jzeitlin Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knows what happened to the volumetric overcast clouds in X Plane 9 and if anyone has any ideas how to make them more realistic. They are like transparent until you go through them and then they are like thick and dense. It doesn't make any sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter T. Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 you cant change that, its x-plane's shader coding I guess, same thing hapens to x-plane 10's default, I guess Laminar go lazy at the cloud's rendering and simply plop a fog shader when you enter the clouds....

jzeitlin Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Is there any sort of a plugin? I flew a flight in V8 just to see if it happens there and it doesn't. The clouds are like 1000X better in V8 then V9, and I remember them being better back when I first installed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Hotel Posted March 26, 2014 Report Share Posted March 26, 2014 Hi! Am away from my computer, but I have some enhancement installed which make XP9 clouds even nicer. Just looked and there is another add-on around: Realistic Clouds X-Plane 9+ Have not tried it, but looks great, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzeitlin Posted April 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Is it for mac? I know that the pay ware plugin is PC only. If you could send me a link to it that would be awesome!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jzeitlin Posted April 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 I have this already. I need something that makes overcast clouds more realistic because they are transparent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
