public class CloudPuff
extends ImplicitSurface

A oriented shape with a cloudy texture. The texture is created through a combination of a spherical implicit surface with a cubic density function with Perlin noise. The contribution of the implicit surface density versus noise is controled by the blend factor. The type of noise is controlled with the noise mode.

Method Detail

getBlend

public double getBlend()

setBlend

public void setBlend(double aBlendFactor)

The blend factor controls the contributions of the implicit surface and the noise. The aBlendFactor must be in the range of [0..1]. High blend values favor the implicit surface with a value of 1.0 resulting in a sphere (the implicit surface). Lower values add more noise or roughness to the cloud.

Parameters:

aBlendFactor -
