If you don't know how to do this, then i womder you did the render on your site. Because there is a nebula and a planet and even shivan ships and a Knossos. So it seems to me that you also havent made that picture.

I have made the render but the planet is with copy/paste insert in this render and now is my question how i can make a nubula with a planet that i can see in the atmoshere of the planet with stars in it ?

In my first render can't you see stars in the atmoshere of the planet.

you use PS's layer system....
put both the neb and the planet on separate layers (each)... put the planet on a screen layer (i think) and as long as the planet has no large-scale black bit on it you should be fine..


i'll test it out myself to see if there's a more effective way...

4 set layer as screen and your done

if u dont know how to do that :


1 open sparky (i think) vp file and extract the animations of explosions
2 kick open ani wiev and there should be a extract frame button or extract all frames button in the top menus.

sun: needs work
planet surface: too much relief
planet atmosphere: looks like it's on fire
lightning on smaller planets: completley of
backgorund, mwoah, kinda nice.

probaly since your host won't allow images on other sights, give a link instead.

I know that;)

Unless it was directed at Free Terran. Then you'll can disregard this post:D



Free Terran: There is a diference between a render and a picture.

Render: Made in a programs such as 3DS Max, Lightwave, Softimage etc

Picture: Photoshop, Paint Shop pro and such programs.

And yours is a picture:)

mmm, interesting, it looks a lot more sun like, if you want an explosion add an shockwave. the lighting and the planet are still kinda wierd.

Well, that depends on how much effort you want to put into it. You could get a FS1 style shockwave with a gradient Fill and opacity setting in PSP/PS - for a proper movie grade shockwave effect, you'd probably need a high end rendering Proggy and a lot of time/practice. Not everything comes in small yellow boxes you know.

The only thing I have to say is, if that's your first 'render,' then who made the render on your front page? :doubt:

Free Terran, do you by any chance multiplay Diablo 2?

Just a question but those who play it might understand the hidden pun.

Post by: Ulundel on April 14, 2003, 07:28:59 am
First, do not use as many capital letters as you do. And I asked you a question - do you multiplay Diablo 2?
