Manage scenes

Each of your available scenes is shown as a card. Open the card to edit that scene, from there you can preview it or publish it too.

Create a scene #

Click Create scene to create a new scene. This may take a minute or two, as it downloads dependencies and sets up a folder on your local machine with everything it needs. This will then open your scene in the Scene Editor .

Click the three dots on a scene’s card and click Duplicate to make a copy of an existing scene.

To rename your scene, open it and click the pencil icon to change the Name field and other properties.

Import a scene #

The scene manager displays the scenes it finds in the default path on your machine.

To add a scene that is elsewhere on your local disk, click Import scene and find the path to the project folder. The imported scene will now be available as a new card in the scene manager screen.

The imported scene does not get moved in your local disk.

📔 Note: Do not manually rename or move the folder of an imported scene directly from your file manager. The Scene Editor will no longer be able to find the imported scene in its new path.

Scenes you created on the web editor are stored in the cloud. To work on these scenes from the desktop Scene Editor, you must export the scene from the Web Editor, unzip it into a folder, and then import it on the desktop Scene Editor.

Delete a scene #

In the scene selector screen, press the three dots icon and select Delete.

This removes the scene from your Scene Editor home screen, but doesn’t delete the files from your machine.

If you wish to delete the project files, you must do this manually. By default projects created via the Scene Editor are kept inside a .decentraland folder under your user directory. You can navigate here by clicking the three dots on a project card and selecting Open folder.
