September 21, 201411 yr Hi I was little bit confused why the fog in my new installation V2.3 is blue. In V2 it was white. Does anybody have the same? Cheers Zeli
September 21, 201411 yr Yep. I had it while flying in Ecuador. I thought I was flying over a lake for a minute there.
September 21, 201411 yr Author here I have posted the screenshot: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/451887-blue-fog-in-prepar3d-v23/
September 22, 201411 yr Author LUKLA Do you also feel its blue? it looks not so blue as mine . Is there some setting in *.cfg to make it less blue? I use HDR as well, and REX4 Direct for clouds and sky color. (P.S. how to attach picture on the topic? I tried everything)
September 22, 201411 yr Upload your photo to Photobucket.Get (copy) a Shared Link (IMG) of your photo and post the link here. Your DropBox link can be posted here also. Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW
September 22, 201411 yr I'm seeing this also. I use REX4 for clouds & ASD for weather & have seen this twice recently, & it covered the whole area as though a low visibility issue more so than fog. Only lasted for a minute or so then cleared.

September 23, 201411 yr Both the shots (LUKLA and PANC) I put up up should have fog (patches) for the areas I was flying at that time of day (morning / season .. and it looked about right for me. A little bit of blue ... true ... but ok. Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW
September 23, 201411 yr The blue I saw is a recent experience & looks far from natural. Also it covered the ground & ocean as far as I could see & I was at 20,000 odd feet.

September 23, 201411 yr Ross, Did you do a screenshot? I do not use REX4. What is ASD (for weather)? Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW
September 23, 201411 yr That's odd. I have a similar problem only my fog is red(!). If I set visibility below a mile, it looks like I'm flying on Mars during a dust storm.
September 23, 201411 yr Commercial Member I had an issue like this in FSX a few months ago and it was because a sky theme in REX 4 installed fog as blue. I just chose a paler colour for the sky and the fog is now back, appearing as white. So if you're using any external weather program, pick a different theme and see if that helps. TFDi Design

I changed the "day" sky texture color in REX (f..ing) 4 , and now the fog has another (greenish) colour. But much better then before.
September 23, 201411 yr I'm guessing that that this has something to do with having cloud reflections (and not shadows) option turned on in P3d. I've noticed that on an overcast day, with cloud reflections on, the apparent color of inland waterbodies looks different and that result is probably realistic.
