UE4 Cloud Creation Tutorial

Have a look at a guide by Tyler Smith that will guide you through creating a cloud texture.

Have a look at a guide by Tyler Smith that will guide you through creating a cloud texture to use with a made from scratch master cloud material in UE4. It will tell you about creating a series of masks to drive form and light effects changes for UE4 dynamic sky scenarios. In the end, you will get additional flow map and POM map techniques to bring a full sense of 3D form and organic movement to the cloud formations.

The tutorial requires an intermediate level, so you should be familiar with the basic menus and workflows in Photoshop, and Unreal Engine 4.
