You might want to use the fog available command to check and see if fog will work on your hardware.

I note that your fog distance is 10 in the example, which seems a little "close" to me. Try making it bigger.

Any truly great code should be indisguishable from magic.

oh well umm.. I was thinking somewhere in the neighborhood of 1000 to 5000 actually. You might get away with a 500 value, but I've never tested that. You should probably try that fog available command and see if your card supports it, cus if it still is not working there is something a-miss.

thanks but the fog command works except it only shows up on the ball, not the terrain. i know that it can show up on the terrain because i got it to work before.

hmm.. how odd. Even the basic tank demo has fog that affects the terrain. so I have no clue as to what's happening for you! They tell me the fog value of 5000 is the normal camera range... so why yours is not "over" the terrain has me stumped.

Sorry.
