Clouds_Basic

Build volumetric clouds, an HDR sun, and environment lighting in TiXL.

Sunlit volumetric clouds rendered in TiXL

Version used · TiXL 4.4.0.4 alpha.

Clouds_Basic uses stock TiXL operators and project-local HLSL to build a sky with independently adjustable stratus, cumulus, and cirrus. A camera previews the sky and SetEnvironment uses it to light a scene.

  • Quick Start gets the finished project into TiXL.
  • Build From Scratch walks through the graph one checkpoint at a time.
  • Shader explains the HLSL, from panorama coordinates to cloud lighting.
