Chris Paulson Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Then I would have to use a really huge model which is my skydome? No, all you have to do is have a sphere big enough to cover the camera. It's an illusion with the sky dome as you place it in the background world. So you have: - background - for sky dome normal - for all other rendering foreground - for transparency Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canardia Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 It shouldn't be bigger than 1x1x1 meters, because then it fits perfectly around the camera (which is infinitely small, as it's a point). If you make it bigger, let's say 200x200x200 meters, then it still looks the same, but the FPS goes down.

Canardia Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Why would performance decrease?No idea, I just remember that this happened when I tried different skybox sizes. It was way back in LE 2.0 though, maybe it behaves differently today.

Flexman Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 How did you implement the cables from the electricity pylons? Are they a 3D model you load in or do you have some neat script that generates them? I 5* your video. Gate to the Minds Eye stuff but real-time.

Michael Betke Posted March 8, 2010 Author Share Posted March 8, 2010 I wish I had a script. I planned out the cables and did a modular set fitting to my terrain. Having a very basic spline function in the editor would be great.
