Hey all,
I've spent the last couple of weeks trying to create some good Cumulus clouds in Vue. Here's the latest I've come up with. Interesting enough, these are NOT SPECTRAL clouds. In fact these are rendered in the standard TerraPak atmosphere.
Course, they're not yet ready for prime time, but I think a 'kit' can be put together which can do realistic clouds, smoke, rain effects, etc.. for Vue users. Is this a good idea?
(These clouds are 4 separate terrains...can you believe it?)

Great looking clouds especially since they're created using terrains.
I think the kit idea would be most welcome as a pkg.

I like all that cloud detail!
Throw lightening into the mix and if your objects are not to heavy, they should be popular - just in time for the holidays, right? Maybe water ripples for the rain too?

Looks great Chipp. You should send some images of these to E-on and ask them to see if it's possible to enhance the spectral cloud functions to create detailed looking cumulus clouds like these.

Brilliant clouds and I feel certain a pkg like that would be well recieved by Vue-ers everywhere.. ...
Once
in a while I look around,
I see
a sound
and
try to write it down
Sometimes
they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again

I've been aching for some really tall and detailed cumulus. Would love to see more.
