i found that out the other day, the default is realtively low; kept shouting at a sim that didn’t look great until i upped the volume texure res in the display options, realised there was tons of creamy detail in there

d in the viewport, texture tab, under 3d textures turn off limit resolution , and bump the defaults from 128x128x128 to 256 or even 512 if your card can go that hard

came up on another chat, the eternal water droplet trail thingy

kinda like this one, does a thing where the trails seek the closest droplet, if its smaller will eat it and increase its own size, pause for a bit

@rich lord this is what I do…set the “old max” to 100 and then dial in your volume absorption and scattering from there, like for example it usually looks way better to have old max 100 and absorption 100 than old max 1 and absorption 1. Redshift does a bad job when the incoming density values are over 1 so this just pads you

Comparison pics coming up here…first is Mantra “ground truth” then Redshift old max 1, then redshift old max 100 and compensated absorption/scattering

In the old max 1 render you can see how I’m also getting those ugly looking flat blocks in my clouds and it doesn’t match mantra at all despite the alpha density being similar
