Hyper-realistic atmospheres for everyone, at least according to manufacturer e-on Software. The new Spectral-3 technology is intended to generate physically correct, realistic atmospheres.
In the new version, Ozone now also works with V-Ray and all mentalray-compatible renderers, as well as their special functions such as Sun&Sky, photometric lights, distributed bucket rendering and more.
A further new function is calculation of volumetric clouds in dependence – meaning the clouds cast shadows on each other and amplify or distribute Their respective effect on sunlight. The package continues to include 150 predefiend atmospheres, which enormously accelerate work with various cloud types and presets. If you want to learn more about Ozone 5 – in issue 3, our author Arndt von Koenigsmarck will take a closer look at Ozone 5 and its performance in Cinema 4D.
