Collision meshes can be added to any model in an external 3D modeling tool like Blender. Large models like houses often include these, they are usually a lot simpler geometrically than the original shape, as this implies much less computational requirements. Stairs typically use a simplified collision mesh like a ramp to make it easier to climb. See [colliders](/creator/3d-modeling/colliders) for more details.

## Lighting conditions

The in-world time of day has a big impact on how 3D models look. The color of the light source changes subtly, having a bluish tint at night, and a reddish tint during sunrise and sunset. The direction of the light also moves across the sky, casting shadows in different directions.

Check that your scene looks good at all times of day by switching the game clock to different values. Open the settings panel, and in the **General** tab set the **skybox time** to any time you prefer. If this slider is grayed out, make sure that the **Dynamic skybox** option is disabled.

Your 3D model's materials might not look the same as they did in the modeling tool you created it with. This is to be expected, as all 3D rendering engines have subtle differences in how they deal with light and materials.
