This is perfect...a great idea.  Too bad it doesn't work in Daz Studio or I would grab it up.    :biggrin:

Thanks... Wish I had this earlier when I was trying to create a winter scene in Poser...

Smiles are contagious... Pass it on!

Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday

 

Thought you would like to see some use for the snow making machine... I was thinking that snow isn't completely white but has bit of bluish gray in it.  Hope you can enlighten me on where to change a small portion of the shader...

I am using Poser 7. Think this is on the spot for next year Xmas card.

No grey and no blue, the snow shader use reflection ;-)

I agree with you; should look a tad bluer. But I think you can achieve that in your lighting :o).

As Anthanasius says, the shader has a reflection node which will give you the variation from pure white that you want. Your lighting will also affect the apparent colour of the snow. I also find that ambient occlusion in the IBL light gives a nice tonal quality to the snow. I usually set it to 10 inches or more. Please note that one of the check boxes on the user interface is 'Do it quicker', which switches off the reflection node. This is intended for preview rendering while developing your scene. The final render should have that box unchecked in order to activate the reflection node. On the other hand, I have plans to include a colour picker in a future release so that it can be used for things like cake icing etc. In the meantime, lighting, ambient occlusion and reflection will achieve what you want, I think.

Here's an example render using a pure white light but a blue sky dome for the snow to reflect.

Yep, it is cool ;o).

For some reason, I'm envisioning a volcano and a nice coating of volcanic ash. I think the doomsday stuff is getting to me...lol.

Pompeii anyone? Any chance of a pyroclastic cloud generator? ;o)

Laurie

Way cool! I just keep forgetting to get it DL'd
