Soft Clouds

Features

Uses the COZY Desktop Clouds as a base however the Soft Clouds take full advantage of the alpha channel to allow for soft, fluffy clouds that fill your sky. The Soft Clouds have a few additional parameters to allow you easy control over the apparent thickness and transparency of the clouds.

Seven Cloud Types

Cumulus Clouds

Soft and fluffy these voronoi noise based clouds that lead to stylish skies.

Provide the basis for cloud coverage.

Altocumulus Clouds

Super high-altitude clouds that can add a touch of detail to your scene.

Based on the same noise structure as the cumulus clouds but smaller scale.

Chemtrails

More precisely known as "contrails", these clouds are a result of moisture condensing on jet trails.

These clouds are also defined by a texture.

Cirrostratus Clouds

Noisy high-altitude clouds that signify cold temperatures, low humidity and heavy wind.

These clouds are also defined by a texture.

Cirrus Clouds

Windswept stylish clouds that can add a touch of flavor to otherwise clear skies.

These clouds will follow high winds.

Nimbus Clouds

Nimbus clouds are drawn across the screen from the direction of the wind and can be used to denote an incoming storm.

Border Clouds

Define the clouds that appear around the horizon.

Can be additive to add clouds around the horizon, or subtractive to keep the clouds above the players head.

Variables

Name	Type	Description
Wind Speed	Float	Determines how quickly the cloud noise will scroll.
Clipping Threshold	Float	[0-1] Determines the alpha level to clip the clouds to.
Main Scale	Float	Determines the scale of the cloud noise.
Detail Scale	Float	Determines the scale of a secondary smaller cloud noise that modifies the cloud's edges
Detail Amount	Float	Determines the amount that the detail noise will modify the cloud edge
Cloud Thickness	Float	Controls the apparent thickness of the clouds by multiplying the opacity around the edges
Altocumulus Scale	Float	Determines the scale of the altocumulus texture
Cirrostratus Movement Speed	Float	Determines the rotation speed of the cirrostratus texture
Cirrus Movement Speed	Float	Determines the rotation speed of the cirrus texture
Chemtrails Movement Speed	Float	Determines the rotation speed of the chemtrails texture
Chemtrails Texture	Texture	Determines the texture used for the chemtrails
Cirrus Texture	Texture	Determines the texture used for the cirrus clouds
Cirrostratus Texture	Texture	Determines the texture used for the cirrostratus clouds
Altocumulus Texture	Texture	Determines the texture used for the altocumulus clouds
