This would be extremely easy to add in the shader, but unfortunately half of the graphics don't use them
But yeah, almost forgot about this. Consider this a feature request

IIRC either it wasn't ported to OpenGL at all, or it didn't work properly with something in the (crappy) way we do the OpenGL rendering.

Isn't that about the fog of war ("how do we show (un)explored stuff"), not the (purely graphical) distance fog ("how does stuff look when it's farther away")? Edit: Hm, ok, looks like those were mixed together previously. There could probably be a purely graphical "distance fog" option as well.

This thread was about mist and fog of war on unexplored areas and combining them.

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File: ... -_base.jpg there we see that sandy mist exists even on clearly explored areas.
While the current mixed mode of mist and fog of war is a good choice for the gameplay and balance stuff, the old sandy mist is just a graphical feature and exist on all(explored,unexplored and visible) areas.

I thought the 'sandy mist' was the mist which was at the edges of the player's view of the map, so that the view doesn't cut off suddenly and instead blends into the mist. In and around 1.x, the viewable area of the map (max zoom out) was so tiny that I think the fog itself could be seen on the screen, even when looking downwards, as you can see in that image. The max view distance these days is monstrous in comparison to 1.x.

It also looks like it was a lot softer in 1.x, so it could be a combination of both.

Found the old tests of terrain normal mapping..

Yellow ground looks good, concrete tiles shouldn't look that bumpy imo

it was just test.
As far as I remember, in game it looked same as in 3ds max but there was some impact on performance that I-Nod was too lazy to fix, so he delayed the work on it.
I still have those tangent normal maps.
Anyway, I think it doesn't matter now.

I want to ask devs about one thing.. Will you integrate, fix and improve I-Nod's code of normal mapping support into the new releases? or just leave it for nothing?

Where is it located at ?
