help with fog

[melechdude]

So I'm trying to add fog to a simple map i made, but its not working. The fog plane is named "$fogplane" and the material is "+unused$" but when i run the .jms through tool i get the following error:

"EXCEPTION halt in \halopc\haloce\source\tag_files\tag_groups.c,#3157 : #0 is not a valid structure_bsp_fog_plane_block index in [#0,#0)"

any help would be appreciated

E: nvm.
I'm not really experienced with creating fog.

fogplane$

also, make sure the plane is only 1 square (two tris) and all of its vertexes/outer edges are outside the bsp

[melechdude]

changed the name of the plane, same error.

the map is a hill and i'm trying to make the fog in the area surrounding the hill so the plane is intersecting the bsp, is that a problem?

[sleepy1212]

no, as long as there are no vertexes or outer edges inside the bsp and the plane is only 2 tris. basically make the plane wider than the entire bsp and have it's normals facing opposiet where you want fog
