In this app, you can freely explore all 15 maps created by Cat Studio within a VR environment. This app allows users—whether they are developers considering the use of Unity assets, or simply individuals interested in 3D environments and VR content— to experience the atmosphere of the map’s world. **▶** [**CatStudio Asset – Map Catalog Page**](https://catstudio.jp/xr_mapcatalog_en.html) ## What is CatStudio Asset – Map Catalog? “CatStudio Asset – Map Catalog” is a VR viewer app designed for experiencing 3D maps—part of CatStudio’s “Map Series” of Unity assets—on the Meta Quest. Typically, when searching for maps on the Unity Asset Store, you likely rely on screenshots or promotional videos.However, images and videos alone may not always be sufficient to grasp the size of a building, the width of its passageways, or the overall scale of the space. In this app, you can stand within the map and look around from your own perspective, allowing you to gauge the scale and atmosphere of the space. ## The appeal of 3D maps—revealed only through VR ### 1. Experience the space at full scale In the VR environment, you can view the map from an eye-level height corresponding to a person 170 cm tall. This allows you to experience the scale of the space—such as building heights, road widths, and distances to surrounding objects—which is often difficult to gauge from flat, 2D images. When creating games or VR content in Unity, this can also serve as a useful reference for understanding how the map appears from the player’s perspective. ### 2. Check the lighting and the atmosphere of the space One of the elements that significantly influences the impression of a 3D map is lighting. In this app, you can stand within the map to observe how light enters, how shadows are rendered, and the overall atmosphere of the space.Additionally, you can adjust settings such as the light angle and shadow quality via the Options menu. ※ In-app image quality has been adjusted to ensure smooth performance on Meta Quest. As a result, the visuals may appear different from how they look when using Unity Assets on a PC or other platforms. ![gallery_options Experience Unity Asset maps in VR!
