> How would I create fog or mist? Me and my friend *writers of Rebel Pilot CTF, still in the works* are re-creating the shield generator at Endor. I don't have a million years to make elaborate scenery while on the platform, so I want to create a fog/mist.

I cannot think of any idea to create mist in such a way that it :
1) appears even remotely the save in software and hardware (cmp tricks)
2) doesn't kill the framerate (use tons of particles)

These are two ideas, but I *STRONGLY* advise against both of them...

The only thing I could see having a chance of succeeding is to enclose the
level in a big octogonal (or so) box with a forest like texture on it.
