How's the clouds coming along?

No improvement, cherokee69. I tried a change in how I sampled, and while it got a little better, it was still full of parallel sampling lines visible near the horizon, i.e. how you'd normally see them.

I'm going to have to come up with a very different virtual geometry. The math is beyond what I can work out in my head. I need to get out pencil and paper and derive the equations I need and it will not be easy. 

Last weekend was my daughter's high school graduation, so I didn't do that, and this week I have a pretty heavy work schedule.

I'll keep you posted. 


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)

No problem. I know you'll figure it out when you have the time.

:b_stunned:

I almost fell out of my chair reading this. One thing I thought absolutely could not be done in Poser was volumetric clouds of any kind in any way. I've always wanted to be able to do this in Poser. I'd love to have volumetric clouds for ground fog and the kinds of clouds that drift low over the trees in the high mountain forests on cold mornings.

Months later,BB, any equations worked out, or is this shelved for good?
