Additional Details

  • Setting the scale of any layer to -100 will make it infinitely small and remove it from render
  • The less cloud coverage there is the faster it will render. Render speed is directly impacted by how many times light will need to travel through opacity in the clouds. Less layers and smaller layers will bother give speed increases, numerous large layers will render slower.
  • Cloudscapes are meant to work at default scale and position. Everything is aimed at scene center and certain angles can break the effect. Keeping the camera below the clouds is suggested, as well as keeping it between +/- 30000 units on the X and Z axes (which is really quite big). The included volumetric atmosphere is made with a sphere that can be used as a rough guide for best camera locations
