Add a <strong>Spatial<\/strong> node as the root node of your scene. This will act as the container for your 3D objects.<\/p>\n<h3>Creating the Cube<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>MeshInstance:<\/strong> Add a <em>MeshInstance<\/em> node as a child of the Spatial node. This will hold your 3D cube model.<\/li>\n<li><strong>CubeMesh:<\/strong> Click on the <em>Mesh<\/em> property of the MeshInstance and select <em>CubeMesh<\/em> from the options. This generates a basic cube model.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Configuring Materials<\/h3>\n<p>To apply materials and textures to your cube, click on the <em>Material<\/em> property in the <em>MeshInstance<\/em> inspector. Choose <strong>New SpatialMaterial<\/strong> to create a new material.
