Walkable demo

Moon base

Walk an established lunar base from the Lunar Surface Colony and Rovers pack: thirteen habitats and tunnels mated on the hab-port grid, a solar field and reactor, a landing pad with blast walls, the whole rover fleet, a regolith works and crews on EVA.

About

One base from 45 of the pack's 54 models on plain regolith in the space preset: a star field down to the horizon, the Earth low in the sky, and hard white sunlight.

You start outside the front airlock with three crew on EVA. Behind it the regolith-shielded habitat meets a tunnel spine of three tee junctions and two straight bays; every mate is a hab-port on the 6 m site grid, and no tunnel port is left open. The west end carries the medical module and the workshop and vehicle bay; the greenhouse runs north through a quarter-turn tunnel into the inflatable dome and its cupola; a third straight bay leads north to the logistics module, the crew habitat and a second cupola; and the regolith-shielded dome ends the spine at a second airlock facing the landing pad.

North-west is the power field: five solar rows, the vertical solar tower, radiator banks, battery containers and the reactor behind its berm, with the relay mast beside it. North-east the crew lander stands on the sintered pad behind two blast deflector walls and five approach beacons, with the cryogenic tank farm, the transfer arm and two tanker haulers. South-east is the rover park with every rover in the pack, most of them more than once, and the cargo lander with its ramp down behind two blast berms. South-west is the regolith works: excavator, hopper and screening deck, oxygen and water skids, the sintering print gantry, three stockpiles and survey markers. Crews, tool carts and sleds are placed wherever the work is.

Nothing moves: this pack ships without animation clips. The five terrain tiles are not placed, since each carries 1.3 to 3.4 m of relief that would stand as a slab on the demo's flat floor. The domes are round, so their square bounding boxes touch the neighbouring module corners without the geometry meeting.

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.

Common questions

How do I use Moon base 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 Moon base 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 Moon base 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.
