How do I get fog to show only in a specific region? Also when I enter the amount of density for fog it has no effect, so it seems.

If you are talking about terrain fog (the thing that you can set in map preferences), you cannot have it for a specific region only. As far as altering the desity, I have found the same problem, it has no effect. If you want to make the fog thicker, make the space between the starting and ending Z smaller (like 0 and 2000 would make fog that would be pretty difficult to see through). Correct me, someone, if I am wrong about the fog in a region.

We are doing just this. But it doesn't work like that.

The following solution works only if you are doing a RPG/sumtin-where-the-player-controls-only-1-unit.

Basicly, it changes the fog for each player specifically, it creates no de-sync if done right.

DaKaN submitted the system we're using to the Trigger/Utility area: It's here

It even includes a "smooooth" change into the new fog, it's awesome, so you're walking from a dark forest into a sunny valley, and it smoothly changes from dark fog to a bright fog (whatever you choose)
