Lol well I tried a lot of stuff, but none of it worked, so I'm going to give up the dam idea. The map will be released sometime this week then...don't expect much from me, though. Thanks for all your help, anyhow.

It is impossible to have two separate fog planes in a single BSP.
The other section is there for use in multiple BSP scenarios.
I know it's impossible, after wasting a day on this crap. It's been in production for months, and frankly now that I see the map with proper lighting and a realistic grass texture, I feel it'd be so much easier to just scrap the idea and move on.Quote:

Altho I never tried putting them horrizontally or on an angle... XD, just flat right side up or upside down.
EDIT: wait killa is it possible to actualy do that... I never played around with it that much... I always kind of figured only 1 fog plane per bsp.
Couldn't you possibly have a single plane that goes like this (except all one piece):________/
where the "/" is hidden by your dam? I haven't fiddled with fog too much so I don't know, but I think it would be worth a shot. Unless of coarse I completely misunderstand what your trying to do.
Yeah I thought that too until I figured out that bending a plane like that actually counted as 3 fog planes.
thats because it is 3 planes... each flat surface = 1 plane where or not there connected or not.Quote:

I've always thought that it wasn't possible to make a contained fog plane, because fog planes leak in every direction you can't specify there size.
Have you done this?Quote:

seperate your bsp by portals.
also, a fog plane doesnt need to span the entire area you want fog in.
it can just be a small square floating in the middle of the cluster, it's height will mark the height of the fog in that cluster.
interesting.. I nevar knew that.Quote:
