Rus_Andrey, Hero of the Clouds! - Bee - 11.06.2008

This little tweak deserves a mention I think. The clever fellow Rus_Andrey recently began experienting with the DATA.cld file that seems to control the volume of the clouds. He's really onto something, so I thought it needed to be given an audience here. Online players will wet themselves and run a mile from this, but everyone else will gasp and turn into screenshot artists.

It would be good if as many people as possible experiment with the settings. That way we can figure out how to adjustfor the best possible effects. 'Andrey already mentions that BASE_R_DISP set to 2.5 gives a huge boost to the volume of clouds in Hazy weather. By experimenting, I found that NGHBR_ABSRB controls the whiteness of the clouds the higher the number the whiter they are.
Default is .75 Changing to 1.75 looks very nice indeed.

Heres some screenies:

NGHBR_ABSRB 1.75 Poor weather...

Very pleased with this. Nice one Rus_Andrey :wink:

It embraces Flushy's cloud-mod like a long, lost lover. :wink:

- Tigershark - 11.06.2008

Wow, these new combinations overwrite the existing ones, like "good weather" etc...??



Wow, this is first class mate!! Is it possible for one to combine certain sets to make a pure overcast...also too, I am assuming this hurts FPS a bit...??
