What is the difference in use between the zDepth setting and the spherical? Which is better for clouds, for instance?

Calico, I believe the z-depth is planar vs spherical of "spherical".
I've been using spherical when I restrict clouds and it works well. Just make sure you play with the distance values appropriately, else you could get a sharp line where the clouds are or aren't depending upon how you have it set up.
LOL @moodflow, I understood that. But, didn't know what the big restrictions might be either way. I noticed a small change when switchign back and forth between the two, but nothing prolific. Thanks for the advice about the sharp line. I'm messing with it now. :)
