    Wow, you posted a demo! :cool: Unfortunately, I cannot download the file because your approval is required. You should have received an my request. Can you approve it? Probably, by chance or on purpose, you closed the option to view the file without your permission: https://support.google.com/docs/ans...578-1066797324&p=requesting_access&hl=en&rd=1

    I have long been interested in your asset, but without testing the demo before the purchase, I do not buy assets (there was an unsuccessful purchase case without a demo, when I even had to ask the author to return the money).

    Perfectly! But I can not play again. When the scene starts, the camera is always underground and falls to infinity. It does not depend on the selected spawn point. Can you fix it? This is what I see when starting the scene:

    I wrote a message, and then I realized that I could appreciate the sky and the weather system out of the ground :) To be honest, I did not like the demo. I waited about 10-15 minutes and the weather always remained cloudy, it rained every day. I have never even seen the sun. In the demo, the weather is always the same and it does not allow to evaluate the asset. For me, Force Of Nature still remains a mystery. I would like to see in demo all weather options, all types of clouds. Best of all, if there were sliders with which the user could adjust the weather himself and look at the result.

    About your previous message dont make any sense that you start underground and with a question mark instead the number of frames, i run the demo many times and that never happened , its a build and always starts in the same position, and also why it worked later? as you could see the demo, that could happen if you are hacking the demo and changing the position. Dont know why you say you dont like it, say it starts underground which is false and that weather doesnt change when weather changes fast increasing the time speed
    It is just a demo, not to show everything it can do. In 15 min is logical it stays rainning.

    No, no, why should I lie to you? I don’t do any hacking. The question mark instead of the frame rate is because I tried to take a screenshot immediately when I appeared on the scene. In the first second I have a question mark instead of a number of frames. You can check it yourself. The frame rate is acceptable, is about 60-70, if do not look at the forest. It really upsets me that you thought I was trying to deceive you. As for the appearances underground, I would not be surprised if everything works correctly on you PC, because my old Intel Pentium 4 processor may simply not have time to build a landscape collider and the player controller has time to fall into the ground. This could be cured by lifting the spawn point of player controller a few meters higher, which I meant by asking to fix the demo.

    This is my version of the situation of falling underground. Your version, that I deliberately hacked the demo, moved the player’s position underground, replaced in the screenshot the frame rate sign with a question mark and lying about the constant rain. I was very surprised that you think that this will really be someone to do. Very sorry.

    While I am writing these lines, I started the demo again and there is always rain, the weather does not change. Although I increased the speed of time to a maximum. I do not know how to convince you that I am not lying. I did not want to offend you with my criticism, I just really expected to immediately see the different types of clouds, the weather. I thought you would be interested to hear the feedback and it will help you in promoting the product. I definitely don’t want to offend or deceive you.

    I didnt say you hacked it, just that it could explain it, you get that frame rate cause use a really old processor, i get around 200 or 300 fps with a q6600.I tried the application with a really old processor with a laptop i have and it appears also underground, i will see why happens and fix it, what is not true is that weather doesnt change, it changes fast also in my laptop if you set speed to max. The question mark just appears in the very first milisecond when game starts, so you had to really try hard to get the screen just when game started which doesnt also make sense, and then say you dont like it which also dont see the point. Also you said it didnt work and then you said it worked, so that also didnt make any sense. I had a person asking for a refund cause his pc didnt meet the requirements and i denied, the same as you said it happened to you so it looked as it was you. I remind that is for pc, not for mobile or for a pc which has the power of a mobile.

    The question mark in my case remains so long that I have time to take a screenshot.

    I did not understand what you mean. The landscape from below is transparent and the fall did not prevent me from watching the sky. Therefore, in a sense, it works. In any case, I have no complaints about performance, given my weak PC. I said that I didn’t like the demo because it always rains there. But you say that the weather in the demo should change very quickly, if set the speed of time to maximum. Unfortunately, this is not happening for me, although I ran the demo many times and I cannot agree with you that this does not make sense. If you do not have a solution to this issue, then I do not demand anything from you. Just one potential buyer will not see all the advantages of this asset. ;) A good demo is more informative than a thousand videos.

    Not what you said before, which was you could see the sky out of the ground, when before you were inside the ground. I tried in a old laptop with about the same processor power than yours, and shows the fps in less than a second and weather changes fast, though its not inmediate, maybe you are just waiting one second, who knows, if you dont like just dont buy it, its ok. It is also for windows, in case you are trying to play it in linux or something like that.

    And btw if you were seeing the sky from under the ground as can be seen in your own pic the sky is hardly appreciated so saying you dont like it based on that also doesnt make sense

    Hi,
    I am considering purchasing this asset, however I have a question.

    Does this asset work, or can it be made to work, with an arbitrary up vector for the player?

    I am working on a space sim where players can land on planets, so the up vector for the scene is not always along the y-axis.

    Can this asset be rotated to match an arbitrary up vector?

    Thanks.

    Hi,
    The sky is a model with a shader for the clouds, you can set it in any rotation you want. But other things like rain or snow will need some tweaking in the particle system for the rotation

    Unity has removed my payment method and recently has decided to not pay me a sale i had for not agreeing with the new payout system, so they are stealing me and if they dont pay for what i sell i have to close my asset. I had many other problems with Unity asset store not paying me giving as reasons fraud was committed with the sale, or even that they just decided to give back refunds without my permission, while when i buy assets of other providers they always tell me i cannot get a refund unless the provider gives me permission. So i was already really fed up with Unity and now not paying and stealing my money has not any sense continue selling with Unity
