Clouds Editor

Cloud Layers

• Draw Clouds: Checkbox to switch clouds on/off.
• Cover: Cloud cover. Values between 30 and 70 give good results.
• Density: Cloud density - dense cloud layers appear darker
• Size: Controls average cloud size. Low values give a lot of small clouds, higher values produce a smaller number of larger clouds.
• Cloud Plane Offsets: These control the appearance of the clouds - change these to generate different cloud formations..
• Stratus/Cumulus: Cloud type. Use stratus clouds for higher clouds, cumulus for lower ones.
• Clouds Colors: Colors used in clouds - areas in direct sunlight will tend towards the lighter color, whilst areas in shadow will use the darker color. Usually set to white and a shade of grey.
