UniStorm is a weather simulation program for Windows that comes in the form of a Unity plugin. The distribution provides a comprehensive suite of instruments and features for creating different atmospheric effects, enabling developers to design immersive gaming experiences.

Volumetric clouds

The utility is capable of producing procedural volumetric clouds at high frame rates. The graphics rely on the latest shading and performance techniques like Temporal Reprojection and LODs. There are four quality settings, namely Low, Medium, High, and Ultra.

The atmospheric fog feature takes into account the direction of the sun and moon as well as the color that is applied to the scene, clouds, and skybox. Thanks to real time shadow effects, you can enhance realism and improve visual quality of in-game objects.

Performance and weather types

It is necessary to highlight that the program offers two-dimensional clouds which work well on low end smartphones and old gaming computers. It is possible to pick the Mobile option inside the editor. By doing so, you can automatically apply optimal parameters without changing chosen colors.

There are also customizable cloud profiles for each weather type. Thus, you are able to further tweak the appearance of your visuals to better fit the project you are currently working on. The weather system enables you to create unique atmospheres.
