New clouds in 3.00

[SCU_Server]

What settings in the editor do we set for clouds to use the new 2 layering cloud types they go on about in version 3.00 ??

I've only found one preset with 2 layers so far, but that was just a quick check.

In any case,  it happens automatically with particular pre-sets. Just start going through them...

I assume you mean this line:

    17.  Heavy cumulus clouds were made more complex, some of the weather variations now have two level clouds;

 

I think this means that some of the options in the "Clouds" drop-down (or perhaps the "Precipitation" settings) result in more complex cumulus clouds, including two levels.

I'm resaving all my Sirens of Death missions right now. I Click on atmosphere options then ok to refresh the sky with the proper clouds, and it does that. But it seems like all the clouds in the 5 missions I've opened are paper thin... I have yet to see them in-game but in the editor they look really odd.

The odd editor clouds have been happening for a while now, and you have to enter REALLY high values to get any thickness out of the clouds.

Yeah it might also be one part I haven't been in the editor in ages and another part I have a new monitor.
