fog help
 

Ok here is my problem ive added fog to my map and it has black patches that show up threw the fog. Really weird and i dont understand it, Here is my shader.

textures/chronicle_beach/grey_fog
{
qer_editorimage textures/tools/editor_images/qer_fogblack
surfaceparm nonsolid
surfaceparm fog
fogparms ( 0.45 0.45 0.45 ) 2000
}

And here is a screenshot

Re: fog help
 

Ok ive figured out that if i use a brush for my fog it doesnt do this. but if i use "key = fog" "value = textures/chronicle_beach/grey_fog"
it does any ideas why?

Re: fog help
 

did u add the texture to your shaderlist.txt?
that might be the problem, because your radiant might not have added the info to the compiler (info beeing : surfaceparm fog)

also you might want to change
fogparms ( 0.45 0.45 0.45 ) 2000
to
fogparms ( 0.45 0.45 0.45 ) 2000.0
I'm not sure why but in fogs.shader they do that to all fogs

Re: fog help
 

I added to shader text. But i will try adding the .0 see if that changes anything.

Re: fog help
 

Unforchinatly it did not help m8. Any other ideas?

Can you see tihs one Lb?

Re: fog help
 

Yes I can see it. I don't think it has to do with the shader of you fog, but with the shader of the texture on the patches or with the patches. If you try to replace them with normal brushes to test, I think they won't show up as black.

I don't know what's causing it though, probably the shader on the patches.

Re: fog help
 

The patches are my terrain and here is my terrain shader. I think you mite have somethen there Lethal banana but im not shur what part of it mite cause it.

Re: fog help
 

maybe (maybe a stupid idea) fogs belong in the fogs map =p

textures/chronicle_beach/grey_fog
=>
textures/fogs/grey_fog
