STATE_engine_set_atmospheric_effect

 

 


  Obsolete. Use STATE_engine_set_fog() instead.
   Set the color of the fog.
   Even if you don't use fog, you might want to use this function
   to reduce visible cracks seen between adjacent polygons. For that matter one should use a color that is as close as possible
   to the dominate world in the world
  
   This function also set automatically the background color to the fog color (see STATE_engine_set_background_color() )
  
   Here are some tips for getting natural results:
   1) Choose a color that is very close to the dominant color in your world.
  	  for example if your world is a desert then your fog color (atmosphere color) should
  	  lean towards the color of sand.
  
   2) Choose colors where the red==green==blue .Shades of gray look best
  	  even if you want to have a blue fog color then don't use 0,0,255 
  	  this will be very unnatural ... Colors such as (180,200,220) where the blue is a little bit
  	  higher than the rest, will give a much better effect.
  	  Always try:
  	  Black - (0,0,0)
  	  Gray - (128,128,128)  or any shade of gray
