john1001 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 the position of the clouds in relation to the horizon is realistic. Good variation and geo distribution of the clouds. Successful 3D broken clouds on picture 3. Very Nice , waiting to see some cirrus clouds if possible , Thank you again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Kitten Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 In the following screenshots you will see some artifacts and rough edges, horizon and ground low rez blending - and do not pay attention to the ground shadows. This and a lot of other stuff is being worked on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainDave Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 They are amazing! Wow you guys are doing an amazing job. This looks great. Really like the new scattered clouds.

john1001 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 WOW, Very volumetric 3D clouds ! I see that every cloud formation has its own personality. I really appreciate this variation of clouds ! Really beautiful, professional work , thank you , 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john1001 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Hi Captain, I'm currently using x1.09 S , I just noticed that the clouds shadows on the ground are too dark. it's so dark that we can't see objects or ground textures on a daytime in broken or overcast conditions. I really hope it will be fixed on x1.10 and you will adjust the shadow lighten on the ground to be displayed like on real life. best regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clouds have always moved. 1.10 will be no different except that clouds form are affected by the wind to some extent as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see that problem at all. But. In any case the whole atmosphere model is reworked for 1.10 so comparing 1.10 to any previous version will be hard.

john1001 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Beautiful shadows, Better than x1.09 s . the shadows have more natural look now. The intensity of light shadows will be variable or fixed ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The intensity of light shadows will be variable or fixed ? Look... xEnviro is a complete environment engine with its own atmosphere that calculates the visuals based on the light from the sun and molecule calculations. This means that everything you see is variable based on sun's position in relation to weather and altitude data. Call it our form of ray tracing if you will. (same but different) Light is affected by the atmosphere it travels through. This has an effect on everything. Even seasonal and mountain snow. Shadows look more real and natural because they are cast from volumetric clouds. The shape of the cloud shapes the shadow. Further more they will be effected by haze and other environment effects (which has been removed in the last pics). It's all complex but getting less fragile for every step we complete. I guess what I am saying is that you can not compare 1.09 with 1.10. It's two very different environment engines now where 1.10's atmosphere has been reworked from the ground up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Kitten Posted October 9, 2018 Author Share Posted October 9, 2018 Allright I don't think I need to repeat that these are WORK IN PROGRESS.... We are aware of the artifacts and low resolution on ground and objects edges.
