The air up there in the clouds is very pure and fine, bracing and delicious. And why shouldn't it be? — it is the same the angels breathe.

Skylight and Atmosphere
Skylight and Atmosphere for Poser 8 to Poser 2014 is the ultimate solution for creating realistic outdoor environments for large and small scenes.
The scalable sky sphere utilizes original 8000 pixel wide sky panoramas coupled with matching IBL image probes to give a true representation of the light in which the sky was photographed.
The included Atmosphere module will not put any strain on your rendering times as it is generated by Poser's very own 'Depth Cue' cue system. I have found that using these atmospheres adds no extra rendering time at all!!!
The 'Sun' light dials have been customized to clearly help you adjust the light to the position on the horizon and the time of day.
Also available in Skylight are four warm-up filters and four cool-down filters to adjust the colour temperature of the sun light in the scene.
THIS PRODUCT DOES NOT REQUIRE ANYTHING ELSE. IT IS STAND ALONE.
This product features two modules. The 'Skylight' module and the 'Atmosphere' module.
The Skylight module features a 'Sky Sphere' with wrap around 360 degree seamless sky panoramas photographed by myself. The sphere is designed so that the bottom edge of the sky fades into infinity.
There are four different sky setups.
- Cumulus Sky
- Cumulonimbus Sunset/Sunrise
- Diffuse Clouds
- Big Sunset/Sunrise
Each sky features a bright version and a darker more moody version.
Eack skylight scene features a 'Sun' light with 'Time of Day' and Horizon Position' dials to acurately create Skylight. Each set-up also includes an IBL probe light to acurately cast ambient light into the scene.
The 'Atmosphere' module features 12 incredibly fast rendering 'Depth Cue' atmospheric scenarios.
These include:
- Alien Planet
- Chemical Attack
- Heat Haze
- Heavenly
- Light Fog
- Mist
- Pea Soup
- Poor Visability
- Silent Hill
- The Fog
- Titan
There is a reset file to turn the atmosphere off.
Also included are four color temperature 'Warm-Up' materials and four 'Cool-Down' materials for the sun light.
There is a 17 page user guide and tutorial that also features four of my render settings especially for this product.
Please Note: The atmosphere module does not take any longer than a normal render to complete as it is using Poser's 'Depth Cue' system.
And they were canopied by the blue sky,
So cloudless, clear, and purely beautiful,
That God alone was to be seen in Heaven.
