Title: Clouds in the Corona Renderer 6 New Sky Model
Post by: John.McWaters on 2020-09-01, 18:29:09

At the :25 mark in the promotional video below for the new sky model, it shows a sky with Corona sun that has some clouds in it. Is that a feature as part of the Corona Sun environment map, or is that a sun that is being used in conjunction with an HDRI?

The clouds are not part of the Corona Sky, which is always cloudless. I believe they are OpenVDB clouds in this case :) Yep, OpenVDB through the CoronaVolumeGrid, confirmed.

I used CoronaVolumeGrid with VDB clouds loaded. There's something like 3 of them in there.
