Dh Fog into vanilla chunks
Is there a way to get the dh fog into the vanilla chunks?
I am trying to achieve a look like the image provided, and ive been avoiding using dh because the fog mod doesn't have any compability with dh.
this does cause me needing to put chunks up to 64 though which impacts performance quite a lot :D

You have to configure the fog mods to not end with vanilla chunks
E.G. With
Simple Fog Control
on fabric, if I play with:
- vanilla RD of 16
- DH RD of 256
- DH linear fog...15 Replies
Are you trying to get the fog from that mod into lods?
Or are you trying to get the lod fog into normal chunks?

You can try:
- Better Fog on Fabric
- Fog Overrides on Forge
I looked at https://discord.com/channels/881614130614767666/1216127315797479514 and the post ends with it being fixed? but using better fog I still get an effect like this, which looks very similar to the pictures shown in that post
additionally with better fog I get very different effects based on height so finding the perfect value will prove to be difficult

additionally in Better Fog there are great features for making the fog denser in the morning, coloring the fog for the sunset etc. which instantly breaks any perfect spot ive found

the same angle but at noon:

- vanilla RD of 16
- DH RD of 256
- DH linear fog
I should set:
- Simple Fog Control:
- fog start at between 0.0 and 0.333 (preference)
- fog end at 16.0 (256/16) (or less if you prefer, but then increase DH fog min)
- DH setting default (unless Simple Fog Control is lower then calculated, then increase fog min)You have to manually match DH and the vanilla fog
Ill give that a try! but better_fog has weird config values, could you tell me which one would be fog starting point/end point here?
oh nvm
i didnt realize that setting is inside of the biomes json
also do i have to get rid of any dynamic fog effects like the fog being closer in the morning? because that is one of the big parts why i like fog mods like this
DH fog is static so it won't adjust with morning and such
The fog mod would need to add DH support and chanage DH fog settings itself for such features to work
It is entirely possible though as DH API allowes fog setting changes
but there doesnt seem to be such a mod as of right now right?
at least from what ive seen
but switching to simple fog control did do the trick right now
I really do hope we get some compability for better fog and dh soon or any other dynamic fog mod.
You can create a feature request issue on Better Fog Github
they dont seem to have their mod open source and are very inactive on their discord sadly
im going to ask the dev for the source code and then look into making a compability layer using the dh api because he seems to be sending the source code over dm's in their server (?)
