How to switch Lightning Profile programmatically from another script?

[MeHowLipa]

Hey, 

My setup:
Unity: 2021.3
Gaia: Gaia 2021 (not PRO)

I would like to write simple script to change time of day lightning base of my own timer. The problem is that I can't access/use programmatically any Gaia method to change lightning profile. 

My last script was trying to just use Gaia Lighting GameObject but I'm getting errors such as:

Quote

Assets/Code/Utilities/LightingManager.cs(15,9): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'GaiaSceneLighting' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Assets/Code/Utilities/LightingManager.cs(15,74): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'GaiaSceneLighting' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
 

This is my example script:
 

using UnityEngine;

public class LightingManager : MonoBehaviour
{
    public GameObject gaiaLighting; // Drag and drop your Gaia lighting object in the inspector
    private Gaia.GaiaSettings m_gaiaSettings;

    private void Start()
    {
        m_gaiaSettings = Gaia.GaiaUtils.GetGaiaSettings();
    }

    public void UpdateLightingProfile(int hour)
    {
        GaiaSceneLighting gaiaLighting = gaiaLightingObject.GetComponent<GaiaSceneLighting>();

        // Morning: 5:00 - 9:00
        if (hour >= 5 && hour < 9)
        {
            gaiaLighting.SwitchProfile("UserMorning");
        }
        // Day: 9:00 - 17:00
        else if (hour >= 9 && hour < 17)
        {
            gaiaLighting.SwitchProfile("UserDay");
        }
        // Evening: 17:00 - 20:00
        else if (hour >= 17 && hour < 20)
        {
            gaiaLighting.SwitchProfile("UserEvening");
        }
        // Night: 20:00 - 5:00
        else
        {
            gaiaLighting.SwitchProfile("UserNight");
        }
    }
}

I am looking into this, but everyone is gone due to the weekend I will get back with you as soon as I can. 

I do remember that it is possible, but cant remember exactly how it was done.

@Bryanany update on that? 🤔

[Meudes]

Interesting question! 🙂
Have you :

using Gaia;

 

?

[Bryan]

You might also check the lightingutils.cs there should be a function in there regarding the lighting profiles 

 

[Bryan]

Also take a look at the GaiaGlobal.cs 

Its in Assets-Procedural Worlds-Gaia-Scripts- Lighting System- Gaia Global

I couldn't access those variables, so I've bought Gaia PRO

Ah yes, the time of day is located in the pro versions.
