:w00t:I created the ‘Earth’ using ball prop on iClone 3. How do you create the ‘Atmosphere’ the ‘Blue’ color around the ‘Earth’. I appreciate if you could please provide the steps.
Thank You,was wondering if you meant the blue color 'on' the earth ball itself,, or 'seperate' from the earth, (floating around the earth) ?....a quick way to create blue on the earth is to go to 'atmosphere', then click 'IBL' when it is clicked on,,the options for it will open,,then you can adjust colors on your earth in the color balance section...whatever color you make prominant there may also affect your IBL and particle that you select ...
another quick route to change the color of any of your particles, fog, smoke, etc., is to just scroll down its modifier panel n find the tiny little color box (the box is about a 1/4 ''sq)...then click on its little tab n a big color box will open up, then you can select your color.......n also if you leave the 'Blend' option set on 'alpha', the color of the particle will be normal, but if you select ' addition', then it will be really bright..(selecting 'subtraction' makes it really dark/black)......
also as for adding glow to the earth ball, you can just double click on the 'glow map' in your earth ball's Material And Texture settings and it will open up the iClone Glow folder, there you can pick some really nice glow effects.(the blue glow maps are really nice) but if nothing else, these may be helpful shortcuts in the future.,
..well, hope this helps a little.:)
