Onyx pictures

A basic vegetation picture just to illustrate use of cloud "localise" new feature...  (http://forums.planetside.co.uk/index.php?topic=10391.30)

Looks great! Splendid work!
If the shadows would reveal a tad bit more detail and the mist noise-free then this would be perfect
Where are the models in the foreground from? They look very nice as well.

A basic vegetation picture...

Basic ? Onyx who are you    Very nice picture !
I think the only thing that gives it away is the ground color-variation(lack of) on the right side and the typical clean 3d render look and little plant variation.
And because it is posted here on the TG2 forum!
I have seen many strange and 3D looking photos in many places.
If this was in one of this places i would say how it looks like a 3D render but i would accept it as a photo.

Hi

Wonderful!
Like a Foto.

Only the excellent plants in the foreground need a little more differences in colors and the ground on the right side too. But anyway realy an excellent image!!!


ciao

Basic ... because as you said there is not enough work on vegetation variation and no composition.

Regarding "strong" shadows it was intentional because canyon surface has 1 color only

So is the new localize function able to constrain the clouds within the canyon walls, rather than have it intersect as would be the case with the public TG2?

No, the localize function is a bit like a built-in distance-shader.
See Matt's post here, it's the 2nd item: http://forums.planetside.co.uk/index.php?topic=10391.msg114506#msg114506
What you describe would be the 4th item of the list.
Honestly I don't really see the localization effect in this particular image.
