It is called Red Sky at night.

Rough Guide to the Atmopshere Editor – Part 6 – Clouds Tab

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

This part of the guide refers to the clouds tab of the Atmosphere editor. It is also related to three other pages of reference material which show what each of the cloud types looks like when rendered in each of the three models they are available in.

See the Guides page for these reference guides

You will notice that the cloud tab with the spectral mode has a few more options than the standard and volumetric models, as such the spectral model will be covered later in the guide in part 7.

The cloud animation area will be largely ignored for this guide.

Saturday, February 13th, 2010

Part 5 of the guide relates to the sky tab in the atmosphere editor. All the renders on this page are at 800×600 and are rendered at Broadcast Quality.

The sky tab is a page that is only available in the Standard Model of Atmospheres. The default atmosphere is used and set to the Standard model, the result is as follows:

Rough Guide to the Atmopshere Editor – Part 4 – Lighting Models 2

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

This fourth part will cover the remainder of the settings from the Light tab as the first part would be too long otherwise. For the first part of this guide the default spectral model will be used. There will be an inclusion of a cone and a cube as shown in the render below. All renders are at 800×600 on the “broadcast” quality setting.

Rough Guide to the Atmopshere Editor – Part 1 – Model Types

Monday, February 8th, 2010

This is a continuation of my Rough Guide series which proved to be very popular for the water editor to Vue 7. This series will focus on the atmosphere editor of Vue 7 Complete in a similar style (If anyone wants to buy me Vue 8, please, feel free :D ) I make the assumption that you own vue/have the ple and have a rough knowledge of how it works. Although some of it may seem patronising or obvious, this is not my intention. I just want to write down how it works and what it does.

This series is being completed for the purpose of me learning the atmosphere editor and in the hope that while doing so, others can learn from what I write. At present i feel that one of my weakest parts of using vue is the atmospheres I use.

If you notice any mistakes or omissions please let me know and I will amend them!

The first part of this series will be on the model types that are allowed with vue, although this will probably not be the most scientific of tutorials I aim to show working examples of how the different settings alter the scene.

Farmhouse Reworking

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010

I have reworked some parts of my farmhouse image that I was unhappy with, with the results below. I am almost happy with the results now, but I am tempted to redo some of the farmhouse itself and make it look more derelict.

Modelling in Lightwave 9.6 – Landscape Created in Vue 7 Complete

OBJ export solution…

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Rather a quick problem solution today which was nice.

A chap from the newtek forums named Kuzey suggested that I tried to cut the front of the house away (and other affected areas) and paste it back into the mesh in lightwave without re-merging the points would stop the error, which was more than likely a smoothing error.

The model was exported as OBJ and now works correctly with Vue.

Thanks very much to kuzey!

Anyone who wants the model of the house can take it free, it is also going to be up on renderosity freestuff later this evening.

It would be nice if anyone was to use it if they would post a link to their image in the comments section.
