Planetary environment

[omegear]

Hey guys,
so anyone tried to play with the plantery environement ? I don't understand how it works at all

It's important to understand that this is a clever environmental map, not a 3D object in space or any kind of volumetric atmosphere. Take a look at this thread from a few months ago.

We were exploring the Planetary Environment in Octane Studio, and while the C4D interface is slightly different, we dug pretty deeply into what's really going on, regardless of which host tool you are using.

You have to set your altitude to an insane number because C4D uses small units of measure by default. Once you do that, everything else was pretty self explanatory once you get a basic texture loaded in.
