REALLY advanced sky system...possible? - 09/13/06 18:13
I am wondering if an extremely detailed and advanced sky system is possible in 3dgs. Here are some things I hope to achieve.
1. REAL beams of light coming through the clouds
2. The clouds cast a real shadow
3. The clouds actually change shape and formation
4. When the player walks from a light area to a dark area, the screen gets bright for a second so their "eyes" can adjust.
5. The "thinner" sections of the clouds are brighter than the "thicker" parts
6. REAL sunlight where if you stare into the sun then the screen gets bright.
I got these ideas while paying attention to the sky system in Enchanted Arms. I am wondering if this is possible in 3DGS. I have included a picture of what I am hopefully trying to achieve. Pay close attention to the details.
