Anyone here have experience making skydomes in Terragen. I already know how to make a skybox using 90 degree renders, but I would like to make an 8 sided dome using 45 degree renders. I''m not sure what settings to use so that my renders will align correctly. thanks in advance for the help.
to get a 45 degree FOV on the camera you''ll need to set the Terragen Camera "Zoom" to (1/tan(pi/8))

or roughly 2.414

then you should be able render out in each of the 8 directions. however, i''m not entirely sure the best way to render a straight up view that will align correctly. And I''m too tired to figure it out now, but that should give you a good start.
