Procedural Sky

Task

Tweak parameters, explore how different noise layers interact, and see how procedural techniques bring skies to life

Theory

Procedural sky rendering uses mathematical functions to simulate the sky in real time - no textures required. Instead of loading cloud images, we generate them dynamically using noise and gradients.

Core Concepts:

• Noise functions (like Perlin or FBM) create organic cloud shapes and movement

• Gradients simulate atmospheric scattering and horizon color

• Time-based animation makes clouds drift and evolve naturally

This technique gives full artistic control, adapts to any style. Perfect for games, simulations, or just shader fun.
