Three of the premiere atmospheric plugins developers have put their heads together to tackle one of MAX’s long-standing shortcomings : the inproper mixing, and indeed layering, of atmospheric effects.
Chaos Software, Dimension DESIGN Animation Group (who both formed an alliance earlier, read post) and Sitni Sati, three of the premiere atmospheric plugins developers, have developed a routine together, called ‘AtmosBlend’ , that will allow their products (currently just ScatterVL Pro 1.3+ and Phoenix 1.5+) to automatically be blended correctly together when this routine is added to the atmospherics stack.
This removes the need for each developer to design their own fogging and volumetric lights routines that will blend correctly with their own routines as well. An ‘AtmosBlend’ compatible version of Fog has already been coded.
