Realtime cloud generation

Hey guys! Just wanted to show this video a buddy shared about a plugin for maya tha creates procedural realtime geometry based clouds and renders super fast.
maybe after seeing it someone wants to code an addon for blender that is similar…

Just take it as inspiration :slight_smile:

That’s pretty neat, especially the real time aspect and easy tweaking of settings.

Addon… don’t think so. I am going to guess it was not made in python. Also I am guessing that a GPU accelerated voxelizer is something we won’t have access to in the Blender python API any time soon. Something like this would have to be integrated with Blender, unless we saw the creation of a proper C/C++ plugin API. Also there are the GPL issues that always come up.

Maybe someday in the far, far future.

Oh, it’s for Maya. I was already getting excited for Blender :frowning:

I’d buy an add-on that allows creating cloudscapes in Blender.
