It's interesting: I started some initial cloud stuff a while ago, which still is the basis for our current cloud setup I believe. About six months ago, Erik Hofman sent the url for Mark Harris' paper to the list, and I found out that this Guy actually works at UNC and lives in Chapel Hill, while in the meantime, I moved to Duke and live in Durham, NC, which is about 12 miles Chapel Hill. Unfortunately, my time is still very limited, but I'll have a look at the source later today and see what it's like. It would be an interesting opportunity to work with the guy, especially because now that we're virtually living around the corner.

[Flightgear-devel] Realistic cloud rendering
Mark Harris has a real time realistic cloud rendering web page which has been mentioned here before. The screen shots are quite spectacular: http://www.cs.unc.edu/~harrism/clouds/ Mark just sent me a quick note to say he has released the source code for his demo. It is available here: http://www.cs.unc.edu/~harrism/SkyWorks/ If any of our developers out there are looking for their next project to work on, this could be a really interesting one to look at. This will probably be a fairly good sized chunk to bite off, but if we can get this running in FlightGear it would be really cool. *Lot's* of geek points for who ever can pull this off. :-) Regards, Curt. -- Curtis Olson IVLab / HumanFIRST Program FlightGear Project Twin Cities[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Minnesota http://www.menet.umn.edu/~curt http://www.flightgear.org ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel

I'm still trying to find the code that does the actually cloud gen. Maybe it would be easier for someone to work from the paper and just use the code as a reference.
