<jaw hits floor> Amazing. Is it possible to change the type of cloud?
eg towering thundercloud.
Are you going to tell us how? Sometime? Please?

"I dont think clowns are funny, in fact I find them quite scary.
I dont know when this fear started, maybe it was when I
went to the circus and a clown killed my Dad."

:)

Saw this on the web somewhere and it made me smile.

I, too, vote for a complex pigment function.

And I am amazed.

Hi Gail Shaw, you recently wrote in povray.binaries.images:

Ditto. Did you all see the animation on the "Current Projects" page of
his website? Wow.....

That's what these groups are for: sharing (help, code, advice...).

Please give us code (I don't mind messy, hard to read, or beta code)

That's it. Enough. I'm learning math!

Hello Chris

I contacted you quite a while ago about your cloud project and have been
waiting
patiently ever since. But how long are you going to keep us in suspense now
you
have given us a taster *g*

It looks very impressive and I cant wait to see more.

Keep up the excellent work.

Dave

Some people here are guessing it's a super-complex pigment, but that
doesn't jive with what I'm seeing here; a pigment like that probably
couldn't be written in 3.1, and in 3.5 it would take a long time to
calculate; plus, it still wouldn't create the effect seen here to put
one pigment on a plane/sphere, unless you used some kind of pretrace
step to generate an imagemap, which I doubt.

I'm guessing you've written an insanely complex mesh macro.

Whatever it is, it's impressive.
