Konfusion Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 I'm making a mod that includes buildings floating in mid air... I would like to have clouds for them to be floating on, as this is a mages guild, and it seems the kind of thing mages would do...any help? or, better yet, can anyone point me to a cloud mesh-download?

WarKirby3333 Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 I may be wrong, but I don't think there are any cloud meshes. I believe the sky is actually just a texture. Sound like a cloud would be pretty difficult to make in 3DS Max too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisdragon425 Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 It would, especially since clouds are of random sizes and shapes, and having it look realistic would need several thousand polys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I knew the sky was a huge texture, I was just hoping someone may have made one or two anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarKirby3333 Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 If you really want a cloud, Peregrine will probably do it for the right price. WarKirby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using multiple at one spot could make a thick cloudlike thing. Would give a performance hit though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarKirby haha Peregrine will never live that down. sounds like an awesome mod, like to see it happen. I agree with Warkirby, if you can get the almost $4000 3DSMax, it will take many hours making clouds. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konfusion Posted September 26, 2006 Author Share Posted September 26, 2006 hmmm... there's a mesh for stone and normal dust clouds... once my mod manager regains the capability of extracting, I'll check if that works... it should be pretty cool, seeing as it's a scrolling effect and all, it'll look like the building's trying hard to stay in the air, and the dust is coming from it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
