Description
In trying to come up with a decent fog for the image, I applied the following:
� Selected Low altitude Cumulus 3/D for the fog.
� Adjusted the clouds to a low altitude setting.
� Placed the mouse over the preview window in a position that best suited the fog's position. Copied this 'Centre' position and pasted it into the 'Centre' for the clouds.
� 'Checked' the 'Localise' box.
� Reduced the cloud's depth to a minimum setting.
� At this point, the bottom line of fog appeared 'too' sharp. Like, where is the 'fuzzy' zone setting?
� Well, such a setting is there; but, it is called 'Falloff (-0.1). And, it's default setting is 1. To smooth out the transition of fog to surface, increase this setting. In the case of this image we took it to 1.45 for a very nice fog to surface transition.
All of the vegetation here are Walli's models; and, for the 'Pronghorn' animals, I thank 'Thelby' for the models. Using these little guys came from an idea presented by 'Dune'.
Enjoy,
Bob

Very good choices all around. Get a sense of real depth. It almost seems I'm behind a bush watching the goats.

A beautiful, quiet moment watching these guys look for some grub, or maybe just checking things out. The rock details and plant placement are excellent. The atmosphere with the fog gives the scene that "cool" feeling.

Great attempt Bob, almost like the highlands... a wee bit more to the ground and I'd say you were spot on. Very country feel to this...

Amazing and very realistic render! The mist looks wonderful. And thanks a lot for the info about the fog/clouds - I just can't find any options for a "center" of the clouds or a "localise" box - where in TG2 can I find them?

Nice job on the scale- animal size and placement is very good, and the overall composition is excellent. I like the hazy/dusty atmosphere a lot.
