Title: Cloud Layers
Post by: CRASH on February 23, 2001, 10:41:00 AM

     Any chance we'll get cloud layers, say at 15k and then 17k.  Would look really cool flying with clouds above and below (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)  
     Wind currents at ground level to interfere with takeoff and landing would also be really immersive  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

10bears did something similiar to your suggestion, with the Stalingrad terrain, and it looked great!  The arena was smaller than HTC arenas, so the frame rate was better, even with all the clouds!

And once implemented, your handle would suddenly become much more literal. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
