Color looks. Your other settings stay as they are.

Seam

Colour of the seam of light on the horizon.

Ceiling

Colour of the upper cloud deck.

Floor

Colour of the lower cloud deck.

Background

Colour of the sky where no cloud or light reaches.

Free shaders, block studios and Export Kits are available without an account. Pro items are coming soon; their demos, studios and downloads will open in a later release. Purchasing is not open yet.

Deck gap1

Half the height of the clear air between the ceiling and the floor of cloud. A narrow gap closes the seam to a line; a wide one opens a corridor.

Deck depth2

How deep each deck of cloud is. Light from the gap is lost with depth into it, so a deep deck has a dark body behind its lit face.

Deck balance0.55

Which deck carries more cloud. 0.5 is even; higher loads the ceiling.

Cloud density1.4

Extinction of the cloud. Thin cloud lets the seam's glow through; dense cloud stands in front of it.

Turbulence0.8

How far the cloud field is warped before it is sampled — the curl and tear in the masses.

Filaments1

Strength of the ridged octave that draws thin bright strands on the masses.

Streak1.8

How far the cloud is stretched along the flight, so it streams past rather than tumbling.

Seam width0.008

Width of the bright seam of light on the horizon.

Haze reddening0.6

How much the far haze is reddened: short wavelengths are scattered out of the seam's light first, so the distance goes warm.

Seam light2.4

Brightness of the seam and the haze it lights.

Deck light3.2

How brightly the cloud decks themselves glow.

Lightning0.45

How often a flash lights a deck from deep inside, and how bright. The glow comes through the cloud in front of it; each flash is a train of return strokes, which is why it flickers.

Horizon point

0.5

Where the seam meets the horizon on screen — the point the flight heads for and the clouds stream out of.

Horizon tilt0°

Rolls the horizon, in degrees.

Cloud scale1

Size of the cloud features. Larger values make fewer, bigger masses.

Flight speed0.5

How fast you fly between the clouds; 0 holds still.

Pointer steer0.5

How far the pointer steers the camera, turning the view a few degrees toward it.
