ditch the fog

[deefop]

Sorry if this was addressed in another post already, i browsed the forums a little today but didn't see it.

Ditch the fog. 100% on every map. Get rid of it. It just makes things hard to see and annoying, and part of the beauty of 1.6 is how clear everything really is. There is no such thing as "hiding" in plain t in 1.6. Unless you count that 1 hill on cpl_fire that everyone climbs up and hides on.

But seriously. Aztec would be 100x better with 0 fog. And if there is any lingering fog on any other maps just get rid of it! Fog is one of the dumbest changes that valve made to source in the first place.

This again? RedStar already talked about this. removing fog would cause perfomance lose (=fps drop) so he reduced the fog as much as posible (d2, not sure of the others maps).

Yes please remove the fog and maybe add a cl_weather command like in 1.6 for csp_aztec. Also very important please remove the ambient noise on some maps or at least add the stopsound command. The sound right now isn't the greatest so remove the ambient sounds on maps like csp_train.

No fog = less FPS. Hope it's clear.

[blackaddR]

Thread should be closed imho, tbh.

[haGisson]

try mat_dxlevel 95 and r_pixelfog 0

the fog is way less with dxlevel 95 than with 81 (just my opinion)

Shouldn't be removed totally, but maybe it could be reduced on some maps.

The fog has been reduced on: dust2, nuke and train! IMO only the train needs slightly more reducing because of the dark lower bombplace.
