Important/Additional Notes

The environment and character shown in the preview images are NOT PART OF THE PACKAGE.

(Exceptions to this are items on images labeled Demo Map.)


This program is easy to set up to any of your own projects, what you configured with the demo widget, you can also use in your own codes and you can link weather changes to times and locations on your own map.

The decal allows you an adjustable weather that is projected onto the map. It is recommended for large areas.

The program tiles the map automatically around the character to get a wet or snowy effect. There is no moisture in the covered or closed areas. The plan includes three built-in particle systems: rain, snowfall and nearby-fog. The area that covered by objects remains dry.
