Been testing alot of things...crashed my game a few times...got weird results another times...anyway.

Anyone have figured out what is the function of each parameter??. Cant find it out

[MrOblongo]

Got that with this settings: (Poor)

Code:

TYPE CIRROCUMULUS
    MAT_DENSITY    0.4
    NGHBR_ABSRB    1.00
    PLANE_DISP    2
    INTERSECT    0
    TIER        2
    Z_TO_X        1.0
    N_PER_SQ    10
    DZ_Z_RATIO    0.15
    BASE_R_DISP     5
    LEVELS_MUST_BE_HERE
    LEVELS        1
    LEVEL 0
        F_UP    13.00
        F_DOWN    13.0
        F_CEN    0.0
        F_SIDE    0.0
        F_DIR    0.0
        DENSITY    5
        K_THIN    0
        K_FADE  3
        END_LEVEL
        END_GENERATOR

Good FPS
PS: Edited the NGHBR_ABSRB to 1.00, clouds looks way too dark with 0.15

looks nice with low cloud...like a rain shower......

[MrOblongo]

F_DOWN command seems to be the one for the dispersion in height. Set it to 10 and you will get like 3 layers of clouds. From ground to like 5000m (depending on the BASE_R_DISP). Density speak for itself. Density 2 and will get transparent clouds, set it to 6 and will get dense clouds.

So...
This is only with 1 Level.
Will keep testing.

Oh, and tried this in multiplayer last night at it dont seems to work, does the other people have to be using the mod?, ot this simply dont run on MP?.

in MP there is some kind of host override function, were you host ?

I disagree. Last Wednesday, I hosted a mission for 6 players and none of them saw this new clouds. The override function works only with default conf.ini clouds settings.

Rest of players don't see this wonderful clouds.

[MrOblongo]

Another Found...
K_FADE works only for the LEVEL 1 or MORE, not for LEVEL 0. Its the size of the clouds, specially in Hazy.

[MrOblongo]

Any news on this?

No MP at all?
Any new config?

Anything?

[lowfighter]

Is this mod working with "typeclouds=0" in the conf.ini?

[MrOblongo]

Is this mod working with "typeclouds=0" in the conf.ini?

I think its only for typeclouds=1

[choctaw111]

Wow! I haven't tried this yet, but it looks amazing! Flying through clouds like this is one of the neatest things you can do. Flight sim enthusiasts have dreamed of stuff like this since the beginning. FSX, look out

[lowfighter]

Thanks!

Hi to one and all... Being new to this modding thing and having DL'd Hurri,Spit,Beau, + a couple of other wonderful aircraft I now find I cant go much further.

I really like the cloud MODs , I have spent hours reading the posts and imput from everybody. But it wont work for me .... Flushy's Mod didn't do anything and Rus-Andrey's refuses to download...They both look fantastic and really bring the sim alive.

As I said, I've read and re-read the lot. I've checked my config and Mods folder, and when trying to download I altered my pop up blocker and fire wall settings . Can anyone please tell me if the link to the file (Zshare, Hero of the clouds) is still active ....I will not be beaten :x !! Thanks for any help.

[rollnloop]

1st post zshare download link active.

[Lanius]

Thanks... Yeah it takes me zshare but I seem to be going round in circles.... The file wont download.

Ho Hum I'll give it a go on my other PC later .

What do they say "more than one way to skin a cat".

2nd Post .... sounds like Royal mail lol

Cheers mate
