H-Res Clouds

Post #1by Corellian » 22.06.2007, 11:39

Hello all,

I'm new here, so I just wanted to ask a question...

I'm doing a lot of planet scenes pictures, and I'm lack of Hi-Res clouds. And I know the Real Time clouds or something like that, I looked around and I found just a normal clouds. I'm looking for really big clouds (I'm going 2000x2000 picture) So it will look good. :P

I tried using the Blue Marble Next Generation Clouds by Fightspit, and it was good (4096x2048 or 8192x4096) but it was too blue, and only worked on Celestia rather than on photoshop. I changed the blend mode to screen, but it was still too blue, I couldn't see the ground and the real planet below.

If anybody knows where I can get a really really big cloud textures, I'll very appreciate it. I really in need of those I'm in a middle of a project. I'm really desperate... :/

Thanks

-Corellian

you can find any size of clouds you can wish. :wink:
But pay attention to choose the max size that can be used with your graphic card. 8O
Bye

Yeah... Thanks, but as I said, I tried that...

I went to that page, I tried all of the clouds, and some are not the size I wanted, and the only one that was good enough was Don Edwards
and Fightspit's cloud maps (second cloud file). But the texture was blue, with the white clouds, and it's not transparent, so you can't see the ground under the cloud layer...
