Hi,
when playing Erik's new specular reflections (thanks Erik, great
work), I also tried out 3D clouds. I experience two kinds of problems:
- With YaSim aircraft (747, P51D), clouds seem to rotate with the
aircraft. I.e., a flat cloud is always parallel to the wings, not
the horizon. Also, it's impossible to fly through clouds, they
disappear before you reach them, and appear to be stuck to the
outside of the aircraft!
- Under most circumstances, I get big polygons (of various colours)
where clouds should be, some even obscuring part of the aircraft
panel (the 747 3D panel for instance). I see this: _always_ when
flying YaSim aircraft, and when flying JSBSim ones with Erik's
speculars enabled.
Hope this helps you pinpoint the problem, if there's one... I'm
running on a Radeon 8500 64MB with ATI's binary-only driver for
XFree86 4.2.x. (BTW, speculars don't cause any discernible frame rate
hit.)
