff top grass under a cliff face at the back, a shingle beach, a rock shelf and tide pools running out to the point, and sea water planes with foam edges where the water meets the rock. The tower stands on the point: base plinth, five drum stages (plain, windowed and banded), gallery and railing, lantern room and dome with its vane.

Inland is the keeper’s garden inside a dry stone wall, with the cottage, an outbuilding, the coal bunker, the water butt and a washing line, and a working yard of oil and fuel stores, drum racks and handcarts beside it. The slipway runs off the shingle into the water with the boat trolley, lobster pots, nets, rope coils and tackle crates round its head. A jetty on piles reaches over the tide pools past the foghorn, with bollards, a life ring and a rowing boat moored off the end. Buoys, sea stacks and boulders sit offshore, wreck ribs lie half buried in the shingle, and cairns and warning signs mark the cliff path.

The lens is at ground level on purpose

The lantern room, the gallery and the spiral stair sit at the top of a tall tower, and a demo walk has no vertical movement, so nobody would ever reach them. The pack answers that the way a real light station does during an overhaul: the optic is out of the lantern and standing in the yard on its overhaul cradle, with a spare stair segment beside it. It is the first thing on the walk from the spawn, and the drum spins as you come up to it. The tower keeps its job as the silhouette you navigate by.

What moves

The lens drum spins on its cradle. The cottage door, the outbuilding door, the oil and fuel store door, the base plinth door and the garden gate all swing. The water butt lid lifts, the coal bunker lid lifts, the dome vent turns and the weathervane spins, and the handcart and boat trolley wheels roll. Clips play as you come within a few metres.

What does not move, and why

The sea, the foam edges, the fishing nets, the rope coils, the flags on the mast and the flagpole and the washing on the line are all static. Flexible material and moving fluid need either a joint per element or a shader, and neither is reachable with the one rigid node transform per moving part that every model here uses. The foghorn is fixed: nothing on it is meant to move. There are no people and no animals, because the pack has no skinned meshes.

About the station

It is an unnamed, invented light station. No real lighthouse, lighthouse authority, coastguard service, shipping line or lifeboat charity is named or depicted, the tower’s banding is invented rather than copied from any real light’s character, and every sign face, flag and buoy marking in the pack is deliberately blank.

Every piece here is a published model from the pack, placed by hand. Walk with the keys or touch, and approach a piece to see it move if it has animation. Colliders, navigation and gameplay are yours to add.

Points of interest

The lens on its cradle
The optic is out of the lantern and down in the yard on its overhaul cradle, where you can walk round it. The drum spins. A spare stair segment stands beside it so you can see how the tower is stacked.
Lighthouse Lamp and Lens (Lighthouse and Rocky Coast)
The tower
Base plinth, five drum stages plain, windowed and banded, then the gallery, the lantern room and the dome. Stack as many stages as you need. The door swings, the dome vent turns and the vane spins.
Lighthouse Tower Stage Banded (Lighthouse and Rocky Coast)
The keeper’s garden
Cottage, outbuilding, coal bunker, water butt and a washing line inside a dry stone wall. The cottage door and the garden gate swing, and the water butt lid lifts.

The slipway and the tackle ground
The slipway runs off the shingle into the water, with the boat trolley, the pots, the nets, the rope and the crates stacked round its head. The trolley wheels roll.
Slipway (Lighthouse and Rocky Coast)
The jetty and the foghorn
Three deck modules on piles, bollards, a life ring and the foghorn on its mounting above the tide pools. The foghorn is fixed: there is no moving part in it.
Foghorn on Mounting (Lighthouse and Rocky Coast)
The wreck in the shingle
Ribs half buried in the beach, driftwood, boulders and the sea stacks standing offshore. The shore is laid from six metre modules: rock shelf, tide pool, shingle, grass and cliff face.

Common questions

How do I use Light Station and Rocky Point with my AI development tools?

Press "Copy for AI agent" above and paste the prompt into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT or any other coding assistant. The prompt carries the direct CDN URL, the real-world size, the licence and the loading notes, so the assistant can fetch the scene and place it in your project without you writing the loader yourself. For a permanent connection, add the 3DAssets.dev MCP server to your tool with one command (for Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http 3dassets https://3dassets.dev/mcp) and the assistant can then search the whole catalogue, fetch files and read the usage snippets on its own.

How do I get started?

Walk the scene here with the keys or touch to see how the pack fits together. To build it yourself, download the pack with the button, then copy the "Copy for AI agent" prompt: it links the layout JSON, which lists every placement with its position, rotation and CDN URL, so an assistant connected to the MCP server can rebuild the scene in your engine and change it to order.

MCP server setup

Which game engines and tools can I use Light Station and Rocky Point with?

Anything that reads glTF, which today means all of the major ones: three.js and React Three Fiber on the web, Godot 4, Unity, Unreal Engine 5, Blender and the model-viewer web component. Every model in the scene is a self-contained binary glTF (.glb) with textures embedded, so each is one file to import and no plugin, converter or decoder to install first.

How do I import this scene into Unity, Godot, Unreal or Blender?

Unity: install the glTFast package (com.unity.cloud.gltfast) from the Package Manager, drop the .glb into Assets and drag the prefab in, or load it at runtime from the CDN URL. Godot 4: copy the file into the project folder and the editor imports it as a scene you can instantiate. Unreal Engine 5: File > Import with the built-in glTF importer, which converts the axes for you. Blender: File > Import > glTF 2.0. Units are metres with +Y up in the file, and every importer above handles the conversion to its own axes automatically.

Can I use Light Station and Rocky Point in a commercial game, and do I need to credit anyone?

Yes to commercial use and no to credit. Every scene on 3DAssets.dev is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, which places it in the public domain: use it in a paid game, an app, a film or a client project, modify it, redistribute it, and put nothing in the credits. A link back is welcome but it is entirely your choice.

CC0 licence text

Can I load it from the CDN instead of downloading it?

Yes. The pack behind it has a permanent URL on cdn.3dassets.dev that is CORS-enabled and never changes content, so you can pass it straight to GLTFLoader, glTFast or model-viewer in production and cache it as hard as you like. Downloading is only needed for engines that import from disk.

Is the demo itself a file I can download?

No, and it does not need to be. A demo is a layout of the pack's published models composed in your browser from the CDN, so there is no extra file to fetch. Download the pack for the models, and take the layout JSON linked above for the placements: together they are the whole scene, and an AI agent can rebuild it from those two links.

Can I change the scene, or add gameplay to it?

Yes. The layout is plain data in metres, so move, add or remove placements freely in your own engine. Colliders, navigation and gameplay are yours to add: the demo shows what the pack looks like assembled, and your game decides how it plays.
