This is a preview of the Clouds Set B for Artmatic Voyager.

The Clouds Set B is the second in a series of cloud preset collections.
For this collection Artmatic 4.0 or higher and Voyager 1.2 or higher is required.

All the files generate RGB Alpha clouds. The letters R, G and B are abbreviations for red, green and blue. RGB is the most common color model used in computer graphics. The colors red, green and blue are combined in various ways to reproduce other colors.

Alpha refers to the 4th output of the files which carries alpha information. This way the Voyager sun "knows" where there are clouds and how dense they are.

RGB Alpha files can generate multiple colored cloud layers. (In this set you`ll find files with up to 5 layers)

The shifted shading is provided by the file
Since every layer may have its own color you can create wonderful sunset scenes.

From the brightest to the darkest clouds, it`s all possible.
This collection makes use of various techniques to achieve a realistic shading.
The Clouds Set B consists of 50 ready to use cloud files along with a AM Voyager file which serves an an example or starting point. In addition you will get a library of cloud types packed into CTs (compiled trees). Along with those files you will get an easy to follow description of how to handle those files and how to do simple edits for those who wish to do so. Included is also a tutorial about the color system used for the files, that will enable you to tweak the colors yourself.

The structures themselves are well organized to avoid any unnecessary confusion.
Another technique allows to place clouds ahead of other clouds, without havîng to use separate layers.

Like with Scalar Clouds, RGB Alpha clouds interact with the AM Voyager sun. However the shading of the clouds is not shifted. So the shifted shading is provided by the file itself.

The clouds in all files are linked to time. This means that when you move the Timeline slider in AMV, the clouds will move. Some even change their shape while moving. This provides a great amount of sky variation for an existing scene.
