(It's only used by Life of the Party and Precious Cargo in the original missions anyway)īy the way, I think the fog looks just fine on my FX5900XT, near the start of Precious Cargo looking up the elevator shaft it appears gradually with smooth graduations and no visible banding.

If I remember right, Emil (who made Life of the Party) even mentioned on this forum once that yes, fog was buggy on that mission because they ran out of time to test it, and that was why they made fog off by default. If so you should be aware that Life of the Party has KNOWN bugs with the fog rendering regardless of video card, so its probably better to test it on other missions with fog such as Precious Cargo. Life of the Party, however, isn't much different, as you can see, and the fog still abruptly disappeared like it did on the Radeon.Are you refering to big sections of the fog (and sometimes the entire fog) dissapearing when you move to different positions, particularly near the beginning of life of the party ? I made a few comparison shots - it didn't run the game particularily well (playable, but jerky), but it rendered the fog very nicely. The other night I installed my old VooPCI in as a secondary display adapter. Perhaps there's hope for the GT6600/6800 Users out there yet!) (of course, as you can see by the shots, the stars are still there, so it's not exactly the same as the issue some people are having, but maybe they are related. If there is anyone out there suffering from the ugly sky syndrome- try turning off anti-aliasing and see if it helps (and let us know about it!) What gives with that? You turn on a feature to give yourself 'best image quality' and you get worse. pcx file, compression being higher because the more mono-chromatic, ugly banded clouds) However, with Anti-aliasing turned on to 4X or 2X 'quality setting' (the performance setting seems to keep the anti-aliasing off.) - the sky looks terrible! Check it out: With my Radeon 7500 Anti-Aliasing set to 'Application preference', which mean 'none' for thief, the sky is the 'nice sky', clouds aren't too 'banded'.
