Hi Jonny,
I created gorgeous fully volumetric clouds using Arete software back in SI3D
days, but not with XSI, although there are XSI licenses available.

Gorgeous and fully fly-thru-able, but heavy going if you're only going to be
above them, so I'd go for modelling and some nice daylight blue FG lighting
if I were you.
Olly : )

Subject: Convincing volumetric clouds
Hello everybody!
Anyone know of a 'solution' to generate convincing, volumetric clouds
(i.e. what you might see from an airplane once it's climbed above the
clouds.)
My feeling is that XSI's volume shaders/particles may not be able to
generate this realistically (I'd love to be proved wrong ;-) ) Any
tutorials I've seen don't really give the realism we're after.
Are there any standalone/plug-in particle solutions that work with XSI
to achieve this effect or is this entirely do-able in XSI?
Cheers
Jonny
