[BUG-226769] [EEP] Personal Lighting - Consider adding options to select water maps / cloud textures #5225

Closed sl-service-account closed 8 months ago

sl-service-account commented 5 years ago

How would you like the feature to work?

Two additional pickers to the Personal Lighting floater to allow custom water maps and cloud textures to be locally applied to the scene.

See attached mock-up image, above, with the pickers outlined in red.

Why is this feature important to you? How would it benefit the community?

As well as tweaking the Sun position, ambient lighting, cloud cover, etc., Photographers often map use of custom water normal maps to locally adjust the appearance of Linden Water

(See this selection of Maps from Cory Edo: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Trompe-Loeil-Water-Normal-Maps-Set-of-10-2014/6079335)

It would be useful to have the ability to pick and apply these maps locally via the Personal Lighting floater.

Similarly, as EEP introduces an easier means to use custom cloud textures, it would be useful if a picker were added to Personal Lighting to allow a local application of custom cloud textures.

We are leaving this open for further comment.  I would to know what other settings photographers make heavy use of which we missed (or the ones that have been included that are not used and can be removed.)
