Welcome to the world Dandori!

The MojoWorld challenge world for the week #116 at http://wwww.3dcommune.com

The world was first started as the SteepSteps Basis Function study and uses  in almost 60% of all the textures(especially Value textures).

ATTENCION: You`ll need XenoArch plug-in (available at 3dcommune MojoFree Stuff or on the Pandromeda`s downloads page), zfractals and KH_Atmo (by KrummenHacker, get them from his downloads page. Thanks Bernard for all your work!)

I would like to thank Armands for his great advices and tips on making Atmosphere colors.

About the world:
The desert with very small areas covered by the water (although you can flood it by using the appropriate slider:).The terrain uses Latitude blend for it`s small features, so the Southern hemisphere is more rough. The world has a variaty of the color and displacement materials, blended by Latitude or by World Position. 3 types of the Atmospherics are available, through the use of MultiAtmo (KH_Atmo plug-in).
It has 3 moons, one of which is funky metal plated techno type. I made it using the Complex Plane fractals from the zfractal plug-in(when I used those in KPT plug-in for the Photoshop, I noteced that at low resolutions they produce an interesting rectangle patterns, so I tried the same thing in Mojo and BINGO!!! The secret is to set the Smallest feature size very high, play with Seed and turn on the Repeet. When used on the moons the UV Position or Object position is your best choise.Hope you produce some interesting patterns in the future too:).

The sliders:
1. Flood -raises the sea level. The range is 16000m so be gentle with it:)
2. Atmo1 On
3. Atmo2 On
4. KH_Atmo On
Those 3 sliders turn on/of (so it`s all the way to the right or left slider position) the standalone Atmosphere. Turning all of them at the same time was not tested.
5. Fog On -  Turns on the mist(standart Mojo mist no sfx here).
6.Alternative Clouds - Switches on the different type cloud set and turns off the default one.
7. Alternative Sunlight - Gives the sunlight the yellowish tint and higher Intesity. ATTENCION: It`s not recomemded to use this slider with KH_Atmo turned on (see Krummen Hacler tutorial on KH_Atmos)
8. Stars On - makes the stars visible(to use with the shots at night).
9. No Clouds - turns all the cloud layers off.
10. more Clay on Tops - Makes the pinkish claylike material dominant on the flat high altitude areas.

Hope you have a fun week with this planet. I already do:)

Cheers
Yaroslav
