BA Volume Shaders are great
the price is really good and we have been able to get some great fx with this plugin.
This is probably your best bet.

Good morning,

 

I’m looking for a plugin (XSI)  or standalone app that can recreate violent-storm cloud/sky VFX

ala “War of the Worlds” or “Close Encounters of the Third Kind.”

 

Does anyone have any clues as to where I can look to achieve this effect?

 

I looked at the BinaryAlchemy plugin. It looks great! Does it have this ‘animatable’ capability? Does anybaody have a any feedback using this?

 

I’m putting RealFlow through some tests but the turnaround process is very time consuming when colliding fluids.

 

Thanks and have a good day.
