kwhitaker Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 thanks Martin, i get so evolved in the animation, it's good to take a break and see all the great work, that all you other artist and animators have done. I am looking for a way to put low misty fog in the next scene, because the elves are going into the swampy part of Dreadwood's forest. I've been playing around with smoke, but I wonder if their is a better way. thanks for any help. Katt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use a Rectangular shape (Sun), and pull the corners of the bounding volume where you want the low-lying mist to be. Mark (mtpeak2) Skodacek did some GREAT eerie mist for Yoop's Castle in TWO - ask him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Katt, you might want to run a blog in the "Special Topics" area here on the forum. I'm sure other people would like to follow your movie-making experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtpeak2 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Mike, I use the smoke material from the AM cd. The settings I used probably wouldn't mean much, most of them depend on scale of the model. The main thing is to lower the initial velocity, gravity and spin to minimize the sprite movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
