This gives very fast and reasonably realistich clouds (I think it's very
suitable for animations, where you don't have the time to see the flaws :))

It's not really finished, but maybe someone may find it useful :)

Hi All,

Does anyone know how to get the "boxed-look" on HF's in povray?
My HF's are ultra thin...and I like to add some thickness to them. I
remember that with the DOS versions I always got that boxed look, but with
the win version I'm not able to get it right.

Thanks

Have you tried a difference?

// Code not tested
difference {
	box {
		<0, 0, 0>,
		<1, 1, 1>
	}

	heightfield {
		your_heightfield
	}
}

Hope that helps,

Bonsai
