Adding fog? Hmmm ... yes, that would look great in many places It would be a kin to weather-like effects ... but it might slow your frame rate to a crawl, depending on how you created the fog (vertex, emulation, etc.) Let's see, where in the game are there such things 'like' fog 'present'? In certain death animations of bosses, there are fog like effects ... and Mephisto has a fog like aura about him ... but I don't know if you could use those to create a weather-like fog ... what do you think, Gorothon? ------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."

Sorry, bro ... I wouldn't know (yet) ... but the Mephisto like fog would probably be your best bet, since it appears in actual game play  ------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."

No, bro, it hasn't died It's a good idea that I think may be possible ... an if we figure it out it will add a whole new look to the game I'm going to look into it further, to see if it can be done  ------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."

There's fog clouds in the Panemonium Fortress. Maybe these are objects in the Ds1?

What is the entry for it? I don't have time to look now(at school currently). But I can maybe put it in since I know how to use the level editor.------------------ God gave me a brain to use but I miserably failed to use it to my advantage

Hmmm ... that's right, the 'fog' near the Pandemonium Fortess as you decend the stairway I'll look into that too, Gorothon ... I'm sure we can get some fog into other places in the game, since it does exist in actual game play ... to what extent in which we could make it look 'really cool' hmmm ... now that's the trick  ------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."

I opened fortress.ds1 with the Ds1 editor and went to the OBJECT (Type 2) of Act 4; in there, there are tho entries that are fog related: fog - flat and fog - vertical. ------------------ "Get me a balrog attack-1 hand-to-hand animation, and I want it yesterday, the paladin is almost here!" ---> DMA1HTH @ offset 0006A480h. - Myhrginoc

Apocalypse, what do you think? Would it be practical to use that fog in other locations of the game?------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."

This is in the editor readme.txt:"you can put npc/monster in another act but you can't put object from another act (ie. you can put duriel in act4 but you can't put Cain's Gibbet to act4)" Does this mean the fog (an act 4 object) can't be placed in other acts, just act 4?? ------------------ "Get me a balrog attack-1 hand-to-hand animation, and I want it yesterday, the paladin is almost here!" ---> DMA1HTH @ offset 0006A480h. - Myhrginoc
