   fog effect in silent hill 2
  anyone knows how they did the fog effect in silent hill 2? i think it's a particle effect ... but, it almost looks like it's using some kind of volumetric rendering too. (the fog moves around in relation to camera.)thanks   
  If I remember correctly, I guessed it was a particle effect as well.  They might have used some distance fog in there as well, but particles for the most part.  That way it wirls around a bit.   ;Quote:Original post by grunt123...'Particle effects' is quite misleading sometimes, don't you think?The fog seems like being composed from moving cylinders, with rotating texture and smart alpha usage... imho.Need to look more carefully, but indeed - they have great fog!
