--Fog Is Not Appearing--
« on: March 23, 2011, 02:26:37 pm »

I just got my new laptop, it's an Acer with Windows 7. On my old computers, which were Gateway and Compaq with Windows Xp, I could use fog, and I could see it before the animation was rendered, but the only Renderer I had was Scanline. On this new laptop, I can't see the fog before or after the animation is rendered, but I can use both Renderers, Scanline and OpenGL. Is this caused by the laptop's new features or is there a plugin or something I can download to get the fog to work again?

Have you checked fog on? Go to view>preferences and check fog on for both opengl workspace and file output.

Oh, that fixed it. I don't know why that didn't get transferred to the new computer when I copied it. This whole time, I thought I just had to go to Environment settings.  :)
