Title: Atmosphere Shadow
Post by: darthvader on January 30, 2008, 04:43:07 PM
The scene I rendering is from a low orbit and two mountains stand above the rest of the terrain. I have the sun very low on the horizon and want to know how I could make shadows in the atmosphere coming off of the mountain peaks. If anybody could help that would make my day.

would the haze height have to go above where I want the shadows or all the way above the camera?

no just enough to create the shadow....set it maybe 500m below the terrain height!
