Guidelines

  • By checking this box, I am saying that I have read the guidelines and believe to be following them to the best of my ability

Description of feature request

The feature request is simple:
Make the "cloud blocks" generate themselves connected to each other.

In more detail, the blocky cloud texture that you see in the sky, would be changed so that the cloud block edges would connect to each other making the clouds look smoother.

Alternatively, the clouds could be replaced with smoother dynamic size-changing and shape-changing objects/particles that you can travel trough, this would essentially be the current clouds, but with a lot more functionality.
I don't know how easy it would be to implement something like this, but either way, this method of generating clouds would look amazing.

Now because we're in the subject of smoothening the cloud textures, I will just say that the cloud movement could also be smoothened. This could be done by not limiting the location of the cloud to blocks, but instead making them able to move by smaller distances.

Also, I understand that making changes like this will create technical difficulties, like creating lag. But seeing as you're already familiar with LODs, you could use them with the newer cloud textures as well.

Now that's the idea for you.
Consider thinking if any of these sounds like a features you could see someday in this mod.
And if you do see it that way, start implementing it! It doesn't have to be now, but just in the future sometime ๐Ÿ˜‰
Anyway, have a great day <3
