What It Is
Here's another entry in my series of dioramas I set up for taking photos of my models. This one is very simple. I put it together to get that immersive, sinking, dreamy feeling. I wanted it to be moody and atmospheric to invoke a melancholic emotion. Someone requested I release it on the Discord, so I've added a few more small features for release.

This scene's meant for taking underwater photos. Lots of bubbles, particles, godrays, and foggy lights. I simulated some caustic lighting by using a texture on LFE's LightTexture plugin, and water floating with a cycle force—I'm pretty happy with the result. For additional effect, I included sounds and the music track I was listening to that inspired me to build it, and a simple orbiting camera.



Examples






Notes
- First and foremost, I included a music volume slider, in case the music isn't your jam, or if you simply want to hear the looping water sounds.
- The Enable POV button attaches to a camride that simply orbits the model. Hit the ESC key or open the UI to take back control.
- Sway Power increases and decreases how turbulent the water is for the model, and showcases the physics and spring settings I've tuned.
- I set this up originally for a male model to float, and then adjusted it for the default gen 2 female. You shouldn't have issues swapping with any appearance that you want, but note that physics might not behave entirely as expected.
