After messing around with making the water in my pool and pond in Camp Bravo, I decided to see about making some clouds move around.
This made me pause and think. Simply putting in a plane over head would work, that's what we see in Kemo. But I wanted to do something more like in Relto, as far as the sky goes (the do the Kemo thing just below the island of course).
However, just putting in a plane wouldn't work either, even if it was curved, as the clouds would appear from no where and disappear into no where. That wouldn't look good.
So I took my sky dome, and in edit mode, selected the ring right at the cliff top levels. The ring extends in Z just above and below the cliff tops.
I then duplicated and seperated them into their own mesh, and then gave them the animated texture of some light clouds.
What I got when I linked in was some whispy (gotta work on my cloud texture that I made in 30 seconds in GIMP
) looking clouds moving in a clockwise motion around the Age. But they are subtle, and look like something you might see on a cloudy day here in RL. It impressed the heck out of me!
