Title: Latest cumulus cloud mod
Post by: WxTech on January 23, 2023, 12:41:32 PM
Update: Jan 24, 2023: It has been pointed out to me that I had idiotically added the superfluous folder, 3do. Corrected path in the updated archive. If you don't want to download again, simply move the Clouds folder into the Effects folder, then delete the now empty 3do folder.

This is my latest state of the cumulus type clouds, as of Jan, 2023. This will appear in my v1.6 effects pack once released, and so if you do later install that effect mod you can delete this.

I offer this now because a member has requested it. And it makes sense to offer this for those who don't use my effect mod.  ;)

Thank you so much for sharing. It looks very cool. Looking forward to your 1.6 pack. Just by this time I will probably finish with the textures of the SKY...
I really hope for it. Recently worked on some turned out extremely beautiful. Maybe then I'll go into the water...

I'll see what I can see there.
In any case, your mod is very cool. Thanks for sharing! ;)

RABIZO,
Is that sccreenshot you posted taken after installing my new cloud? If so, it's not working. You will need to ensure that this new cloud is listed in your mods folder ABOVE any other cloud mod that involves the same files.

I know you use my v1.5 effects pack, which includes the same "Clouds" folder. Unless you intend to replace the files in my existing Clouds folder in that effects mod, you would need to rename this new folder with something like "!!!" added to the beginning of this folder's name, so that it is listed higher than my v1.5 effects folder.

Update: I foolishly added the unnecessary folder, 3do. The correct path is:

YourModsFolderNameHere\WxTech clouds Jan 2023\Effects\Clouds\

The archive has had the path corrected, if you wish to download again.

"Glenn" Thank you.

I moved something like a cloud relationship in "JSGME".
And I installed a new one.
Recently I am using "BAT4.1.3".

If you need a ship launch scene from an aircraft carrier, you may use "VP MOD" only for that scene.
The ship from the parking position cannot be BAT.

I installed a new one and tried to fly to the same location.

YourModsFolderNameHere\WxTech clouds Jan 2023\Effects\Clouds\

The archive has had the path corrected, if you wish to download again.

... sorry WxTech, but there is still a 3do folder in the new DL link, with the same content as the one inside the "Effects" folder ...

Should we delete it ...?

Mick,
That's really strange. I definitely had no 3do folder present when I repacked and uploaded the .7z file...

But if one is present and empty, it's just an inelegant nothing that can be ignored or deleted.

I'll do this again, just for full correctitudinal goodness.  😀

... nope, the 3do folder isn't empty, there's an"Effects" folder inside of it, and the "Clouds" folder is in there ...

... no problem, since it is a duplicate, I'll delete the 3do folder ...  ;)

In hindsight, I should have mentioned that I removed that 3do folder before installing the Mod as Glenn said that it was unnecessary in his post from yesterday at 00:59:09. Anyways, the Mod is really nice mates. :)

So, can the module files go in the 3do folder? Or can the Effect folder go in the 3do folder?

If you already have a mod with folders

  3do/Effects/Clouds/

you could put my files in my Clouds folder into your existing Clouds folder.

If you have

  3do/Effects/

Put my Clouds folder into your Effects folder.

If you have

  3do/

put my Effects folder there.

It pays dividends to understand the game's folder structure, and of course to be comfortable handling folders and files in Windoze.  ;)  This can help you to combine mods and thereby reduce the number of folders in the Mods, #WAW3, etc, folder.
