This enables fog. To put fog in your track, add a line like this to your lighting file:

fog [ .75 .80 .87 ] .0003

Where "[ .75 .80 .87 ]" is the RGB fog color and ".0003" is the fog density.

Linux users: http://mxsimulator.com/snapshots/mxbin-2008-05-26

Replace mx.exe or mxbin with one of the above files. I'd keep a backup of the originals since these aren't well tested.

Damn, the skybox isn't effected by it because it doesn't have a distance. Looks like we'll have to make a few skyboxes to suite

OK, once you make the colour right, it looks quite good. Here is Budds Creek with a bit of misty action. It had fog [ .45 .55 .60 ] .003

Don't worry, leave all the fog, texturing and lens flare up to us track makers. I'll make a track soon and release it with all the new features.

Well, I think JLV is going to re texture the old tracks, but I might make something so every every track has a lens flare (All stock tracks)
