Fog trouble.

Well I've been trying to add fog for my map for some time but every attempt seems to fail drastically.

My tileset is Cityscape.

I've tried linear fog set via triggers and map options and density all the way up to 100 and it doesn't show at all.

I've tried exponential fog as well but even at 1 density you can't see anything other than glow effects.

Any ideas as to whats wrong?

Edit: Fixed it.. just noticed its set on a z axis, adjusted it closer to ground :P

Map options fog has a Z bottom and Z top. You need to specify where you want it to appear.

You can also make a water doodad and scale the Z axis ridiculously to achieve a similar foggy effect.

Got that part but now I have another problem.. This is what I have for my fog layer..

Z Start- 0
Z End- 25
Density- 1

But it is so dark that I can only see glow effects (even on lighter colors)... any ideas?

Reduce the density. I would try 0.2 and work my way up.

Other than that, because your start/end are only 0 -> 25, it might seem darker than it would if you did 0 -> 100. I've only started working with fog, so that's as far as my knowledge of the subject extends.

start/end = 3000 / 5000 is about average.

The start/end are not the Z distance, but the distance from the camera to any particular point.

Yeah, I just smacked my forehead realizing that as I read.

Thanks for the correction.
