Hi GameGuru people!

I recently played around with Devcore35's awesome fog decals, and thought the results was quite cool!

A bit of fog FX can really bring a great vibe to a scene. Here are some pics of my effort. Hope you enjoy!

Nice pics. Agree that fog can make a big difference visually, as well as hiding distant objects so you can reduce the camera distance.

Hi Gtox!

Thanks! Yep, it really is quite handy. It's amazing how many frames per second you can save by reducing the camera distance.

Especially on my humble rig!

What i used to do with those decals is to rotate them so they're flat on the ground, they give a good emulation of ground fog that way, can be a bit tricky to rotate though because they use the marker system instead of the entity system for some reason, but they look good if you can do it right

Hi Belidos!

Yep! It's a bit tricky at first, but once you get the hang of it, It gives a real scary atmosphere if you use them for ground fog.

I think the fog controls is one of the best features GG received early on. You can really create some awesome atmospheres.
