Fog

[torus]

I assume that because Radiant has a Fog texture (http://clankiller.com/games/quake/gtkradianttut/tut8/index3.php), one can create fog that you can run through. Does this work in Nexuiz? I have never seen it ingame, as far as I can remember. If so, does it slow the game down much?

Afaik brush fog isn't working in Nexuiz. However, you can add fog to any maps with engine fov, setting fov values. There are some values in the wiki about this.

Exactly here: http://www.alientrap.org/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Tweaks

I've only seen one map in Nex use fog (one of the tzork's, I think), so while it's not particularly widely-used, yes it is possible

here some old screenshots to see what the fog is like:

Those are some of the weirdest screenshots I have ever seen! Anyway, thanks for the info

I would not recommend using fog, at least not if the idea is to reduce the line of sight, because a: it requiers some fetures that not all gpus have, and b: any client can disable the fog localy at any time by using "fog 0" in the console. And if the map uses the fog to limit the line of sight, the ones that disables the fog gain an unfair advantage.

Well a) was a bug (that seems to be fixed) and i would really like a way to disable b)
