edit: Actually, I wonder if I could post Josh's internal list here now, seeing as it's been over a year since Josh announced he was done with LT . I can't see that it'd do any harm. It had links to things and Josh's thoughts on what was done/how much, what he did and didn't want to add, and what he...

That is really nice. One could just wonder why those aliens put so many lights to get so few lighting :) Indeed. :lol: But I had a certain tone I was going for. Did you make a model of Chtulu? Nope. I actually got all the graffiti off a Google stock image search. I can't really draw at all. That on...

Har, thanks :twisted: A little more tweaking of the displacement mapping on the lights and it's a bit more sensible. This is turning very good! How do you choose the lighted regions? With a displacement similar to continents? Another topic entirely: I made this for REKT: That is really nice. One co...

I am a bit busy these days, so not tried much but I must say until now I am not very successful. Large part of the problem is that I cannot have nice previews like Silver showed, my previews in the equation editor of Vue are about 5-10mm square only so it is impossible to see anything - the only way...

If I may Sure, this is the main reason to post! Thanks for taking the time to comment!! , the snow is too thick/wide, and WAY too bright. Unless you are intending those blotches as city lights (in which case you want a soft yellow/orange instead, and for them to be far noisier) Snow tipped mountain...

Hmmm, nope, too expensive. But I'll have a further play later. It could also work for starfields! I use billboards for explosions. It works quite nicely, I think. And I hide a source of light in it if required for lighting (usually not, as it is far away). (see some examples in this old thread , th...

I've attached a basic scene with the planet (as a zip file) so if you want something to tinker with, go ahead. There are a couple of hidden objects, rings and atmospheres.... You might have to select the cloud texture again, but it's a Vue standard one so it'll be in your install somewhere :twisted...

...and now for HS's entry in the LTFC : Real nice. Is this a planet you made yourself in the background? I really have to get into the tutorial you posted some time ago. It looks gorgeous! It would be cool to add one luminous layer to have city lights in the dark side... The ship is real nice as wel...

Daaaaaaamn, they look amazing :twisted: I wonder how the dust effect'd do when animated..... Probably expensive to render, but it'd look awesome when the ship's moving! :squirrel: I must twiddle with the atmosphere settings more. I currently roll with 90% of the light coming from the sun already, I...

Ah yeah, that idea worked pretty well. There's a point light in there and a spotlight with a 2.5 degree angle buried inside a torus. That'd work for exhausts :twisted: So, back home I got a shot at your idea. I wanted to have something that is brighter at a certain distance of the exhaust, and then...

I was partway though a story but it was a bit boring, so I've gone a different route. Just doing a decent quality render now then I'll get my stuff posted :twisted: Looking forward... I am a bit silent lately as I had to spent 2 weeks at my father’s place in emergency (he is doing well again but it...

Hehehe, nothing more sinister than 3 different lights either side of each engine 'fin'.... So 18 all together. 6 of them are volumetric point lights, that gives the spherical element of the light. 6 of them are quadratic spot lights with a spread of 87.5 degrees, so it'll spread out to the sides. 6...

Is there a link to the new map somewhere? Must be getting old...

Anyway, you can add me in Frenkendorf, Switzerland, on the top of the village.
