Title: Vector and new sun light tests
Post by: Henry Blewer on April 17, 2012, 02:52:25 PM
I tried using the new vector displacement shader. The red atmosphere render uses the new lighting, atmosphere only and surfaces only.

since you jumped right in... What is it that your testing exactly? Whats the benefit that you see?

I have not figured out the new Vector shader. But the lighting options, I can see real benefits from these. Being able to turn off a sunlight in the atmosphere will make illuminating the landscape much easier.

The result is great njeneb.
I really like the sense of scale in this.
The first one in my favorite.
Some work on the foreground and it will be perfect.
Good job
