Here is an working tutorial.
Making Realistic Fog

Step 1-Put the main_menu sky in your map
Step 2-Make the mainmenu sky, the sky on ur map
Step 3-Go to the fpch tag and make every number in the Tag Editor "0" (no quotation marks)
Step 4-Go to the sky tag and select the mainmenu sky. Go to dependecies and change the "mode" of the mainmenu sky, the default sky model.
Step 5-Open Insolence and go to sky tag and then go to Fog
Step 6-Then go click the scnr tag and select scnr tag
Step 7-CLick "Change Plugin" at the top and go to Color Preview.
Step 8-Select the color you want and then click the sky TAB at the bottom of the window
Step 9-Import the color numbers from the Color Preview tab and then set the Start Distance and Full Distance
Step 10- YOUR DONE!
The maximum signature size is 500x120px at 75kb.

ok.. heres wat u do.... its very simple

take a sky that has fog already (research_indoor from either gassgiant or flood lab is a good one)

then in entity open the sky tag, and copy the fog chunk, then inject into the zanzi sky... if it already has fog, simply overide

then ur done
