Hey thanks Vassago, yeah I'd like to see that. I'm not happy with any of the clouds I've seen people make with Afterburn. Looking into Dreamscape today, maybe its patterns will be better. J.I.Styles, did you see the SOTC clouds move? Or are they just in the cubemap? <edit> Some good pics here of Lock On. Looks like a combo…
Getting closer. Kind of looking more like terrain than clouds though. Using parallax now, but it's real sensitive, seems to require lots of small tweakage. Looks good in motion, even though it's a simple UV scroll.
scoobydoofus: only when lots of light affect it, if its just one (say sun for the clouds) it should be no problem to render in one pass wondering what would "render elements" when rendering such a particle return ? cool idea with the lights.
It isn't too slow for what I'm doing, works OK. Messing with parallax right now, kinda cool since it adds a swirly/billowy animation to the clouds as they pass overhead. But the swirlies also cause some ugly banding, not happy with it yet. Anyone have Afterburn and willing to do a lighting test for me? I'm curious if it…
