you guys arent halping me, 1.) it said "You cannot make another post so soon after your last; please try again in a short while."
2.) i can get the right distance i want with the plugin, but all i see is no-mans-land, no fog, i want it to be like 343GS, but dont say "rebuild map with the sky in then swap, cause my batch extract aint been working lately.

haha not one person answered his questions wow, yes fog is the term where the farthest u see is white or light brown or whatever color it is, so in a game if u look in the distance u can walk and new objects, scenery or what ever comes into view at a certain point of distance, what orange did was made taht fog distance closer to the viewer so that the computer didnt have to process so many things at one time, this creates less lag and less viewing distance.

Flare how can I modify the Fog distance? I really plan on using the information when i get it. I know how to use HMT and Spark edit but what do i need to get/do to toy around with the Fog distance.

Thanks ahead of time
