Volumetric Fog feedback thread

What were your UVs? The only thing you can really use for UVs in a Volume material is WorldPosition. Right now it does some buggy voxelization of triangle meshes but I intend to change that in the future. Particle sprites are voxelized based on their radius correctly. I didn’t remember to test mesh emitters =(

This is probably because you’re getting to the end of the simulated volumetric fog range. ‘View Distance’ under ‘Volumetric Fog’ controls this distance. If you push it out, you’ll get less precision up close (more banding in details). With this technique it costs processing power or precision to cover a long view range, you pick which.

Ah that makes sense, I had been messing with the view distance values and then totally spaced it when the particle thing happened, I assumed I set up a material or particle parameter wrong. That’s what I get for waiting until 1am to test stuff.

Thanks for your insight, the cube was an editor cube so I’d assume UVs are mapped pretty typically. I’ll give it another go with sprites this evening!
