 Looks Like A Black Screen To Me?!?!

I must have the wrong drivers :-(
Weird tho - I thought in this day and age drivers would be correctly installed automatically (?)
I just get 13 seconds of black.

You'll to have a x264 capable codec or a player like VLC.
 Ahah!

Looks cools! Does func_snow overide skybox? Looks like a blizzard!
 The Fog

Overrides the skybox then? Either way looks pretty nice, might be time to experiment with Dark Places, I always wanted proper rain in Quake. Zerstorer was ok but didn't feel much like rain to me.
 Dammit, I Forgot The Bloom For Extra Blingbling
#13247 posted by Spirit on 2007/12/10 19:38:19
Looks a bit better with bloom enabled.
Yes, the fog is what overrides the sky. Volumetric(?) fog would be awesome, something like a func_fog soft very soft, moving edges. Rawr! There is a Telejano build & mod which has some kind of snowy e1m1 with fog on the floor. Looks quite nice.
The thing with Darkplaces is that the game feels somewhat different. :\

AFAIK, only aguirRe's engine allow to have both fog and skybox rendering, and with all other engines, fog overrides skybox.
Maybe DP or other enhanced GL engine would allow shuch a feature... more tests are required :P
 Well

since the skybox is in the distance, the sky should be fog-color. So no skybox with fog makes sense that way - if there was one, it would be obscured by the fog anyway.
 Indeed
#13250 posted by JPL on 2007/12/10 21:51:32
But I just checked it: with aguirRe's engine, if fog density is low enough (e.g <0.1) then the skybox, or the sky, is still visible... It gives a cool effect of "grounded" fog... like in marshes..
 Yeah

Used it in warp. There's two problems, in that distant objects get culled closer (warpb didn't have those big doors in it originally) and the fog can get thicker in the corners of the skybox because of the distance. I think I used 0.05 or something there.

Yes, I also noticed this corner effect... weird..
 I Was Thinking Of Using A Bit Of Fog In My New Map...
#13253 posted by RickyT33 on 2007/12/11 11:06:48
I'm aiming for FitzQuake usage, but there is one indoor arean, it would be cool to have some fog when in the aream but not after you leave.
I would have to use a Quoth "trigger_command" key, right?
But what is the cammand to put fog on, and then what is the command to turn it off? Does FitzQuake even have fog? Any ideas?
 I Cant Type "arena" Today :-(

 It's
#13255 posted by ijed on 2007/12/11 13:04:33
fog (density) (red) (green) (blue) - though putting in fewer numbers works as well (3 = colour only, 1 = density only).
That's 0 for none and 1 for maximum.
Try aguirRe's documentation for more concise info.
 Thanks!

Sorry - I should look at documentation before asking here :P
 Fog
#13257 posted by aguirRe on 2007/12/11 15:21:47
You can't set colour only, it's either density only (one value, also turns fog on/off), density and common rgb colour (two values) or all four values.
Recommended density is well beneath 0.1 (often beneath 0.05), otherwise textures and lighting are basically ruined.
Recommended "colour" is grey (i.e. common rgb). If colour is desired, use a very complex and subtle one, avoid clear red, green or blue.
See neh2m5 for an interesting poisonous and sulphur-ish example or a less fortunate red/green example in Invein.
 Ok

I'm very very very and very and very (and very)
disappointed. Nobody said a word about my quake ogre's drawing.
Maybe it can be used to do a mdl, maybe not, but saying if it sucks or it's good it's not soo expensive, i think.

Yes, but there was a sort flame with a mapper, maybe it was the wrong time.
