    It is one of the most powerful addon for me because it make possible to create the beautiful sky and clouds so fast with EEVEE.

    I'm intended to use this addon not only for movie / animations but procedural sky-background for 2D design / arts and it works very well. it is more versatile than some sky-related assets or addons I've been used recently. it is work fine with animations of course.

    I understand that there is few documentations and I straggled with that too (like many other addons). I found the tips and solutions thanks to the developer and blender community.

    There is some useful (maybe?) information I've learned:

    1. there is some limitations due to EEVEE in current state and it makes complicate to tweaking the quality of the clouds and lens-flares. I'm not sure but it seems possible to improve in the future development (https://code.blender.org/2021/06/eevees-future/).

    2. Select the Pure Sky's camera and make it as active camera and lock camera("Camera to View"), press "home" key if the screen is small, then tweak focal-length and clip-start, is what I do with Pure Sky first. I'm not sure it is best, but it is very easy way to use.

    3. It can be use both lens-flares and clouds by tweaking "ClipStart" attribute. I'm satisfied with its quality even there is some limitations. I'll set the higher ClipStart to render the clouds more beautiful basically, and set the lower ClipStart to render the lens-flares if need (the clouds degraded sometimes in this case due to that "ClipStart" limitations perhaps).

    It is very good addon for me already, and also there seems to be room for improvement (controlling the shape and contrast of clouds are most difficult part for me. sometimes I want "crispy" clouds but it still hard to me to setting up).

    I hope for further development of both addons and Blender very well.

    The options are near infinite, with fantastic feedback in Eevee. Able to refine so many tiny details to your liking. Wish Cycles would catch up with volume rendering speed, but you're still able to do some basic compositing with a Cycles and Eevee pass for some excellent results. Would recommend using a mist pass to get that Atmospheric fog in compositing.

    The creator is very responsive so a big plus from me :)

      Thanks for your feedback, the compatibility for cycle rendering is now available and many other improvements with version 4.5.

    I'm giving this 5/5 to support the creator, however I regret the purchase as I need it to look as good with all the clouds in Cycles. This is however MENTIONED by the creator in the info, so it's not his fault that I didn't read that info.

    The good thing coming out of this purchase is that I'm going to for the first time give EEVEE a try and see if I can get any good results for my scene.

    Also it's possible that the creator of this addon makes it as awesome looking in Cycles as it is in eevee...

    Super boulot les gars ! C'est le genre d'addon qu'on achète les yeux fermés et qui une fois entre les main, fini par mettre ces étoiles dans les yeux ! Je vous souhaite le meilleure pour la suite !

    This is a fantastic addon for sky creation. You can create anything from twilight, to nighttime.
    You can add styalizatation to the clouds, making them green or purple, you can change the brightness, distance and rotation of the sun. You can create a beautiful space scene. This addon is everything you could ever want to create a sky between realisim and semi realism.

    The seller is also extremly helpful and replies quickly to questions.

    5 star for me.

      It's satisfying to see that making the sky almost 100% editable is useful, it was one of my goals from the beginning of this project. The adventure continues thanks to your encouragement, THANK YOU!

    I wanted to wait before giving my rating. The 4.4 version is a vast improvement to me. I'm looking forward to future updates.

    When I bought the addon....there was scant videos showing how to work it....I asked the developer about a tutorial, he provided a link to show exactly how to set this addon up and the settings you should be using...of course, it is up to you to tweak your settings, time of day, etc to suit your scene's needs. But...since I learned how to work this with his helpful video...I think there is nothing out there to compare for sky and cloud creation in Blender. Amazing addon....beautiful results. Cannot wait to see what might be added in future updates.
